Center stage in Waldorf Astoria's suite of lavish dining spaces, this red-blooded steakhouse from New York peddles premium-grade beef with all the trimmings. Steaks, seafood towers and other no-nonsense staples arrive from an open kitchen to beautifully appointed dining booths that sit beneath a quilted Thai-pattern ceiling.

Centrally located in the CBD, Bull & Bear is just a short hop away for most execs and finance types (hence the name) working in the area. The cozy ambience is just perfect for chilling out after hours or that quiet business tête-à-tête. Head here with your co-workers after work for their happy hour promotions on house pours and beers.
