This November, a new steakhouse and lounge will be opening in Hull, offering a focus on locally sourced Yorkshire produce, cocktails on the rooftop, and scenic riverside views in the Witham area.
One Steakhouse & Lounge will occupy a distinctive 1930s building and provide seating for 200 guests, spread across a restaurant and cocktail bar. The building, familiar to those passing North Bridge, has been vacant for nearly ten years, but will soon be restored to its former glory.
The revamped interior includes lavish ground-floor seating, a more intimate mezzanine, and a rooftop bar overlooking the river.
Edison Motina, co-owner of One Steakhouse & Lounge, commented: “When I first saw the interior, I knew it had the potential to be a really vibrant place. The building has seen Hull through thick and thin and remains a key piece of the area’s history. It only felt right to show it the love it deserves and allow people from the present day to continue enjoying it.”
The menu will focus on delivering exceptional-quality, locally sourced produce with a Mediterranean twist. Diners can choose from starters such as king scallops with belly pork, goat’s cheese served with roasted peppers and balsamic reduction, and shell-on tiger prawns cooked in garlic, chilli, and herb butter.
The centrepiece of the menu will be the premium selection of 32-day dry-aged steaks, sourced from Yorkshire farms. This will include sharing cuts such as tomahawk and porterhouse, as well as individual options like ribeye, T-bone, and fillet.
Edison added: “We decided early on to only serve locally sourced Yorkshire meat, which is something that is incredibly important to us. Our main aim has always been to offer the finest, freshest produce whilst supporting and celebrating our local farmers. I’m really proud of the menu our chefs put together.”
To accompany the meals, there will also be an extensive list of artisanal cocktails and wines.
One Steakhouse & Lounge will officially open on Friday, 1st November with a VIP launch night, followed by a public opening the next day. The restaurant and bar will operate daily, and reservations can be made through the website. For more information, visit onesteakhouse.co.uk.
