"I booked Bill 's Covent Garden well in advance for my 50th birthday meal. There were 11 of us altogether. We left our unfinished cocktails at Tequila Mockingbird in order to get to Bill 's in time for our booking at 7.30pm. We arrived in time and were told that the table was not ready and to wait outside. We waited for 30 minutes during that time no one came out to update us on what was happening. When a member of our party asked when our table would be ready and explained that it was for a special occasion the manager said and I quote 'Everyone here is special '. We were not implying that we were more special than other diners, only that it was a special occasion and having to wait 30 minutes in the cold with no explanation was not a great start. When we were finally seated we were given no table water until we asked for some 15 minutes after sitting and it took a further 20 minutes for anyone to come over to take our drink order (after having to go and ask! A member of our party spoke to a senior member of staff (unsure if manager or deputy manager about the situation and that what was to be a special occasion was turning into a terrible night. Then the manageress (short blonde hair not sure of name came over and interrupted the conversation, was very rude and aggressive claiming we were being deliberately obtrusive. When we explained how long we had to wait, the lack of awareness and service at our table and that what was to be a special night was being ruined she seemed to calm down and two bottles of complimentary prosecco sent to our table. We then had a further extended wait before our order was taken. Between when we arrived at 7.30 and when we received our food was an hour and a half. The managers left before we asked for the bill and were not around to support the staff when we found discrepancies in the bill. The manageress of this Bill 's was terrible and had an absolute lack of any customer service whatsoever. She would not acknowledge that the long wait times were a problem and in fact implied that we were the problem. The wait staff however were lovely and understanding of our situation. This was a memorable birthday but not in a good way. Avoid."

"My boyfriend and I had an absolutely brilliant evening here for our anniversary last week (mid October). The staff were so friendly and welcoming, and the ambience was just delightful. We arrived an hour earlier than our booking and enjoy some drinks on the roof of the boat. As it wasn't busy, we were able to be seated 15 minutes earlier than our booking which made the night go more smoothly. The food was served quicker than expected (about 15 mins if that), and was all presented very nicely. We ordered several small plates to share. Everything was divine! I would just like to point out for other guests, in case they skim over the menu as we did; the sweet potato chips are HUGE. You only get about 4 or 5 and it looks like the entire sweet potato has been slices long ways with the skin. Yummy but we didn't even eat half so I wouldn't order if you're not absolutely starving. ALSO: the regular chips are cooked in duck fat. As a vegetarian I didn't order this, but I did pinch some of my boyfriend's chips, as every girlfriend does, only to realise a few moments later what I had consumed... again still yummy, but I wish I had known beforehand. Could not boast enough about how amazing all the food was!! The cocktails were delicious. I enjoyed a french martini and a rosemary rush, the latter had a particular kick I'm still mouth watering over even a few days later!! The dessert was impeccable. We got the chocolate ball as did everyone in the restaurant, and it did not disappoint! That was plenty between two people. It's also quite romantic to share too. But being us, we also ordered the yogurt meringue delicious!! As we had such a great conversation with the manager and mentioned it was our anniversary, he didn't charge for our desserts! We were so touched, we are hoping to take some friends back with us soon. Would definitely 1000% recommend this fun little find. Also it is only maybe 10 footsteps from Paddington Station! Definitely a date night to remember."
