"I was here on a date. we asked if we could have drinks at the bar and the manager said yes, while we noticed a table in the restaurant area at the bar and asked a waiter if we were sitting there and. the menu. he said yes, we wanted to order dinner when the manager came and told us we had to go. the table was not reserved as we asked the waiter. After he refused to give an explanation why we could not sit there and order food, he took our drinks and returned them to the bar. not only was this humiliating, but completely unreliable. the manager insulted me when we went out after he refused to give a real explanation for his actions. Maybe he doesn't like black people or gay people or train his staff not right. or maybe all three? here's a photo, if you see him, can you find out?"

"The restaurant has a pleasant atmosphere, but the food was disappointing and the service was slow. We went for a quick lunch during our lunch hour, but ended up waiting 20 minutes just for our drinks, leaving us with only 15 minutes to eat our meal. The menu offers a diverse selection, and my friend's Italian roasted teigcake, called pizza fritta, was very interesting. However, my salad was disappointing with a bland dressing. Overall, we will not be returning to this restaurant."

"Designed like an American restaurant with a mix of booths and tables but it wasnât squashed. The waitress was friendly, professional and helpful. The music wasnât so loud you couldnât hear each other and you didnât feel rushed to finish like some places. The food was really good and the portions were sensible. One of our party had a steak which was over done but when mentioned to the waitress she was very apologetic and reduced the bill to compensate. We all had a great time and left very happy with the service and the food on the whole. I would definitely go back just for lunch or dinner with friends."

"Always a fantastic outing at wagamama: the prices may have inflated since I've last been, but it is 100% worth it for the quality of food you receive; I shared two sides with a friend (calamari and bao buns, my absolute go tos) and for a main had their new special, soba noodles with duck, which came out to £18 and was potentially not as big a portion as I would have liked, but again, it was beyond delicious. £26.50 for myself without tip, worth it for the experience but definitely not an everyday or budget dining option. Cheapest main on the menu was approx £12.50, for those who'd like to know."

"Having made a booking via OpenTable and receiving a confirmation email, 24 hours later had a phone call from Browns to say they could offer me a table at 5pm or 9pm but not at 7pm which was the time of my booking. No apologies just that the way it is. OpenTable just blamed Browns and said I could always phone the restaurant to confirm a booking, not seeing the ridiculousness of that suggestion as it renders their platform to irrelevance. So I am giving an all round one star, but to be clear we did not eat there."

"Honestly this place needs to hire friendlier staff. Two of them were completely unsuitable, especially one of the managers on the floor. Couldn't wait to walk away within seconds of serving the table. I mean when you ask someone how the food is, at least try and pretend you're listening to the answer! When we ask for black pepper....we mean freshly ground pepper....not the cheap stuff you leave on the table. Food took a while to arrive (25mins) when we asked for everything (starters and mains) to come at the same time. I don't know why you get penalised whenever we go for this option but that was a let down. Food was well cooked and enjoyable but the experience was not great. And back to the useless manager when we ask for a receipt after paying with a credit card, we want the credit card receipt not the pre printed bill with the list of items ordered."

"First may I start with Langans in December is one of the best this year I was very disappointed to be literally thrown out of the restaurant along with everyone else for a private party hire they cleared the tables whilst you were sitting at them and I had my chair taken whilst I was getting up!! A few people in the restaurant knew this was happening before their booking but I booked in August and had no idea until I got there where I would have changed my date! The food is ok service and ambience excellent !!! Just left very disappointed I was not warned about the closure"

"The service was quite disappointing. At the beginning of the evening, we informed our waitress that we had tickets for a show at the Royal Albert Hall, and therefore had time constraints. However, despite this, she was very slow in taking our order and serving us. We had a reservation around 6 PM, so the restaurant was quite empty, with only two other tables occupied. By the end of our meal, our bill was incorrect, and we had to send it back for correction. While the food was delicious, the service detracted significantly from the overall dining experience."

"We were drawn in here because it looks so nice and cosy from the outside and appeared busy which is usually a good sign. Waitress took us to a downstairs table straight away but we found it very cold and cellar like down there. No windows to people watch the streets of London. Agree with others, food mediocre and soft drinks way over priced. We asked for vinegar for our chips and waitress brought over balsamic vinegar? When waiter brought over the bill, he stood beside me waiting on payment. I witnessed him earlier do this at another table. This is uncomfortable, usually patrons are left for a few mins to peruse the bill. Shocked to see they add 13.5% service charge. I know this is discretionary, however, highest charge in any London restaurant we visited and service was not fitting of this although I did pay as his closeness felt slightly intimidating. We wouldn't return."

"We had a table for eight for Sunday lunch and decided to go with the set menu, which offered great value at £20 for three courses. There were four options for each course: starters, mains, and desserts. We started with calamari, spicy meatballs, and halloumi. For our main course, everyone chose the sirloin of beef, which was cooked to perfection (medium rare) and came with Yorkshire pudding, roast potatoes, vegetables, and gravy. For dessert, we enjoyed a variety of options including chocolate brownie, Baileys crème brûlée, tiramisu, and panna cotta. The portion sizes were generous, and the drinks were reasonably priced. The restaurant was quite quiet, with only two other tables occupied, but it still had a pleasant atmosphere. The service was outstanding, with very friendly staff. I would definitely recommend this place!"

"It wasn't a great start when we weren't offered a childrens menu for our daughter, when we asked if they had one we were asked her age, she was sat at the table with us and they could clearly see she was of young age. once we ordered it had been 15-20 mins and our drinks hadnt arrived, when we chased it up they hadn't even put the water through. Daughters juice wasn't even chilled and no ice with it. The wine eventually arrived after the starters. No one really asked how the food was, scallops and soup for starter were ok, I has the seafood linguine for main, i can only describe it as too much tomato and lacked any seasoning. They then included £20 service charge, we have no issue with paying it normally if we have received good service, however we asked for it to be taken off considering there was no decent service for the whole meal."

"My evening at the Royal Oak Was pleasant but Service was very slow. Waiting quite a while to be served and when served orders were not out through properly which meant we was waiting for food which we thought had been ordered but it hadn’t. With no app to order off, it was quite hard to get the attention of the staff when the music was quite loud and we was tucked away in the corner so not in eye vision. On the other hand All the staff was lovely and the booking process was easy. Very accommodating."

"As someone who's been attending Hampstead Theatre Club for many decades and eating at Bradleys before (or in the old days after) productions..it has a warm place in my heart. The food is better than ever..we went yesterday after a Hampstead matinee. The restaurant filled up with people going to the evening performance. Once they left we were almost alone and so atmosphere was a bit melancholy. I hope eventually Bradleys will return to staying open late so theatregoers can once again experience the pleasures it has to offer after they've seen a show. For now..grateful it's still there..with that lovely garden visible through the rear window."

"Maybe my expectation for the vegan night the bread street brasserie had risen too high, but I was quite disappointed. for me it seemed very average. I would have been happy if I had found these vegan options on a normal menu, but wanted more of this as we had made a special trip just to try their vegan menu. there were some highlights to eat. our appetizers were both tasty and well presented, my darling bahji and my partner a grilled brot with Mediterranean vegetables. we also had a banan feather roll dessert with date karamell, which was delicious (I will steal the idea and make it myself). my partner had a noodle dish from which his comment on the sauce was that it tasted like a cheap glass sweet and sour. I had a sun-dried tomatenburger who was in order, but the lawn Slave with which it came was bad, tasting nothing but soyyoghurt. I also found it hard to choose three dishes that worked together as a meal, so I feel like the menu is not well thought out. the service was also something missing. the waiting staff was very friendly and helpful, but the headkeeper was really uninterested, bordering on the rude. we came 10 minutes earlier than our table was booked and were released into the bar to wait with the promise that we will be collected when our table was ready. 30 minutes later, he had not yet come to find us, we went to ask again and then sat. not a big thing, but added to the general sense that bread street brasserie vegane night was not the experience we hoped."

"We had. a great welcome this morning. Ang introduced herself and said that she would be our point of contact for our event today. There were 10 of us and we virtually had the first floor to ourselves. Attentive service and everyone was very happy. Ang even noted our member's specific requirements about cooking his traditional breakfast! Thank you."

"I’m a big fan of this restaurant. Pea and fontina fritters were delicious, super crispy squid and a good marguerita pizza though I would have liked a little more topping and a bit less crust. Service was super attentive and charming. When we came in we were tempted by a refreshing goblet of aperol spritz we saw another customer drinking. It was so good I ordered a second which came in a tumbler. Not the same drink at all, the proportions were all wrong. Staff told me they only had 2 goblets and it was ‘ not company policy’ to serve them in the goblets! Really! What a shame as it ruined the drink. The lady on the next table sent her tumbler back, good on her. Please listen to your customers, invest in a few more decent glasses You will sell more if the drink is good and your customers will be happy ."

"Return visit again for another excellent dinner at the Clissold. Cannot fault it. We were greeted warmly greeted like old friends to celebrate my wifes birthday party of 12. We ordered the sharing meze which was tasty and clearly freshly prepared. The items like dips, calamari, haloumi, salads etc arrived first followed by delicious tender kebabs, cutlets and moussaka. Pudding was a homemade apple pie with caramelised icing sugar and vanilla ice cream which was a real treat. Wines including famous Greek red, white and Mastiha afterwards. Everything tasted really fresh. The restaurant is comfortable, we arrived at 6pm and left at 12, the staff charming, helpful and friendly and checking all the time if we have enough and would we like more of anything. I can happily say it is great venue and you will be looked after really well."

"Although most chain restaurants serve okay food, I was disappointed by the quality of the food served here. The restaurant itself is a good size, and being in a part of five we were seated upstairs. There were not many appetizing vegetarian dishes on the menu for a reasonable price so I decided to settle on penne in a garlic sauce. The portion size was decent but my food was bland, and greasy. Could not taste any flavours at all! It was not worth it's price which was around The food was not that great and I would definately not go back again."

"I commiserate with all those at VICINO who were suddenly severely understaffed and thus had to cut back the menu to the bare minimum leaving very little choice for customers. A great pity because normally, VICINO is known for well cooked traditional Italian dishes with a good choice fir everyone. Last night, the choice, the atmosphere and the mood were low. I’m sure it will recover because it is a Fulham staple. Look forward to a recovery"
