"After a visit to the cinema with friends i decided to choose The Hudson for a late Sunday lunch. The reasons for doing so were twofold. One the last time we were there was pre pandemic and the other one of our party is vegetarian...and the menu on line gave a couple of choices which is much better than some places. On arrival we were given a choice of tables and whilst choosing drinks and food we were offered and accepted a jug of tap water. We choose our drinks which were delivered quickly and the food order was taken by a very friendly and bubbly waitress who helped to make the experience really fun. The portions were very generous and the vegetables very fresh and cooked to perfection. Apparently the vegetarian Thai curry was also very tasty. We would have loved a desert but were all full so we took a break before finishing with another drink. Overall the experience was really good and the staff were all very friendly and engaging. The place is very well appointed and quiet allowing you to have and hear conversations you have at the table, Worth a visit."

"I visited last night with my wife. We were very kind and polite with them, basically in a very nice mood. We were given a small lovely 2 seat table at the edge of the restaurant. 1. The hostess informed us that the Tagine was better than the tagines from Agadir in Morocco. We actually had visited a great little authentic place in a village outside of Agadir which was absolutely delicious, so although we were a little skeptical her confidence made us very excited and looking forward to ordering tagines. The waitress was very cheerful and friendly. 2. The menu was different to the menus which they have on both the Internet and their own website. Still, we ordered lamb tagine, and lamb shank (the fish tagine was not available . 3. LAMB TAGINE: absolutely disgusting. The 2 prunes and some almonds would suggest a certain flavour of dish, however the bland lamb (apart from the over peppering which choked and lingered in the throat sitting in a puddle of water drowned everything away. It tasted like water was poured onto the dish moments before serving. 4. LAMB SHANK: this was half decent. over spiced though. The lentils in the dish were like an Indian dish, so if you want a middle eastern lamb shank mixed with lentils from an Indian restaurant then you may like. 5. We arrived at 7:30pm. At 8:40pm, after the waitress offered to bring over the deserts menu and while she was getting it, the waiter gave us our bill and shoved the card machine in my face. At that moment the restaurant was half full (or empty! , however he instructed us to pay as they apparently had a booking. It seemed that despite the restaurant having ample empty tables, they needed our small 2 seater table-which was beside 2 other (empty! 2 seater tables. I informed him that the waitress is expecting us to order desert, yet he didn’t seem to care and just wanted us gone. Even though my wife was less than half way through finishing her drink. The waitress arrived with our deserts menu, which the waiter didn’t seem to care. NOTE: They add a 12.5% service charge to the bill. This is optional for the customer, however they casually include it when punching in the bill amount in the machine. 6. We took our half finished drink to the bar as the waitress told us to have our desert and tea there. Sadly the whole bar area smells of the toilet which is nearby. So while we were deciding to sit away from the toilet, the hostess approached us and very rudely told us to quickly decide and sit down. I am so glad I decided to leave. Their bad service, terrible food, and smelly bar fortunately didn’t ruin our day. We continued our night in the west end laughing about this experience. Swearing to never eat there ever again. But skeptical and gobsmacked about some of Levant and Kenza’s (same restaurant, different name and location positive reviews. Hope this review helps people to avoid wasting their money. Ps. £3.95 for a small glass of flat, watered down coke!"

"I ordered delivery from this restaurant at midday today. The food did not arrive until 2.40pm. The chicken in the chicken burgers was not sufficient to fill the buns. They made a mistake with the toastie filling, so I called them and they said they would send a replacement. At 3.20pm, the manager called my house and initially said the replacement was on its way. However, he then became aggressive towards my partner, raising his voice and interrupting him. He blamed everything but his own business for the delay and errors, even blaming us despite living within the delivery area and paying £3 for delivery. It is now 4.55pm and the replacement toastie still has not arrived. I paid for something I never received and received abusive behavior from the owner. I will not be returning to this place as the customer service is terrible. I am now uncomfortable knowing that this angry man has my phone number and address."

"A wonderful restaurant with a really great special offer fixed price menu plus glass of excellent Cuidad Real wine. The Spanish waiters and Maitre D' were excellent friendly, helpful and attentive without being overly so. Really this restaurant as always in our experience delivers excellence and deserves its reputation. It is not in the most popular of locations but is really conveniently placed for easy access for get togethers with people coming from north, west and south London."

"Good overall though not sure the score will reflect. Food was good, well seasoned and portioned service was good but got slower as the meal day worn on (we were perhaps the last of the lunch time eaters) two adult main meals, two kids meals, 3 soft drinks and 1 large glass of wine, 2 deserts and 2 coffees. I’d expect to pay around 60 maybe 70. Bill including service came to nearer 90 needless to say that’s quite a lot for a small family outing at least more than I’d anticipated. Ah well for around the 50/60 mark they get a repeat customer, a little too expensive for what it was, nice but pricey."

"The decor is absolutely stunning, and the food is fantastic. The Lotus Chaat (contains gluten, milk, mustard, and wheat) is a modern twist on the classic Indian street snack, featuring crispy Eastern lotus, kale, pink daikon, and pomegranate. It's priced at £11.50. The Thai Sweet Corn Cakes (contains gluten and soya) are golden-fried corn cakes prepared in a traditional Thai style and served with sweet chili sauce; these are available for £9.50. The Butter Chicken Tikka Kofta (contains milk, mustard, gluten, eggs, and sunflower) features crispy panko-coated croquettes filled with butter chicken and cheddar, accompanied by turmeric-infused mayonnaise. Next, we have the RIB-LETS (contains gluten and soya), which are succulent short-cut lamb ribs that are slow-cooked, supposedly with star anise. Priced at £16.50, they are a must-try. The Pulled Nalli Gosht Masala Hot Dog (contains milk, gluten, sunflower, and mustard) features spiced lamb meat nestled in a hot dog bun, served with traditional piccalilli sauce for £12.50. Finally, the Duck Boti Kebab (contains mustard, sunflower, and sesame) consists of duck breast marinated in spices and cooked on skewers, served with a cherry and ginger chutney for £12.50. Overall, this place offers a delightful dining experience!"

"the family called tired and hungry. we ordered 3 lasagna and drinks. they were disgusting! 2 were burned and the other, while they were not burned disgusting! the excuse of the cook was oh, yours was frozen before he heated them. where did they get the cook? the manager (nice guy) said we should have been refunded, but never a refund spent! we have completed the customer form to give feedback and send herrn J.Hutson by email. we don't think it's really important to them! jd wetherspoon they have lost a customer who has visited their pubs several times, but will not visit one of their spatialities again."

"Not family friendly, apparently no kids menu, pathetic management who couldn’t even be bothered to deal with initial issues, this was pre booked but no clue about booking despite deposit taken, then to top it all, charged incorrectly. The worst."

"The restaurant is very nicely decorated but the food and service do not match to that experience. We were sat so close to other people on other tables it was like were dining with them. We attended pre concert and chose the concert menu. The appetisers came within minutes of ordering, there wasn't a lot for the price. The mains we had to wait over 45 minutes for which was not good and we kept being told it was on the way. The food when it came was average curry really. It had obviously been cooked in a huge batch as it was on the set menu so not sure why it took so long. The service was not great...we were never asked if the food was ok or if we wanted another drink. We only had Coke and this was rather expensive at £3 for a tiny bottle.... Overall i think the place is very nice but the food was average at best and the service poor. The set menu was £25 per person which was not value for what you actually got. We saw a 10% service charge on our bill which we asked to be removed. Tried it, but wouldn't go back again."

"Waitress was lovely and pleased to see several vegan choices on the menu. Was disappointed though when both main courses came minus an element chips with the burger and kofta with the curry. (Manager did come over and explain that kofta wasn't vegan despite it saying menu that dish was veggie and dairy free and offered an alternative but partner's meal was then ready so didn't want to hold up the meal so declined. Both meals really tasty and obviously freshly prepared. However menus both a bit unclean smear of chocolate (I hope on front of drinks menu. Overall quite underwhelmed with the experience."

"we were not impressed by missoula and were actually disappointed as they were recommended to us. we visited the hottest day of the year so far and their air conditioning was only not on kratzer. we could not sit outside if we wanted because they had no sunshades for shadows and the outside was not well presented. we sat inside, up on the back when they tried to find the coolest place they could, but really this was only dark, lacking ambiente and was still too warm. we had booked an early table when we were in a matinee in the theater when we arrived the restaurant was quite empty, but they said we had to sit at the bar, because he was not sure whether the waitress was back from their break, I don't need to know that only poor service! we then ordered a drink and when our table was ready, nobody offered to wear our drinks upstairs. eating was ok, nothing special and one of the dishes we ordered was not correctly described on the menu and was actually powdered on bread. the service during the meal was basic with much to reach over people's sleep, a not very friendly server and no attention or discernment to serve. the bathroom were absolutely boiling, almost sauna, as they really had thought before and fans or got something, it was terrible. a very average experience."

"We were not impressed by Missoula and were actually disappointed as they were recommended to us. We visited on the hottest day of the year so far and their air conditioning was just not up to scratch. We also couldnt have sat outside if we wanted to because they had no umbrellas for shade and the outside area was not presented well. We were seated inside, upstairs at the back as they were trying to find the coolest place they could but really this was just dark, lacked ambience and was still too warm. We had an early table booked as we had been to a matinee at the theatre at when we arrived the restaurant was pretty much empty yet they said we needed to sit at the bar as he wasnt sure if the waitress was back from her break I don't need to know this, just poor service! We then ordered a drink and when our table was ready no one offered to help carry our drinks upstairs. The food was ok, nothing special and one of the dishes we ordered was no described correctly on the menu and was actually prawns on bread. The service during the meal was basic with lots of reaching over people to serve dishes, a not very friendly server and no attention or consideration. The bathrooms were absolutely boiling, almost sauna like they really should have thought ahead and got fans or something, it was awful. Overall a very average experience."

"I had a very disappointing experience. I made a reservation at the restaurant, but when I arrived, I found it closed for a private event. It was nearly impossible to find another place to eat, so I ended up inviting my friends back to my house for takeaway pizza instead. If the restaurant had updated its status to indicate it was closed, I could have made different plans. Overall, it was quite frustrating."

"You’ve got home, you’ve got the office, this is your ‘third place’ for work, play and everything in between. We have the space, flexibility and hospitality to look after you for anything at any time; from 8am to 11.30pm every day. So say the folk at Charlotte’s W5. Since one of last year’s best and unexpected treats was lunch at Charlotte’s Place I was curious to find out how they fared. Charlotte’s are a small group of local eateries owned by Alex Wreetham. I’m sure every one of them would become firm favourites if I happened to live in West London still. Instead I’ve moved South of the River and going West is something of an excursion. Worth it though, to find W5 kitchen, the latest member of Charlotte’s group."

"Charlottes W5 used to be one of our favourite places to eat and to entertain friends but recently things seem to have gone a bit wrong here. When we arrived we were told that most of the fresh fish dishes were not available because the supplier had not delivered possibly a worrying sign?The sweet potato gnocchi were not good, the other mains were ok. The service however was very patchy and not up to standard for the prices they charge, in my opinion. it wasn't busy but we had to attract attention to order and ask for the drinks menu twice. Chips were forgotten, coffee was forgotten, the staff looked harassed. On the plus side, the starters arrived promptly and were good (although for some reason the Caesar salad was not available? Odd) and the waitress offered a free pudding in exchange for one plate of uneaten gnocchi. We may return ourselves but regrettably I don't think we'll be taking the chance of inviting friends there again."

"Went for lunch and found that the food and service was of high quality. They catered for my wife who has an egg allergy and even discounted her food which is unheard of, in these times. The staff were very friendly and professional and although the Sunday menu is limited (understandable due to the pandemic), the food was great and good value for money. They also had a live musician who was brilliant. We will book again and try the more varied menu in the near future. Also the location is a few minutes from Regents park and ideal for a lovely stroll afterwards. finally, thank you to the staff and management for making it a lovely experience at THE NEW INN."

"The restaurant has been closed for months. If I had to rate it, I wouldn't give it any stars as that would better reflect its current status. My partner, who was looking forward to dining at her favorite restaurant, was disappointed when we traveled a long distance only to find it closed on her birthday."
