"As a regular diner, I was disappointed with the starter I chose at this restaurant. It consisted of an oversized portion of rocket salad with two small slices of smoked salmon and lime cream fraiche. I found it underwhelming, especially considering the price of £8.50. I hope the restaurant can maintain their high standards in the future."

"I came here to celebrate my wife's birthday. It is a nice place. It was my first time trying Beef Wellington, and although the pastry was a bit overdone, the beef inside was good. The gravy was one of the best I've had. My girlfriend really enjoyed her steak as well. The only downside was the slow service and difficulty getting someone's attention. I had booked a 50% off mains deal through OpenTable, but it was not recognized when I arrived. I also felt a bit embarrassed when I asked about it, as sometimes places dispute such offers after you have already ordered. I had also tried to arrange a birthday surprise for my girlfriend with sparklers, but when I asked one of the waiters, they just told us to order dessert and we only got "happy birthday" written on her plate. Overall, the food was good, but the service could be better."

"이 리뷰는 한국어와 영어로 쓰였습니다. This reciew is written in both Korean and English. 포트넘 앰 메이슨 차를 사려고 방문한 곳인데 피카딜리쪽보다 확실히 사람도 적고 조용한 분위기라 편하게 쇼핑할 수 있어요. 그리고 정말 정말 직원분이 친절함!!! 부담가지도 않으면서도 자세히 설명해주고 잘 응대해주셔서 쇼핑하는 내내 매우 기분이 좋았습니다 이름을 못 물어봐서 어떤 직원분인진 모르겠지만 ㅠ 지금까지 돌아다닌 유명한 기념품 쇼핑 플레이스 중에서 그 분 응대가 제일 좋았습니다. 피카딜리쪽보다는 아무래도 관광객이 덜 와서 그런 것 같긴 해요. 차 종류는 제 기억으로는 따로 패키지에 골라서 파는 것 말고 일반 틴케이스로 파는 건 다 있습니다. 특별한 건 여기에서만 파는 royal exchange blend가 있는데 전 royal blend보다 더 맘에 들어서 그걸로 삼 ㅎㅎ 그리고 이 매장이 포트넘 앤 메이슨 매장 중에 가장 최근에 생긴 지점이라네요. 깨끗한 곳에서 비교적 차분하게 쇼핑하실 분은 추천드립니다! I went this place to buy Fortnum Mason tea for presents and this place is definitely better place to buy teas than the one in piccadilly. The staffs here are super friendly which made the whole shopping experience extremly satisfying. It is much less crowded than the piccadilly store so you can take your time. If you are not up to buy the Rare teas which are only offered in individual packaging, you would be able to find everything you want. Also you can buy in individual packaging for normal teas if you want to. It has a special blend named Royal Exchange Blend only sold in this store. I prefer this one to the original royal blend. This store is the latest built one among the Fortnum Masons so it is super clean. I highly recommend this place!!!"

"Lovely lunch for a birthday meal. Fish and chips had a beautiful light batter and fab chunky chips. Pork belly was so tender and just fell apart, my Husband enjoyed every bite. Beef and pancetta burger was also spot on. Service was quick. Good atmosphere and I also bought two amazing sausage rolls to take away. Very keen to return again soon!"

"Food was excellent, server was very nice. Only complaint would be, they allowed customers with two dogs to come in the restaurant and be seated. The dogs barked throughout dinner. Animals (other than service dogs which these pekinese were not) should not be allowed in restaurants. It’s gross"

"We've only been here for drinks in the past, and it's got a very lovely cute yet fancy interior which has a really warm atmosphere. We returned yesterday for a Sunday roast, and we were all gravely disappointed. Meat was flavourless. Roast potatoes were soft and cold. Gravy was watery and weak. Unlimited Yorkshire puddings were indeed unlimited, but they were not Yorkshire puds. You picked it up and it would crumble into sawdust. They tasted and felt like Styrofoam. None of us came close to finishing our meals, despite paying £17 for our dinners. Will not be returning for food ever again. P.S. don't get their Peacock Farm lager, it tastes like Coors light. They have much better real beers and ales on tap."

"Located a short walk from Bayswater station. Fast tasty Iranian food. Fresh salads and many starters. Their chilli sauce is HOT HOT you have been warned. They offer spicy kebab options, but they are not spicy, maybe for the Iranians. Never see chilly on Iranian menu usually this place is a first for me.. Their portion size are on the large size. The ice cream is amazing. Good food and good value."

"Very lovely eatery. The portion sizes are ideal, the food is very flavoursome. They have a good selection of drinks. Above all else, the staff were incredible during our visit. A lovely lady called Samantha looks after the 8 of us is such a courteous and caring manner. Vegetarian options: Vegetarian options are available (but weren't tried by my party) Parking: Over thirty spaces in a private carpark in front of the pub, easily accessible just off the main road. Kid-friendliness: All children are given a kiddies entertainment pack (as per the photo in my review), the staff are so understanding and friendly to the children."

"We visited for a late lunch, and it was good that we could take our dog in. The service was very good, though food choice had limitations for vegetarians. However, we felt uncomfortable during most of our meal, the table we were at, had a...high table for two to our right; fifteen minutes into our visit this high table became occupied. We could hear all conversations, which at times was embarrassing, one, because we felt we were intruding by becoming unintentional eves droppers. Two, because some topics of conversation were of a personal nature. Although we tried to hold conversations, and not focus on the people over our shoulder, this became strenuous while trying to eat our meals. Maybe this one area of seating could be rethought."

"Having regularly eaten at The Talisman for the last 6 years I was really disappointed with my experience this time, the service was quite poor, drinks were wrong, waitress seemed to have difficulty in understanding us , we were never offered desserts even half an hour after finishing our meal and had to ask for the dessert menu when we were offered coffee. The waitress just was not very attentive, we often ran out of drinks and werent offered more. The chocolate fondue dessert was awful, watery chocolate is not a fondue! Worst experience i've had here. Will not be eating here again for a while, will still to just drinking there."

"After days of waiting to get a seat in there, I was amused by the high quality food and astounding service. Before jumping into the review, a huge shoutout for our waitress Ellie for being so kind, funny and lovely. For the food, appetisers were ravioli, burrata, fried shrimp and rocket salad. All were soooo good especially the fried shrimp(so crispy #dying). For mains we ordered the US sirloin and US fillet which both were so tender and tasty. The goodman burger was so good as well but I didn 't like the fries that came with it. The mac and cheese was delicious but was a bit heavy. For desserts, we ordered tiramisu which so full of coffe, my mouth was dry after that. I didn 't like the tiramisu tbh. The cookie sundae , on the other hand, was quite the thing, it was delicious."

"What an unpleasant experience! This was once a good venue with excellent food, polite staff and generally clean and tidy. But now the staff obviously don't care and can't be bothered to be courteous. The food is very poor and certainly not value for money. The windows, the floor, the carpets and.the upholstery are filthy. I didn't have the courage to use the toilets, my life is too valuable. The tables are sticky and not wiped down. And there were more badly behaved, barking dogs than customers. Why do they let dogs sit on the chairs, probably why the upholstery is so unpleasant. There was a time that you had to book to eat at The Boathouse and we took friends there, but we wouldn't expose people we like to The Boathouse's poor food, duty and general lack of care and hygiene. Definitely a venue to avoid, which is a shame because the location is fantastic."

"I would recommend that everyone eat at Dalston Jazz bar for the simple reason that every terrible restaurant you visit throughout the rest of your life will seem better by comparison. We walked in and were confronted with a decor that was presumably aiming for shabby chic but had instead landed squarely on skanky tetanus. We took a table at the back after being told that the one free at the front was reserved. Fair enough. We then splashed out the eminently reasonable price of £32 for 2 pints, a single vodka and (flat) coke and a cosmopolitan so sweet I can only assume they got the cranberry juice mixed up with the Vimto. For some reason all drinks had to be paid for immediately rather than being added to your bill presumably because so many people walk out. Words cannot describe the quality of our waiter at least not words I can write here. When he eventually took our food order he explained that it was a 'pay what you want ' restaurant, before immediately contradicting himself by informing us that each dish held a minimum 'donation ' of £15. What about the foccaccia? I dared to ask. £15 I was informed. Deciding to forgo the world 's most expensive bread we went for the prawns. They had the taste and texture of rubber covered in warm sweet chilli sauce. The chef had taken the unusual step of placing these on top of the crispy salad leaves, making them somewhat less crispy. The accompanying dish of a 'fishcake ' was, in reality, a pile of overcooked mash stuffed with the sweepings of the kitchen, some of which were presumably piscine in nature. The night culminated when the waiter, despite our protests, insisted we move to the long table he had originally said was reserved. Apparently the people who had booked it had cancelled, but our table was reserved (something he hadn 't previously mentioned). We arrived at the already packed long table to find there were only 2 seats for the 4 of us. No problem for our suddenly industrious waiter, who made everyone else shove along until we were so packed that the meaning of an 'intimate dinner ' threatened to take on a whole new meaning."

"We went here for a business lunch. It may be bad luck with the dishes that the three of us ordered, but we all went for the lamb as a main course, which was frankly very disappointing. The lamb came in small pieces (say was thoroughly overcooked (totally brown). We were all looking forward to a nicely cooked piece of lamb that was pink, but this looked like it was just diced up and fried. Not good cookery. Our starters and desserts were not terrible, but certainly not great either (probably lower quality to most supermarket desserts). Perhaps the chef was having a bad day, but otherwise I cannot fathom why anyone is rating this restaurant highly (although the location is lovely, and the decor also is nice and festive). Service was good too. Overall I am glad I was not paying!"

"It’s rare to find a restaurant that is perfect for solo dining, hanging out with friends, or going on a date. The open layout features a section that is slightly elevated, creating distinct areas where different groups can enjoy a cozy atmosphere reminiscent of a living room, while still being private enough for comfortable conversation without having to shout. The quality of the food is impressive; for vegetarians, the menu is quite accommodating, as many Mediterranean restaurants often lack meat and dairy options. I have to rave about their small dishes – they are absolutely delicious! The wine selection is excellent in terms of quality, and the staff is always ready to offer suggestions and assistance whenever needed. I've only been there twice, but I'm definitely going back!"

"We had read reviews of La Casa and were not disappointed. The food was lovely, authentic and very tasty, portions generous- we had a mix of vegetarian and meat Mezze, and the lamb cops with rosemary potatoes, orange cake and crema catalana for dessert. Service was friendly and swift. Recommend booking ahead, especially during festival season."
