"Lunchtime visit for 4.warm welcome from staff who showed us to table for 6 so plenty room to spread out, by the window so great views of the Thames. Quickly offered water, left for few minutes to ponder menu, water served, questions about menu explained, order taken and wine delivered. Waitress very friendly, attentive and professional. Starters served after about 10 minutes which left time to chat, admire views. Parsnip and apple soup was lovely, 2 of had Bavette steak, winter greens and frites served hot, good amount of steak which was very tasty and fat/rustle free.Asked for time before dessert served, Eton Mess and Orange cake well recommended.Thoroughly enjoyed our food, great place for lunch.Understand restaurant to close for two months at beginning of January for Rick Stein makeover, will be interesting to see changes made, new menu and how different the Depot will be when reopens."
