"I was very excited to try the famous cipriani restaurant. my mother was a regular customer a few years ago and she spoke so much of it, remembered both the eating and the staff in so detail and had even met the owner who sounded. very friendly and kept his facility on a very high standard. the eating was average, absolutely overpriced and she was shocked to see the difference in the service between now and then, and I was extremely disappointed by the behavior of the waiter on our table. we were asked to wait for our table, although our friend had mobility problems and they were aware of it. the atmosphere was quite loud, as the waiter took our order, he had to lean on to hear what we said was perfect. when I ordered, I was sure that the appetiser, but thought it right, first a question about the risotto of the day and the other pornstar I was interested in, and one of the two was the same question asked another person of our table. he replied that the dame has already asked me the same question and I just replied sorry, I could not listen to her conversation, although I had no obligation to say that or do that. when he explained, I told him the court that I had decided and then moved on to order my appetit to which he asked, this is her main course, I answered no, I would like this as my appetizer, to which he replied they always begin from top to bottom, never from bottom to top meaning they never start from their main and then order their appetizer. this was said in such a repulsive and aggressive way that I was actually shocked, but he quickly moved to the next person and I thought it was best to leave. my friend looked at the weeping list and asked if they had a certain whisky to which he answered no, we did not. if they were the whisky menu, not the wine menu that he disappeared and never brought, we had to ask another waitress who kindly informs us that they actually have it and brought us the whisky list themselves. when everyone had the appetit, he brought me the wrong one. I told him politely that this was not the praised court that I had ordered to answer that this is the one you showed me in such an rude tone and resurrected. that is impossible, because the court I showed him was the one he brought me to the menu. the cherry above was the fact that he did not remove the wrong appetit from the bill and I had to ask to remove it. this is absolutely unacceptable for such an expensive restaurant that has long been here. I will never really understand what such people are right to behave on these wise and how management allows this. this is the only reason why no one is visited by our table again and it is really a scandal in view of its long history. ps: we found out this morning that they put rest of another table in the Takeaway bag we demanded. this device is really the epitome of catastrophe and a spirit of pastness!"

"Having stayed and eaten at a number of Intercontinental hotels and always been impressed, I decided to book Sunday brunch at Park Lane for Father’s Day. It sounded good and varied when booking but when we arrived, the restaurant was somewhat underwhelming (poor decor, dimly lit and not at all fitting of a 5* hotel as was the salad and cold buffet. At £70 a head I would have expected far more variety and a higher quality of produce. The bread rolls were cold and relatively tough (and not with the salad buffet at all but with the sweet buffet! Our waiter was very pleasant but clearly new to the role and not particularly responsive. The beef wellington was delicious and the star of the show and for a buffet the vegetables and roast potatoes were well cooked but the chicken looked unappealing and I would have expected whole chickens roasted and served rather than rather pale and unappealing thighs on a heated trolley for a five star hotel. The sweet section was okay but all very cake based and the cheese was again somewhat standard and without crackers, chutney/qunice or fruit. At an additional £8 a coffee, I felt ripped off for what was standard filter coffee at best and £8 for a small Diet Coke also felt steep. At almost £300 for two adults and two children it massively failed to reach expectations and I am unlikely to return to the hotel for any of its dining options in the future as a result. A real disappointment sadly and a waste of money. There are many, many far better options in London for a fraction of the cost…."

"Went here for an impromptu meal for my birthday. The restaurant was empty 3 waiting staff and 2 chefs standing around. We were shown to our table and given a menu. We both have allergies and enquired about the contents of a couple of dishes, we asked if the meals contained onions, to which we were told they didn 't know the ingredients of the dishes. We asked them to check the chef and they didn 't know either. They said it 's all pre prepared and just shrugged. So we aim to order what could be best predicted not to contain onions. Cheesy garlic bread for instance , 10 mins later, I 'm served a dark coloured garlic bread. We try to find staff eventually we get someone to come over and ask what has been served, a cheese and balsamic onion garlic bread , and the manager stated I thought it was ' just you with the issue '. Honestly everything was too much bother, she was fed up when talking, huffing and thrusting a card machine at the end of the meal. No thank you nothing. Mistakes happen fine Mistakes with allergies can be fatal at least apologize. Customer service can go a long way to setting the scene. Dietary restrictions: Food is pre prepared and staff have little to no knowledge about the food they are serving. They didnt ask about allergies as per policy and when offered this information made to feel it was an us issue. They may be aware of common allergies I cannot comment) but beyond this they didn 't want to know. Wheelchair accessibility: There is only a step entry into the restaurant, so not accessible unless you could pull yourself up the step, the restaurant is quite roomy inside for maneuvering."

"I'm really not one for complaining but my anger at the treatment I received in this restaurant is such that I feel I need to vent it as much as possible and let anybody considering eating here know how the management feel about paying customers. We came here with friends to celebrate our engagement and had a very pleasant lunch with great service. Then after we had paid we were approached by the manager and very rudely told we really had to leave now as he needed the table. We had no prior request to do so but we eat out all the time and are well aware that this is often asked of diners. Do not have a problem with this. Where my problem lies is the way we were spoken to and humiliated in front of a busy restaurant. He then went on to call us liars, argued with us and his response when we said we wouldn't be back was well don't be back We were basically dumped onto the pavement after paying for lunch. I hate having to complain and I'd rather fix problems when they occur but there was no talking to this arrogant little man. I read reviews all the time to make restaurant choices and I hope the management of this place realise that if you treat customers in such a shocking way that we can actually do something about and make others aware of what to expect. There is a vast array of other dining options in Glasgow so choose wisely and give your hard earned money to people who work for it and truly appreciate your custom."
