Lutyens

➤ 85 Fleet St London, EC4Y 1AE, United Kingdom

Wine • Bars • French • British

"Thank you Lutyens for another excellent lunch. My sister who joined me as my guest had a broken foot and the manager and staff were most accommodating in finding a box to stand it on so it was raised. The Dover sole is always very good but as a beer drinker could they stock Birra Moretti as well as Peroni as the former is much nicer and it's what the Italians drink!"

Franco's

➤ 61 Jermyn Street London, SW1Y 6LX, SW1Y 6JH, United Kingdom

Beer • Wine • Casual • Italian

"This restaurant was extremely loud for the price you pay. It was difficult to have a conversation because the tables were too close together. When paying a premium for a meal, I expect better ambiance. The service was subpar, with the staff appearing stressed or indifferent. I had to flag down the waiter to place my order, as he left before I could order my side dish. However, the food was of good quality, so credit to the chef for that."

Poets House

➤ 40 -44 ST MARY'S STREET Ely, Cambridgeshire CB7 4EY, United Kingdom

Sushi • Pizza • Asiatic • Seafood

"“The Peckham Spring” The heading will become apparent later in this review. On the 22nd September, we had a table booked for 4, it was both couples weeding anniversary’s. We arrived 20mins early to have a drink in the bar. This was the point when we should of left. Ordering 4 drinks from exceptional young an inexperienced staff was a challenge. The drinks took ages to be made (at this point there was only 2 other guests in there). 3 cocktails and a beer, all of the cocktails were spilt by the waitress on serving and were not made correctly. At the table, We ordered wine and still water (bottled). This is where the heading for this review arrives from. This restaurant, (I use that terminology loosely), severs “tap water” in mineral water bottles and chargers £5.00 for it. (Del Boy must be running this joint)! We have been fortunate to have traveled far and wide in this country and abroad and never come across this deceitful act which is inessential fraud and theft. You may ask why do we “assume “ this?, well firstly Ely water has a distinct taste and secondly the bottle was open prior to arriving at the table and they had filled it right to the top! Shame on you Poets House. So on to the food, 4 starters, all below average. 4 mains, that all being sirloin steaks. My “plate of food” was probably the absolute worst dish I have ever had presented in front of me. A side salad straight out of a bag, un washed or dressed, a cold mushroom which wasn’t seasoned or warm, a steak which hadn’t been seared or cooked correctly to medium rare and was completely un edible and wouldn’t cut with a steak knife. This was accompanied with a bucket of chips which was dripping in oil. The only positive part to this review is that the waiter who served us is the only asset this establishment has. I voiced all of this to the said gentleman on the evening, and what was disheartening was that he total agreed with everything we mentioned. The owners, the management and the (cook) (as they don’t have a chef), need to be educated by their waiter if they have any chance of this establishment improving. In conclusion to this review, I strongly advise anyone looking for a decent plate of food to avoid booking the Poets House,Ely."

Sky Lounge, Shangri-la The Shard, London

➤ 31 St Thomas StreetSE1 9QU, London, United Kingdom

Tea • Wine • Asian • Chicken

"This a wonderful experience except the service is absolutely terrible I cannot understand why in a super luxury hotel and a top environment that was reasonably full, one is essentially ignored by staff who mostly were standing around or talking to each other It was appalling."

Blue Door Bistro

➤ Montague Hotel15 Montague Street, London, United Kingdom

Soup • British • European • Bar-lounge

"We were the only ones in the patio and yet it took 30' to get our food (5 of us). When we asked for clarifications on the menu such as ingredients of the accompanying sauce for the salad or which ones were the seasonal vegetables, she couldn't answer. While we appreciated to be left alone, we were literally left alone. While they had an internal lunch going on at the opposite side and they were all focused on it. Food was great though and I appreciated they had gluten free bread for me."

Montague Ski Lodge

➤ 15 Montague Street London, WC1 5BJ, WC1B 5BJ, United Kingdom

Beer • Wine • Hotels • Casual

"We had a wonderful evening at this restaurant. The food was fantastic, the service was excellent, and the atmosphere was beautiful. We chose to dine here because it was close to our hotel, and we are so happy we did. The cocktails were great, and our starters of crab ravioli and chicory and gorgonzola salad were delicious. Our main courses of chicken breast and spatchcock poussin were outstanding. We also enjoyed a lovely bottle of Chablis with our meal. We highly recommend this restaurant and plan on returning before we leave London."

Signor Sassi

➤ 14 Knightsbridge Green Knightsbridge London, SW1X 7QL, SW1X 7PA, United Kingdom

Pasta • Steak • Italian • Seafood

"The food was incredible and the service was excellent. I ordered the shrimp appetizer and the filet Signor Sassi, both of which were delicious. I particularly enjoyed the parmesan cheese and olives that were served before the meal instead of bread. It was a great option for someone like me who cannot eat bread or wheat products."

German Gymnasium Grand Cafe

➤ 1 Kings Boulevard Kings Cross London, N1C 4BU, United Kingdom

German • Coffee • Drinks • Chicken

"Have been here before, and it's a great location, with a nice atmosphere. Enjoyed a few weisbeers and some tasty food with a couple of old friends on a pleasant Friday evening. The staff were friendly, helpful and polite, even when asking us to move to another table to finish our drinks outside after we'd eaten, so they could prepare the table for the next service. One of our waiters followed up within a couple of minutes to return my phone to me which I'd left on my chair, which was very much appreciated. Will definitely come back again, and recommend it."

Beer • Wine • Steak • Tapas

"This was our first time visiting this restaurant . We booked for lunch being midweek it was quiet so we can’t fairly comment on what the ambience would be in evening. But….. fantastic food we sampled six tapas dishes and each of them had superb taste. And the service was excellent. We will certainly be back with the rest of our friends and family in tow !"

The Tilbury

➤ 1 Watton Road Datchworth, Hertfordshire SG3 6TB, East Hertfordshire, United Kingdom

Pubs • Beer • Wine • Steak

"Ventured to the Tilbury for Sunday lunch. We'll worth the visit. 3 roast dinners that were exceptional and the beer battered halloumi fries which was scrumptious. We also had the lovely calamari for a starter. No small plates of food here, ample helpings for the hungry. Great attentive staff, very helpful and extremely polite. Yes it's a little pricey, but we came away feeling we had excellent value for money. Great venue!! A great quality restaurant in a pub setting. Absolutely nailed it!"

O Monte

Cafés • Seafood • European • Fast Food

"I chose 1 serving of picanha £14.95 very poor service but fries came to the table and 1 serving of Alentejo pork only 3 clams had the insides the rest were shells £14.95 I won't go back to this restaurant one of the worst restaurants I've visited in 8 years living in the UK."

The White Hart

➤ 2 Prospect Place Welwyn, Hertfordshire AL6 9EN, AL6 9EW, WELWYN, United Kingdom

Pizza • Cafés • Mexican • Seafood

"Great old coaching inn with excellent food at reasonable prices. We enjoyed a Sunday roast here in early June. Service was friendly and efficient. We enjoyed the asparagus starter and the roast beef main too full to take a dessert! The roast beef was absolutely delicious. We would certainly recommend the White Hart for lunch if you're in the area."

The Drapers Arms

➤ United Kingdom, N1 1ER, London

Pubs • Fish • Meat • Steak

"Very good food, definitely a step above the standard gastro pub food in London. Friends had the shared steak (looked great) and we shared the pie and the duck. Very clearly this place is not just serving the classics and instead gives variety to its accompaniments, which coupled with well executed meats sets them apart from most. The venue was nice, if not quite similar to competitors in the area and Good crowd for a Saturday. If I was to find a flaw, the bar service could definitely be better. Not rude, just a bit slow and disinterested. Overall very good experience"

The White Hart Overton

➤ The White Hart London RoadHampshire RG25 3NW, RG25 3TS, Overton, United Kingdom

Cafés • Mexican • Asiatic • Seafood

"Everything in the White Heart is disorganised. On arrival you are just ignored. When you do manage to get attention they have no idea on what to do. Drinks are not offered you have to go to the bar as no waiter available. The revamped tapas menu and build your own meal are a good change to the offering. However the staff have no clue of what the dishes include so you are left to work it out. From ordering to meals arriving 45 mins. Just plonked on the table by waitress and left. No offer of sauces etc or maybe a second drink. No check is the food OK. So back to bar to queue and carry your own.drinks back. Then when you get your bill from the bar they add 12.5% service charge to everything. What a joke as there is no service. They were unfriendly throughout. We live local and really like how the hotel is laid out. Whenever we visit we struggle so it's no fun. This hotel and restaurant needs a manager who knows their job. Staff need training."

La Trappiste

➤ 1&2 Sun Street Canterbury, Kent CT1 2HX, United Kingdom

Pizza • Sushi • Belgian • English

"in the center of the medieval canterbury is an old and tasty restaurant, named for the famous Trapiste, which serves typical Belgian foods (although we are in england). this place is a cross between a bar, a tea room and a restaurant. besides a large selection of beers, they enjoy delicious dishes such as the exceptional burgers that are served with homemade brot, or the special tee with cream. the restaurant has a rustic feel, and each chair is another style. the terrace is magnificent, and there is even a pavillon, decorated with tiny lights that they feel like surrounded by stars in the midst of this beautiful medieval building. on the ground floor they find a piano with a sign that invites guests to entertain the audience with their musical talents. excellent service, with waiterven are always friendly and helpful."

Great Queen Street

➤ 32 Great Queen Street London, WC2B 5AA, United Kingdom

Beer • Wine • British • European

"as one of the best places to eat in the covent garden, the great queen street is known for seasonal and hearty British cuisine, where reservations must be due to its constant popularity. with a non-pretentious menu that is heavily based on fresh products, it changes daily, so that they can expect something new every day. coming in a full dining room with a reservation of 6:30 o'clock, it is popularity among the londoners obvious. under a small table in the middle, we ordered the two dishes recommended by our friendly waitress. the roasted hake served with the new season borlotti bran with a hot snail dressing was srumptious and I have sweetened the sauce with the free brot. my sister-baked lemon sole served with a cream brewed bisque was just as beautiful and we both cleaned our dishes with lightness! we were more than impressed by the eating and service of great queen street. the dishes allowed to shine the ingredients and it is a No-Frills Sorta menu, where edible flowers, unnecessary foam and bites are nowhere to find. the well-known staff can recommend the perfect drink pairing and despite the work, they were friendly, attentive and very efficient. the perfect way to finish our trip in london!"

Charlotte's W5

➤ Dickens Yard, The Old Stable Block London, W5 2UQ, United Kingdom

Coffee • British • European • Breakfast-brunch

"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."

The Vicarage

➤ The Vicarage; Freehouse RoomsKnutsford Road, Cranage, United Kingdom

Tea • Pubs • Seafood • European

"Disappointingly average food and a confused main menu choices on a Sunday of roast dinners one last pink beef at 5pm that wasn't pink it was well done) and sandwiches and hot roast sandwiches with chips, special was lobster and was quite expensive for the quality. Also a bit eclectic in the interior design back to the 80's in the conservatory and a different style in the main room with a hotch potch of accessories in the mix. Overall just OK, better pubs nearby for a Sunday with friends."

Cosmopolitan Restaurant

➤ 30a St George's Street, PR7 2AA, Chorley, United Kingdom

Pizza • Sushi • Mexican • European

"This restaurant review describes the writer's first Christmas lunch of the season, which set a high standard for future meals. The meal consisted of up to 3 courses for a little over £30. The special Christmas menu offered some options that were also available on the regular menu, but the turkey ballotine was the standout choice. The dish, surrounded by roast vegetables and served with gravy, was described as large, flavorful, and succulent. The lamb dish was also enjoyed with great compliments. The food was well presented and served by a friendly and talkative host. The writer is tempted to return for another meal at the restaurant."

Underbar

➤ 53 Dorset Street Marylebone London, W1U 7NH, W1U 7NE, United Kingdom

"to come back soon. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, the service was friendly and attentive, and the food was absolutely delicious. We tried a variety of dishes and each one was bursting with flavor. The restaurant had a great selection of wines and cocktails as well. Overall, we had a fantastic dining experience and would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great meal in a charming setting. Can't wait to dine here again!"
