"A pleasant evening of dining. Just dropped in on a Friday night and were greated by friendly staff. We were lucky enough to snag a table at the front of the restaurant with a view of Borough Market. Our party of three shared a starter of marinated olives and a cheese platter. As a main I had Lamb Bulger Meatballs, they were succulent with plenty of flavour. I finished with an Ameretto and Pear Cheesecake. It was very light, tending more towards mousse, but very flavoursome. All washed down with a bottle of house red and a dessert wine. Service was very good, and staff were helpful, taking the time to explain and recommend from the menu. The restaurant was clean and tidy with a vibrant ambience. Background music was playing but this was in keeping with the style of the restaurant and not too loud to intrude and stiffle conversation. With lots of eateries in the location, this is worth a visit."

"Having last visited this restaurant as a child and having very fond memories of family evenings there I was delighted to return today and find the same owners still in place and the same brilliant food. The owner could not have been more welcoming and my 6 year old daughter, having been gifted a free ice lolly after enjoying a delicious bowl of authentic spaghetti carbonara, described the restaurant as “the best in the world”"

"Our paninis were good, the coffee was excellent, and the staff were super friendly and helpful. We sat outside and I will tell you the garden is magical. You're on a patio covered by trees with figs and bunches of grapes growing all around. It's cool and fresh even on a hot day. Highly recommend."

"Booked for 2. Waiter asked for our order within 2 minutes of sitting down. Then came back to tell us the kitchen was closing early so we had to order then and there.. didn’t even get a chance to order drinks or read the menu. Ambiance was terrible, no one in there and morgue music. Ended up with some dry bread and oil. The best bit was the cold glass of the one drink we got. And to top it off had to pay service charge. Would not return or recommend to anyone. Says parking but is little to none."

"I went with a group of people last night and we were waiting nearly minutes for our drinks to arrive, Then finally ordered our food and they took over an hour with that then they served us half cooked prawns which we did not realise until i ate one and had a funny taste in my mouth so we checked the others and they were part cooked and part raw which is abissmal i told them to take them away then they offered to cook more i said i do not want any more food from you as i didn't feel well then and hour later when everyone finished there main course the waiter who seemed non existent finally arrived to take pudding orders and tried offering me it when i told him i didn't feel well was ridiculous and that i wished to speak to the manager he arrived minutes later and tried telling me that the prawns were cooked so i told him to go get them and we can check again even after the waiter admitted they were not cooked and my whole cooked see they were not then he asked what he could do to help with the issue so i told him to remove all my food off the bill which he said he did but when it came to pay he had not taken anything off and even tried charging for a free bread dish which i asked for to try and settle my stomach so i spoke to the rude manager again to remove it all he then added a service charge and tried billing us for things we didn't have so they ruined my first night out in a month and made me very ill and just didn't care the service was the worst i have ever seen and i eat out rather a lot due to hours i work so to all members of the public do not go eat there unless you wish to be very ill and have a condescending manager try telling you that your wrong."

"Although the restaurant itself was very nice and we could not fault the attentive service of the waiting staff, the food was OK but not overly hot. We only had a main meal each plus drinks and shared a dessert. What annoyed us was, while we could do nothing but accept the 12.5% service charge on the bill, when we paid the bill by cash, we were not given any change which we felt was very cheeky. This was not just a few pennies it was nearly £7. If the change had been returned we may have chosen to leave a tip, however for it not to be returned left us feeling rather aggrieved. It should not be assumed that paying by cash means keep the change, especially when a service charge has already been added. Having only booked this restaurant for its location to the theatre we were going to, it definitely was not the best meal we had during our stay in London and the experience was the one we were the most disappointed with. I might add, the waiter who took the money from us was not one that had been serving us prior to this, he just happened to be passing our table."

"better at the second time. I was in zizzi twice. the first time I left, I was at my house. I had the bruchetta al pomodoro £4.75) and my homemate had tiramisu £4.95) and it was okay, but the bruchetta was expensive, but not enough filling out and because my homemate didn't want to be any pornstars, I couldn't use my badge that let me buy a main meal and still one for £1. I enjoyed the second time because I went with a support worker and I could use my credit that gave us 2 main courses for £10. I had the rigatoni con pollo e funghi large pasta tubes with huh in a tomaten,- tweezers,- mushroom and rosemary sauce) during the support workers had the casareccia pollo picante macaroni-like pasta with huhn in a creamy chili, tomaten and spinat sauce). we enjoyed our meal and we saved £7.50 between us. because we arrived between 1 clock and 2 clock, the restaurant was quieter."

"Seriously underwhelmed. Water took our order for tomahawk steak (on the main menu) for two adults and a child. We were really looking forward to sharing that nice, juicy steak. But we got served with three entirely different cuts of beef, full of gristle, with no explanation until we asked and were told that tomahawk wasnât on the menu that night and that they needed to train their waiters better! No discount. Not even a complimentary coffee. Never again."

"Great service here, we were a tad bit early but that wasn't a problem, we were seated and served very quickly and politely. The starter was excellent drinks too were all served quickly. We had a pizza main course which was delicious and well presented. One of us had a dessert as the starter and main was such a generous size. Staff were all pleasant, we left as things were getting busy."

"we have eaten here before the pre-COVID and whether it is due to the situation, the menu is much restricted. my risotto was very nice, but my man said the fish and chips were average. I don't think we'll be harassing each other until the dings are normal again."

"on the arrival was our table not ready for the 5,30 booking we made. at the end of dinner we felt very hurry, there was a card on the table saying we could have the table on 8pm, but at 7.20 we were asked to leave the table. I don't have a problem because I know that it takes time to have the table ready for the next guests, but if we had to wait after 5,30 until our table is ready, he left an acid taste."

"I found the food to be fresh and of good quality at this restaurant. The service was good but basic, reflecting the current trend in Dublin where customer service may not be as friendly as in other places. I prefer servers who are friendly and engaging when I dine out. Unfortunately, we were not immediately offered drinks or informed about specials when we were seated, which I believe should be standard practice in the restaurant industry. The menu seems to be slightly overpriced, especially the salads, and the pizza is comparable in taste to Milanos but more expensive. However, the decor is nice and, most importantly, the food and wine were enjoyable. I would definitely visit again if in the area as I have a fondness for Italian cuisine."

"My boss booked a table at Pétrus while we were in London for a business trip."
"I requested a gluten-free and dairy-free meal. I was brought a dish and began eating it, but the chef yelled at the waitress in the kitchen to take the dishes back, which she did. The chef then indicated that my dish was not gluten-free. I would recommend avoiding this restaurant at all costs."

"It has always been a treat to have lunch at The Red Lion, but I notice corners are being cut butter is not in little pots any more with the red lion logo on top. My artichoke soup was delicious and could not be faulted imaginative with olives and parmesan cheese; the chicken liver parfait was pleasant but a bit cloying and came with a large slab of toasted brioche just the one and two thinner piece would have been more delicate, plus there was a lack of sweet jelly or even a spring of watercress. They are good, but if they believe in themselves much more, they will become unbearable. I will go bak but I hope to see an improvement in attitude."

"Food was a mix of underwhelming just okay. We ordered the calamari (don’t recommend- flavourless didn’t taste fresh), mushroom arancini (these were good), and the vegetariana pizza( not bad but forgettable), broccolini side (good- probably the highlight) While the food was okay, service was pretty bad. They managed to mess up our order, which meant that our pizza and broccoli was either given to another table or cancelled and came out VERY delayed (they denied it and one of the severs was sassy about it)….. Don’t recommend this place"

"Myself and a friend have been doing the rounds with michellin star restaurants this will definitely be in our top few favourites. We were led into a charming little nook that was very private. The service was extremely good efficient but also majority of staff were willing to have little chats and seemed appreciate humour. Every dish was fine art carefully plated and tasted amazing, we had been to sketch a couple of weeks before which was also a three star but they are poles are apart with this restaurant being a very clear winner. We were extremely honoured to be given a walk through the kitchens which added to the experience. Utterly delightful would love to come again."

"The front of the restaurant on Argyle Street may be understated, but the interior is quite pleasant with a conservative and classic decor that complements the menu and service well. The menu is extensive and features a great wine selection. The dishes are beautifully presented and well cooked, with a delightful mix of flavors and textures that evoked memories of dining in Florence. The service is attentive yet not intrusive, catering perfectly to my preference to focus solely on my companion. I highly recommend trying the steak Diane."

"we were in don beni manly in winkfield and thought we would try eton. only I and my wife sat in the window, beautiful sitting. no starter, I ordered the sirloin steak, my wife pasta. my wife loved her pasta absolutely. I cut into my...Steak (as medium crossed) and was well done. I have the waiter over, I said, "I don't want to complain, but I'm sorry I asked about this medium," which shows him the steak. he replied, “Do you want me to cook it a little more?” at this point I knew I was in trouble. I said, "No thanks, you can show the cook and ask him what he thinks." at the place he goes away with the teller and shows the chef, a minute later returns and says: "the chef says that there should be no blood on a middle steak and that is how it should be". I'll let them be judges of these pictures, what a middle steak should be. it was gum, I ate it was hungry not want to argue and cause a fuss. I know I should probably."
