"This review is the one you need: 1. The queue was 1hr 10 mins on a Saturday at 7pm, not bad in my eyes for a hyped restaurant. It was -2 outside when we queued up so glad I was wearing a fat coat. The queue runs along the river so it will get chilly so make sure you 're warm if visiting in the winter. When we got to the front, the manager moved us under the tables with the heated lamps which was lovely. The food was mostly worth the wait. All in all, not too bad. I was expecting way worse. 6/10 2. The food was mainly good. My highlight was the beef brisket doughnuts...paired with the sauce and the pickles.. omg delicious. The buttermilk prawns were also banging. We had *all* the snacks. The chicken skin was not worth it...cold and dry. Mac and cheese balls were not pulling and dry from the inside. The best snack was the jalapeño popper and calamri. We got the po boy with the buttermilk chicken and I think the chicken was really dry and not tasty. I wish we got the grilled chicken po boy as with all the fried snacks, it all started to taste the same after a while, so if you go I 'd recommend if you 're getting the snacks, get the grilled chicken/prawn option for your BYO Poor Boy . I 'd give the food on its own an 8/10. It was mainly hit, but the items that were misses, were real misses. 3. The restaurant was coooooold inside. Make sure you dress warm if you 're visiting in the winter. I had to sit with my coat over my legs as a blanket! The seats are super uncomfortable and the bathrooms were not the cleanest. 1/10 4. Service is fast and the server we had was very attentive. No fault whatsoever with that! She even swapped over some sauces for us as we had so many of the same sauces! The only thing about the service was that the server didn 't ask us about our meal at the end, but that is being really nit-picking. 10/10 Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: £50–60 Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 3 Recommended dishes: Brisket"

"by esin huseyin the grill market could feel a greasy airflower serving dripping burgers - they will be glad to know that this is not another burger review. the grill market was reopened recently after a month of renovation, so I decided that it was the perfect time to drive to holborn and see what it was about. it led a small debate between me and koray, as though the place a “handful”, eating for us justified more of a restaurant vibe, and they will find out why. well, I really went past this place, quite possibly because I am not normally a holborn girl, but I think mainly because grill market is very used with its shopfront and color palette. large windows on both sides of the building to create a lot of natural light, as well as the use of wood, metal and gray – it created a clean and friendly environment. the open kitchen and seating opportunity, created a warmer environment, and even allows them to be a bit more involved in the food – they can see what is being prepared, and the smells from the kitchen entice them. As I said, it is all quite neutral – but the fun and the color is injected through their food. I want to say that in the hour or so that I was here, this place had a constant flow of people, and even had a squeeze to most of my time there. it may be because I visited during the midday hours, but in any case it was a good sign – there were even calls of people in “Oh, it’s changed here...” concerning me when they can keep regular customers in a city that constantly grows and expands, they my friend, earn a medaille. grill market has a few menus to choose from; breakfast, lunch and salad. I decided of course for the lunch menu and decided to go a little light with a mixed salad and fresh hot halloumi from the grill. before I ordered, my exact words were “I am not much salad man...” – I was wrong, so wrong, that I will eat my hat halloumi. now a little more about the salads, here were the selections I had to choose: tomato, broth, red planks, caps, roasted paprika basilikum. chickpeas, mais, korrian, early on onions harissa dressing. cous cous, quinoa, bulgian weiz, roasted courgette, minze, feta pint nuts. kale, bon, hazelnuts, with an orange ingwer dressing. carrots, white red cabbage, green paprika, vinage I would be here for age groups if I went into detail about each individual salate – but there were some that I loved more than others. the cous cous was my favorite; the note of feta and mint that came through were amazing, and super refreshing. the salat that had actually brot was really incredible – now this brot was actually wet from the dressur used, and wet brot is usually a huge artpas. in the word of the child; it was not a “No no no no no no”, but it was a huge “yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes” moment. if they don't know this reference, I'm old. the contrast between the hot eating from the grill and the cold salad – simply worked. they are not the first to do this, but I feel that the choice of salads they have used was not only original, but honestly, it would be something for everyone. if they are in a little hurry, they can also take it away in a box that is good for the location, as it is mainly office space around holborn. the salads were all freshly made on this day, and they could taste that the salads were still crispy! salate tends to go a bit meh when it sits in his dressing for one because. and the one thing to mention that the salads all change once in a because, so they will never look bored – we are quite trying to get back to a few weeks! this week it was a Persian lamb flat brot. nom. there are many reasons why I enjoyed my visit and would go back; the friendly mood of the place (they were even old j, I know that I said this in another review on the other day, but they come up. , friendly staff (they even knew their ancestors well, good eating, but also the fact that they don't rely on their food alone because it regularly changes. that is for me success, not to mention, if they can make me eat a plate of salad and be full of it, it is worthy of assessment. for our non-food-related reviews and functions or updates to the reviews we have published here on zomato, please visit our website."
