"Amazing. I recently took my mother to the Crazy Bear on Saturday last week for her birthday surprise. I have to say we both really enjoyed it. I was a lovely girlie evening. On arrival we were met by the hostess, who was all smiles and made us feel so welcome. She promptly took our coats and we were escorted downstairs to the bar for pre-dinner drinks. We sat at the bar where we were instantly handed a drinks menu by a hunky bar tender, named Santi I believe? Ladies, you have to meet this guy, he is gorgeous and makes a mean Martini! After our drinks we were taken upstairs to our table in the restaurant. The food was delicious, we had huge amounts of sushi, which was divine! Much better...read more"

"The host was excellent upon our arrival, but our table was not ready on time. This wasn't a big issue as we were able to stand and enjoy a drink while we waited. Unfortunately, there was no space at the bar and we had to stand right next to the DJ. The service was okay, but they forgot our order twice. The food was good, but I would say it was just average. Overall, the experience was okay, but not excellent as it should have been."

"Our visit was for a birthday meal. The staff were friendly and efficient. The food was good. We chose quite spicy dishes. The food was not piled high (thank goodness) but in reasonable sized portions. We like to leave a restaurant wanting more not uncomfortably full or with a bag full of leftovers and that's exactly how it was. Will definitely book again."

"The food at the restaurant was delicious, but some dishes could have been warmer. The waitress was very friendly. We ordered 10 plates each from the set menu, and the starters were amazing. The mains were less impressive but still tasty. We had made a reservation weeks in advance and confirmed that the restaurant was participating in the government's 'eat out to help out' scheme. However, when we received the bill, the restaurant did not apply the £10 discount per person as promised. When we inquired about this, we were informed that the restaurant had opted out of the scheme, which we were not made aware of. The manager was unhelpful and even rude when we raised our concerns. After some negotiation, he agreed to remove one meal from the bill and waive the service charge to make up for the mistake. The poor management service left us feeling embarrassed and disappointed. We would not have traveled 1.5 hours to Crazy Bear on a Tuesday night if it had not been for the scheme."

"we booked a suite and were very happy with our stay! but we wanted to say a very special thank you to ollie the barmann, he really made our stay very special and went beyond both in the evening and beyond. then again on the morning to the breakfast, nothing was too much for him and he served us with a smile and a great sense for humor, he made me the best cocktail I had in my life. and there were a few hahahaha! and even a glitchy heating / gas canister to keep us warm after dinner, again he really made our stay in crazy bear for my partner. thank you!"

"Really enjoyed a meal here with my husband and a friend before a theatre show at the National. Very lovely decor and atmosphere, great selection of small plates to share and a good cocktail. Attentive waiting staff. A little pricey and portion not big but quality food. Also a good location. Will return."

"Highest expectations at Harrod's, so I was disappointed overall. I waited a pretty long time to be greeted by my server and he was scarce throughout my meal. I ordered a Kobe burger and fries. The burger was great, but not 35GBP great. The fries were chewy and lukewarm, not fresh. I had a great South African red wine Chocolate something or other. I love Harrod's architecture, decorations, the crowd and the vibe, but the meal was bit of a let down."

"really great atmosphere, eating, coffee and personal. the birthday of a friend and the personal manager went beyond and beyond to make it special. only the reason I dropped a star is the container I took away the rest, was tied in the Doggy bag and so the food went through and stained my clothes and shoes (despite that the container itself was completely closed.)"

"Regrettably, the restaurant was extremely cold. I had to keep my coat on during the entire dinner. I later saw other reviews mentioning the same issue. It definitely detracted from what could have been a more pleasant meal. The food was tasty, but it cooled down quickly and the hot chocolate was merely lukewarm."

"The food was really nice and the staff were very friendly and the interior is beautiful. Only issue is if you go on a Friday or Saturday night expect a wait on the food. We went Saturday evening and were waiting quite a while (an hourish) . The place was full to the brim so it was understandable. We where also offered a free round of drinks for the wait too . The food was worth the wait however and I can't wait to go again!"

"as someone who grew up eating poke is this place top notch. we stumbled over this restaurant while we walk in soho around picadilly circus. I didn't expect me to find a Poke shop, and here it is, right in front of kingly food court. the whole mood in the restaurant is beautiful and intimate, with plenty of seating for a few people as well as sitting outside. eating is really good. I have the classic ahi thunfish bowl that comes with a portion rice, nori (dried seatang,) a few creatures of the ahi thunfisch, edamame or ananas salsa. renalda was very helpful and friendly. she is someone who embodies the Aloha spirit even after she only worked 3 weeks here. her warm personality made it a joy to order. we'll be back when we're in london!"

"great service and good food. very enjoyed the bao bungalows chose crab and they were delicious (also a funny challenge to eat due to the sheer size.) the wood meat was good. not sharp on the dumplings, as they were quite wet, she did not personally enjoy sitting in kondiments. please with the panna cotta dessert. I would also like to stress the service of a certain person who was friendly enough to first check that the tellers were finished before they were taken away, this was very appreciated and saved the abhorrence of most other experiences where the meals are taken away before they are finished."

"I read a lot of great reviews on line and I thought I would experience a lovely time with my 18 month old daughter and best friend. I was really disappointed with how we were treated. I am also 8 and a half months pregnant and I’ve been to several restaurants in the past where I have taken mini snacks for my daughter just incase she did not like the food provided at the restaurant. Several restaurants had no issues with it. I was so disappointed with how we were approached. I was approached by a stern man who instructed me to put away the Pringles I gave my daughter to distract her whilst we ordered our food. It was very unprofessional of him and he was incredibly rude in the process when I tried to explain to him that my daughter is quite hungry and needs something He walked off in the midst of the conversation. He said it was not his problem if the child refused to eat the food they had at his restaurant but he was not prepared for us to have other food not purchased at the restaurant. As a mother, I have never heard of such a thing and felt very disappointed with how we were treated honestly. The service wasn’t great for the rest of the evening and very little attention was paid to detail. The other waiter at the bar was also quite rude and got frustrated with me when I got up to ask for cutlery. The service overall was just really heartbreakingly disappointing. We are as quickly as possible and left. I will not recommended this restaurant if you have a little child, as they do not seem to want to cater for certain people. I was quite disappointed as I saw the first waiter speak with people from his background quite nicely and served them nicely too."

"We went into The Foresters as we were in the area and it looked like a nice place for a drink. When we went in, we were greeted happily by a lovely young lady and as they weren't busy she asked where would we like to sit. We sat by the fireplace in these lovely huge chairs to have drinks. We decided to stay for dinner; the waitress asked if we would like dinner where we were or move to the restaurant, we moved into the restaurant area. We ordered some bread to start with and I was very pleasantly surprised to have warm bread come out as it was freshly baked there and then. Amazing, I hope they stick with this. I had the fish and chips and my partner had steak. The food was hot , well cooked and very tasty. The service was excellent, the waitress attentive, friendly, smiley and chatty. I would definitely recommend and go back."

"Finding a restaurant that serves halal Thai Cuisine in London was nothing less than finding Aladin’s magic lamp for a foodie like me!!! The mouthwatering unforgettable taste of authentic Thai food, the decor and the excellent service provided by the friendly staffs just created a magical atmosphere on our special dinner outing. Would highly recommend to those who crave for halal Thai Food in London."

"Unfortunately, we did not enjoy the experience at BEJU as it was over rated and the restaurant was trying to reach a 5 star standard it is far from. Myself, my boyfriend and two of our friends were very much looking forward to the food and drinks. It was expensive and I was expecting a better service from the staff. We were sat at the bottom of the restaurant where the DJ stand is. This was the main problem of the meal due to the fact, we felt like it was a nightclub and had to literally shout across the table to have a conversation. Several times we asked the staff if we could move up the room if it would make any difference as it wasn’t worth it. The manager would turn down the music and the DJ would turn it back up. Seen as it wasn’t a cheap meal and we wanted the full experience we ordered the starters and then cancelled the mains. It was a shame as if the atmosphere would of been correct, it would of been brilliant. Don’t get me wrong the music choice and playlist were top tier but I came out with an headache. After the staff apologised to us plenty of times we found it more frustrating as they were not solving the situation. By the end of the meal which were only starters, I asked for a reduction of the receipt. They took off the service charge which is optional anyways. By all means come for cocktails and nibbles but we will certainly not be returning."

"This will be my 4th week staying at this hotel whilst our charity is vaccinating the housebound population of Somerset. Its a great place to stay and comfortable with a good menu. Having had the same dishes to choose from for some time, can you please consider alternative menu options? Also at breakfast, the only egg choice appears to be scrambled which due to the way its stored on the buffet counter, is always overcooked. Some alternative egg options like boiled, fried or poached would be appreciated."

"We 'd booked a table to eat. It was a bank holiday and was quite rowdy in the bar area when we arrived. The food was very rich and ever so greasy, i enjoyed some of the dishes, others not so much. A meal and drinks for two came to just over £200 with a service charge of around £25. We wanted to carry on drinking at the table after our meal. The staff advised they needed to close our food bill but we could stay and pay as you go for drinks. We settled the food bill and ordered more drinks and they applied another service charge of about £5 for one round! Had we not challenged it they would have continue to apply the service charge for each round of drink, which is really poor practice considering we 'd just paid a decent service charge for our meal. Wasn 't impressed by this at all."

"The new menu at this fabulous restaurant is outstanding, and dining here is a delightful experience complemented by excellent service. The set menu offers a fantastic meal at a great price. Supporting this new venture is surely a decision you won’t regret!"
