"Restaurant Bar Grill is owned by Individual Restaurants, of which own a couple of restaurants around the city, including on in partnership with celebrity chef, Gino D 'acampo which is one of my favourite Italians in the city, this offers a different type of cuisine in a large, stunning building just off Deansgate on John Dalton Street, it is opposite Salvi 's. Walking in, it doesn 't feel like a restauraunt at all and I did struggle to find this place at first and I had to use Google Maps in my own city and only located it through it being opposite Salvi 's. The place inside is huge, you enter through a bar, upstairs you have the restauraunt and terrace area, keep going up and you have Head Office. The staff were so friendly and kind especially the host who escorted me upstairs and to my seat. The gluten free menu had some good options, I ordered a gluten free greek kebab, I was told it consisted of chicken, peppers, onions and it sounded pretty good so I ordered it, the service, however, was really slow and I must have been waiting over 20 25 minutes only to be served a gluten containing item instead, it was served with a form of bread, I had to check it was gluten free, only to be told No I asked them to remake the dish as it wasn 't gluten free to avoid cross contamination which they had no problem with, again this meant I had to wait even longer which was a pain considering the restauraunt was mostly empty, with only 3 or 4 tables of which looked like staff sitting there, probably from Head Office as they didn 't seem to be ordering food either, I totally understand waiting for food when it 's busy but considering it was virtually empty, I can 't understand why or at least I didn 't understand why until I tasted the food, I couldn 't understand why a stunning, large venue offering 50% off food could be empty, of course until the food. My kebab was awful and if it wasn 't for the staff making it free due to my long waiting time and the fact I didn 't want to spend much longer in the restauraunt, I would have sent it back. The chicken was bland, and it also had halloumi on which I wasn 't expecting, I bit into this and it tasted so bad, halloumi is one of my most hated foods anyway, accompanied by something which tasted like pico de gallo, this just put me right off my food regardless, I do think a better explanation either on the menu or from the staff at what food would be served is warranted, as I didn 't get what I was expecting at all. The portion size for the prize also is laughable, my dish normally would have cost £18.50, with no sides plus a service charge. 1* Considering how great the host and most of the staff were it 's a shame to give such a low rating, but I think it is warranted given the circumstances of the long wait times, poorly described terrible food and the fact I was given gluten by mistake and if I hadn 't of been suspicious and asked to confirm if my food was gluten free, I could have been really ill. By the time my dish was remade, I had lost all confidence in this place to be able to deliver a safe meal regardless."

"the inhabitants of chelsea and fulham can appreciate themselves fortunate, not only for the obvious reasons (it is one of the most prosperous against in london, but also because the imperial recently opened at the western end of the king’s road! Previously a pub, known as the imperial arms, is now a modern restaurant in a stunning Victorian building that was completely renovated by the owners alan turtill and kate macwhirter. I was kindly invited to check the special brunch menu of the restaurant so I was there a few weeks ago with my man. we took the overground of clapham junction for just one stop to the imperial wharf and went to the restaurant less than ten minutes. we were greeted by the beautiful front of the house staff who took away our moms and accompanied us to a table on the back of the restaurant. the room swarmed in the sunlight that came through from the window wall, while before us the open kitchen with the chefs was at work. the imperial is beautiful with a lot of love for detail furnished: the table top with colorful small pots salt and pfeffer; the copper lamps above the kitchen bar; the color scheme with small yellow and blue details repeated here and there; and my favorites aesop hand wash in the toilets! we decided to order two glasses of prosecco to celebrate the discovery of this beautiful place and awake our appetite! the new brunch menu of the chef cook tom hope contains the benefits of coriander chilli corn fritters with fender and bacon; crushed avocado lemon, tomato grilled halloumi on sourdough and egg white omelette, spring onion herbs but we decided to taste two classics: the full english breakfast and the eggs benedict. I loved how the dishes were presented and the beautiful colors of eating against the blue tellers. my full english with rührei, speck, sausage, mushroom, black pudding, tomaten and roasted brot was delicious! each element was tasty without exaggerating the other. we treated ourselves dessert, but only one who shared us, as we were already full of breakfast. the brotpudding was delicious! it was the second time I had one in my whole life, so don't count me as expert, but it was really nice. one of the owners, kite, was in the restaurant to ensure that everything went smoothly and even the tables served. I had the chance to thank her for the invitation and tell her I had a great time. she was happy to know that I loved eating and invited us to stay for a Sunday! I could see that beautiful roasts come from the kitchen and it was really hard to resist the temptation. but there will be another time, sure!"
