"The PAD restaurant was not open. I waited 5 mins or so for the host to tell me the restaurant was closed and food was being served in the bar area instead. It was not great trying to eat dinner on a settee with a low table. I ordered off the set menu with the bar person and sat down. 10 mins later I was told that what I had ordered on the set menu was not included. Bear in mind the bar person should have told me this from the start. I ordered a starter and main course. The food was average but the the entire visit took one hour and fifty mins and I was eating on my own. Service was very poor. I would not eat here again on my next visit. The menu did not offer great value. £15.00 for burger and chips is extortionate. The beer was flat and was swapped three times."

The staff at this restaurant are all very friendly and kind. They even prepared a special table for my daughter, who enjoyed the view of both the helicopter and the river. The dishes were delicious and healthy, with my favorite being the buffalo cauliflower.

We made a last-minute reservation as we were staying in the area and wanted to walk to a restaurant. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. The cocktails were a bit on the expensive side, but that was to be expected given the location. Overall, we had a lovely evening.

Sits right by the river, very nice seating area overlooking a the heliport. Great with families, good variety of menu with also some sharing platters available for very reasonable price. As a local resident, it`s great option for a weekday when you don`t want to cook and if you are part of their great mate program you also get 20% off from your bill. Will be back for sure.

Despite having made a reservation through OpenTable, the waitress initially declined to give us a table, even though the restaurant was empty. After showing her the confirmation email, she offered us a table in the bar area. We had to insist on getting a table in the restaurant. The service was very slow, and the kids' meals were served incorrectly. There was no fresh air in the restaurant and lacked ambiance.

"No doubt about it the food is first rate. Expertly cooked and well seasoned. The service is not what one would expect at a restaurant of this level (e.g. having to ask for wine list or water refill). Retaining qualified staff is challenging but the top restaurants manage that. Glass all around and close tables make for a loud and crowded environment but ambiance is clearly not a priority. If you only go for the food and not the experience it’s fine."

"My third time in the morning. I stole my friend with me, as I told him, it's the best restaurant in London and it wasn't disappointed. Parmesan fritters were exceptional as usual, and the kitchen shared our sausage Ragu Pasta (which should die for), in two pots when we said we share everything. Friend asked if we could come monthly from now on to enjoy the changing menus! Best meal we ever had. Thank you very much! X"

"Apparently they were very busy (just as a side note I booked in advance) so we were seated in the downstairs “breakfast room” rather than in the lobby level afternoon tea room (the room that is advertised with the nice tea sets and cute sofas an quirky tea room interior). That was already very disappointing. The room was in the lower ground level, it had a few breakfast tables, but otherwise felt empty and in addition the doors were closed. Luckily, another family arrived and was seated in the same room as us, so we felt a little less isolated and abandoned afterwards. The food was not even average in terms of quality, the sandwiches and scones were OK, but the cakes (although there was a selection of them) were not good at all. They were dry and somewhat tasteless. Definitely not reflecting the price! The friendliness and kindness of the waitress was the best part of the experience. She was extremely nice to us and to our dog. Overall, the afternoon tea at the Egerton House Hotel was disappointing and massively overpriced (we paid £184 for two including one glass of champagne each and the dog’s menu). The only benefit of this experience (or let’s say the only experience) is that you can bring your dog. But is it worth it? The answer is most definitely NO!!!!!!"

"Malaysian and Cantonese menu. Nice decor, well air-conditioned, very friendly and chatty staff. I had Aromatic crispy duck starter this was one of the best I've tried, the duck was cooked well and very delicious. The pancakes are big. Nasi Lenka the chicken was delicious, rice flavoured with coconut, side of peanuts and egg and a paste sauce. Anchovies I am not keen on so didn't eat them. I enjoyed this dish. Crisp beef it is very crispy cooked all the way through so it doesn't even taste like beef anymore and covered in a sweet sauce. It was like eating niknaks. I didn't enjoy this dish as much as the rest. Golden prawns giant prawns covered in crushed cornflakes. Again this tatsed too sweet for me, I enjoyed the prawns but I wouldn't recommend. Complimentary prawn crackers. This came to over £100 for 2 people. I feel like this was a little pricey. Parked on single yellow."
