I would like to thank The Blues Kitchen for yet another amazing night. The food, service and ambiance was outstanding. The manager and trainee manager were a delight. The trainee manager (a young Canadian man) will be an asset to the restaurant, he kept us laughing and provided an exceptional service. See you again soon 🙂

We'd had a recommendation for this restaurant and we were definitely not disappointed! From the moment we arrived the service was fantastic, the cocktails are great and food amazing. We all had the Oysters starter followed by Ribeye steak and the truffle tagliatelle. We also crammed in desserts (cheesecake and the chocolate fondant) which were equally delicious! Definitely the best meal we had in London so far and all the staff were great, the service from our waiter Maurizio was simply the best, so attentive and friendly! It's not cheap here but you get what you pay for.... so go on, treat yourself!!
