    Arrived for pre-theatre lunch a bit early but were shown straight to a table. To be fair the restaurant was far from full. We were planning on having the pre-theatre set menu but this was not available. Apparently it has to be booked when making the reservation and is not offered for the matinee even though the play is in the same building!! This is not made clear on the website of the restaurant or Open Table. So we went a la carte and the food, though very pricey, was excellent. Fish and chips and the Yorkshire pudding with steak were delicious. We were celebrating my mum’s birthday and the staff brought out balloons and a cake for her. A lovely touch. Overall the staff were fantastic and earned an extra star for the review. So in summary it is a nice place with views over the river with great food but the price point is a bit steep.

    Bar and cocktails were very good Restaurant let down by its kitchen - several items not available, steaks were served at wrong temperature and when sent back we were told after 10 minutes that it would be up to 25 minutes more before replacement ( a medium rare steak?) Service in restaurant was generally slow too

    Only part of the order was served initially then when the bill was brought and we refused to tip the waitress looked put out. This added to the fillet steak was really fatty and the Coke we ordered was flat. All in all it was not a very nice dining experience for quite an expensive meal!!!

    Decent if slightly overpriced wine list. Good menu with broad options - my steak was superb and cooked perfectly. Staff friendly - could be more attentive - we had to pour our own wine and it took a while to grab staff attention to get the bill etc. would recommend and will return.

    Been multiple times before albeit a long time ago and was always amazing, but sadly the passage of time has not been kind. Food was good but we all agreed it didn’t live up to expectations or the premium prices charged. I distinctly remember the giant cheese filled Yorkshire puddings offered as an appetiser being a highlight of the experience, so was understandably disappointed with the small cheese free replacements. That point may sound insignificant, but I think it somewhat underscores the fall from grace I felt across the meal. Service was excellent, very attentive and well paced throughout the meal, not easy with larger tables, can highly commend them there.
