   What a shame, really been looking forward to this, but I’m sorry to say the food for all 3 of us was at best warm, the mussels lukewarm warm with very little sauce. The char baked bread was not good as it was quite burnt leaving an after taste so we left it. Our server was incredible and very apologetic. Very pricey for what the food is but I suppose rent & rates need paying.

   Dinner at the River Restaurant in the Savoy is consistently a remarkable experience. The atmosphere is captivating, the decor is stunning, and the food is amazing. At Christmas time, the festive decorations make the setting even more breathtaking, adding a touch of magic to the occasion. The staff strikes the perfect balance between attentiveness and discretion, ensuring exceptional service without being intrusive. There's always someone nearby if assistance is needed, making the entire dining experience seamless and thoroughly enjoyable.

   You won’t be disappointed, wide range of fish dishes with top notch ingredients, service and ambiance. Actually went for beef wellington, although the most expensive main course it was a dream - not going to be able to eat it anywhere else! Tables fairly close but somehow you’re not aware of your neighbours. Great place to people watch the bar from the floor. Staff are friendly but approachable. Would return again and again.

   Met friends for breakfast/brunch. Service was friendly but slow. Food was amazing but, as to be expected a touch expensive. Coffee was delicious although personally I prefer it hotter. Staff were accommodating when asking us if we would mind moving from our table after we had finished our meal so they could set up for lunch, they found us another table and moved all our drinks etc for us. The place is classy without being pretentious and decorated beautifully for Christmas. It has become a bit of a tradition now for my friends and I to meet there pre-Christmas to exchange gifts and catch up and we would not hesitate to return next year as our annual treat.

   Beautiful setting, wait staff couldn't do enough for me and because I was dining alone, made sure I didn't feel abandoned - or overly smothered either! Food is pricey but you definitely get what you pay for. Heavily leans into seafood but there are a couple of non-swimming options! Dessert was to die for!! Overall, for a treat, it's perfect.

   Very disappointed. It took an hour to get the first course, Oysters arrived at room temperature, scallops were cold and they didn’t deliver the correct other dish. Main courses were underwhelming and not worth it. Food was OK, but not what you’d expect from a Ramsay brand. Service was terrible, only slightly made up by discounts at the bill.
