When booking I noted that it was our daughters birthday and they brought out a dessert and sang happy birthday, a lovely gesture! Our server was Leroy and he was great!

This is a lovely restaurant, we went after my son's graduation, liking the fact it was serving food sourced from the North West. Ambience was good, service was excellent. The main meals we had were extremely good, the only thing that slightly let the the food down was the desserts, it was as if they'd been bought in from somewhere else, they weren't of the same quality as the mains. Other than that, I will definitely be recommending Embankment to others.

Absolutely delicious food and drinks which were reasonably priced. We were able to sit outside and it was lovely! The staff were so accommodating and ensured our drinks were always full and we were happy with our dining experience. Cannot fault anything! Will definitely be returning!
