    Great before the theatre. We were running late and they looked after us brilliantly. However OpenTable has marked that we were a no show which was not the case and I can't seem to get onto the page to correct this.

    This is a great place to meet friends for lunch or dinner who are coming to London via Waterloo Station or if you are seeing a play or film on the South Bank. The food is simple but consistently good. The service is friendly but not massively attentive. There is usually a buzz and a good atmosphere.

    Excellent service by very friendly and helpful staff in a restaurant with excellent ambiance for what was a pre-theatre meal. Decent food and wine though London prices of course. Would certainly re-visit.

    Good food, polite service. We booked for 9.30, arrived on time. Kitchen was closing at 10 (which we knew) and they wanted us to choose within seconds of arriving. We felt very rushed a d not terribly welcome at that point. I don't think they should accept 9.30 bookings if that's what they are going to do.

    We have now had three film and food afternoons + early evening dinners in Benugo at the NFT and they have all been very good. Your booking system is easy and reliable plus it sends a neat reminder the day before. On each occasion we have found the staff friendly and helpful. Service time from ordering to eating is good even when you appear to be very busy. Last Saturday the three of us all agreed that the chicken, which each of us had, was excellent and we are already planning our next film and dinner with others because we thought it went so well. Do keep the standards up and especially look after your staff and they will look after your business. We will be back for more.................. Thanks and regards, Martyn =;p+)

    Pre-theatre, so we did not have much time (sadly). Food delicious. Service exceptionally good.

    The service is always painfully slow - which makes pre-theatre meals very stressful. However the food quality and atmosphere compensate for it.
