    Overall I would say it was a mediocre meal, first and foremost, I was not offered the Sunday free flowing menu, even though it’s advertised on a board outside. The service was ok, nothing extraordinary but the food was not great. We had the 3 tier tasting platter, firstly I would say cold element was great (apart from the fact that most of the vinegrette for oysters spilled during transit) but the hot dishes got cold by the time we finished the cold dishes. Main disappointment was that the scallops were undercooked and the fried items, calamari in particular were soggy. I’m sorry, I have dined before in the Marylebone venue, and the service was more attentive whilst the food was at a different level, I will probably give it another try, at some stage but not good value for money at the moment. I don’t normally write negative reviews but this time I had to

    4 adults and 3 young children for an early evening supper- the atmosphere was great and the staff were all good too. It even proved relaxing for the parents. FishWorks is the best place in Covent Garden when eating out with children.

    Had a lovely meal, only downside was the air con was not working and it was fairly warm on a warm day but apart from that we loved it.

    Like Fishworks Covent Gatden and visit several times a year. Yesterday, however, the meal fell a bit short. The wild prawn starter three of us chose was not good. The shellfish were a bit mushy (?maybe not entirely fresh) and their taste undistinguished. No after effects (this review written round 22 hours later), but just not the quality I expect from Fishworks.
