    Food was delicious and beautifully cooked. We come up to London every couple of months to the theatre and usually eat at Fishworks. As always the experience was exceptional and we will be back

    I was at Fishworks - Covent Garden just over a year ago and was very impressed. Coming back first thing I noticed was that the restaurant was half-empty (on Saturday night???) and then realised why: the portion shrank significantly and the prices went up significantly. As for the food, it was OK but only OK, no WOW thing by any means.

    Great overall experience with excellent food and service. Only negative was the overly loud and annoying music. Speakers were of poor quality with a tinny sound and the music selection was bad. Fix that and the whole experience would be greatly improved.

    I have a dairy allergy, this was mentioned on my booking. In the past very simple dishes such as cooked prawn, have been adapted, and cooked in olive oil instead of butter for me. How embarrassing for the lovely waitress to have to tell me that their policy is to not adapt any of the food to accommodate me dietary requirements. Also embarrassing for myself. This ment there were only 2 starters I could have, one was Tuna which I was having for main and the other, a vegan dish. Fish is very easy to modify in it's cooking which is why we had choseen to ear at Fish works, which we have done for several years. Unfortunately I will not be eating there again, my son who is also dairy allergic will not be eating there either.
