   The food was excellent and reasonable value for money. There was a very noisy group of people but this wasn't the restaurants fault. There not being an option of alcohol free beers in this day and age seemed poor. The 200cc bottle of Diet Coke at an exorbitant price (I didn't know they made them that small, and at that price!) was also poor. Great if staying in hotel, eat here but don't drink here.

   So short on staff, everything took forever to come, if at all, mistakes made, left straight after eating our incomplete main meal.

   Food was really nice when it eventually arrived. We had booked early, as we're going to a show. Had to chase for everything, menus, water, wine, main course...had to rush to finish in time for taxi despite leaving 1 hour 45 mins for dinner. Wine list also poor and Bergundy was disappointing. After saying that the steaks we're excellent, as were the sides and desert was to die for...

   Conservatory was lovely, great view over the river to the o2. Staff were very friendly and couldn't do enough for you even though it was busy. Food was good, very tasty. Prices ok, expected to pay London prices

    The chef was extremely rude and the food was overcooked. Took my sister and my two sons for her birthday and given a smaller menu then the one I had booked for. Once the menu issue was rectified we went on to order and found ourselves sitting 20 minutes between meals and the chef being so rude regarding the wording of the menu. Two slices of bread does not equal a baguette no matter where it comes from. From start to finish the endless issues with the evening put a downer on what should have been an amazing night. The saving grace was Barbara from the hotel giving my youngest a teddy bear and two balloons for behaving so well which was not something we expected. Food was overcooked and again after the debacle of breadgate I really did not enjoy this meal. Fish and Chips for the youngest went down a treat though he ate nearly every bit of an adult sized portion. The views were amazing however the poor chef service totally let this beautiful little place down. Which is such a shame!

    We had a lovely meal in the Canary Wharf location, the views over the river were brilliant and the waiting staff were really friendly, kind and made extra effort with our young children. This made the experience extra special. The food was good if a little slow (and no children menu as such - but they did work with us to adapt the menu). The staff surprised us with a birthday treat which we hadn't expected at all. Thank you for a lovely evening meal.

    Booked 9pm and was lovely however was told I might be able to have coffee as they had turned the machine off! I did get it but machines should remain on until the last customer has left. Likewise was not offered dessert menu.

    I have a mixed review as we went twice. The first time was for dinner just after we arrived and the service was poor, the waiter seemed distracted and grumpy, and there was very little choice on the menu. However we had a totally different experience at breakfast the next morning. The staff were lovely and friendly and we had a good choice of food. Such a big difference from our disappointing experience the evening before.

    The service was very poor. On two occasions one of our guests had to leave the table in order to find a member of staff simply to place our food order. We were not offered drinks and again had to seek staff out to place an order. There was a corporate function taking place pace outside and this was being set up during our meal. Part of this set up included inflating a blow up structure. This was very noisy and although it only lasted a few minutes was very intrusive. No one and apologised either before or after this occurred. Why you would position our table immediately adjacent to this set up, when the rest of the restaurant was empty is quite poor and definitely shows no consideration for your guests. We did enjoy our food, and setting was lovely, but the experience could have been so much better if only your staff were better trained l.

    Not as expected. Nowhere did it say it was in a hotel! Barely at Canary Wharf. We thought we were booking a trendy little place at Canary Wharf to eat. Staff were a tentative, but...there was no one else in there! Disappointing for a rare trip to London to end up here...

    The food was lovely, however my friend chose the roast beef, but was not asked how she would like it cooked, so she did not finish her dinner, but the rest was good. Slight confusion over a drinks order, but corrected. We asked for water for the table, which did take some time to arrive, and when it did, had a load of mint in it, OK if you like drinking minted water, again was not asked our preference. Overall it was nice, the view of the Thames is breath taking, but allow plenty of time if you have a deadline, as the service was quite slow, and unfortunately we had to have the bill corrected at the end of the meal. This was all done without fuss, but I feel a little more attention to detail would have given this restaurant a full star review.

    The hotel and restaurant is beautifully decorated with amazing river views but the food is unfortunately quite basic and the service all over the place. The staff completely forgot two of our mains and took ages to serve drinks even though the restaurant was almost empty.

    We visited on New Year’s Day, there were four adults and four children. The service was particularly slow, maybe there were fewer staff on that day? The food was nice enough, albeit a bit bland. The view across the river is lovely and there was a really nice chilled atmosphere. There is no parking available close by which was a bit of a pain

    We made a reservation for the 31st of December at 10 pm, when we arrived the lady told us that there were no tables available even though we booked a table. She asked us to wait 10 minutes, then she asked to wait 20, 30... we waited 40 minutes for a table that we booked. Me and my wife could see available tables all around the floor the problem was there wasn’t anyone there to clean them. When the table was ready we asked the lady if there was any available table outside and she said no when we saw that there were plenty. I know it was New Year Eve but you should have expected that it was going to be busy and this is just bad organisation. The food was good though and me and my wife spent a lovely night but we were expecting a different kind of service.

    Reserved a table at 8:30 pm at New Years Eve. Table was ready at 9:00 pm. We ordered french fries for the kids as appetizer. After asking 3 times the french fries were seved two hours later. The main menu was served. One out of the 4 dishes was incorrect. The waiter noticed That he confound the tables, removed all 4 dishes and served them at a different table again. The waiter didn‘t offer any free drink or discount. In total we can‘t recommend this place.

    Experience wasn’t as good as previous visits, staff could have been a little more attentive especially around drinks and quite a few things we wished to order were unavailable which was disappointing. The service charge added to the bill was more than a little steep too - would prefer to leave our own tip. However food was delicious as always and there is always a lovely vibe here.
