A fantastic evening spent here enjoying fabulous authentic Italian food and drink. The service was incredible, the waiting staff were attentive and friendly. The dishes were served with a description from the waiters showing that they had knowledge but also pride of what they were presenting. The atmosphere was intimate, it was also great to see Georgia Locatelli himself eating with friends.

I started with a delicious blood negroni , followed by a simple spring salad. The ingredients through meal shone in freshness and quality but some courses were a disappointment. Too many of the same ingredients throughout the menu made it difficult to choose varying courses. My partner and I both thought the pasta was fantastic but the meat course was indifferent. The service was very attentive.

Everything was on top of the expectations. From the first step into the restaurant we have been treated as the most important people they had so far, and I truly believe that is a normal practice for them. All the servers where friendly and professional. I appreciate the knowledge they have about all the ingredients they use in their dishes. Food was amazing. We had a very good dinner. Unlikely we didn't met Chef Locatelli, hopefully next time. Very recommended, we'll come back for sure.

Food is very good, popular and not common classic Italian with very little twist to modern and creative but basically classic Italian. It is for sure an interesting menu if you are not used to Italian food. I was expecting more creative cuisine both from chef Locatelli and from a Michelin star restaurant. The location is beautiful, a little noisy, probably because the restaurant has a pretty high number of seating so it is hard to keep the noise low when it is full. The wine list is very good and there is a good amount of excellent but affordable options. Service was impeccable! Glad that I was there, not sure if it is worth a second visit.

Dinner at Locanda Locatelli was an incredible experience. Starting off with the nice welcoming staff they took us to the table which was perfect. Not the classic London squeeze but a wonderful, intimate space for me and my girlfriend. They brought us a bread and grissini basket with an exquisite olive oil. As a starter we ordered the burrata and winter salad, followed by a main of risotto al barolo e castelmagno and the famous pizzoccheri. Portions were generous (as you would expect in a real Italian restaurant). Staff were friendly and took the time to explain to us the dishes and the wine. We closed dinner with two fantastic desserts a strudel and a degustazione al cioccolato. All the dishes were delicious and cooked with first quality ingredients. At the end of dinner we had the opportunity to meet chef Giorgio Locatelli. I want to say again a big thank you to him and all the staff for the truly special dining experience my partner and I had at Locanda Locatelli. We will definitely come back.

Incredible, impeccable, flavorful, talented staff, delicate and robust flavors , exquisite meal. Everything here, from being greeted to the service to the attentiveness to the refills clearing of the table the way the food looked the way the food was flavored. Everything was top-notch. We could have found a better experience anywhere. This was by far the highlight of our trip.

I would give the staff 5 stars they are fast, friendly and around all the time. The decorations and the smell of the restaurant really good. They offer welcome lemon juice was fine as well. However, the prawns were dry nothing special about it. Mushrooms were stuffed with little cheese and for somehow watery. I don’t know how to describe it but when you bite the mushroom it is mostly water. The bread under both dishes were burnt. The pasta in one word tasteless, I asked for salt just to taste something. Really wish if they can improve the ingredients or change chefs. Pros Friendly staff Lovey decorations, smell good Upstairs tables Cons Food below average Space between tables really short

The restaurant had a very nice atmosphere also the decoration is very nice. The service was really good. They give a try of the homemade lemonade that is very good. We had Manzo Piccante and Burrata & Pancetta Carbonara both very tasty and delicious.

Great service, the food was extremely quick to be served and the staff were extremely kind! We were welcomed with tasty lemonade, there was a wide variety of vegan options, and they were extra cautious with nut allergies. I would definitely recommend!

We had the bottomless brunch. Paid £10 extra for the steak and I must say I've never had better. The steaks we're cooked to perfection (mine medium and my wife's well done). Tasty charred beautifully on the outside. Chips are skin on, crispy and well seasoned. Little jug of gravy was lovely. For dessert I had the brownie which was delicious, rich but not overly sweet. My wife had the cheesecake and was very happy with it. From entering until leaving, we we're very well looked after by Melissa who kept our wine glasses topped up without ever being asked. All in all a wonderful dining experience that we shall definitely be repeating.

Lovely atmosphere in a very aesthetic restaurant, great location near Marble Arch! Fantastic value for money as we booked through FirstTable and received 50% off the food bill. Serving staff were very friendly and accommodating, especially Dario. Fun quirky serving robot too! Would’ve been better if the live music started earlier.

Enjoyed our bottomless brunch here at the Sound cafe inside the Cumberland hotel. Food was very good, as was the excellent service by our waiter, who kept our drinks fully topped up. Great setting in what used to be the Hard Rock cafe.

The food was stunning - had a 12 Oz steak and it was very tasty. The entertainment - the mowtown memoirs were excellent. The 3 star review however is because the service was terrible - I visited on a Sunday evening and it wasn't incredibly busy however the service was shockingly slow, the waiter was rude and to the point, never came to check up on the food and took over 30 minutes to get the bill at the end. I would like to come back for the food and I hope this was a one off!

The most delicious and delightful curry experience I've had ever! Definitely let your taste buds experience both the Street Food ground floor and the Restaurant down stairs! Staff very welcoming and attentive to really complete the wonderful fine dining at Roti Chai.

Rotichai is an absolute delight! I miss authentic Indian taste and search end at Rotichai. The flavors burst with authenticity, Real Indian taste in London and the service is top-notch. Staff is really nice and humble. The cozy ambiance adds to the overall experience. Don’t miss their Chilli Paneer, Kheer and Idli Sambhar – they’re divine! Must try🤤

Roti Chai in London delivered a fantastic dining experience! We started with the crispy and flavorful Chicken Sixty Five, Palak Papri Chaat, and the Gilafi Seekh Kebab which were decent. Loved their Butter Chicken which was creamy with just the right amount of spice. The Koliwada Fish Curry was the standout, and the Old Delhi Chicken Biryani was aromatic and packed with tender chicken. We finished with a deliciously creamy Mango Kulfi. The ambiance was vibrant and the service attentive.

Went to this place for lunch and their food was amazing. Price was reasonable and service was quick. Staff were very friendly as well. The food menu was simple which made it easy to order. Comparatively, they have a wider drinks menu. There's a lot of space, even downstairs. We had the butter chicken, naan, rice and daal. The daal was the best. Highly recommend this place.

The good thing about this place is how consistent they are,,,in being average. Zayna is one of the most average restaurants I have ever been to in London. I mean there was nothing good or bad to talk about this place. We went to Zayna on a weekend night and the place was almost full. Good thing we booked ahead. One thing that struck out was there was no customer with an Indian or Pakistani background. This to me is a sign that the food wasn't authentic enough. Nonetheless our hope that this place would be a good British Indian/Pakistani restaurant was dashed when they brought out the food. The chaat was fine but it was only drenched in yoghurt sauce and lacked the tamarind sauce and mint sauce which are also expected to be drizzled on top. The salmon tandoori starter was just okay. The salmon though felt fresh didn't have the flavour one expects from a good tandoori. The portion was also really small. The mains were relatively better but not by a lot. We ordered the chickpea curry, prawns masala, naan and mushroom rice. Chickpea curry was like, surprise average and I can definitely make a better Chickpea curry than what this was. Mushroom pulao rice was okay. Prawn masala was the only thing that tasted right but was loaded with oil that kind of kills the mood. At the end the experience is not worth it for me. The value for the money spent was not good so I can't recommend this place. Maybe non-Indians might like this place but to be honest there are many better British Indian restaurants in London that can satisfy both Indian and non-Indian customers really well. I will say skip this one.

When you out and about I'm London and looking for a halal place to eat this zayna is one of the best place to have piping hot desi food. Butter chicken is delicious

Ordered the Keema naan and the chicken Karahi which was lovely. Had to remind the waiter to bring us the drinks as they forgot. Other than that the place is good and the atmosphere was nice.

I had an average experience in here, the food is too spicy (hot) as expected from such cuisine. But the spices lacked the usual flavors. The prices are a bit steep. However, the place is so clean and the atmosphere is nice with relaxing music

My husband and I visited from the states and LOVED the food here. We ordered the mixed grill platter, samosas, chicken karhai, chicken biryani, and garlic & cheese naan. Especially recommend the biryani! The service was also great, they were all very kind and efficient.

Even though we had a nice meal I don't think anything we had was extraordinary or delicious. We had to wait between 25 to 30 minutes in between dishes. Even though our lovely waitress acknowledged there were delays she could not explain what was going on in the kitchen. As I mentioned the dishes were nice but to most of them we had to add salt as they were quite bland. The best dish for me was the octopus. Cooked to perfection (but bland). The tortilla was also very good. Lovely with runny egg in the centre. Both the pluma and the lamb chops arrived lukewarm at the table (we had waited for 25 minutes for those dishes). I assume they were left on the pass for a while before someone realised they had to be sent to our table. We sent back both dishes and after about 15 minutes we got new dishes. All in all it was not a great experience so I don't think I will be going back.

I came here to eat with friends for a birthday dinner. We came as a group of five. We ordered about six starters and five main courses with a few side orders. The starters were ok. The octopus croquettes was lovely and everybody enjoyed them . The jambon croquettes were nice. The manchego coquettes were ok. All three had a similar texture and taste. I could barely tell the difference between the three. The pan con tomato was standard. The sardines were lovely and had a great taste and texture. The anchovies were good but minimal on the plate.. We had an issue with the service of the drinks. It took anything from between 10-20 mins to get a drink. We had to remind the staff about our drinks on more than one occasion. The food came out when ready which was ok for the starters but not for the mains. A disjointed service I felt. The prawn risotto was on point. The pork and romesco sauce tasted lovely, portion was a tad small. The pork chimichurri was good, not enough sauce though. The cod risotto was too salty and the octopus was average, slightly too charred for my liking. The courgette flower had way too much honey. The potato bravas were average. Overall a cosy place with nice staff, but my experience wasn’t perfect. I would still recommend to others. Drinks are pricey, so I would recommend not to order any if you want to cut down the cost.

The food is delicious, there’s no doubt about it! The ambiance is nice, loud and cosy - just as you’d find in the streets of San Sebastián. The prawn rice was probably the best dish of the night, along with the croquetas! The Iberico pork was perfectly cooked, just thought that for the price, we were expecting a few more pieces. I do think it’s very authentic Spanish food, and the cheesecake is delicious - but it is slightly overpriced for the portion you get.

great atmosphere. nice dishes. nothing exciting. the staff is lovely, welcoming and sweet. we enjoyed our time there. the paellas are ok and I’d actually skip both of them. the meat was great and well seasoned, but thats the specialty of Lurra, so whats the point of going to Donostia? I had a great time, but won’t go again. the only dish that we loved, was the Tortilla. Also, had eggshell pieces in the cheesecake.. and it was too sweet.
Dor - 4 months ago

Tasty Spanish tapas, loved the gernika peppers, tuna tatare, cod and pork shoulders. The basque cheesecake is the only dessert and is a must try. A bit on the pricier side but thought was worth the experience.

I had an incredible night at the City of Quebec bar! The live drag DJs were absolutely fantastic, keeping the energy high and the crowd entertained all night. The service was excellent, with friendly and attentive staff who made sure we had everything we needed. The vibrant atmosphere and great music made it a night to remember. Highly recommended for a fun and lively evening out!

Was here with my gorgeous bubeleh over the Easter weekend out on the terrace, watching the characters off Marble Arch with a pretty tasty G’n’T. It’s further a rarity in central London: outside drinking while not near noise or cars - lovely, Pappi approves 😎

Hi lovely people, You should show the Euros! Firstly you’re a pub! And secondly, you’re advertising in morethan 2 or 3 places that you will be showing the matches but unfortunately not. You’re loosing business to your local competitors 😊 I’m sure it’s a quick fix! But definitely something positive. Looking forward to coming here to watch the matches over the coming days! With love ❤️ M

Nestled in the heart of London, this pub offers a refreshing escape and is just off the main hustle and bustle of Marble Arch/Oxford Street. From the moment I entered, the welcoming staff set the stage for an enjoyable evening. The team's enthusiasm and attentive service created a genuinely inviting experience, making me feel right at home. They could not have been friendlier. A great assortment of craft beers and lagers on the taps and in the fridge. A welcoming and modern interior with traditional pub features creates a comfortable setting, making it an ideal spot to unwind. Whether you're seeking a reliable after-work hangout or a place to mingle with friends, this pub seamlessly combines a decent beer selection with a laid-back ambiance, ensuring a memorable experience for anyone exploring London's pub scene. It's a gem in the heart of the city that I wholeheartedly recommend for those looking to balance work and play in style. Oh and thank you for the T-shirt :)

The atmosphere was exquisite, with very nice decoration and light music to accompany the place. Food took an hour to come out but was good and enjoyable. Staff seemed to be a bit all over the place, but were friendly.

Had a great time here. The staff were friendly, the food was good, the vibe was good as well. Personally ordered a tomato pasta and was delighted with the order. However, the price was a bit expensive in my opinion.

Staff were friendly and quick to take our orders, however we were a bit disappointed by the strenuous waiting time and the overall food quality. The garlic bread was delicious, but when it came to our main dishes we were left with an odd taste in our mouths and a stomachs ache. Additionally, we were forced to wait 20 minutes for our starters and another 15 for our mains, which isn’t the best considering we were starving. Overall, we paid £50+ for a small 2 course meal, which isn’t the best for those who are staying on a budget. But do come here if you are looking for a relaxed atmosphere with friendly staff!

Decoration and atmosphere is quite ok, that’s why we get in. But the food is disappointing!!! If you love Italian food, skip it, really salty and oily food, not tasty as all, and very unhealthy!!

Great place to get a beer and good plain food to eat. Reasonable prices, friendly atmosphere. Sunday roast is a good value. Sticky toffee pudding with custard is our favorite dessert.

Nice cozy pub. Cod fish and chips with mashed peas were good. Fairly thick breading. Thick fries. Good dry consistency on the peas. House bitter was a great beer. Not inexpensive. Got there just a little before 17:00 and were lucky to get a seat for our family of five. Staff was very friendly.

Great pub food and great vibe. The food here in this pub exceeded expectations, went in for some traditional food of steak pie and fish and chips. They did not disappoint. The pie was full of flavour and plenty of filling. The fish was crispy as well as the chips being great too. Would recommend for a drink and classic pub food.

Great food, friendly staff. Ordered the bacon cheddar burger and the Korean chicken burger and they were both excellent. Good selection of beer. Would happily reccomend

Very nice atmosphere and traditional layout. It is a very old pub but it is certainly well maintained. We had drinks only. The staff were really helpful and friendly. I certainly recommend this place if you are looking for a nice time to enjoy a drink a good chat with friends/family/colleagues.
