“ We tried the chateaubriand for a change and it was cooked to perfection at rare. Cajun fries are v good on the side. On the pricey side, but same as all top steak places in london and the meat was quality. Complimentary bubbles for our celebration was a nice touch! ”
“ A lovely place to dine in. Located in a not so busy street near embankment, charing cross area. Staff were nice, they will not rush and allow you to take your time in ordering and eating. Food also tasted good ”
“ Special Birthday Dinner 9th February 2025 On 20/11/24 I booked dinner for my family member birthday. I spoke to Bernadette to explain that my family member is allergic to all nuts. She reassured me that that my family member would be fine. I also spoke to Susanna a manager who said they cater for customers who are allergic to nuts. On 09/02/25 we dined at 7:30 pm. A young gentleman came to our table and introduced himself as Richard the manager. I spoke to him about my family member nut allergies and he stated that my family member would be fine. We both asked for our Ribeye steak to be well done. However, when our steaks arrived i immediately used the knife to cut up the meal and was alarmed that inside the steak was bloody. I immediately called the manager and he took our plates containing the steaks said he will ask the chef to cook new steaks well done. After a while the manager returned with our steaks and chips. We were very impressed because the steaks were well done and succulent. We would like to thank the waiter Mack who was very attentive. The steaks were excellent. Due to my family member is allergic to all nuts the manager gave a complimentary dessert wine to celebrate her birthday and also gave 40 percent discount off the dinner. We were very impressed and told the manager that because of the excellent customer service we will attend the restaurant again. ”

“ Excellent wine menu, delicious starters, great sides & premium steaks. The steaks were cooked to perfection, seasoned well and flavoursome, and the cheesecake was pretty good, too. The restaurant also had a nice ambience, attentive service, and overall, everything was executed well. Certainly better than Hawksmoor and certainly on par with Goodmans. ”
“ One of the best dining experiences we've ever had. My husband and I have been very lucky to have eaten in some of the best restaurants in the world and Smith and Wollensky has gone straight to the top of that list. We visited December 10th 2024 and upon walking in, it's like being transported to 1920's New York. The decor and ambience is superb. We went as part of our honeymoon celebration and they treated us like royalty. Champagne quickly arrived at our table and every single course of food was utterly outstanding. The balance of flavours and quality of food was totally exquisite. We are still in awe. We can honestly say we were sad to see the night end (which never happens)! Thank you so so so much to all the staff, but especially Kristian for making our visit so special. We are already planning our next trip back, we can't wait! ”
