Had one dish sent back as not to descriptio n and the another sent back to be reheated as everyone else was hungry and just wanted to eat.
The dish not to descriptio n was brought back without being reheated so went cold and the other that was cold, was brought back and then we realised had ingredient the chef wanted to argue and mutter about us under his breath.
The kitchen team don't wear any hair nets or anything and insist on playing with their phones and touching the food without washing their hands which encourages bacteria and the like to spread.
Was really looking forward to getting desert as I had heard great things but after such an outrageous level of service and lack of basic respect for hygiene, didn't want to stay for it.
Poor quality service and food for what you pay.Ordered for four people, we were rushed through our starters and the mains were sitting on the side resulting on them getting cold.

The Quality Chop House review: A victory of simplicity, elegance ...

One of the big advantages of working in the charity sector is that the office is nearly always in a ‘trendy’ neighbourhood, because most of these are also ‘up and coming’ or (some might say) ‘cheap’.
After moving on from that job, I’ve rarely been back to see how the place has changed, and so when a friend asked if I fancied trying one of the few restaurants still holding the same name as six years ago, the Quality Chop House, I was curious.
The wooden framed windows and frosted glass have the feel of a 1940’s war movie – feeding the factory workers as our boys struggled overseas.
The main event was one of the Chop House’s signatures, Longhorn mince on dripping toast.
The Quality Chop House can be found at 92-94 Farringdon Road, London EC1R 3EA

, in particular Hayler’s claim that “It is nice to see a restaurant aiming high on culinary ambition, at a time when so many London openings are burger joints or hipster places trying to impress diners with how cool they are rather than the quality of their cooking.”
Is London not so hot right now precisely because there are so many different and exciting talents at work, all trying new things and (mostly) seeing them succeed, from the bottom to the middle and the middle to the top?
More that its particular range of ambition encompasses a “reasonably priced,” “Brexit-boshing,” “glorious European, Middle Eastern mishmash of small plates” — all, crucially, “with an extra oomph” that serves to elevate them from the mundane Morito clones clogging certain parts of town (cough.
In a digression that could be addressed directly to the city, Dent explains that she chose to review Tuyo in the first place “because London is full of chefs who cook with no heart, making an opera of their meagre talents.”
Picture Take Jay Rayner’s random-ass experience at Picture — a four year-old restaurant in Fitzrovia that proves that it’s not just the new places that are doing things worth our attention.
REVIEW: PERKIN REVELLER - London On The Inside
food
Perkin p}(‘0.6(” Reveller surely has one of the best locations of any restaurant in the city, perched right on the river Thames, in front of the Tower of London and in the shadow of Tower Bridge.
On the flipside of course, surrounded by all these world famous attractions, it’s not a place you’d expect to find a restaurant worth shouting about, but happily Perkin Reveller is no overpriced tourist trap.
The restaurant is simply decorated and also features a great outdoor terrace and floor-to-ceiling windows inside which make the most of the surrounding views.
The menu is focused on seasonal British classics with a few European elements thrown in for good measure.
The food here won’t win any prizes for originality but if you’re in the area and need a decent meal in a bloomin’ good setting, then Perkin Reveller is a good choice.
Review of London Italian restaurant Theo Randall at The ...
staff food menu drinks value
He worked from 1989 at The River Café for seventeen years, working his way up to head chef and bringing the restaurant a Michelin star in 1997 in the process.
It is hard enough navigating a large wine list trying to find some label that that you know and like, so while this kind of whimsical idea probably sounded good in a brainstorming session after a few glasses of Chianti, it does not translate well to the page.
Sample wines were Alta Quota Gran Sasso 2010 at £54 for a bottle that you can find in the high street for £17, Roccalini Barbaresco 2011 at £80 compared to a retail price of £22, and Isole e Olena Chardonnay Collezione de Marchi 2013 at £100 for a label that will set you back £31 in a shop.
For those with the means, Cannubi Boschis Sandrone 1999 was a chunky £380 for a bottle that costs £130 to buy in the street, and Gaja Sorri Tildin 1998 was an unnecessarily greedy £780 for a label whose current market price is £231, 3.8 times retail once service is included, and a cash mark-up of £646 in all; nice work if you can get it.
Overall this was a most enjoyable meal, the cooking precise and dishes full of flavour, and the new room is a better setting for Mr Randall’s understated talents.

food ambience drinks desserts
So, this said, James Cochran opening his second place, serving his lauded and heavily distinctive Scottish/Jamaican menu, in the Angel Central Shopping Centre, N1, is not a problem to me.
Anyway, I located James Cochran N1 eventually despite the ground-floor entry being confusingly home to the takeaway counter, which one must walk past.
On a Friday night, in spite of remarkably decent cooking at the original James Cochran EC3, the place was deserted.
The only thing dragging people in is James Cochran’s name and he’s not here.

Snackistan, London SE15: 'How could I resist?' – restaurant review ...
food drinks staff
The juice bar that imports its Med-influenced food from the super-hot restaurant next door?
Presentation is hilarious: a “small” meze plate, a steal at four quid, is laden with muhammarah (a luscious, spiced walnut dip), falafel, salad shirazi (with cucumber, tomato and mint), nutty tabbouleh scented with, I think, orange-flower water, thick yoghurt spiked with spinach and topped with dried rose petals, homemade hummus dusted with sumac, wizened little black olives and sharp pickles (“Iranians will pickle anything”), plus warm bread.
She seems to be able to turn the humblest ingredient into something sparky and vivacious: florets of broccoli and cauliflower, say, with cherry tomatoes and frills of kale and spinach, sharp with lemon and rich with garlicky tahini and sesame seeds, the juices soaking on to rough, flat barley bread, is so much more than the sum of its (many) parts.
“Albaloo pulao” is Butcher’s interpretation of the classic Persian cherry rice, the long, nutty grains of basmati given a delicious kitchen sink approach with, in addition to dried morellos, an almost gin fragrance by fennel and juniper.
Instead of dessert – although I’m most taken with the idea of a Turkish delight sundae or Iranian faloodeh (sweet frozen vermicelli) – we have more halloumi, this time fried with figs and pumpkin seed kernels and served on warm bread, with a sticky, dark juice of sour cherry and pomegranate on top.
