2/5
Has a table booked in the cocktail bar for 8 o’clock and a table in the restaurant for 9:15. Cocktails good and got onto our restaurant table at the time booked. Staff served us drinks and took our order quite quickly but the whole experience went downhill from there!! Starters came after about 20 minutes (which is fine), plates cleared away when done, but, mains eventually came out at 10:45!!!!! Far far far to long a time. To be fair front of house staff apologetic and did everything they could but not a lot they could do when the food just wasn’t there!! The food was good, no denying it, but, that’s really no good when the overall experience was so poor. Bill about £500 for four which is fine when the whole experience stacks up but not with such poor timing and we ended up not enjoying our night out. Wouldn’t return to any of Jason Atherton’s establishments I’m afraid.

    In a western restaurant in Chinatown, I specially asked for a steak, which was the chef's selection of the day, and a special red wine, which tasted good, the beef was very tender, and it was five-point ripe, not old.

    Social Eating House current chef Daniel Birk was originally born as a pastry chef, and in the desserts of the SEAH family, this little "basis" can be seen everywhere, and the sweetness is always running through the exquisite little surprise. Break the crispy and soft coconut Pavlova, close a mouthful of mango sled and coriander leaves, and wait for the sweet licorice flavor of musk to penetrate into all this intimately. There are also slightly bitter powdered sleds, with sweet sorrel and a slightly sharp mint jelly, clear and unremarkable. There are several staple foods that are not inferior, homemade buttons large orecchiette pasta is flexible, mixed with smoked ham, anchovies each salty, with a few garlic fried purple broccoli, covered with a layer of sheep cheese, delicious. Another roast foie gras sauce, with Japanese-style juice, kunbu, pine nuts and radish and other materials, fresh and warm, complement each other. Overall evaluation: delicious high score, worth a visit, in line with my expectations of rice one star.

    "I've really enjoyed the food from the set menu - ceviche and the dessert were super tasty and genuinely creative combinations. However, the fish main was not available, so a different, slightly inferior fish was offered. It was beautifully cooked still, but that was a shame. My main criticism is that the portion size, in particular for mains and desserts, is way too small, even for fine dining standards. A very narrow sliver of cod for a main and a tiny triangle of pain perdu (I mean, it is a very cheap bread dessert to start with!) is not quite right."

    We had book the set menu which was valid between 5.45pm to 6.30pm. Our booking was for 6.30pm. We were greeted promptly and taken to our table. We asked for the offer menu which we had booked for, as we were only given the al carte menu. The waitress called the manager over, we were told as we were late, we arrived at 6.31pm, the menu is not not valid but he would honor it.We then felt we were penalised for having the set menu. We felt rushed through our meal.
