AQUA SHARD REVIEWS
Came here to celebrate my wife's birthday. Had an amazing table beside the window, with a mirrored pillar beside us, so it felt like our own private dining area. Despite a rainy evening, we had fantastic views across London. Our waitress was lovely - friendly and attentive. The food was well presented and tasted great. Would be glad to return in future. Thanks for a lovely evening.
From the first moment you feel taken care by the staff. We arrived ten minutes early and we have been accommodated on a waiting table, it was comfortable and we got served at the table with drinks from the bar. Our table was just in front of the window, a glass wall from the floor up to the ceiling which let you fully enjoy the breathtaking view over the city. Service, food and drinks are at top level quality in all their extent, and after the three course meal proposed in the menu we were definitely satisfied also for what it concerns the quantity. Wine pairing with each course is a must. Overall an extremely pleasant experience I would recommend to all those who appreciate excellent cuisine.
I came here with my daughter as a treat and I can not fault anything. We were taken to our table which was by the window and received 5 star service from start to finish. The food was delicious and as it is a fine dining restaurant I thought the portion sizes were just right. My daughter didn’t stop smiling all night and in the taxi back to the hotel admitted her cheeks hurt. I will definitely come back again and recommend to anyone

BERNERS TAVERN REVIEWS
A must while in London. The atmosphere is lovely and makes you feel like you’re in high society. When the atmosphere and service is top-notch, you half expect the food to slack because you’re usually paying for the experience, but that’s not the case here. Everything was delicious! We had the Nosey Neighbour cocktail and a glass of champagne from the cart, then had the ribeye, mixed salad, roasted lemon sole (highly recommend), broccoli; and our daughter got the breaded chicken from the kids menu. We ended our meal with the Coconut Alaska. We haven’t finished a single meal while in London, but we finished everything here. My waist line is yelling at me, but my mouth is happy. Highly recommend!!
Absolutely brilliant place, I love the decor and general amazing ambience. Attention to detail in every aspect. The staff are amazing and the venue is phenomenal. I could not find fault, from the drink choice to the luxury food, amazing food!!! This is an unassuming place and the name definitely doesn't do it justice, but that in itself is great. I would highly recommend this place as a restaurant, or an opulent event space with versatile use.
Firstly, I was astonished by the decor and environment here. Beautifully setup. The menu is also well designed. Experience is extremely nice and food of course gorgeous.

DINNER BY HESTON BLUMENTHAL REVIEWS
Dinner by Heston is not just a dining experience; it's an enlightening journey for the senses. The service was exemplary, and the staff's genuine passion for food shone through in their detailed explanations of each dish. The signature Meat Fruit dish lived up to its reputation, transcending my usual reservations about chicken liver with its delightful natural sweetness. The salmon and scallops were flawlessly cooked, and the beef fillet left an indelible memory with its caramelized perfection. The desserts were a visual feast, presented with impeccable artistry. The only drawback was the choice of furniture, as the seat and table design fell short of expectations. It reminded me of my initial visit to the restaurant for breakfast several years ago. Nonetheless, the culinary brilliance overshadowed this minor flaw. Dinner by Heston is an experience that broadens horizons and delights the palate.
Definitely worth going to try at least once. Service was exceptional, although have had better elsewhere. We had the tasting menu it was filling and very well executed although a few dishes we more salty than we'd personally have liked. Decor has some nice touches too. Some love bits I haven't shared so they are a suprise. Would love to go again in the future.
Excellent coronation tasting menu with full explanation on the history of the menu. The chicken pot pie was small, but particularly very tasty. The wine pairing was superb and enjoyable. Waiters and waitresses were attentive and gave full attention.
