Love Big Easy.. been here so many times with friends, family and couples. The place is great with nice atmosphere, but recently service is lacking. One of our ordered on 14/12/2024 the waiter got it wrong but was managed and sorted by manager. So overall happy with it and doesn’t put me off to continue with this place. Merry Christmas 2024

Amazing experience at Smith & Wollensky! Food, service, setting, nothing could be faulted. Every member of staff was more than helpful and attentive to our needs, friendly and knowledgable. The food was amazing, so fresh. We had the chateaubriand, fries, peppercorn sauce and seasonal vegetables to share and every inch was perfect. We shared the cheesecake for dessert and enjoyed this with fresh cream which is made by the chefs, sensational!!

Took my boyfriend here for his birthday meal and we had such a good time. The food was amazing, service was really good and the setting felt very special. It is on the pricier side (especially if you're having alcohol) but the food is very reasonably priced for the quality and there are cheaper options if that's what you're looking for. Would highly recommend

Lovely little place, great for before theatre. Welcoming smile on arrival, prompt service and fab food. Not a huge menu which I appreciate. Pisco sours are spot on & Sea bass and tuna ceviche really good. Those fabulous little warm dumplings filled with cheese which we had to start, were very tasty, just like in Brazil! Will go back & would definitely recommend the food here.

Went here during their Soft launch, it was really well done. The ambiance and the decorations really made the restaurant, the wait staff are really attentive and deliver everything in a timely manner. The food was very good, especially the tuna tartare and tiramisu! Really recommend it to anyone going.
