    Enjoyed a really good Sunday lunch here today. Started with Burratta and Coppa salad, then roast beef with all the trimmings and finished with spotted dick and custard. The food was fantastic, service attentive yet discreet and the interior is really pleasant too. I would highly recommend a visit!

    We had initially booked for 1930 but needed to move it for later and the team was very accommodating. The food was very good. We had the scallop starter and the lobster thermidor to share. The lobster was delicious, and the scallops were too..however, the flavour of the breadcrumbs felt a tiny bit overpowering compared to the sweet scallops. The pistachio gellato was soothing! The ambience coulda been a bit down-lit given the vibe/feel the decor is going for. I must make a special mention of our waiter, Elliot. They were very helpful with the questions we had and helped us through the menu. They provided excellent service and made this time at the restaurant even more amazing. Small touches like making sure our water glasses were topped up just made the experience more personalised.

    Hubby's birthday so quick trip to London to celebrate and booked a table at Seven Dials for lunch. Food was well presented and tasted amazing. Sides are for sharing so three between two was ample and could probably got away with two. Hubby enjoyed his can of beer, Hawksmoor own brand, and I loved the fact there was a decent choice of non-alcoholic beverages. The young lady serving us was great, even singing Happy Birthday to hubby when presenting him with his chocolates and birthday candle.

    I never write a review however, being celiac, as well as my daughter and dairy free, this restaurant excellent flavors the food was phenomenal. The service was even phenomenal. My daughter and I are also allergic to shellfish and they made sure everything was allergy friendly. This is one of our first restaurants in London, where we didn’t have any cross-contamination and did not feel sick after our meal. Highly recommend if you have celiac disease.
