    We had a nice table in the mezzanine, which we really enjoyed. We were meeting with friends who really needed to unwind from some things going on in their life. Our waiter / bartender gave us great service with time when we needed it and attention when we needed it. The food and drinks were very good. The brioche bun dessert is fantastic - highly recommend.

    I’ve eaten at British Bankets numerous times over the years, and always have loved it. The food this time wasn’t seasoned and undercooked. Our servers were horrible as well. Won’t be back.

    Even though we’re locals, BBC was never on our dining radar. We needed a last minute Friday night reservation and BBC had openings. Food, drinks and ambience was great. Service was wonderful by Ethan. The dining room decor was beautiful and noise level just right to feel you’re dining out but didn’t have to yell across the table. We’ll definitely go back.

    Our server was amazing - I can’t believe I don’t remember her name. She was warm, just the right level of attentive, and timed our dishes perfectly. Our food was very good. Prices were steep even for the area but that wasn’t wholly unexpected. Only complaint is the way they have the tables placed - I had someone kicking or noticeably bumping my chair every 5 mins (for some reason the area between our table and the one next to us was treated like a thoroughfare by both staff and diners alike). That really detracted from the ambiance of a place that charges $30 for fish and chips.
