It has become so catered to children and babies it should no longer be considered fine dining. It’s understandable that children will be around, not a problem, but crying babies and children running around is not the atmosphere people want when you charge £100 for steak. Also, spread the tables around don’t continually seat babies by one table. I do not recommend, not worth the price.

Cynthia and Sebastian took care of us for our reservation and we were so well taken care of. Cynthia was attentive and checked in on us at all times throughout the meal. We had the tomahawk to share, and highly recommend if you come with a big appetite. It was delightful to have the table side experience with the tomahawk. Sebastian helped choosing a wine and is incredibly knowledgable. He was patient and the pride and passion he holds in his work is clear to see in how attentive he was with us to ensure we had a wine to beautifully complement our meal. A truly unforgettable experience.

Unfortunately we could not eat as issue with the kitchen but staff dealt with it exceptionally
Smith & Wollensky LondonResponded on 16 November 2024
Dear Michael, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. While I’m glad to hear that our team handled the situation exceptionally, I am disappointed that the circumstances, which were unfortunately beyond our control, led you to rate us so poorly. We always aim to provide the best experience possible, and it’s frustrating for us and our guests when unexpected issues disrupt that. However, your acknowledgement of our team’s efforts means a lot, as we take great pride in how we respond to challenges. We hope to welcome you back soon and provide the full dining experience you were looking forward to. If there’s anything we can do to make that happen, please don’t hesitate to reach out. You have my details. Warm regards, Falko
