I really enjoyed the ambiance of this restaurant. The food was mainly great and I ordered classic burger and in the past have had it cooked 'well done' but on this recent visit it was 'medium' which was disappointing. I suppose I could have asked for the burger to be cooked again but I left the raw parts. That was a shame as these burgers are the best, lovely taste and fresh. I'll order it again and hopefully, next time it will be cooked perfectly for my taste and not the chef's !! The ginger beer non alcoholic drink was delicious and I would visit again.
Had a great evening. Food was amazing and service very attentive. Will defo be going back there again. We had our table all night and never felt like they wanted us to leave. Great night out.
Excellent restaurant with a great selection of fish. The seabass ceviche for starters and the skate as a main are definite recommendations. The service is friendly and welcoming.
Amazing atmosphere and really great food. I love how everything is locally and the service is great. Booking in advance is always going to be the best because you're guaranteed a table. Can't wait to go there for brunch soon :)
Excellent attentive service on arrival at a very busy 9.00pm on a Saturday. We were soon seated and our order taken. The red snapper to share was perfectly cooked and delicious. One minor quibble would be that sides - fries and mixed roast vegetables were small and somewhat uninspiring. Overall though we enjoyed eating here a lot and came away regretting that we did not have anything similar closer to home.
It was ok, service a bit haphazard so could be better but nice atmosphere and choice of food. Would visit again for a special treat.
I had the cherry tomato omelette and a freshly squeezed juice. The omelette was small and warm (could have been larger and hotter) and served with a dry bap. Nothing to write home about. Limited brunch menu.
Amazing food as always. So fresh and lots of flavour, the simplicity and quality of the food speaks for itself. Great music as well makes for a wicked evening
We experienced great service, and I had a lovely burger, but only okay chips. Recommend the Market Twinkle cocktail. We really enjoyed our lunch and would recommend it.
This was my second visit to the restaurant for dinner, and neither experience has disappointed – friendly, courteous, attentive staff; great ambiance; excellent food; and very good value for money.
The service was good and the restaurant had a lovely ambience with a mixed crowd. The food was simply cooked effectively but a bit expensive.
Brilliant food, really good service. Really pleased we went! With 5 kids and two adults all pleased this place must be doing something right. And 3 of us can be quite fussy about what we eat. The squid was superb and the pick of the meals. T-bone steak was fab too. Recommended.
Great food, fantastic atmosphere. Superb staff who understood the customers needs. Would have no hesitation recommending to any of my close friends and fsmily. One hundred percent
What a lovely dining experience. Fantastic fresh food cooked to prfection in a warm setting. Will be returning very soon for another fresh fish dish.
Food is nice here but there is always a long wait for it and wrap up warm, it's always really cold! Staff really nice though.
Went for a meal with my boyfriend and my mum. Great atmosphere, lovely food and perfect cocktails. Pricey, but worth it for a treat :)
Breakfast was very good, coffee was ok needs a little work. Service was friendly and efficient. We will return for another try. Dinner here is superb.
Great food. Restaurant had nice mix of modern and traditional décor. It was quite expensive at over £100 for 2 people, however I felt from a value for money point of view it was a nice treat.
The food was good but service was slightly slower and not as good as usual... We were a party of 5 and asked whether we could be moved to another table as we were sat just below the air conditioning unit and we were feeling cold. We were told that the free table was booked but for hours the table remained free and later on it was occupied by a couple. We asked for the air conditioning to be lowered but it made little difference...
I have been here a few times now and really want to love it as the restaurant decor is great but have left a bit disappointed each time. I went the other day for brunch and the service was poor - lots of staff but they weren't very proactive. Friendly enough but you don't feel well looked after. I also think you can get better food elsewhere in the area. My boyfriend had the salmon, squash and poached egg and I had to ask if it was meant to be like that as there were 3 small salmon flakes and literally 2 small cubes of squash. They did take it back and improve it but they shouldnt dish anything out like that. The couple next to us said theirs was the same and they were also disappointed. Shame. Could be so much better if they just tighten up on these things.
A lovely Valentine's meal. The fish was gorgeous and the chocolate fondant is to die for! Great service from the staff form the beginning to the end.
Lovely food and cocktails, food served on a board but one of us requested a plate instead that was no problem. Only criticism is that we all agreed that the mains should come with one side and salad optional or as a side choice as fish and salad don't really go well. Lamb was tender and everything else lovely , the staff very friendly
Great place - decent sized table, good food, reasonably priced. Good service apart from when we were trying to pay the bill which took an annoyingly long time.
Brilliant service. Can float onto the bar in the restaurant after your brunch! Love this place opposite the park
We've eaten here several times before and it never fails to deliver on quality, atmosphere and value. A great place for lunch or dinner, book ahead as it gets busy at the weekend.
Delicious foood, we had all fish. Good drinks selection. A bit chilly. Service good, A little pricey, but that only matters if everything else is crap.
Brilliant experience, service Great, Venue Fantastic! The food was lovely..I had Chops & my friend had the vegi option. The house red was superb, defo go there again on Friday night.
Loved the burger with shitake mushrooms and the strawberry lemonade. Can't wait to go back to try something from the fish counter! Great service - given bread when they thought we'd been waiting too long but then the burgers came straight away!
Really lovely, delicious food and staff were very kind, attentive and friendly. Only downside was that the food was a little pricey, but would definitely come here again!!
Fantastic as usual!!! Great food and wonderful service! Thanks Crystal Palace Market for a wonderful birthday evening. We would recommend this restaurant and will definitely return!
Excellent food and service. Not the cheapest place, but absolutely worth it. I had the chicken breast which was cooked to absolute perfection. Totally recommendable!
Great food, great wine, and great company. - I couldn't of asked for a better evening! service was good, and was great that we were able to see the kitchen and what the chefs did with our food. Everything 100% fresh!
Great tasting food, particularly enjoyed the goats cheese and beetroot starter. I will definitely be back to try some more from the menu.
Our friend has Celiac disease and cannot eat gluten. When we asked for the options, there was not much available. First, it was suggested to have the naked burger - then it turned out that the burgers also contain gluten. Hence, we suggested to the waiter to take the naked burger, but replace it with salmon as that was already on the menu as of 12:00 for the children. The waiter agreed and our order went in. Then two more waitresses came and we had to argue with them to make it happen. It came to the moment where I asked whether we should just leave if they cannot even do something simple like that. All the fuzz was about the kitchen for lunch only opening at 13:00 - but the children's menu starts at 12:00! Even though we got there at 12:00, we only got our food at 12:55 -- maybe we should have just waited until 13:00 anyway. Apart from the boy who served us, the service was very poor. The food was ok, but severly overpriced - like their butchers. We will not go back and we will make sure that all our friends are aware of this very poor service. You would think that all restaurants in London these days can handle gluten-free options ... especially the once where you pay enough. Either way, there are plenty of very friendly restaurants in CP that do not make anything about glutenfree options.
The whole booking process was easy by only filling in a form. Then you would get confirmation via email. The staff were friendly and courteous. The food quality was superb!
The service wasn't quite as good as usual. but it is still one of my favorite restaurants, lovely decor and great location. Food is fresh and tasty and goes very well with their selection of cocktails.
Loved it! Service was great. The food was very tasty. Already planning another visit
Excellent food, excellent service and excellent ambience! Top marks! we visited with our daughter and family and staff were very good with children, very nice.
Very nice however, the 'wooden board' that my veggie burger was served on was ugly/dreadful. Why do they use them? They look old and unhygienic.
The food is good. Really good. And generous too. Service is so uneven though. Waited way too long to be greeted as the woman at the greeting station was on the phone - not even eye contact. The waitress was far too keen to take our orders (it should have been obvious we weren't looking at menus), and there was a stuff-up with a drinks order. I also had some shell in my ceviche (which, to be fair, was comp-ed). This place could be brilliant - but they all just need to lift their game. Consistency is key.
Great service, atmosphere, and food! Staff made some really good recommendations that we were really pleased that we took them up on. Would definitely return.
Amazing fresh food with an exquisite menu. Really friendly staff and a beautiful meal with really fun cocktails; I would definitely reconebd this restaurant to friends
Excellent service and food, I had forgotten how good a fillet stake can be if cooked well, the oyster starter was amazing and the desert was one of the best.
Lovely food and good quality, locally sourced but the sweet potato fries were not fries at all, hey we're too soft and big ! Apart from that fine
