    My girlfriend had been wanting lobster for nearly a year and we couldn't find anywhere for it but she said herself upon eating here "this is the best thing I've ever tasted". It made her day honestly and the staff were amazing! We had a few staff members come over, they were all lovely and served with a smile- I had the sirloin steak and it was perfect, obviously my girlfriend had the lobster and absolutely loved it. Cocktails were delicious too, and it was lovely to have water on the table throughout, they were very attentive and kept the refill glass full. We will absolutely be back, my girlfriend even asked me when we would be 😂 Thank you hawksmoor for a lovely meal, and for a delicious steak and lobster.

    We enjoyed our food and the service was pleasant but a bit haphazard as the restaurant was so busy. For example, we had to ask for tap water three times and we were initially billed for 4 extra drinks.

    We were late on a Sunday and the restaurant was quiet, so that impacted the ambience somewhat, but everything else was very good. Very happy with food, wine and service.
