    Steak was dry and over cooked, which, as a steak restaurant, is pretty fundamental. Service was fine and other food was okay.

    Very good steaks, Ribeye and Fillet. The ambience was good with every table taken, and there was a good vibe. The service was very good and it is so close to Waterloo station that travel home was easy. I will definitely use this restaurant and chain again.

    We use this restaurant regularly - staff are pleasant and helpful. It caters for GF requirements. The food is good value for money and there is a good varied choice. Only gripe is that this is second time of visiting when the coffee machine has not been working so no coffee available.

    Below average food at over average prices. Shame as other reviews had me thinking this was somewhere we could frequent as it is so close to Waterloo station.
