    We travel to London about 4 times a year and always make time to visit Maxwell's. As ever this visit did not disappoint. The staff are all very friendly and professional, they acknowledge you on arrival and when leaving. Their friendliness always feels genuine. We ordered 2 cocktails which were lovely, along with a steak fajita and wagyu burger which were both perfectly cooked and delicious. The price is definitely value for money. We look forward to our next visit in September when we're back in London.

    Fabulous restaurant, excellent value especially for central London. The ambience is lovely and cheerful with great music but not too loud. Service was fast and portions generous. Staff were friendly and could not have been more attentive. An all around great place

    Food was good but the service was poor, had to ask three people for a drink before we actually got the drink. Not very swift with taking our order once we got the menus. Would I return probably not

    I’d booked last minute booking for 6 people on a busy Saturday afternoon as we wanted to eat before a show. Our table was 4:15 and the team were super accommodating (moved our table) as we had a guest with mobility issues, that made the initial booty tricky. Staff were very friendly but not OTT and food was fabulous. Everyone enjoyed the meal, drinks and ambiance. Family group aged 20 to 60. Well done Maxwells Team 👏👏

    Maxwells is in a great location. The service is both quick and efficient with willing and helpful staff. The food and drink is good, not overwhelming but good. Maxwells is worth a visit or two. I’ve been about six times and will certainly return.

    The staff were all really friendly and welcoming and attentive. Did not have to wait too long for our food. I had chicken fajitas and my friends had the burger and the chicken burger. We all had a child's portion of chocolate brownie dessert. Everything was delicious. Great music playing in the background. Would definitely come back here again.
