   All good, great food, service, value and atmosphere. Not sure what’s going on with the service charge. It was included which is fine but then they ask you for additional service charge and claim the included portion is not shared with them and only for the bar staff? Doesn’t sound legit. Pls check and clarify.

   I read multiple "poor" and "terrible" reviews on TripAdvisor that I almost cancelled my reservation. I am so delighted that I proceeded undeterred. My two dinner guests and I had a fabulous time. Great, attentive service by management and staff of many different nations. No request was too much with the food and drinks orders. We thoroughly enjoyed our meals: I am of a disposition where I have little or no interest in photographing a meal serving plate, so no visual evidence. I would not hesitate to return to Smith's Bar & Grill. Yes, the toilets are clean too.

    Been here numerous times over the last few years and we are never disappointed. Staff and managers are very friendly and helpful and the a la carte menu and set menu is always both varied and appetising. Although a british cuisine the food choices are multicultural and delicious. Never had a bad meal and look forward to every culinary experience. During the day it makes a great place for breakfast which is exceptional around here in Paddington whilst lunch is also a class apart from the usual fare. Recommend it highly!
