    The food and service at Chefs Warehouse was really good. My choice for 1st course was my absolute favourite of the night - it was the Tuna, goodness it was melt in the mouth kind of fabulous (I think I would have been quite happy having the tuna for all the courses). However, having said that, I cannot fault any of the other dishes, it's just that the tuna was my favourite. 2nd Course I had the Beef Flat Iron - another lovely dish, although presentation was lacking and I think another 2 slices of the beef would have been better value. I had a hard time choosing my 3rd course, I ended up with the Trout and Lemon Risotto, which was good, but I ended up suffering "menu choice remorse" is that even a thing? See my husband ordered the lamb belly and boy that was packed with flavour. Dessert, I opted for Spring which was Banana Creme Pâtissiers, passionfruit, berries - it was a lovely fresh ending to the meal. I found the servers to be the right amount of attentive and very pleasant. I love that I can't complain about anything. I do, however, have an observation with regard to the acoustics of the venue, it can be quite loud when full of people chatting away.

    We sat in the top mezzanine section near the top service bar, there was no music ,incredibly bright light. Table were complete devoid of anything , basic there was not even a candle. The decor was shocking there was a strange mix of wood panels with the worst art possible. If they were going for a clever Juxtaposition of 80,s with a UK ,USA pub vibe they going to need to work a lot harder. They need to gut that floor and get it redone by the guys who did the bottom floor. This was a special occasion and we know and love all the restaurants in the group but this one is unfortunately really letting the whole group down. We won’t be back. .

    We booked for our anniversary and had had lots of recommendations to go there for a special occasion. To be honest we were a bit disappointed. The portion sizes were tiny for the price we paid and despite being busy and having a good buzz the seating we were appointed were uncomfortable and we were very closely packed to the two tables either side of us. Although the staff were polite we were interrupted so many times, constantly being asked how the food was, I understand this is the high level service they’re offering but being asked questions every 5 minutes kept disrupting our meal. The food was good but there just wasn’t enough, especially with the lamb dish the potato was about the same size at the meat!
