    We had a great time doing Christmas dinner at the Hard Rock. Fun to be at such an iconic spot surrounded by all that memorabilia. Our server was great. Food was hot and prompt. Drinks were tasty. It was super crowded as you might expect so it was loud but we were tucked away in a corner table which made it a bit better for me.

    It’s become our new regular spot as a family. Brenda, Alesio and Veronica were especially lovely this time (apologies if the spelling is wrong). Haven’t had a single bad experience at Big Easy Chelsea so far and as a family we always look forward to the next visit as soon as we leave. We have a New Years reservation booked already! Food, company, and vibe always fantastic. Bravo Big Easy Chelsea x

    We have eaten at PJ’s at Christmas time several times before and it has always been excellent on all counts. This time round it was very good but below its usual excellent standards. While the service was typically excellent, the food missed its usual elevated standards, and the ambience was somewhat flat, lacking its usual excitement and buzz.
