   Menu and food were great, there’s a really solid lunch menu too. Service wasn’t the best, it was incredibly slow, no care was taken when pouring drinks (water all over the table, server didn’t even care or clean it up and it was hard to imagine they didn’t realise) and we had to get up and find someone to get service. Not ideal for a business meal. Otherwise things were good.

   Excellent! Smith’s is the perfect setting. The service was excellent and the food was perfect. We both had fillet steak, which was one of the best I’ve tasted. We shared some sides. The salads were amazing. We went there for the last meal of our London visit and it did not disappoint. Would highly recommend.. Steak is excellent here. Worth a visit

   We went for dinner here. Was really pleased we booked as I don’t think we would have got a table otherwise. The restaurant is fantastic. We were made to feel welcome on arrival. We ordered the fillet steak and baby chicken with two sides. The meal was incredible and the steak was cooked to perfection. Our waitress was really attentive and knowledgeable about the menu and wine and looked after us really well. Would highly recommend.

   Nice food but portions are on the shall side. The meat was good but potatoes & veg in our roasts were bearly warm so disappointing. Service was good other than one main course arriving late compensated by a free drink for our guest while he watched us eat. Possibly return for drinks but unlikely for a meal. Nice atmosphere and quite lively.

   Waiter was kind and very nice. Feedback for service goes to the receptionist ladies who were doing nothing but sending people away…

   Went for some drinks and the £1 oysters deal, the drinks were alright, the oysters ,however, not so much, 2 out of 3 I had were full of shell bits. The waiters also didn’t bring any forks for the oysters as they weren’t prepped, or a spoon for the sauce in a ramekin. Overall disappointing.

   Fab location. Lovely food. Nice service although waiters could do slightly more and easily go up their game a little with rapport with diners instead of congregating and chatting at the bar area Overall very nice. With a little bit more elevation around service could be superb !

    I was kept waiting for ages at the door while the hostess was on the phone. Ordering was ok, but the basket of bread was inedible as it had been heated in a microwave and was like chewing gum. We weren’t charged for it, but we wanted some nice bread! The waiter just said ‘that’s our bread’. We each had a salad: a Chicken Caesar, but the chicken was overcooked; a crab salad that was nearly all baby spinach with perhaps 25 grams of crab; and a Thai salad that had a sweet chilli dressing that was sweet, but little chilli. We won’t be going back.
