Beautiful dining room and very attentive staff. Just disappointed with the ‘early’ menu. You would struggle if you don’t like fish. 2 main fish dishes , a vegetarian option that was just veg. Or a steak that had a £10 surcharge. Shame.

We had a great dinner last night at Berners Tavern, but what made the difference was Ionut, he was engaging, fun, and made us feel at home. He would be a reason why we would go again. Food was great, service excellent and good vibes all round 😊

First time we visited here in 2019 the food was amazing - need to take another bite type of food. Finally getting to come back now in 2024, would have to say we were a bit disappointed (moved from #1 on our fav restaurants list to in the 4th—maybe further down slot). Mac n cheese with braised beef is still fantastic but everything else food wise, was just nice (nothing to write home about). Cocktails were really nice—still one of the most solid restaurants on having great tasting cocktails. Server may have been a breakfast server who got put on dinner shift but was not up to the level you’d expect for $$$.

Such a gorgeous room. What has happened to the service? This place used to be top notch. The food is fine. It's all perfectly nice and well presented, but the menu is limited, uninspired, and the dishes aren't standouts. I had the Lobster Mac and Cheese - very little lobster, and the cheese was more liquid/souplike consistency. One guest had the steak frites, the frites were very ordinary. But it was the service that was really poor: slow on everything, not attentive, didn't refill water glasses, couldn't catch a waiter's eye, took 15 minutes to bring a glass of wine. That said, the room is still GORGEOUS if you are looking for a beautiful backdrop.

We had an excellent pre-theatre meal in Berner's Tavern. The food was delicious, served promptly to ensure we made it to our showing on time, and the staff were friendly and attentive. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for an occasion meal, with gorgeous surroundings and excellent food.
