The Garden Bistro Bar - (Near Westminster, South East)

Eletta Mamma mia! Da Mario made me feel like I’d stepped straight into Italy. The staff and cooks are authentically Italian, and their warmth and charm set the tone for a meal that was pure magic. The lasagna was layered bliss. The chicken; cutlet style, crisp and tender, was comfort incarnate. The arrabbiata had a creamy but fiery kiss, and the espresso? Bold, velvety, and soul-awakening. Each dish was a food orgasm in its own right. Even the bathroom cleanliness was next level; every detail cared for with pride. Friendly, passionate, and deliciously divine, Da Mario didn’t just feed me; it transported me. I’ll be dreaming of it for days. Complimenti a tutti!

Paul Koch WOW! I didn’t even check my “usual” Trip Advisor or Google reviews…just picked a place near Covent Garden. The oysters the crab cake starter were phenomenal. They have an excellent wine list. I tried the local sparkling wine from Kent. AND Dami the manager was just awesome. He really helped with the wine pairing and Daniel gave us the great suggestions for our food!

Shine Had very good pre-theatre menu here last night. Very reasonable and although limited choice of starter, main and dessert they were all excellent - salmon starter, minute steak and cheesecake. It is and impressive high ceiling.dining room inside an hotel. Our waiter was great as well.

Lydia Edwards A gorgeous, friendly, and welcoming restaurant where we enjoyed sitting in the window, watching the world go by. The food was absolutely delicious and well presented, and the staff were exceptionally warm, making it the perfect place to celebrate a special occasion.

Karolina Sokolowska I chose this place to celebrate my husband’s birthday, and from our very first interaction with customer service to the end of the evening, it was an amazing experience. What truly stood out was the exceptional service. We ordered a variety of dishes, and while the main course (the pork chops) was fairly average, everything else was absolutely delicious. I was pleasantly surprised, as I didn’t expect this place to offer such high-quality food. The drinks menu was diverse and unique, with plenty of options to choose from, including wines and other beverages. The live music was another highlight of the night—it really enhanced the atmosphere and made the evening even more enjoyable. Overall, we had a fantastic time, and I would highly recommend this place to anyone who enjoys live music and great food. The photos online truly don’t do it justice.

Sarah H As a lover of seafood, J Sheekey did not disappoint with the quality of food and service. The interior was classy and classic with a variety of celebrity portraits adorning the walls. The food was delicious and filling, with my favourite being the massala and pilaf rice, which had a very creamy texture. Our server Chris gave exceptional service and was very attentive and professional. There was a lot of choice on the menu, hence, I would love to return to try other dishes.
