The Garden Bistro Bar - (Near Westminster, london)

Genevieve Segall The soufflé and snail bolognaise were incredible. Rotisserie chicken was delicious. Perfectly balanced dishes that we enjoyed in a relaxed atmosphere. Slight issue with one of the courses and they dealt with it diligently and courteously so felt very taken care off. It’s lovely and so are the staff. Can’t recommend enough. It’s an experience worth having.

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.

Jacy Garland Highly recommended! We had the most incredible night at House of Louie. We started in the Japanese restaurant on the lower floor, then moved upstairs to the French restaurant, and finished in the Alligator Lounge… and ended up staying all night. The food in both restaurants was outstanding, and the cocktails were some of the best we’ve had in London — beautifully made and dangerously easy to keep ordering. Every space has its own amazing ambience that flows perfectly together, so the whole evening feels like an experience rather than just dinner. The live music was simply beautiful , a pianist sang and played creating at atmosphere like no other. Very unique and special. Such a special place. Can’t wait to come back!

Christopher Villegas If you enjoy eclectic, odd, unconventional places in London, this checks all the boxes. Starting from the street, you can already tell this place is going to be special. When you open the door, your first reaction should be WOW! It reminds me of being on stage and backstage all at once. If there is room in one of the box seat tables, ask for them as you get a fantastic vantage point of the entire restaurant. The food is delicious and does follow the Mediterranean inspired menu. Some of the items are large enough to enjoy on their own without having to do the preset course. The bathrooms have explicit and sexual visuals so if you’re bringing kids, be ready to do some explaining. There are usually live performances daily and typically in the evening hours. Plan accordingly. They also cater to large parties so depending on time/date, they might be completely booked. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful when it came to ordering items off the drink and food menu. There is a tribute area to Richard, who seemed to be the spirit of the restaurant. If you have some time, be sure to look at the tribute area near the entrance.

Peter Vandermolen Amazing and friendly service by all members of staff. The dishes are works of art with many layers of flavor and presented beautifully. The restaurant does not have many covers to serve and perhaps that is reflected in the pricing. Frog is - relatively- expensive for a 1 Michelin star restaurant where you can easily splash £300 for the menu and drinks. Is it worth it? That’s up to you. Is it a wonderful tasty experience: sure it is!

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!
