The River Restaurant by Gordon Ramsay - (Near Westminster, london)

2 /5 Martin Green: To say the food was extremely disappointing would really be an understatement when one considers the price. We had eaten at the River Restaurant two years ago, and were blown away with the food quality, we expected to have the same great culinary experience, but sadly, it wasnt to be. It seemed as if we came to a completely different restaurant. Nearly every dish we ordered, the sea food was not fresh; in fact two of us had to send dishes back because of that. I had the fish and chips and the fish was very watery and batter so hard, as to be almost in penetrable. For 29.50 it was a complete let down. I’m wondering if Gordon Ramsey had eaten here himself in the last two years, if so, I can’t imagine him allowing this terrible quality of food to be served. Our server though was amazing. I felt bad as she was even embarrassed when she saw the dishes we sent back. The place itself is beautiful and atmosphere charming, but those factors alone cant make up for the bad quality food. Needless to say we came away with bad tastes in our mouths, in more ways than one!

5 /5 Astro: Excellent pre theatre lunch on Thursday with my 9 year old. Warm welcome from all staff. Barman offered options on flavours to my son and the drinks were spot on. Food was an another level, great quality great flavours and perfect portion sizes. Excellent service. Very good memories made and we will visit again. Thanks to all involved for your hospitality. We’ve seen Paddington will be at the Savoy theatre soon so I’m sure another visit with family to the amazing River Restaurant before or after.

5 /5 Sarah H: This was my first experience at a Gordon Ramsay restaurant. The surroundings was very opulent as it is in The Savoy Hotel which is a world famous establishment. The staff were very attentive and friendly and professional. We went there for dinner on a Friday but it was not busy at all so it made the experience quite pleasant. The food was delicious and very well seasoned. I especially enjoyed the langoustine bisque which was rich, creamy and smelled and tasted wonderful. Everyone enjoyed their meal and had a good experience. It would be a great place to come for a special occasion.

5 /5 John: Great food, a little pricey but the quality of the all the ingredients is very high. Service was excellent and very friendly. Quite but intimate setting. Great location on the savoy, and seating is very comfortable. Good for family or to bring a date. Beef wellington is great, but overall was a little disappointing.

3 /5 Predrag P: High expectations from a Gordon Ramsay restaurant, but reality fell short. + Elegant setting, polite staff, fresh oysters, Beef Wellington full of flavor. - Ambience feels outdated, Devilled Crab & Crumpets were bland, Cornish New Potatoes and green salad arrived practically raw and poorly prepared. Overall: below average experience, not living up to the Gordon Ramsay name.
