Food was really slow and took AGES to come out. I think we waited for 30 minutes or something, and it was already getting really late.
But the food was nice. Really loved the Truffle Mac and Cheese, which had a really strong (in a good and not overwhelming way) truffle aroma to it. The Sesame Crusted Tuna was also amazing. The tuna came in generous sizes, were cooked perfectly, and came with a salad with such delicious sauce. It's not a heavy main, thus a great choice if you're looking for something not heavy for dinner.
Smith & Wollensky has opened on John Adam Street, just off The Strand in central London. Having enjoyed their steaks in New York, we were keen to give this new UK branch a try. My birthday was approaching and it just happened to coincide with an promotion: prosecco, tomahawk steak, lobster and sides @ £35.00 per person...
The verdict: Excellent cocktails and steak in a classy, elegant space (the footman on the door is a good indication of the level of style – bordering on stuffy). A whole host of serving staff looked after us during our meal – some better than others, and were quite full on (a continuous stream checking if everything was ok. It still was…). Somewhere to go for a special occasion when you’re after a bit of pomp.
This restaurant was perfect, the staff are excellent the food as expected was great and the atmosphere was good even in these covid secure times. The measures in place were well explained and followed by all. Cant wait to go back in normal times.
