Scott's Richmond in Richmond upon Thames

Excellent oysters, crab and lobster! Great service. Very cozy pleasant setting.

Let's not beat about the bush! This is an expensive restaurant! So despite multiple recommendations; the bar had been set very high! But Scott's delivered! And more! The food, the service, the atmosphere and the location were all perfect! I really can't find any fault! It is a fabulous fine dining experience that I can wholeheartedly recommend!

Ill Afterwards. A group of us visited and had a lovely time and left feeling very happy, all in all it was very pleasant until 3 of us became ill later in the day. We are from different households and we hadn't seen each other before visiting Scott's on that day. The 3 of us only had one thing in common which was eating the risotto. We reported the issue to the restaurant who passed it to a 3rd party compnay. They refuse to acknowledge the issue and pointed the finger at us. As i mentioned , one thing in common, the risotto. Very poor response from the restaurant. Won't be going back again and certain won't recommend visiting.

What a wonderful place with an accent of jazz music in the background. My friends and I had a great evening!

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Scott’s Richmond, and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The meal was nothing short of outstanding, with a selection of fresh, high-quality seafood that left a lasting impression. We began with oysters, which were perfectly chilled and full of flavor—an ideal start to the meal. For the main course, I had the lobster, scallops, king prawns, and spicy crab, all of which were cooked to perfection. Each dish was wonderfully prepared, with the seafood beautifully complemented by rich flavors and textures. The service was impeccable, with attentive staff making sure every need was met without being intrusive. To accompany the meal, I enjoyed a crisp house white wine, which paired wonderfully with the seafood, followed by an Aperol Spritz to finish off the meal on a refreshing note. All in all, it was an unforgettable dining experience—delicious food, excellent service, and a perfect ambiance. Highly recommended!

We were ready to leave. We booked our visit a few weeks in prior as we wanted to spend family New Year’s Eve there. Upon arrival we were sent to the top floor being said your table is being prepared for you. 30 minutes of waiting until we were offered the table on the top floor, which was already empty when we arrived. When my partner insisted on getting the table in the main room we have been told that it’s overbooked and they don’t have available tables. Anyway, after couple of minutes we got the table in the main dining room , where we ate delicious meals. And yet I will think twice going back there again.

While this restaurant is in a beautiful location and nicely appointed, the food leaves much to be desired. Not very tasty and bland. For such an expensive place trying to be exclusive, I had expected much more! The staff were friendly but too busy to be attentive.

Went to Scott’s with a friend of mine in Richmond before she left for LA, and I’m very disappointed by the food considering it was on the higher end of pricing. We ended up getting half a lobster, scallops, monkfish i believe, and I ended up getting the masala after still being hungry. The lobster had no flavour which was disappointing. The masala was quite sweet, which was odd, and my friend’s fish dish had an odd indescribable flavour. The scallops were good though. Overall, I’m very disappointed by the food at Scott’s, however, the service and the interiors of the restaurant was amazing.

As good as Mayfair Scott's, if not better. Had an amazing lunch with family, enjoying excellent service, a wonderful atmosphere, and of course, delicious food. One thing I particularly enjoyed about Richmond over Mayfair was the lovely river views. Planning to visit again at Easter.

Went to Scott’s for a the Sunday roast, it was very busy due to it being the Sunday before Christmas, I found the carrots and cabbage were hard and had a very fatty cut of meat, the prawn tempura had a very airy light batter. It was very underwhelming for the price (I’ve had better roasts in chain pubs) Although the decor and atmosphere was very grand and food service was quick,I would personally rather go here for the drinks and jazz evening.

Bread is amazing Service is amazing Gold chainler I would recommend this review to a friend

Both the original Scott’s in Mayfair and the newer one in Richmond are great places for special moments.

Scotts is always super good, however this time I asked to takeaway some of the food I couldn’t finish and they packed it the way the bag and just collapsed 1 minute after we went out of the restaurant. Very frustrating as I lost half of my dish and the side:(

Loved the food, the very attentive staff and the beautiful location. Definitely recommended.

Atmosphere a tad stiff sevice was good .although I never did get my beer i ask twice for at the end of our meal.i ordered a steak for my main but it was very disappointing very chewy and not seasoned i have .had much better for a lot less. i was on the other hand able to take the steak home and feed the dog so all not wasted .we were a table of 10+so I didn't complain at the time as I was having a fun evening .The restaurant however is nicely laid out and is in a great location in Richmond

Just arrived for Christmas eve lunch. Relegated to a very understated room upstairs. Be warned that if you want the full Scotts dining experience you need to request the room downstairs. Not at all impressed, especially considering the amount of money we are about to spend for what should have been a special lunch. Could be in any restaurant right now...

Rude staff, tense and unfriendly. Artificial attitude to guests and to each other. They need special training to work with people and colleagues. Training how to be human,but unfortunately this is not taught.

Very mediocre. Food is average. The service is, to put it mildly, bad. They forgot to bring water, they brought it, but the wrong one. Then again the wrong one. They don't fit at all. Dirty dishes are not removed, empty bottles are not removed. At the same time they are quite cute. But there is no basic service.

Extremely racist behaviour from the staff - we wanted to have a quick drink at the bar which was completely empty and we were not allowed. Generally staff not willing/welcoming very disappointed

One of my favourite restaurants in London. Fantastic new addition to Richmond and looking forward to planning my next visit :-)

I am disappointed with my recent experience with your customer service. When I called to cancel my reservation that we have moved, the second I tried to move the customer service really rude at the phone call and told cancellations within 24 hours would be free of charge. However, despite notifying your team over 24 hours in advance, I am now being told I will be charged. This has been frustrating and unclear. I kindly request clarification on your cancellation policy and hope this matter can be resolved fairly we should not get charged on this when the service is not valuable and unacceptable for being rude to us!

Feeling very festive with the glamorous christmas decorations, fabulous food and very attentive staff. Great night out.

We went here on November 19th for lunch to celebrate our Silver Wedding Anniversary. The service was excellent, and we were made to feel welcome, and were attended to perfectly. The food was divine. The Oysters were superb as was the champagne to accompany. At that point we joked with our waiter that we could sit there all afternoon just eating Oysters and having more champagne. However, we moved on, of course. A cocktail each took us onto our starters of Devilled Crab and scallops, again superb. Mains was a perfectly filleted Dover Sole for my wife and grilled cod for myself, with sides of potato and spinach. A bottle of Bolney Estate Pinot Gris was a great accompaniment. Desserts of Brownies with ice Cream and Paris Best with Pistachio Ice cream and a tawny port to finish made for a most enjoyable afternoon.

Excellent all around 👏 Can't fault it

Great Food Very Delicious and Beautifully Presented and Staff was excellent, very attentive , polite and very professional. Looking forward to my next visit .

It’s good, but they forgot my bread.

Lovely customer service from Ukrainian guys 👏🏻🔥 food was fabulous ❤️ Perfect dessert Paris Brest

Held our intimate wedding reception dinner for 12 here in October and everything was seamless. The set menu was fantastic and more food than I could finish! Wonderful wine selection and our server was charming and accomodating. Thank you for creating such a special memory for me.

From Fatima at reception to the team at both the upstairs and ground floor sections the service is on par with London Michelin starred locations. Wine list is well balanced and love the carafe options. Food, especially the prawns, Lobster and Cinnamons doughnuts is exquisite Grazie Mille 🙏🏻

Very impressive ambience and the fish is also good. At par with their original restaurant in Mayfair.

Some of the best service I’ve had in London. Pierre is a class apart. Excellent food without even a hint of mediocrity. Beautiful venue.

Excellent fish and chip shop, lots of variety, excellent atmosphere, excellent food. We paid £273 for lobster plus . Nice walk by the Thames afterwards. Parking around the corner in Friars Place for a tenner...if you can get in it. Richmond is a lovely place, with a wide variety of historic and modern architecture, and if you have had too much of the gorgeous food, there are plenty of hungry bird and fish who will appreciate the expensive scraps. Being on the pension fine dining is not something I would do too often.

Unfortunately like many- husband has come down with Food poisoning 24 hours after having the "freshest" oysters (Loch Ryan) - absolutely miserable experience and seems to be a trend now that I am reading through comments- particularly with the oysters! Super disappointing experience from a place I would have only expected the highest and freshest quality.

What a wonderful way to spend the afternoon. The decor is fabulous and the calm atmosphere makes for a delightful experience. From the moment we sat down the staff were polite and attentive (especially Chelsea) clearly caring about their establishment. The food was a joy with great care taken over the presentation and flavours. Thank you to all.

Very nice restaurant , tasty food, very nice service . Everything at the highest standard

Beautiful restaurant, friendly staff and good service but the food was very average. Miso salmon was over cooked, endive salad weirdly came with sugary walnuts and the cod was also mediocre. Wanted it to be so much better.

Great food, superb service, and beautiful decor. Specially recommend the Live Jazz on Wednesdays.

Magda, our server she was amazing, first time there and she provide an an amazing experience.

Although the food was lovely, I can only describe the place as unnecessary over priced and have never been anywhere with such a mark up. The service and staff were good but £369 for 3 courses plus a bottle of cheap red wine and 4 glasses of champagne is extortionate. We enjoyed our experience but at that price I would expect the food and dining experience to be outstanding and it was mediocre at best. We would never consider going back as it was far too expensive and not worth the price. As an example; a bottle of Nytimber was £108 (+13.5% service charge, making it approximately £122) which is usually anywhere between £40-£75 per bottle anywhere else. Don’t waste your money, it’s nothing special.

A great dining experience. Really enjoyed the bread and butter. Broccoli was fantastically moreish. Chips were crispy. Beetroot salad starter was good, Moreso the grilled mackerel. Mains of Pollock was good but a smaller portion, the trout was good. The custard dessert was a little lacklustre. Service was good. The interiors are very plush and luxurious. The views of the Thames are sensational. Pricey but worth it. They have private dining and a magical bar upstairs.

A classy british authentic restaurant that you are sure to fall in love with.. lower prices than the one in central with a better vibe. Terrace is best seat in the house with a view of the river

Bridge and Tunnel, redefined. Scott's Richmond is, we're told, an off-shoot of the original (estimable) Scott's in Mayfair. Except it isn't really, although it technically has the same owner, the flamboyant "restauranter" Richard Caring. It's a theme park Scott's for the 'burbs, the bridge and tunnel brigade and it flaunts it - a dumbed down version, no sense of occasion. Soulless doesn't begin to describe it. The decor is so garish (cf. Mayfair) it makes its' owner look positively under-stated (quite the achievement ). Service is, varyingly, absent, supercilious and too "matey" (another achievement) treating the punters ( and you are very much a "punter") with disdain, as if the staff can't quite believe anyone would actually spend money here. The food? Don't go there. Tasteless crab and skate reminiscent of a Findus boil-in-the-bag job from the 1970s ( yet another achievement). Eat before you go and stick to the drinks, you'll need one.

Fabulous location with a great atmosphere right on the river and only a short walk from the Richmond train station. Sergii gave an amazing tour of all things tequila and mezcal! Mark made a brilliant old fashioned cocktail with a mezcal twist. Definitely will return and hopefully on a jazz night which sounds like a lot of fun...

Love the view! Such an amazing place for any occasion! I come here regularly as nothing else is comparable to the atmosphere here.

Our favourite local date night spot in Richmond. The tempura prawns, seafood platter and any fish are worth trying. Always excellent service, warm friendly staff and most importantly chilled champagne! Thank you Pierre and staff.

Every part of the venue from the moment you walk in to the dining hall is stunning. The food was lovely particularly the platter and cheesecake dessert. The only downside was service which is really poor considering the high service charge. Save for the manager (who served more tables than the rest of the staff combined) the staff were really inattentive and it was an effort trying to get their attention. This was despite it being a quiet Thursday afternoon with very few tables.

The outdoor terrace of this fish restaurant on the Thames is an under-regarded delight, as is the food. The spinach we had one sunny lunchtime still had grit in it, but Nuno, a superb maitre'd, ensured we were not charged for the item. In my view, as a practised bon viveur, this branch of Scott's is superior to the Mayfair original. mw

Immaculate service in a gorgeous environment. Despite booking a large group, the service was personal and on point. Food was incredible. Faultless.

What an absolutely amazing evening it was, from the moment we arrived until the time we departed! The warm welcome set the tone for a truly memorable experience. We were fortunate to be seated in a stunning area on the terrace, where the ambiance was simply enchanting. The culinary offerings were nothing short of sublime, each dish a delightful masterpiece that tantalized our taste buds. The staff were exceptionally attentive, ensuring that every need was met with a smile. A special shout-out goes to Alex, who not only took great care of us but also brought a vibrant personality that added to the overall enjoyment of the evening. It was a night to remember, filled with exquisite food, wonderful company, and impeccable service!

Excellent birthday meal experience！ I changed my mind about British food, it's really delicious, I recommend the octopus and lobster🦞

4.5 My mother-in-law was visiting with her sister so we wanted somewhere special for lunch. Scott’s certainly fits the bill as it’s a beautiful room with wonderful views over the river. The service was excellent, efficient and friendly. Overall the food was pretty good, spiced baked crab and spiced salmon tartare were both well seasoned with a good balance of flavours. The prawns for the cocktail were good quality but as they come straight off the ice they are very cold and so are a bit lacking in flavour. The beurre noisette on the Dover sole was disappointing as it had not been cooked to the nutty stage and was therefore just a butter sauce, the sauce on the skate special was also a bit bland. Deserts went down well with the Paris-Brest and the honeycomb ice-cream being particular highlights. Yes it’s expensive but our visitors loved it and so it was money well spent and brightened a very wet day.

Fantastic dishes, friendly staff, and a cozy environment. Everything was served quickly, and the flavors were amazing. Definitely a place worth visiting again.

Beautiful restaurant that came highly recommended. Agree with the beauty of the place, but was sadly disappointed with the rest. It literally took us (a table of 3) one hour and twenty minutes to receive our food. Our server was the only one professional enough to apologize for the delay. Not one of the three “managers” we saw in the dining room addressed us nor did they offer us anything for our inconvenience. The two stars I’ve rated this restaurant is generous, and save for the server, a one star would be awarded.

During my recent dining experience, I must commend the exceptional professionalism, friendliness, politeness, and support exhibited by the staff. The overall atmosphere, which was influenced by the staff, music, and delectable food, truly contributed to a memorable dining experience.

Fantastic! On entry we were greeted warmly by 2 reception members. I would like to specifically mention Harry who maintained professionalism balanced with fantastic humour. He made myself and my partner feel very at ease. The native oysters were amazing and the octopus robata was delicious. We were really impressed with the rapid service from the waiters and we will definitely be coming back.

Fabulous fish restaurant. Expensive but worth it.

The minute the door is opened to welcome you, you will not be disappointed. I have been time and time seated in the terrace with the view of the river. Seated at the delighted tables on the ground floor dining with exquisite views of the Murano chandeliers and artworks to sitting at the bar admiring the handling of the seafood platters. Every seating experience had its charm. The staff are impeccably dressed and mannered with A star service and attentiveness. The food is easy to navigate with specialities in seafood. A lovely way to embrace the past dining and be swept away from the cities bustle.

We went there to celebrate a special occasion - sadly they were very dull about it which sadly flattened the experience. The food was ok - but I didn’t appreciate the stale bread - neither the first basket not the second!! The whole evening felt perfunctory not special and certainly not worth £200!!! I cannot recommend it at all.

Scott’s in Mayfair is one of my favourite restaurants in London, so when this location opened I’ve been meaning to visit for some time. My boyfriend and I came on a Monday as a celebration and were very much looking forward to the event, however our experience was lacking and very different to what we expect from the original location at Mayfair. The biggest disappointment came from the food - despite the restaurant only having an occupancy of no more than 25%, the dishes took a long time to arrive - the starter after 45 minutes - and when it, the dishes were dry and tasteless. My boyfriend had the crab which had minimal flavour and I had the scallops, which clearly had been sitting under lights for some time as they were extremely dry. I would also say the same for my fish main - you can see from my pictures that both dishes were dry from sitting out for too long. A really disappointing experience; maybe it was just a bad day? The only other comment I will add is that generally my boyfriend and I enjoy sitting at the bar. The staff in the Mayfair restaurant who serve behind the counter are generally efficient yet discreet and warm however the server behind the counter that day looked like she only cared about cleaning the dishes. No interest in the customers and pretty unfriendly. This review may sound a bit harsh but I saw one other table complaining about their food and the time it took to arrive so I don’t think we were the only ones experiencing a subpar seating. Sorry, Scott’s Richmond - you aren’t a patch on the original in MayfairZ

My favourite place in Richmond. Service was excellent. Had a great table on the upstairs terrace and the sun was shining. Lunch was great as ever.

Elegant rooms in a prime spot by the Richmond bridge with an atmosphere of friendly formality. We were new to the place as was our waiter, Alex (day 4) whose attentiveness and humour added to our enjoyment of the meal. We went with the set menu, their "pre-show" option though, as Alex assured us, "the show's right here". Prompt, professional service and well-prepared food throughout. Highlights include the chargrilled broccoli, the Mirabelle custard tart..... and Alex.

Absolutely fantastic! What a glorious setting! Terrific service by our lovely waiter Alex, who walked us through the menu and the upstairs terrace/balcony as well! The food is simply divine and I strongly recommend the set menu for great value for money. All in all, an amazing experience - thank you!

Became severely ill after having the oysters here. Have seen I am not the first either. The table was not ready and the service was rude (ruined a friends birthday surprise). Terrible experience from start to finish.

As you’d expect, the food is absolute quality. The location, atmosphere, decor are all brilliant. I only wish the portion sizes were a little bigger, you don’t want to be eyeing up McDonald’s on the walk home having spent good whack at Scotts!

My first impression, unfortunately, was the ladies toilets which made me feel I was standing in a late night bar after a long night.. not great. In their defence, I reported it to reception and upon returning an hour later, everything was clean. It is a very grand room with views of the river. I can't fault the service, the wine gets kept away from your table but they do top you up regularly. I had the miso blackened salmon and my friend the langoustine linguine both of which were decent. I tried one of their special gin cocktails called The bees knees served in a pretty little glass . We enjoyed a bottle of chablis and refrained from dessert. If you are looking for a classy seafood restaurant this would impress your friends!

Probably the best fish I have ever eaten so far! We ordered roasted fillet of cod and it was 11/10. Seared sea bass was also perfect. For the side orders we ordered chargrilled broccoli. It was tasty but I would try a different side. Octupus was quite good. For the starters we ordered tomato salad and it was 5/10. The tomatos were so big and the portion was very small. For the dessert, I would highly recommend Pavlova. It is creamy inside. Paris Brest was okay but Pavlova is better if you like fruity tastes. The view was amazing and romantic. They made a nice gesture and bring a plate for our anniversary. Really liked this place :)

Politely asked if my 85 year-old mother could use their restroom and was refused. Don't spend your money in a restaurant where their front of house has no compassion.

Incredible meal - such a treat!

Excellent food, a beautiful room, and a good menu. The restaurant looks and feels expensive. It is

If you love your seafood undoubtedly you have heard of Scott's. Despite being in Richmond, one feels the grandeur of the place and one could be mistaken for not being in Knightsbridge or Mayfair. The bar upstairs is excellent and the bar tender not only gave great recommendations but had a wonderful manner. Now the food; I have to put a caveat that I'm not a fan of fish, but my wife is. Nonetheless, the baked spiced crab was smooth, morish and divine, whilst the sautéed cod cheeks and snails were rich with great depth in flavour. Now to the mains. The fish and chips is a very large portion, but was too salty and the batter to overpowering for me. However, the crushed peas were buttery and glorious. Sadly the battered cod I at from my local fish and chips shop the night before was substantially more enjoyable to eat. My wife went for the Dover sole served on the bone. Though we'll cooked she felt that it had been frozen rather than was fresh. So wonderful venue, fabulous service but the food is good not great.

outstanding service and incredible food!

First time at Scotts in Richmond. Wednesday evening is live jazz. Food is excellent. Will be there again.

My partner and I went for lunch at Scott’s in Richmond on Sunday, for the first time, and I must say it was the finest dining experience we’ve had in a long time! The food, ambience, and service was outstanding! Thanks to the chef, waiting staff and the manager, who all kindly looked after us! We’ll be back!

Disappointed, table on the top floor balcony supposedly with a river view but view of river obscured. Rushed service although restaurant far from full. Food ok but for AU$350 expected far better. Not happy about this thing here with a 13.5% service charge eg a mandated tip which you have to pay even if not satisfied

Fantastic quality & 10/10 service - great place to entertain and enjoy Richmond living

Fab afternoon lunch with the family, made even better by the quality of the food and service

We walked in around 6:30pm and asked for a table for 3 & a child. The 2 ladies at the entrance apologized as they have no availability.. we asked if we could register and wait even for an hour, the ladies replied that they are fully booked and offered us seat at the bar (!!). We left to check other nearby spot but my daughter decided to check their website and she was surprised to find few slots within the next 60min so she booked a 7:15pm table.. we spent the next 15min before our appointment enjoying the river side. We showed up on time and we said we have a booking at 7:15..the ladies were firm that they have no available table and tried to blame it on OpenTable although before confirming our booking on OT, it was on their own website! We insisted as we will not pay the no show charges. All of sudden, our table was available! If it wasn’t for my daughter who got reco to try them out; I’d have never dined there after such rude responses by the front door ladies. Now the food was actually great and our waiter was even greater.. yet, the front door experience left an awfully bad taste in our mouths. Personally, I’ll never eat at Scott’s again.

We came here for my dad's birthday meal. All the food was delicious: we had the gazpacho, monk fish cheeks, fish & chips, lobster & chips, berries & cream, cinnamon doughnuts and paris brest. I'd highly recommend the monk fish cheeks. The service was brilliant. The staff were really friendly and professional. They also picked up on the fact that it was my dad's birthday, without being told, and gave him an extra treat. Overall, I was really impressed and we'll be back again.

A few of us had dinner here and my wife’s John Dory gave her food poisoning. Its been 3 days and she is still suffering. I would avoid the John Dory at Scotts Richmond

Beautiful experience, location is amazing and food even better, service was great! Can’t wait to be back!

Beautiful spot with a lavish interior and a lovely outdoor terrace overlooking the river. The food was good, as was the service and each plate was beautifully presented. The food is expensive for what it is but it is worth going there for a special occasion.

Scott’s offer the best dining experience in Richmond. Their knowledgeable and friendly service makes them stand out.

Had a lovely family meal at Scott’s. Great ambiance and service and food was delicious.

Over priced for what it is. Massive wine selection but just too pricy for what it is. Portion size was measly, getting told off for pouring your own water was ridiculous too. Won’t be returning and will not be recommending.

Absolutely beautiful restaurant, lovely staff. Menu didn't quite live up to my expectations but definitely would return for a special occasion.

Great location. Right by the river. Request for a table on the terrace when u make that reservation. Friendly staff. Lovely dining room. Posh decor. I had the fish masala curry for lunch. It was ok. Not the greatest of curry but it’s not bad either. We had wonderful dessert tho n starter. Will go back to try other food on the menu.

We went for Sunday dinner, hoping for a great experience considering it's location and being well know for its fish dishes! We were taken to our seat offered water, which was nice but then had to wait 20mins for our drink order to be taken! Please be aware we declined the water so service standard should have been to take our drinks order pretty quick. I was told that the Sancerre only came in a 125ml glass, I had to open up the wine menu to show otherwise. Throughout our time there we had to catch the eye of a waiter to get refreshments. Having said that the restaurant manager was a delight and very professional. I would generally not bother putting in a review however my daughter and I have suffered terribly with food poisoning since then and still trying to recover. Unfortunately Scott's is not recommended, service standard was sub par and the only memory now is the agony of food poisoning! DONT HAVE ANY FISH DISH HERE!

Food was great views were amazing but went very late afternoon and ordered Sunday lunch and beef I was told only comes one way medium rare no problem with that but it was more than that and the roast potatoes had definitely been hanging around a bit tough but the flavour was good would still happily go back but should have mentioned at the time for kitchen to know. My vegan friend was happy with his wishes as well

Always have an amazing meal at Scott’s in Richmond - from the downstairs, upstairs to the terrace in the summer. Cannot fault the food, decor is stunning & service is the best you’ll find in London. I recommend all seafood dishes and believe it or not the steak is one of the best you’ll ever get if you have a non fish eater amongst you.

Excellent food and great service.

This is my 4th visit to Scott’s in Richmond. Was there today for a casual business lunch. The staff are always terrific, welcoming, very friendly and provide outstanding personal attention. I had the tuna tartar with avacado very fresh and tasty and a nice portion. I then had the special - fish pie one of my favorite dishes. This one was particularly nice, a hint of a smoky flavour, plump prawns a hearty serving. My colleague has 6 fresh oysters and a 1/2 grilled lobster which he was very happy with. Nice lunch today would recommend

Opulent interior. Buzzy atmosphere. Felt special. Good service. Food overpriced. Steak grisly. My fault for ordering steak in a seafood restaurant? Perhaps, but I’ve had much nicer steaks for half the price. Smoked salmon (I know, I’m such a cliche) nice, but literally just some salmon on a plate with scant accompaniments. Felt a bit measly. My wife did that thing of ordering half a lobster then realising there isn’t a lot of meat. Her Paris breast desert was really nice. My chocolate truffles were chocolate filled with a kind of jelly, so not really truffles. Drinks expensive. £15 for a small glass of low to average cab sav. Cocktails and shorts with mixer same price, though nicely done. Overall, £280 for a meal for two felt like we paid for the fit out, the location and the experience (nice live jazz) more than the food and drink itself. I liked it, just wish the food had been a bit nicer to better justify the expense.

Another long, lovely lunch with friends at Scott’s. Great oysters, starters and some main courses, as the ‘special of the day’ the fish pie , was not very special, rather bland.. The wine selection was good,,, desserts were good as well. Service was very good as well with a great atmosphere .

I always receive fantastic service from all the team members at this restaurant, from the reservation team who take my booking to the waitstaff and the managers. The waitstaff are always helpful in suggesting the most appropriate wine for the occasion, instead of trying to upsell the most expensive option. The food is consistently great, and I highly recommend the atmosphere and venue for any occasion. I want to give a special thanks to Gianmaria, who provided superb service when I visited with my mother and some family friends for a special occasion.

Delicious from start to finish. By the end of our lunch we could start over again!

Although they were not busy as we went on Thursday lunch the service was poor and very slow. Even had to request a wine menu .

A little drink on the riverside

Very nice and excelent experience

New menu is absolutely terrible. It will killed that nice place.
