    View: Given the marketing and location, the view is underwhelming. The proximity to Battersea Power Station means you don’t get to fully enjoy it, and beyond that, the view primarily overlooks train tracks, which detracts from the experience. Food: Overall, the food was disappointing. The octopus salad lacked the expected texture and flavor of octopus. The Arroz Marisco resembled a soup more than a risotto, and there was no mention of coriander in the dish, which could be an issue for those with preferences or allergies. Additionally, the Madeira sauce was unexpectedly alcoholic, which was not indicated on the menu. Service: Service left much to be desired. The starters were served cold, and the wine arrived only after the starters were already on the table. To make matters worse, there was a 20-minute gap between ordering desserts and their arrival. No one inquired about our experience until after the bill was served, which felt too late to address the issues.
