   The waiting staff were very kind & friendly but a little incompetent. We had made a booking but had to wait for a table as clearly they didn’t take it into account & weren’t interested that we had booked ahead of time. We ordered a seafood boil & asked if it was possible to have it without sausage as we are pescatarian. They said yes, but it arrived with meat in it. Not the waiting staff’s fault as they had put a note on the order, so a mistake in the kitchen, but not good. They replaced it graciously. Food is very rich & the seafood was tasteless & clearly frozen not fresh. It was a fun experience for the kids, but it’s a low quality restaurant which is rather overpriced. That being said the SS boil for 2 could feed 4, so if we had two extra people with us it would have been reasonable. Menu looks extensive, but is largely repetitive once you figure it out. Quite a clever concept as it’s easy to think there’s so much exciting food to order, but actually there isn’t. Basically it’s a pimped up fast food joint with a good atmosphere. Would not go back.

   Staff came to the table at least 10+ times to ask if everything was ok with food, just a couple of times would have been fine

   Wanted seating for 10 which when booking online it did not allow. When arrived at restaurant was told I could've called about the table arrangements. Food wise, shrimps were not seasoned separately, but covered in the relevant sauces this made the shrimps tasteless. Food plentiful

   Staff were amazing , waiter was so helpful and courteous. Food was fresh and tasty, garlic and butter sauce, great! The only request I would make is for natural juices on menu. I would definitely recommend a visit and we will be revisiting again in the near future. Please note: Parking between 12-2 permit holders only, parking so hard to find in the area , visit restaurant after 2 if driving.

   Serving on a tray meant that everything on the tray was covered in butter which spilt over from the lobster tails. This ruined the salad and the chip. Moreover, why chunky chips with lobster???? French fries surely. Non alcoholic drinks only available also ruined the atmosphere for me. On the plus side the shrimp and lobster tails were delicious. Shame about everything else

    Point to note for all the restaurant does not serve Alchol!!!!!! You also have to pay your waiter for the food at time of ordering!!!! Had an issue with the Lobster being over cooked in parts raised to the manager and he did nothing just said this is how we cook it. Stay well clear is my recommendation the only plus point we had a fun waiter that kept us entertained. There are better seafood restaurants in London that serve alcohol and now how to cook lobster.
