The food is always incredible, the staff were super friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend Flesh and Buns and visit regularly.
Love it here, great for a super tasty lunch, the chicken wings are the best I’ve ever had anywhere!
The food was good, our waitress was excellent and our glass was never empty!
Delicious food and great atmosphere. Exceptional service.
Great food, really enjoyed trying some new options. Buns delicious but would like more than 2 with the meats.
Service was poor though; 1 item we ordered didn't turn up, waiting staff were mixed, some very polite and attentive, others very dismissive, rude and inattentive. Felt like staff really didn't want to be there. Inside it's a bit chaotic but still a decent experience overall.
Value for money is average. Food is tasty but expensive but service was more like a casual fast food spot, not what you expect from a place charging +£20 for mains.
I wouldn't rush back over other great places to eat, but it was good to try.
Great food, pleasant staff and nice atmosphere, quite expensive though.
Tasty food and friendly, efficient service. Would definitely come again.
Went to F@B for lunch which was really tasty! Had Sushimi to start which was fresh and well presented followed by suckling pig Bao buns which were delicious! Recommended
Food never disappoints. Crispy squid was a bit salty but the buns and chicken yakitori is 10/10. Service was great too despite being very busy
I love the food, been going for a few years 😊
Emmy and Josh were awesome. Very attentive, great knowledge of food and beverage and good upselling skills. The food was delicious!
Would 100% return.
Thanks for a great evening.
Felt a bit 'meh' at this venue which was so atmospheric when I came previously 2 years ago.
Lights were too bright, like tesco - it was a bit, chilly.
Service was spot on - best part of the night.
Mains where OK but you need more then two Baos? Seemed a bit tight.
Chicken wings were fantastic and rib sooo succulent.
Hope it was a one off as usually very good indeed.
Nice, bustling chatty ambience, good food, seemed pricey but I am from out of town….
It was okay they stop spatchcock chicken which was a shame
The service was absolutely outstanding. We were made to feel so welcome
I've been to this place many times and it never disappoints. Fantastic food, fantastic ambience and great customer service!
VERY GOOD! Short Rib was incredible! Will be returning! <3
lovely 9 course taster menu, well worth the money.
needed to ask the waiter everything multiple times as the table wasn’t prepared adequately
Food and atmosphere were fabulous. Service was quite slow on the whole (except for Mattia who was great!). Really enjoyed it.
- Amazing, big portions of food
- Good quality Prosecco
- Nice and chilled atmosphere
- Free Wi-Fi
An amazing night with mind-blowing food!
Despite all the glowing reviews, we still weren't ready for how incredibly delicious each course food was, from the Korean wings, to the S'mores for dessert, all an absolute feast for the senses! Stand out dish of the night had to be the lamb shank being so tender and meaty!
Flesh and Buns is honestly my new favourite go to London restaurant!
The Korean chicken wings are outstanding! Like nothing I have tasted before! Be prepared to get messy and enjoy!
A firm favourite is the Corn Tempura! Crunchy bites with a zesty dip! Also tried the crackers and dips which are super tasty, light rice crackers with avocado and a spicy salsa dip.
Bao bun wise I go for the Japanese fried chicken every time! Just so good! (Making many mouth watering thinking about them!) Must remember to order extra buns next time!!
And for dessert you cannot go wrong with sharing a s’mores with a friend/partner! Perfect over the top spectacle to end the perfect meal!
Super nice food as always! Service is excellent. Everyone from reception to floor staff very friendly and helpful.
Great environment, thank you Matteo for looking after us
Our friend was back from living in Barbados fir over a year and loves Flesh & Buns so it was a reunion. It was excellent, the food was as delicious as ever, she loves the Korean chicken and said it was delicious, we all adored the bao buns. We had Salmon, the pork belly and chicken to accompany them. Yum. I had a delicious cocktail, I think green Eden, with vodka and mint. My friends loved the lucky cat cocktail, taste and presentation and said the S’mores were divine. My chocolate fondant was amazing. Thanks for a brilliant night.
Really lovely food and buzzy atmosphere. Tables too close together though which was the only downside.
Amazing service this visit. Waitress friendly, intuitive and informative.
Food amazing, best Korean wings, endame in soy chilli glaze was delicious.
A faultless visit and asahi on draft.
If I could make an improvement.... the paper straws are rubbish and make cocktail consumption a challenge :)
Expensive but good food and great drinks
Great food, great service, couldn't have asked for more. Emmy was a great server and accommodated our dietary requirements calmly and thoroughly, checking everything with the kitchen in detail. Will be back for sure!
We were quite disappointed with the food. The duck steamed buns came with a strange sauce which just did not go with the duck. It should come with hoi sin ideally. The crispy squid wa very plain and was served boiling hot (too hot!). The sauce on the chicken wings was far too overpowering and tangy. I expected a lot better for the price
Amazing food and service! Staff were so knowledgable about the menu and able to give great recommendations. Food was perfectly cooked and presented, recommend getting a selection and sharing. Can’t wait to go back.
Very attentive staff, great atmosphere and the food was incredible. Can't wait to return.
The bottomless brunch was brilliant value for money, and Emmy our hostess was amazing!
Hugely recommended. And the Yuzu Margarita was delicious.
Good food as always and staff are always attentive. Could do with more options on the dessert menu .
Celebrated our engagement - excellent service
Been going to Flesh & Buns over the years and it's one of my favourites. However I was gutted to find out they have stopped doing certain things on the menu (even though it was still written on the menu itself).
The staff member who served us was so hot and cold. Greeted us in such a friendly manner, but when asked to change / amend the order she rolled her eyes at us. Also she was quick to take our plates... As soon as the last piece was lifted the plate was gone!
Tasty food in cool surroundings. Serving staff very friendly and accommodating. Would go back
The food is very nice but it just lacks generosity, with small portions and very high prices. £30 for sashimi is punchy and I expect more.
The buns are all lovely but again, £28 and only 2 steamed buns? Really!!?
I would highly recommended Flesh & Buns, really good food! Good service and good vibes
