Fancy

Hawksmoor Wood Wharf is housed in an eco-friendly floating pavilion in a new riverside neighbourhood in Canary Wharf. Gently rising and falling with the tide, the main restaurant at dock-level is joined by a 120-seat waterside bar. Both include terraces with views across the water (squint your eyes and you might just see the ghosts of great ships laden with mighty lengths of timber that used to swing in and unload there). There's also a private dining room for up to 20 people named after the local legend Queenie Watts, a singer, songwriter, actor and self-confessed bawdy landlady (think Peggy Mitchell meets Joni Mitchell). The menu revolves around the best British produce the country has to offer with grass-fed dry-aged ethically reared beef, sustainable seafood from the South coast and some of the biggest hits from the Hawksmoor New York menu.

Appreciate that prices here are on the higher side but felt was not wonderful value for what we had this time. We've been several times before so know what we are in for but £57 for fillet steak alone without any sides doesn't seem to represent fair value. Scallops were overcooked and a bit dry. Service lacked polish, food handed over other guest when there was plenty of room to place directly on the correct place and 12.5% added service charge didn't match how we were served. Main staff all good let down by amateurish deliverers of food. Could do better and have had much better here before. Underwhelmed this time.

First time for Sunday Roast at Hawksmoor. We switched to the steak on the board option but went full trimmings. Food was excellent, ribeye on point, sides were great...crispy roasties borderline needed another serving. Add that it was a joint birthday bash. The staff added that extra bit of love with our cake and making sure birthday joy sent. All in, fantastic lunch and we'll be back soon!

Food was good, arrived in good time, tasty and decent sized portions. Steak was a little under seasoned and slightly gristly around one edge which was disappointing but still edible and enjoyable.. I ordered buttered greens and was served cabbage…I like cabbage but would have expected two different veg at least not just one, however still nice albeit slightly underseasoned for my liking.

Table for two, Both fillet steaks came very well done, despite being ordered medium and medium rare. We quietly told the waiter, who the replied that it’s the cut off meat and how fillet steaks are served !! At the end of the meal after we left our steaks, the manager came to see us and agreed that they were completely dry and well over cooked. Promised us an email by the end of the night asking us to return for a free steak as an apology. Nothing arrived.

Been many times before, usually a fantastic experience - the staff were friendly as usual and cannot fault the waitress. The food however was not up the usual standard at all, the steak came out burnt, cooked through much more than the medium rare requested. For £96 I would expect the steak to be cooked perfectly, the waitress offered a new steak however we had waited long enough at that point and did not want to wait for another steak to be made. Overall, although this is usually a fantastic restaurant the steak was a complete let down.
