    Service and location were good as our stay was near the W Hotel. However upon arrival we were advised that pizza was no longer available along with monk fish on the menu. That seems strange as most of the menu items were a range of pizzas. That basically left just 1-2 items from the main menu which was disappointing on our final night.

    Went here for breakfast. Good menu, service was great and the food was tasty with good portion sizes. So much so we've booked for tomorrow's breakfast before we leave the city.

    We loved the experience of watching the world walk by as we dined on a tasty pasta ragu. Duan was so engaging as well. A fun, absolutely casual but memorable experience

    Outstanding service, great food and ambiance + dog-friendly! Staff was so very welcoming and wonderful. The pizzas were fresh and tasty. Interior design looks fresh, modern and cosy. We're definitely coming back!

    Booked as a last minute meal pre-Theatre when there were few options available. So glad we did. Fabulous space, wonderful food, very reasonably priced and friendly and passionate staff. Will definitely be back and would highly recommend!

    Our overall experience was good at Society Bar & Kitchen. The gentleman who greeted my friend and I when we stepped in was very knowledgeable and made us feel welcome. However, our waiter himself was not interested in going over the menu with us and was more interested in the other French-speaking tables who were present in his section. Overall I would recommend this restaurant in spite of this!
