Tom Simmons

Second time here. Excellent food and very friendly staff. It can get pricey, though, so we stuck to the set menu for early/late diners. A very pleasant oasis just yards from the hectic riverside venues.

We enjoyed a tasty dinner at Tom Simmons before going to the Bridge Theatre. Our companions were vegetarian and they were pleased with their pasta dishes. I had the mushroom soup followed by the pork belly--very good. The service was excellent as always.

Outstanding vslue for the set menu with choices, four I think, for each course with exceptional cooking and lovely presentation,. Rather more expensive from the a la carte, but almost certainly justifiable.

Food was delicious
The cod loin was excellent
Chips are sublime

Absolutely stonking meal for my other half’s birthday. We went when it was Half Term so it was a little quieter for a lunchtime. The staff were just the right level of excellent service and friendliness. The food was some of the best I’ve had in London and anywhere else. The sourdough and ‘Marmite’ butter was heavenly. We can highly recommend the beef and chicken both were so packed full of flavour. Desserts were delicious and the fudge and homemade truffles were some of the best I have ever tasted! This place is a must!! Book now.

I enjoy the family feeling of this place - the staff behave as if every meal and every person matters to them and they are proud of their restaurant. The food was completely delicious and very well presented especially the Lamb shepherds pie and the monk fish. The wine list is limited but what we had was also very good.
Have already recommended this restaurant to friends and will be going again.

Fantastic food and atmosphere in a great location near tower Bridge. Staff warm and welcoming.

This is very, very good cooking. We started with a trio of oysters - raw with lemon and olive oil, warm with a ponzu dressing and tempura. One of the best dishes I've eaten recently, the flavour of the oysters was enhanced not diminished by the dressings. Chicken was a very nicely cooked piece of breast with an intense celeriac puree, but the star was the chargrilled hispi cabbage. Staff were universally delightful. The dining room isn't the most atmospheric in London, but that's a minor quibble. Overall, a thoroughly enjoyable evening. Oh, and nice touch - we went on Valentine's, and instead of the predictable red rose, we had two daffodils on the table. Pretty much sums up Tom Simmons - classic with some lovely touches, and a chef who stays very true to his Welsh heritage.

As good as ever!

I took my fiancé for his birthday, he had to send his starter back because it was cold. Generally I just felt it was really over priced for the service and quality of experience.

Quality of food, location and price merits white table cloth, otherwise very good.

We had a fantastic evening at this amazing restaurant. As a London based Welshman it was great to see so much Welsh produce and the menus were imaginative and Amazingly tasty.

Will definitely be back

Delicious food with a focus on quality Welsh ingredients. Menu making the best of that Welsh produce with imaginative twists. Very well presented.

All round fab experience! Food was absolutely amazing, lovely atmosphere, gentle but up to date music playing, attentive but not over the top service. Definitely one to revisit next time in London.

Food was amazing from the start to the end . We love good food and we couldn’t fault one thing , so much flavour. Great service as well we are looking forward to going back .

The menu is the big attraction at Tom Simmons. I've only ever chosen from the set lunch menu, but, despite the relatively short number of choices on offer, it has never failed to provide tip-top, inventive dishes, served by friendly staff. The decor is shiny and the big glass windows let the light in nicely. While the views are fairly ordinary - mostly other aspects of a large moden development - the location, near the Thames at Tower Bridge, and only a few minutes walk from London Bridge rail and underground stations, is an area bustling with attractions.

Came back after one year from my last visit, discovered this little gem thanks to my girlfriend and we both fell in love with the cuisine, the restaurant is quite small but is always full so I recommend to book in advance! We shared all the food and all was amazing, I love exploring new restaurant in London and Tom Simmons is my number one restaurant so far.
Keep going like this team!

Outstanding cuisine. We live locally and this is by far our favourite restaurant.

Another great visit to Tom Simmons. and ... I ll be back next week again .. Hurrah. Keep it up guys. Wonderful food... great service...

Fabulous evening. Food was delicious as were the cocktails. Great atmosphere.

Excellent food with great service & a fantastic location.

Such a pleasure to find really well-cooked, imaginative and very tasty food at a very good price. The service was very professional, the ambience relaxed, and we had a very enjoyable lunch. So nice not to be the least bit disappointed in a new London restaurant. The Tea-brined Chicken was brilliantly crunchy, moist and so tasty, and really good bread and flavoured butters. The cod and lamb mains were thankfully not too big, but again packed with well balanced flavours. I can't honestly say that the chips were amongst the best I've had (certainly not after the original triple-cooked chips at the Hand and Flowers), but novel and good enough. We were very glad we squeezed in the warm chocolate mousse, as it was quite perfect and even better with the piquant sorbet. A really excellent lunch.

Food and restaurant were great- chips lived up to expectations! Service was good but a little slow. Overall would recommend.

The food was amazing, great staff very knowledgable with top recommendations- will definitely come back

A lunchtime catch up with a former colleague so enjoyed the set menu which was excellent value, beautifully presented and exceptionally good

Fourth time eating here and definitely not the last. Outstanding cooking, really excellent. And I think the price is very good value considering the quality, especially the set menus. I'm going to keep going until they win a Michelin star and put the prices up!

Wonderful and tasty food with fantastic staff serving.

V relaxed dining room style in upstairs dining. Pan fried monkfish was extraordinary. Our table also ordered roast lamb. This was excellent and v reasonable price. Monkfish was bit expensive. Overall v pleasant, service was swift and attentive. Will visit again.

Delicious pre theatre supper. Food served in lovely warm dishes that kept it hot!

Would recommend this restaurant to family & friends

Amazing food. Very attentive staff. Imaginative menu.

Outstanding food in a warm and Cosy environment!
Definitely a place where to eat

Highest quality food at best possible prices with engaged unpretentious service.

The chips are as good as you would hope! We had the beef and fish and chips, both good. The tea brined chicken and scallops were also very tasty. All wines were solid. Overall very happy with our meal here.

Fantastic food and fantastic service. Highly recommended #Pembrokeshire Thanks Tom Simmons

We were looking for somewhere to have fantastic food that would be fairly quiet. I booked through Open Table and saw the mushroom croquettes on the menu. They were even better than I’d hoped for! The service was good and the rest of the food was excellent.

Great food, ambience a little lacking but that’s because we dined early so it wasn’t ‘buzzy’ yet. Service could have been a tad more alert and proactive...for a pre theatre reservation it’s good to have service team overly check in to get those orders in within minutes of seating. But very friendly and competent overall :)

Very friendly staff and excellent treatment
Asthonishing cooking

The food was absolutely delicious and perfectly cooked, and the service was there when we needed it and not when we didn’t.

some of the best food i’ve ever had, would have liked it a bit more busy and atmospheric though !
