It's not the first time we dine there but it is always a pleasure. The food is always good, the staff is very polite and our waiter was outstanding. It is a little bit pricy, but acceptable.

The whole experience from the meet and greet was amazing. Starter ,mains and the desserts were amazing. The staff were exceptional, they made recommendations and couldn’t do enough for us . The whole experience was extremely enjoyable. the only one negative comment that I have is it was nice of the restaurant to spare a candle for the dessert we bought. other than that it was beautiful and would come again and also recommend smiths to friends and family. Thank you Kam Mallan .

An excellent meal again here. Honestly I think you would struggle to find such quality food and great service in a London restaurant for the prices charged. The set menu is side ranging, the portions generous and the service from the waiting staff is extremely friendly, attentive but not intrusive. I've been coming here regularly for a number of years and when I need a London venue I always think of Smiths first
