We went to The Tasting Room before going to The Grand Theatre. We started off the evening with a fantastic dinner that was cooked to perfection, The service was just great. Knowing that we were going to the theatre the staff made sure we had time to enjoy our meals and make it to the Grand on time. And we were not rushed, The Tasting Room is just GREAT. I have nothing but good things to say about the Tasting Room.
We have been to this restaurant a number of times and have reccommended it to many people. The spring roll sare great and we get them everytime. Although the atmosphere is a little on the load side, the food is worth it. The only thing that I reccomend is that you make reservations, it seems to always be full (they need to expand).
I would have to say that the tasting room has been my favourite restaurant in london for the last few years-I would definitely categorize myself and my close friends as regulars. Having said that you're probably wondering why my ratings aren't all tens. I still really enjoy going there but I have found that the recent obnoxious crowds I've been seated beside and the lack of background music have provided a slightly undesireable atmosphere. More importantly, me and my girlfriends' three favourite appetizers have all been removed from the menu which is so devastating. Not that there aren't other really tasty things to snack on but seriously-the lobster and crab rangoon, the coconut lobster and the caribbean shrimp and banana curry were hands down the most delicious AND unique appetizers that you can't find on menus at other resturants. Why would you keep boring generic appetizers like bacon wrapped scallops, grilled tiger shrimp, bruscetta and chicken satays on the menu when you can separate yourselves from other restaurants with more unique options. Please bring back our favourites!!!!
We were warned when we made reservations that there was only one table left and 6:00 was a super-busy time if we wanted to get to the Grand by 7:30. As soon as we walked in the door we were seated instantly. The wine and bread came minutes later. The service was consistently prompt and courteous. As far as food quality, the ceasars were fine although the lettuce was warm which is not to my tastes (extra bacon next time please..it was great).Although the waiter did ask how the beef should be done he did not ask about about the pork, which ended up a bit overdone. A minor thing though considering the size of the proportions and that all the food arrived hot, which is something a lot of restaurants seem to have a problem with(?) Definitely going back.........
i am yet to have a bad meal at this place i've been there various times and it is great all the time i've eat probably one of the best hamburgers in town and the buchetta well it is to die for. all that is needs to say is keep up a good work to management and staff tasting room is probably one of the top restaurants in london.
