The Hostess (born in Hungary but has lived for 20+ years in Britain) set the tone for a wonderful evening. She knew we would like to have a round table (that was reserved), but noted that we were next to loud people. She went out of her way to show us two other table options. Loved her attention to customer experience. The food was great - especially the Baked Field Mushrooms and Grilled Goat’s Cheese salad. Artichoke dip got mixed feedback from my guests. Ribeye was also slightly fatty but well-seasoned so my guest was happy. For a table of four two courses with wine and coffees came to around 60 per head. Great service and location makes this a go-to choice for informal dining near London Bridge

Was initially apprehensive given that Ting's views might mean that the restaurant borders on touristic (and overly busy such that food and service would be compromised) - although was pleasantly surprised by the overall experience. Food was good, service was impeccable and seamless, and the team was very thoughtful (in assisting with my mum's birthday celebration). Great value for money to, with the weekday set lunch!

The food was wonderful, as was the service. But you come here as much for the view as the meal and it didn’t disappoint!
