   Over-priced but decent food. The NED feels like a glorified railway station concourse with non-existent sign-posting. Has notions above its delivery.

   Apart form a general lovely vibe and fantastic food, probably one of the best waiting experiences from Andre we have experienced, who was almost telepathic in his exceptional service. Great venue for a dinner with great live music as a bonus.

   Delightful meal with very generous portions. We stayed for a drink in Nickel’s Bar afterwards. The waiters and waitresses were very attentive.

   We recently dined at Cecconi’s at The Ned and found the overall experience to be enjoyable, though with some reservations. The venue itself is stunning, and the live music from the singers added a wonderful ambiance that elevated the evening. We began with a pre-dinner cocktail, which was expertly made and a lovely way to start. The Kale Caesar Salad was a standout—fresh, flavorful, and a creative twist on a classic. The wine selection was also very good, and we were pleased to find it reasonably priced given the setting. However, not all of the dishes met expectations. The Crab Ravioli was particularly underwhelming—it lacked flavour and didn’t feel like a premium offering. The Seafood Risotto, while tasty, was fairly routine, featuring just a few mussels and king prawns. At £40 per plate, it felt overpriced compared to similar dishes we’ve enjoyed at other quality Italian restaurants. Bread with olive oil was served at the beginning, but it was cold and lacked any real flavour. For dessert, we shared the gelato, which lacked the richness and texture of the gelato we’ve enjoyed elsewhere. Service was efficient, though a bit impersonal. We were asked to vacate our table for dessert and sit at the bar on the stools as it was a busy Sunday evening, but after explaining that my wife has limited mobility, the staff were accommodating. They allowed us to stay longer and later found us more comfortable seating in the main bar. The total bill came to £245 for two people, including three courses with a shared dessert, one cocktail, three glasses of wine, and a tip. While we enjoyed elements of the evening—particularly the entertainment, kale salad, and drinks—the food overall didn’t quite justify the high price tag. A pleasant evening, but not one we’re likely to repeat soon.

   Great night at Cecconi’s with good food and live soul music from the house band.

   0rdered the truffle pasta, got lobster spaghetti and was also charged extra for crab which I didn't order. I've ended up having the most expensive fish on the menu which I didn't order. Was entertaining clients so didn't notice till when checked the bill the day after. Not happy

   Enjoyed a wonderful birthday dinner at Cecconi's - The Ned. This was my first dining experience here and I must say me and all of my friends had a great evening. We were very well looked after by Eriks (apologies if wrong spelling) who helped us with any questions we had with the menu, or allergy enquires. Wonderful service from Eriks. Food and drinks were nice. Would definitely return or recommend. Thank you for a great evening!
