   As a party we were disappointed with our overall experience 5 of us ordered from the a la carte menu - The food took along time to arrive and when it did we had issues with 4 of the orders The baked eggs were clearly still raw and the service themselves realised this as they went to put it on the table and asked if I wanted it taken back - which of course I did Then the other 3 peoples issue was the food was cold My baked eggs then took an age to come back which went I ended up eating my food on my own as everyone else had finished what they could The server asked us if we enjoyed our experience and we gave honest feedback at the time and to their credit they apologised and gave a discount off the bill without us needing to say anything - so that was a positive So service was good, but the food was a real let down and perhaps something that needs to be looked at Based on this experience unfortunately I would not go back

   So this isn’t a free standing restaurant, it’s a Marriott restaurant in the hotel. You’ll dine with Marriott platinums at the free breakfast buffet.

   Inside a Marriott. Service geared towards use of buffet incl. with your room. Waited >30 min for glass of water/table setting, 45 min for our drinks, and food never came “waiter handed off ur order and went on break, we put it in now”.

   In 1 word? Mario. The Bartender on Saturday night was attentive, knowledgeable and very easy to talk to. An absolute asset to the business. We came in as a group of 7 in London for business, and decided upon the Pickled Hen when our original booking fell through. (on that note I would recommend NOT using "open table" as they didn't book our table correctly either.) We were greeted with a table in the bar area big enough for all of us and a very freindly waiting staff. The food was nothing special but but no means bad. I had the burger and enjoyed it thoroughly (my feedback would be to offer it cooked less than well done if the customer wants). But the cocktails! The cocktails were phenomenal. Mario had his fundamentals down, and it made all the difference. No premade espresso in sight, tasting each and every cocktail and the drinks menu was non existant. if you asked for it, he'd make it for you. I can't thank him enough for what could've been a failure of a night for the group. Well done.

   Rates itself very highly, but a pretty average experience with bland, expensive food.
