Sea bass wasn’t very filling - for the price, I would have expected at least some vegetable sides. Our pancakes came out room temperature and chewy, and we ended up returning the dish :-/

We were really pleased with the correct service, pleasant atmosphere and, above all, good food. There isn't an overly extensive menu but, whatever you choose, it doesn't disappoint. On the other hand, the variety of drinks and cocktails is extensive. Very good burger, recommended, with a meat flavor that I prefer to eat without sauces. Location in the middle of Portobello. Make a stop!

Searching for a late breakfast around the portobello road google suggested the electric diner , on arrival the place was buzzing , fab (low volume) 80’s club tracks being played , and delicious looking brunch dishes prepared in the open kitchen The welcome was to be honest pretty bland , we hadn’t booked -it was busy , but we pointed out we’d happily sit at the bar and so joined other customers patiently waiting to be served , which is the only apparent issue here …waiting for service , the wait for cutlery after food has been set down, and the wait for the opportunity to have another drink or for dishes to be cleared ….it’s a real shame -and a obvious frustration to the behind the bar staff The food and drinks were delicious , from a full English breakfast to the largest slice of french toast with a delicious raspberry coulis and whipped crème fraiche , cocktails and fruit smoothies we will definitely return A little bonus , if you have a ticket for the iconic electric cinema next door …you’ll get a discount of 50% off your meal

Weird brunch menu at 3pm Mothering Sunday. Unattentive staff didn’t ask if all ok. My steak wasn’t rib eye as stated , was tiny, rare, tough and not cooked to medium rare as requested. And cost - £34. …. Disappointing. Waited about 15 mins for a scoop of ice cream (itself weirdly unpleasant). Good chips & music though.

I used to visit the Electric regularly, very disappointed, first time back in around a year. There were quite a few problems to be noted. 1) we were sat and waited for menus up until I had to get up and ask for them. 2) Mozzarella sticks came before our water or our drinks! 3) Ribs overly smoked and we're not nice at all, no one ate them at the table. 4) one of our desserts the lemon tart was considerably smaller than on previous visits. 5) The Service was absolutely atrocious, I've never seen it so bad there and the restaurant was EMPTY so they can't even use "BUSY" as an excuse. 6) we ordered the bill and we all decided to pay in cash in Great British Pounds, the currency of this country and our waiter said they don't take cash and proceeded to get the manager. The manager turned up and started waving his hands and pointing at the cash saying "we don't take this, we don't take it" The manager and I proceeded to disagree with eachother and he told me it's written on the menu, it might be but it's not plastered and who looks for how you are able to pay, he said that he "knew" we had cards, regardless of the fact if we had cards or not, there should have been no issues with the acceptance of cash. Due to the manager being rude I suggested that he take the cash and work out how to pay the bill, it's not my problem, he then took the cash and said I can't give you change and then walked away and presumably paid the bill. I feel extremely let down and what was once such a cool and chic venue has turned into one that I don't think I would go back to again.

we were a group of 6 and arrived at 9am for brunch, food was good but the service and arrival of the food was really scattered with some being served 15 minutes after the first food was out, a side of back arriving a good 5 plus minutes before the eggs that it was supposed to go with so it had to be sent back to be warmed up. Took 20 mins to get a filter coffee after ordering at the outset even though other coffees arrived way earlier, and this early in the brunch time and it was not so busy when we arrived. hard to fathom why the kitchen works to achieve this chaos and it left us feeling less good in what was meant to be a treat. and fortunately we were enjoying each other s company so the time passed smoother than it if had been a working breakfast or a meeting.

Service was terrible. Coffee took over 30 minutes, then a power outage further delayed our food. Waitstaff were rude, unhelpful, and we refused to pay service charges. Their attitude towards their job was evident and affected their performance. Despite positive reviews, I'm hesitant to recommend this place. Food was average, nothing special too. Music was too loud that it’s even hard to talk . Very stupid experiences.

The Electric Diner on Portobello Road is a culinary gem that seamlessly blends a chic, retro ambience with a modern, electric flair. This diner, known for its eclectic menu, truly comes alive with its signature dish: the honey fried chicken. The dish is a masterful symphony of flavors, where the succulence of perfectly fried chicken meets the sweet, mellow caress of honey. Each bite is a delightful crunch, leading into the tender, juicy meat within, creating a taste sensation that's both comforting and exhilarating. The honey adds a subtle sweetness that complements the chicken's natural flavors without overpowering them, making it an unforgettable dish that lingers in your memory long after the meal is over. Furthermore, the Electric Diner's atmosphere adds to the overall experience. Set in the vibrant and eclectic Portobello Road, the diner's décor is a thoughtful blend of vintage charm and contemporary style, creating a cozy yet lively setting. The staff's attentive service ensures that every visit is memorable, making you feel welcomed and cherished. Whether it's for a casual brunch or a special night out, the Electric Diner offers an experience that's as unique and delightful as its honey fried chicken. In summary, it's a must-visit for both locals and tourists, promising a culinary journey that tantalizes the taste buds and warms the heart.

I went to eat here at the diner with my family last night and the service was so bad we had to leave before our mains came. So we asked the manager for a takeaway, she was kind and explained how unhappy she was too with the service we were given and gave us a small percentage off our bill. We didn’t even end up eating our takeaway as it was freezing cold but we had steak tartare for starter at the restaurant before we left and every one of us started to feel unwell, all night all 3 of us have been vomiting up until now. It is an outrage that somewhere like electric soho house could provide us with this kind of service and the food poisoned us. I’ve been multiple times before to the private members bit upstairs and never had an issue like this, my first time eating at the diner and my last!

Unfortunately we arrived for our reservation to a number of menu items being unavailable, these things happen. However we then started to proceed to request a number of other items which it transpired half of the ingredients were missing so unable to be cooked or prepared as advertised. Given this situation we had no choice but to leave without eating and had to venture to an alternative restaurant and queue given we had no reservation. A disappointing start to our new year which is a shame as the Electric has always been okay before. In fairness to the staff they were very apologetic and understanding of our decision to leave.
