Fri evening was quite quiet at first, but it did get busier as the night went on. That made it a great spot to catch up with an old friend over dinner and a few glasses. We ordered from the chopped menu, and I had the Chicken Pie and the Eton Mess. Let me tell you, that Chicken Pie was delicious! We chomped on that quick time!! The portion size was just right, so there was enough room (just) to fit dessert in. I don't usually go for Eton Mess as I'm not a fan of meringue, but I wanted something summery, and this actually turned out to be a good choice. Thankfully, there were only a few small pieces of meringue, and something suspiciously like Angel Delight - regardless, it was nice. The staff were friendly and accommodating, giving us time and space to enjoy our evening.

For the prices there which you could check before you go : On arrival no coat taken, no check back during the meal, £1 of contribution for whatever reason, 13.50% service charge with no service just plates served at the table, my 5yo chic could do it, no chat during my meal, sides 2 times smaller than nice restaurants around, « no goodbye » no nothing on departure just some good money spent for no reason. The only good point : the meat was cooked properly !

Lovely staff, good food but was disappointed that the restaurant wasn’t the same as used on the First Dates TV program. Because I had seen the original in Paternoster square I got a bit lost trying to find this one

This is the place if you are looking for great steak in a casual and lively environment. We landed at Paternoster after a week filled with all the ethnic foods and found this perfect spot for more traditional food. The ribeye was on point. The separate sides lacked some selection on the veggie side, but the mash potatoes and fries were good. The comments from our table said it was the best meal of the week. I agree.

Good food but nothing special. The service was also good but nothing outstanding. The apple crumble was smaller than you’d expect! Actually, the smallest I have ever eaten in London and that for a proud price of 9£!

Restaurante especializado en carne cerca de St Paul's Cathedral. Espacio grande y con una decoración muy acorde a la comida que se sirve (disponen también de terraza exterior). No tienen una carta especialmente extensa pero que cubre todos los gustos, con varios starters y sides para acompañar la elección de carne. En nuestro caso probamos el beef tartar y el corte de cordero, ambos muy buenos. Disponen de menú cerrado a un muy buen precio y opción para niños. Servicio muy correcto.

Decent steaks and sides. The £23 cheese board was very disappointing: 3 small wedges straight from the fridge, no indication of what these were and half a packet of water biscuits scattered in a clumsy attempt to disguise the small portions. Makes you question the value of the rest of the meal, which is definitely priced at the higher end.

Primera visita reservada por recomendación. Mesa de seis con cuatro de nosotros pensando que las chuletas de cordero deben estar buenas. El restaurante no está ocupado, pero aún así tomó 30 minutos para servir. Solo una sola chuleta y tan decepcionado! Duro y estricto y los cuatro de acuerdo. ¡Quedado todavía sintiendo hambre y muy decepcionado y encima a un precio elevado! No vale la pena y no volvería!

Very mixed feeling on this place, for the following reasons: It's a steak joint, so you're expecting a great cut, perfectly cooked. On this, it was delivered and enjoyed immensely. However, there were lots of elements surrounding this which really didn't marry up to the price tag...let me break them down: 1) upon arrival (early booking on Sat night for 4 people), restaurant was completely empty party from a table of 4 in the far corner. I have no issues with this, it's early right? However, the 'gentleman' greeting us was incredibly condescending / non welcoming...opening the dialogue with 'errrr, do you have a booking?' Once booking confirmed, he proceeded to walk us to sit right next to the only other people in the restaurant! We weren't having this, and very firmly told him nope, we'll sit on this table over here. Sour taste left in mouth from the offset, which is never a good thing. As mentioned main course Tomahawk steak was great, no complaints (but the incredibly unfriendly intro to the restaurant made us want to look for issues!). - bernaise sauce: bad. We sent it back. - side chips: oil needs to be changed, as dirty. Spinach: lovely Mushrooms: standout side dish Wine list: eclectic. Not overpriced, but unless you know your way around a global wine selection, you may struggle. Overall, I wouldn't go back.

Una visita el viernes por la noche a este restaurante, que era sorprendentemente tranquilo, con amigos era para probar los filetes que se ofrecen. Con avidez le pedí al chateaubriand que tuviera por mi cuenta, y el filete se cocinó bien por medio raro. La comida no tenía el factor 'wow' considerando cuánto costaba, sin embargo es un restaurante lo suficientemente sólido si te apetece un filete caro.

I went to Paternoster Chop House for the first time last week and what an experience. The food (especially the steak) was delicious, the service was great and it had a great ambience. I found the prices pretty comparable to the usual chain steakhouses and it was worth every penny. The steal melted in my mouth and the desserts looked delicious. If you're looking for somewhere to go on a date night or for something special this is somewhere that should be on your list

I am staying near this restaurant for a few days so I came for lunch yesterday and having a prawn cocktail starter and a cheese board was not a problem even though they were very busy. The food and service were top notch so I came back for dinner tonight and wow! Sirloin steak and mushrooms cooked to perfection. Creamed spinach (no chips as not a fan - I know weirdo ) and excellent wines by the glass. It's rare that I'd come back to a restaurant two days in a row as I like to explore but the friendly service and excellent food ... maybe I'd come tomorrow just to try the puddings if I was staying longer!

This is the third time I have been here andI have always had very good food. Previously I had the ribeye but this time chose the pork chop and all have been very tasty, well presented and very well cooked. This time we sat outside and, although this is in central London, it is quiet and peaceful. The restaurant is nicely decorated and spacious and the staff are very helpful and friendly. It is quite expensive but I am from Bristol so maybe the prices are around average for central London. Overall a very good restaurant.

I don't like complaining in public so after a disappointing evening here I sent the following email directly to the restaurant. A week later, they can't be bothered to reply so then you are forced to publicly let others know. If you are thinking of having a celebration dinner here, I wouldn't bother. Hello, I booked a table for 5 last night at Paternoster. On your booking website, you ask if this is for a special occasion - it was - our 30th wedding anniversary - and a surprise for my wife that our children were coming. I thought as you had asked and asked if we had any notes about that - that your restaurant might just acknowledge it was a special occasion - but nothing - nothing at all. It just felt like a normal dinner night around our dinner table - except it cost £200. If you’re not going to do anything then don't ask the question - unless it is purely for your own marketing information - then let the customer booking know that so they can opt-out. It was meant to be a big surprise anniversary celebration... Chris W.

Thursday night and the place was very quiet only 5 tables had people on them. Had the chateaubriand which I shared with a colleague, was ok quality, not great. No way it was 600g, left hungry despite dropping over 100 per head. Sides were below average, roasted garlic was raw, fat chips were good. Peppercorn sauce was watery and tasteless.... had to grind pepper into it to make it taste of pepper. Didn't want to complain, the service was very good.

As with probably many, we booked this on the back of being a 1st dates restaurant. We’d passed the venue a couple of times prior to our reservation. The venue was dead. When we arrived we were just one of 2 tables there. The food choice was limited, and for what it was, was very pricey. The venue looked tired in decor and air con we were sat near was clattering. The food was cooked ok, not much to it really, nothing that stood out to what i could get at an average half decent pub, but at fraction of price. The bill included 12.5% service charge which I don’t consider very British. I always tip around 10%, but to have this forced onto the bill I feel is insulting. I can’t say I was overly impressed and wouldn’t visit again in a hurry. I suppose to pay for table water, sides to go with mains is also considered Standard, but when it makes a small chicken and chips priced at £32 and bottle of water for £4.90 it’s not attracting repeat custom.

Stopped in for an early dinner with my family. They had three tables seated, and said they wouldn’t be able to seat us because they were fully booked. I pulled up open table on my phone, and there were loads of reservations available, so I said okay, I’ll just book it on open table. The host got a manager and they were magically able to squeeze us in, but said we could only have the table for an hour due to their many reservations. We stayed, and the waiter was incredibly rude throughout our entire dinner. I ordered the steak and asked for it to be cooked medium and he told me no. They only cook it medium rare. I said I would order something else, and he said he would ask the chef to cook it to medium, but no promises. The food took forever to arrive, and then was mediocre at best. Soggy bread on the burger, cold chips, etc. We finally got our bill and paid, and couldn’t help but notice the restaurant still only had 4 tables seated. So much for being fully booked. I did mention my dissatisfaction/how rude the waiter was to the manager as we left, and he seemed unbothered/uninterested.

Had an early dinner hear on a voucher to see if it was worth all the hype, it isn't! Welcome was lovely nice chatty guy who saw us to our table, waiter arrived to take our drinks order which arrive in good time and then proceeded to take our food order. When the food turned up neither steak was cooked as we asked I would have said it was someone else's order but there was only three couple in this early and the others were only just ordering. The poor waitress was a bit flustered but took the orders again and next time they turned up fine. The quality was below what I had expected and not as good as other steak houses we have been to. Would not recommend the Paternoster Chop house and feel it is living on its past reputation which will run out soon.

This was my first time going and the restaurant was chosen as it had good reviews and good vegetarian options for one of our guests. It was extremely busy and the noise levels were so high it was difficult to hear and have a conversation without shouting. I even moved seats to see if that worked. The acoustics aren’t great when full so it’s more like a bar noise level wise than a restaurant. The food was good with wide choice but the above issue unfortunately spoilt our experience. They also forgot a side order but other than that the service was good and the staff pleasant. Just worth bearing in mind possibly mid week lunchtime (peak) so unless you want noisy and not conversation perhaps choose elsewhere. It was a Wednesday by the way.

Nice restaurant space with lots of space between tables. So could talk. Service was good. Food was dreadful. Tasteless snacks, bread tasted old, Steak sandwich was rubbish. The meat was over cooked and cold , the roll was dry and hard. The prawn cocktail was terrible. The prawns were not cleaned and portion was small. Chips were cooked and seasoned well. Although the service staff said he would tell the chef which is great but maybe he should have asked us would we like a replacement steak sandwich or something else. But I will still say the service staff were good.

I booked a table for 5.30pm on a Tuesday and whilst it was quiet when we arrived, it was pretty much full when we left around 6.45pm so always a good idea to book ahead if you are looking to eat early. I started off with the tomato salad which was very flavoursome and followed this with the 'catch of the day', lemon sole in a caper and butter sauce accompanied by a side dish of stem broccoli with garlic and peppers, a perfect combination. The fish was cooked to perfection. My friend opted for a prawn cocktail to start with which was garnished with three very succulent king prawns and she followed this with the coronation chicken pie which was delicious. The staff were all very friendly and attentive and I can recommend this place without reservation. Thank you everyone.

Paternoster Chop House used to be a really great experience. It was located at Paternoster Square just by St. Paul’s and was vibrant and truly wonderful. Well… no more! They’ve relocated around the corner to 35 Old Bailey and to say it’s all gone wrong is an understatement! It’s a Saturday night and we’re one of two couples in the restaurant, there’s zero ambience, the food is still expensive - but wholly unjustifiably. Give this one a miss - don’t make the mistake we made and be fooled into thinking it’s the same as it was - it most definitely is not!

Disappointing, service was very slow despite restaurant nearly empty. Food very average for cost and then noted on bill the excessive service charge. We sat for 20 mins with no drinks when first arrived, drinks took a further 10 mins. Food arrived very quickly, we ate and left as service so poor and restaurant had zero ambiance. The chef was sitting out on one of the tables on his phone half the time we were there. Our booking was 730 on a Saturday night, thought it would be a great venue for our anniversary but was so dissatisfied.

I went to Paternoster Chophouse for coffee to host a meeting and the staff created an exceptional experience for me. They are all very well trained and kind people, everyone I spoke to was incredibly hospitable and went above and beyond. They flexed their opening hours to accommodate me as well. It highlights the importance of service and how the overall experience makes you feel. A particular shoutout to Martin who made sure I was happy and had everything I need. It was a great hospitality experience and I will be back. The food looked epic as well!

Great steak but expensive considering no sides are included. A few things were off of the menu on the night so very few alternatives to chips for sides. Overall nice restaurant and good food.

Restaurant very quiet. Only three tables booked. Not a big choice of menu. Been to restaurant twice previously before it moved location and was a lot better previously. Staff lovely.

PEOPLE WITH ALLERGIES DO NOT GO HERE. This place poisoned my boyfriend on his 25th birthday. I booked this place as he’s always wanted to go here, on booking the place I notified them of his peanut allergy twice, and on entering the restaurant I reminded them AGAIN, and when we sat down and then again when he ordered. The waiter advised which food to order and we set about the meal. A minute into eating his mouth started to tingle, a few minutes later he had to leave to throw up. We had to immediately leave in order to make sure he’s safe and to take him to the hospital if needed. They denied any wrongdoing and any peanuts and offered no refund. They ruined my partners birthday and literally POISONED HIM. We had to cancel our reservations for drinks and activities after. Regardless of this the food just tasted really salty, and there were only two other couples in the restaurant. The ambience was off because it was so empty, I do NOT recommend.

I am writing to express my wholehearted gratitude to all the wonderful restaurant staff we met in the Northall when our party visited for the 3 course set lunchtime menu. This visit was a surprise early birthday present; maintaining the pretence until we entered the Corinthia Hotel to be warmly greeted at reception to confirm the booking. The service and food was exemplary, complimenting the classic décor and relaxing atmosphere perfectly. Having previously worked in the hotel industry, this experience affords me a practical perspective how all your staff went above and beyond to ensure that every detail was taken care of, and I truly appreciate their efforts. Thank you for making this occasion a memorable one, and I look forward to visiting again in the not too distant future.

Excellent burger cooked properly and very tasty. The side of chips with rosemary are delicious. The service was kind and friendly and also helpful. We waited just long enough for our burger. Try it!! Everything is gluten free Cost in line with London prices

I'm not sure what all the fuss is about British tea service. I was happy to roll along, but felt a bit tense. Then the server spilled a big glob of strawberry jam on my shoe. And all the tension went away. Tea and sarnies and pastries all excellent, of course.
