Excellent attentive service, The steak was excellent, but the Chicken Kiev was distinctly light on the expected garlic! The dining area was full so there was a lot of background noise, but we were still able to hold a comfortable conversation.

We have visited here a number of times and always had a great experience. Whether you want a few cocktails at the bar or the terrace overlooking the river, or a meal in the restaurant I would highly recommend. The service is exceptional, rarely do they leave you with an empty glass! The food is excellent, and good value. The Cocktails are always quality, and amazing value if you visit during happy hour!

Wonderful food and ambience at this riverside restaurant. As usual, the Roux family does not disappoint. Wonderful flavours, service and decor. A good variety of gluten-free options as well! If you go, try their desserts for sure.

Avoid. Spend your money at better establishments in the area, having being used to bars in London and great customer service we wanted to try something a little outside we drove past one day and decided to head back for happy hour another day. Stood at the bar for 15 mins upon arriving no acknowledgement or welcome into the venue, completely ignored. Staff were more interested in bickering with each other in front of us making it very awkward. Eventually upon asking we were served only we waited a further 20 mins for our drinks to be made and only to have to ask again having paid a 'service charge' for ordering at the bar.. what service? To top things off dirty venue couldn't even be bothered to clean the tables. More worried about impressing guests dressed and who looked different to us. Will not be heading here again and advise you to do the same... hall and Woodhouse around the corner is great! Photo attached of state of tables

We visited Roux for the first time last night for my birthday. We had such a wonderful and delicious meal. We largely ate from the weekday set menu which was so delicious and very good value. I will be returning to try their usual menu too. We went early to enjoy the sun and a cocktail on in the bar too. Our server was Cookie who was so friendly and accommodating. Will be recommending to friends and also returning soon for more lovely food. Fantastic atomosphere - very welcoming

Celebrated our engagement, but also our 4 year anniversary, last night with a meal for two at Skindles. The location of the restaurant is stunning, over looking a part of the River Thames providing lovely scenic views. The service provided was great, everybody from bar staff to wait staff were very friendly, put forward great recommendations, and clearly had a rapport with a lot of other patrons. To start, along with the bread and olives, I had the prawn cocktail. I was very grateful that the prawns were deshelled, and found them to be large and juicy. For my main, I had the sirloin steak (rare) and sweet potato fries. The steak was cooked well, but the sweet potato fries were king - I don't know how they made them so crispy yet soft. The dish also came with a grilled little gem lettuce - I personally don't understand the 'trend', it didn't add or take away anything from the dish. I was full by the time dessert came, but It's always the best course and it did not disappoint. The crème brûlée and raspberry sorbet was truly divine - shame I had to share it! To round things off, the staff bought out a plate with a small treat congratulating us on our engagement. From a cost aspect, I felt some items were fair, others probably a bit over priced, but on the whole it was a really nice experience and would recommend visit.

A lovely lunch today, which was a belated birthday celebration. We felt we'd chosen the perfect place. A warm welcome from friendly, very efficient staff (patient too; four friends getting together who talk rather than look at menus). Great food (including succulent, crisp calamari, perfectly cooked steaks, a delicious bourride), lovely views over the river. And unprompted by us, an extra birthday dessert. All in all, an excellent afternoon

Absolutely the best dining experience so far. Impeccable service from the staff, warm friendly, efficient and attentive along with a real personal touch. The food served is simply better than anythin I have tasted in a long while. My fellow diners agreed. We dined on a ranged on chicken wings, snails, salmon and calamari for starters, main courses include Roast Chicken, Roast Chicken, Roast Pork and a Burger. Nothing was left on anyones plates even though the portion sizes were generous. 5 stars for everything.

The food was great, but the service and cocktails were the star of the show! We were served cocktails upstairs by Joe who was absolutely amazing and was the perfect introduction to the Roux experience, which was only matched by Cookie (apologies if spent wrong) our Brasserie waiter! Cookie and Joe met all of our expectations and made my Dad’s birthday meal out an excellent experience. Thank you so much to both of you and all of the staff at Roux at Skindles - we will be back again!! ❤️

The starter and the roasts we chose were delicious. The dessert of Apricot had cold pieces of fruit. When I asked if it was meant to be cold, the server didn’t know and said he thought that it should be warm. That was it. Service was without any warmth other than the first person that took our drinks order. No smiles and the person I gave feedback about the dessert spent more time speaking to two specific couples that he appeared to know. We were not asked whilst eating if the food was ok and if everything was good. At a place like Roux, you expect top quality service and we certainly didn’t get that. Great Sunday Roast, but don’t expect a smile if they don’t know you.

Came here at Roux at Skindles (Michelin guide) for Sunday Roast on Sunday. Need reservation however it’s easy to book. Sunday roast (we ordered both pork and beef) - It was ok but unremarkable. Bread wasn’t that great. Desserts were ok too. To be honest, the quality (both food and service) was similar to other restaurants or pubs which are not in Michelin guide.

We treked from West London to this Michelin guide restaurant. We were able to book a table the day before but not at the window. We felt the service was a bit haphazard and the waiter was abrupt. We ordered the Sunday roast. But after a few minutes we were still missing vegetables and gravy and had to ask. It seemed that perhaps they were a bit overworked. The roast beef was fine but quite unremarkable. I'm afraid not worth the journey especially considering the price tag.

Went for a celebratory meal on our daughters latest school report. Had a couple of cocktails upstairs and also took advantage of their cocktail happy hour. The happy hour cocktails are from a set menu and nothing is compromised on taste or quality at a great price. Also tried some of their new cocktails and these were fantastic. Our daughter had the Tangerine mocktail and it's to die for (considering there's no alcohol too) Dinner downstairs, ordering some of our favourites of snails, souffle and prawn cocktail. Opted for steak and veal for main course - all of which was well cooked. Finished with crepe suzette and a couple of glasses of port. One glass of port had a little too much sediment - spoke to the team and it was rectified straight away and in expectation of the service and standard you would expect. Fantastic evening (as always, and we go several times a year). Would I recommend - Yes Would I go again - Yes

On a miserable wet February lunchtime this was a lovely spot by the bridge. I can only imagine how great it would be in the summer. Very friendly and attentive service and we all enjoyed prawn cocktails, soup, skate, sea bream and accompanying veg and potatoes, all very accomplished cooking. And special mention for fantastic bread, don’t miss out on that. Decent value we all thought. Not cheap but you have to pay for good quality ingredients and cooking and the location so no complaints

Having been a few times to the Waterside and le Gavroche (and Maidenhead’s Fat Duck and Hind’s Head) we just had to sample Skindles for our Christmas lunch. Everyone and everything were five star. Cocktails first in the cocktail bar, courtesy of Oli, on the first floor, then downstairs for our lunch. Elodie took our booking on the phone and greeted us when we arrived, then Joe and Stefano looked after us at the table, with Antonio serving me a fantastic Old Fashioned. We had to go thank head chef Ricardo as every mouthful was absolutely delicious. Having a teen daughter on hand to give us a lift there and back was the icing on the cake 😊

Overall, we had a good lunch at the Roux Skindles location. However, our main course of venison was not acceptable! Slightly tough and although we pointed this out to the staff, no one was interested in changing it or alternatively refunding, some of the cost. So it was a disappointment. Especially as I was introducing the restaurant to a good friend.

The quality of the food is always exceptional, the atmosphere is warm and friendly, and the service is exquisite. All the staff, from the manager to chefs and waiters are so friendly and efficient and we have always been made to feel very welcome. We went out to other side of the river last night and the Skindles Christmas lights really light up the river - so beautiful and inviting! We stepped into the upstairs cocktails bar and I ordered a glass of Champagne Cocktail; Paolo is master with the cocktails and he made it to a perfection! My husband had his favourite Skindles hot dog with wine. All very enjoyable. We feel so fortunate to have Roux Brasseries in our neighbourhood.

Huge let down over food. I would have expected a Michelin recommendation would go a long way. Calamari over cooked and chewy. Arincini was ok but the mushroom sauce was very thin and semi tasteful. Fish n chips were a joke… oily and burnt batter that was loaded with too much batter and oil sipping through. Atmosphere was ok and service commendable. But if you are coming here for food - expect to be let down considerably

My anniversary dinner at this restaurant was unfortunately a terrible letdown. Despite making a reservation, we were rushed through our three-course meal within an hour. When we tried to move to the bar for a drink at 8 pm, we were abruptly told it was closed, which was surprising given they claimed to be open until 9pm. We were actually chased by the manager shouting that we can finish our drink but “the business is closed” even though there were people still dining. The lack of flexibility and rushed service left a sour taste on our special occasion. The waitress was pleasant, but her apparent expectation of a higher tip than 15% left us uncomfortable. It's disheartening that this restaurant, which isn't exactly budget-friendly, seems to prioritise turnover rather than providing a relaxing dining experience. We were back at our hotel by 8:30, regretting not having just driven considering we don’t live to far away but we had booked a hotel for the occasion! This experience has left us with the impression that this restaurant might not stay in business for much longer, and it's truly sad to witness. I won't be returning here in the future. I have been here once before and wasn’t very impressed so this was a second chance. Such a shame.

Had cappuccino offee and a cake. Coffee was poor (bitter, small), cake was ok. Had to go up to collect cake after coffees had been brought to table without. Cost moderate but not a lot less than much better nearby. Hopefully was off day, but they will have to up their game to attract me in again.
