Scarlet Grill in Tower Hamlets

Located in the heart of London’s theatre district. Not so fancy but very friendly service. Food is ok. Pasta is recommended.

First time visiting Smokestak and what a treat it was. The atmosphere of the restaurant compliments the food nicely, even down to the dark attire of the staff and the cool black cutlery. Our waiter was so friendly and attentive (i did ask his name but it’s completely left my memory sorry). He recommend us dishes for our budget and it didn’t fail. The meats were Smokey, soft and succulent. Very well cooked - you can tell that the chefs are excellent at what they do. The small accompaniments of veg (I believe it was chilli and pickles or gherkins) were just the right sourness needed to balance the heavy meats. The chips. My gosh! Best chips that I’ve had in a while. Fresh. Hot. Well-salted. Delicious! I can’t wait to come back with my husband when we are in London again. Highly recommend.

No longer at the site. Not updated their address unable to find them. Asked security they told me they had disappeared

Had an excellent meal at The Plateau. It was a little difficult to find above Waitrose, but once there we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The staff were excellent, very friendly and helpful. My wife is celiac so they made every effort to make sure her needs were taken care of. The quality of the food was very high, tasty and cooked to perfection. The ambience of the restaurant is very pleasant, particularly on the balcony overlooking the square. Finally they treated my daughter to a birthday surprise at the end, which was totally unexpected and a lovely touch. We will definitely be going back and I'd thoroughly recommend this little gem to anybody.

Great porridge. That maple butter on top of it really hits different.
