Top 1 Forever Restaurant in City of London, Westminster

Terrible service! We waited half an hour for the menu, another almost an hour for the meal and at the end it turned out that there was no coffee because the machine was broken!!!

Terrible service, very ignorant waitress, dirty tables, tasteless food, I do not recommend it.

A quiet place but the food was very bad. Although we were starving we were unable to eat it.

Sat down and waited almost 10 minutes for somewhere to ask what drinks we needed. Considering the place only had 11 other people in it, it was quiet. We got our drinks and placed our order. After 45 minutes of waiting for our food, with no one coming to explain that it was going to be a while, we got up and went to pay for our drinks. The waitress then came out, just as we were about to leave and said our food was ready, which by then was too little too late. The waitress was very rude and gave us no apology or explanation why it took so long. I definitely wouldn't recommend going there as whilst we were waiting 2 separate tables sent their meals back. It maybe London but that's no excuse for poor service and rudeness.

The outside chairs have fleas. If you sit there, good chance to be bitten. If you are, black bag and treat your clothes.

Extremely slow service. It took 1h 40min to serve us the first course and the restaurant was not full.

Rugile was my waitress. She’s the best made my mums birthday enjoyable Always served us with a smile best waitress there is super attentive

Perfect steaks. I have never gotten better T-bone steak. Waitress was kind and nice to us. Atmosphere is very calm and pleasuring here. Nice place for having exceptional evening.

Brilliant place. After a long day in the excel at a conference on my feet. It was lush to sit down in this bar. Typical bar grilled food. Decor was nice. Seats were comfy and stylish decor. Nice view of the docks. Ordered the Pork Ribs and fries. Huge ribs thick with meat. Others ordered seafood linguine. Steak. Fish n chips with all glowing reviews. Reasonably priced also with a few drink.

Nice place on the riverside. Unfortunately, the service is not as attentive and quick as expected.

Visited yesterday and it's the worst waiting time ever. Staff not even updating you what's going on. Even when paying your bill, had to make follow-ups. Not going back definitely.

EVIKAS our server was great. He was knowledgeable about the food and patient. He was friendly & courteous as well

Hier 2 avonden gegeten. Beide keren erg lang op het eten moeten wachten. Tussen voor- en hoofdgerecht zeker een uur. Goede menukaart, malse chicken wings, grote mixed grill. Kwaliteit van het eten en de wijnen daarin tegen helemaal prima en ook de bediening had het onder controle.

We waited for almost an hour for our orders, made several follow-ups but no one seems to be paying attention There is nothing significant with the food. We are not coming back :(

Would give a 0 if I could. Rude staff, waited an hour and a half for an English breakfast

40 minutes for an English Breakfast. Check your staff. But that's unacceptable. Very smart way of charging your clients before serving the food, and then make them wait. Ridiculous place.

Typical and standard restaurant in Docklands. We had fish and chips and spare ribs. Both ok. We found the place inside not smelling fresh.

Was ok. Limited menu but food was well cooked hot and tasty. Very young looking staff who waited on the tables with limited menu knowledge. Overall ok

Enjoyed good food reasonable price. Took my son and my dad

Lovely breakfast - quiet here this morning. Definitely worth a visit.

Sirloin steak is the best. The serve is just right size. Visit there in two occasions, definitely the best by the dock.

Avoid this place at all costs. After two hours since we ordered, they told us that we still have to wait for our food. And the food is not good either. Big disappointment.

Incredibly great restaurant, we were here after we took the cable cars. The snack plate is awesome! And please order an Aperol, it's so big and delicious. Price completely humane for London 🫶

The place was a bit cold ! We kept our coats on . There was only one member of staff which meant she was really busy - she did really well !

The food was very nice. Service although attentive was rather slow and it felt a bit chaotic at times

It was very cold in the restaurant. At some point, like many other guests, we put on our jackets. We waited about 90 minutes for our food and it wasn't even particularly good. The ribs and fries were good. The meat platter was served with bagged mashed potatoes and the very small portion of pasta was served with pesto from a jar. We were not satisfied and were very annoyed.

We were staying opposite in the 'Good Hotel' and were searching for an evening meal location. This fitted the bill. We were greeted politely, shown to a table and service was friendly and attentive all evening. Relaxed experience with a wide mix of clientele from large groups to dating couples and all seemed to be having an equally positive experience. Food was tasty, reasonably priced for London and overall was a thoroughly pleasant evening.

We have eaten here before when staying in London for the 02, last time being pre covid! We won’t be returning, food was bland and the restaurant was absolutely freezing, when I mentioned it the waiter offered to bring me a heater, other people were complaining! So £18 for fish and chips that had no taste and my husband had an overpriced burger, then when he asked for BBQ sauce he was told it would cost £2!!!!! £2 for a tiny dish of sauce, never ever have we dined in a restaurant and been charged for a sauce to accompany a meal (ketchup and mayonnaise are free ????) We couldn’t wait to get out of there to warm up.

Food was okay. Came out at different times rather than all together for a table of 6. Startrs didnt say spicy, yet squad was coated in a spicy batter. No mention of this on the menu. Very cold, had to get a heater to keep us warm. Staff were very defensive and didnt seem bothered, told us we could have moved. Considering the whole restaurant was cold. Other customers mentioned the cold. Wouldn't bother returning due to the response of staff.

We had had a disaster of a meal at another restaurant the night before and the staff and food here really turned our experience of London around. Would highly recommend

Service staff was great but not enough of them to cover a full restaurant. Food came out Will do

I'm very disappointed, I was made to wait 45 minutes with my family just for some steak and two kids meals. Was just about to walk out when the food eventually came, the waitress was nice but piss poor service 🙃 1/10

Came here for my birthday meal with my sisters October 2023. Excellent service, food was delicious and the cherry cocktail - yum yum! I’ll be back for Valentine’s Day! 😍

Lovely bar staff, but kitchen seriously couldn’t cope with #Bett2024 traffic from London Excel. Two hour wait for food. Ordered drinks, but each time had to go to the bar to reorder and collect. Bar was closed at 22:55PM. Staff manager told colleagues off publicly which was really bad style…

On entering the empty restaurant was asked if I'd booked?! Really?! What a pointless question! Ordered Ribs, deliciously tender and falling off the bone. Portion of chips a bit small I thought. Very tasty coleslaw on the side. Served quite quickly. My only bugbear was that there were no extra wet wipes for what is obvs a 'fingers using' meal and inherently messy.

Do not order with QR codes on the tables. We ordered our drinks with this QR code: 4 drinks and cheesy fries. Our drinks arrived without problem, except for the cheesy fries: replaced by fried bread and garlic… When we asked the waiter what it was: he told us that the QR code was not valid and that we should not use it: no one told us Order paid.. no solutions found… We are very disappointed.

Staff was so rude! It was the worst food I've ever tasted in my life it gave me the worse food poisoning ever. If you wanna go to the hospital go here but it was so bad. I gag just thinking about it

A beautiful restaurant with the most amazing food and fantastic service. Unfortunately when we came it was completely empty and the area was quiet so there was no atmosphere in the restaurant. Would definitely recommend if it was busy as the food was so good.

Went here on a second date near to Christmas time and it was amazing. Staff were great, even getting us a heater for our table. Food was amazing and really took me by surprise

This place is great-a short walk from the excel, cable cars and elizabeth line. We had a great night fro my boyfriends 18th. The steak was one of the best we have tasted and the gonchi was amazing. A lovely dinner reasonably priced too for the location. We were staying on the sunborn hotel yacht.

Having dinner here tonight. Looked neat in terms of decor and table layout. Tables also neatly laid out. It was very cold there and it took a long time before someone came to ask what you would like to drink. Food was tasty, starters and main courses, but not very much for the price. It's not the cheapest restaurant. When we went to pay, I was first asked if I wanted the change back. When we wanted to walk away, there was an extra payment on the receipt of 12.5% ​​on top of the amount we already had to pay. Almost £10… I asked what this meant, well this meant a tip, which goes to the manager not to the staff. I then indicated that I did not want to pay this and that I would like the money back. I received the answer that I had not indicated that I did not want to leave a tip, so they would just accept it. To which I replied that I had not been asked so I could not indicate anything. When the amount was returned, I was also asked if I wanted the £1.50 back as well, which of course I wanted, if they had asked nicely if I wanted to tip I would have given them the £1.50, but now no.. So be careful when you pay! I don't know if this happens to everyone or just tourists, but sorry, I don't think this is normal..

Great atmosphere, nice and very attentive staff. Unfortunately it was a bit cold but otherwise GREAT!

Just been in best meal we have had for a long time. Perfect lovely place to eat out.

We eat here when going to the o2 as we stay around this area. I had the ribs and others in my group had the burgers. All really good. Service was good also. Only knocked a point off for atmosphere as we all felt the restaurant was a bit cold but they did try to address this for us

Practically an empty evening dinner meal waited ages to be seated. No mention of allergies had to track down staff to be provided with a allergies list book. It was out dated and some meals ingredients have changed I was unable to have my meal due to the kitchen not being equipped with gluten and dairy/lactose free alternatives so was pressured to purchase something far more expensive than my original option. The meal was nice but took ages to arrive same with any drinks and I'm talking max 5 simple drinks. Had to ask for water twice. I was able to haggle some free bbq sauce which would have been 2 pound for a shots worth. The staff seemed judgemental and sassy and untrained considering I had to shout my orders across the table I hope this improves as the food was lovely

I came here with colleagues on a November night as we were staying close by. We all looked at the menu which initially looked interesting but the prices compared with the quality were out of touch. It took a long time to be served and a very long gap between courses. The waitress was very good. I chose crispy squid to start which was like I plate of deep fried rubbers! I chose simple fish and chips which came without its peas altogether. Two of my colleagues had sausage and mash which was good. One had a very average burger. One had a steak which at £29.00 and without sides which had to be ordered separately at £5.00 each, was not good at all. The steak was just ok I was told. I don’t like giving poor reviews, but this was poor.

Fish and chips takeaway. Service was reasonably friendly, but very slow. Chips were thin and dry, fish smelt very strongly and had an odd texture, as did the batter, Be surprised if it was not cooked from frozen. Disappointed.

We had dinner here, just round the corner from Sunborn hotel, perfect location. Food was amazing. Waiter was Alex, very efficient and helpful at recommending food, when couldn't decide what you have! Definitely recommend.

Food was ok, got cold very very quickly because it was freezing in the restaurant. we went on a Saturday night and it was very quiet ( there were 2 tables including us) but we constantly had, what looked like a staff members, child screaming in our ear the whole time. It really disturbed a nice peaceful dinner we wanted and put me off going again. And on top of that the card machines weren’t working for some reason? For a restaurant in London, not great.

Awful customer service, we rung 30 mins prior to our original booking and said we were coming a bit later, they said that should be fine and she will check as she said on the phone (it’s empty in here so the kitchen was going to close early anyway). Not long before we arrived to our booking, the restaurant actually rang us by accident and when I called back the waiter said “will you definitely be coming”. As soon as we arrived, it was not a great atmosphere as there where only 2 other people in there. They decided to tell us last minute at front desk you will need to go get cash out as our card machines have been down since yesterday, which you would think after 3 phone calls with them prior to us arriving that they would let us no it’s cash only?? Can’t comment on food as we walked out.

We had a nice dinner but when we got to the bill we have been told that the payment could only be in cash…to me, this ruined the whole experience: I had to run to an ATM under the rain and pay the conversion from Euro to Pound…not acceptable…

The Food was really good the Service was Top And my Favorite was the BBQ Ribs...If you Like Ribs Witz intensive BBQ Flavor....so Take it!!!!

Probably the best ribs I've had so far, lovely staff and ambiance

Really delicious fish & chips + tasty cider on tap. It's right next to the water with a relaxed interior. Definitely going to come back just for the fish & chips

Amazing restaurant, had some drinks and a chicken burger. Really enjoyed the view outside and nice service!

Very sharp practice with the gratuity routine. Not impressed at all. My server quite smarmy about the whole thing. Essentially, i offered a 10% optional tip, without checking the bill. All together it looked high. On leaving I checked bill in detail and was surprised to discover a gratuity of 12.5% already added! I returned and demanded a refund of my 10%. She should have said the bill already had a 12.5% tip charged already. Bloody disgrace.

Rugilė is the best worker, i really loved her service, she needs a raise NOW

Roberto was a great server! Very attentive and super friendly. We’re on vacation and he made our lunch amazing. Thank you!

Ajin was great. Food really lovely. Reasonably priced for a v nice lunch. Quiet time of day but great location and view. Enjoyed!

Poor service. Won't return. Rude staff.

What a fantastic spot to enjoy delicious food and see beautiful views by the harborside! I ordered the ribs, my dinner mate ordered a burger, all while enjoying a bottle of wine with spectacular views! Gintare, our server, was so kind and attentive. I highly recommend this location to see the unique views that London has to offer…hint, there’s a gondola ride!

Chanced upon this very relaxing restaurant when in the area. We had a lovely breakfast (tasty, filling, not too unhealthy!) overlooking the riverside. Thanks to Ajin for looking after us.

After a dissappointing experience yesterday at a different restaurant, it was very nice to see staff be on point. Actually searcing the room for customer needs and refills. Really good service and good fodd &drinks

Excellent quality restaurant. Food was pricey but superb. Staff could not have been better. Definitely worth it if you want something special.

Great food, friendly staff and excellent service. Skin looked after us really well. Good choice of food. …………………………..

We were a group of 33 people from Australia and only walked in the door 30mins prior to see if they could cater for us and no problem at all ..also they catered for our payment needs the best service ..quality food the whole time in the Uk thanks so much Kamile

Leuk betaalbaar restaurant met een leuk uitzicht op de Docklands, de Canary warf en de haven. Lekkere menukaart.

Had breakfast on the terrace which has a great view. Had to get staff to come and help us as QR code app said nothing was available. There is a limited range of breakfasts but nothing especially inspiring.

Great food and wonderful service. Shirley served us and she looked after us very well. View is lovely

Ajin was a very efficient waiter. He was friendly, knowledgeable and had a great personality. Thank you for a great service.

Came for dinner and ordered the Jopser Grill Mix platter and I would recommend this 100%. Steak was cooked perfectly and ribs were delicious.

Thank you for constant amazing experiences and great food ❤️ Will definitely return soon to try more of your amazing cocktails and dishes 😍

We had a good time with friends.Service excellent.

A friend and I had a lovely lunch at Top 1 Forever. The setting was great, food was good, our waitress, Vaivia, was lovely. I’ll definitely be returning.

The restaurant was very nice, and the waiter was brilliant. Food was good, and the cocktails lovely, generally lovely dinner out. The only disappointment was they had people doing work inside the restaurant and you could hear hammering regularly throughout the meal.

Large party last order in the kitchen after which the chef went home. We wanted a couple of extras so instead of refusing Gabi went to the kitchen and sorted us out some extra salads and dressing etc same with deserts. They were supposed to...

The cocktails were amazing! They have character and personality, not just your typical ones which have a ton of lime and juice. Gabi was our server, super friendly, smiling and a great bartender. 100% worth it to just even pop in for cocktails

Food was great and service by Roberto and Alex was even better! Thank you for making a memorable New Years for us

An amazing restaurant in royal Victoria docks. I’d say the best! Amazing food, super nice and attentive to details service and a very clean place. Highly recommend

Had a nice dinner here on our way to the O2. Service was quick and efficient. Menu was a bit limited but the food when it arrived was hot, tasty and not too much. Prices were in line with dining out in London.

Fantastic service! Very attentive and happy staff. So refreshing! And great food. Despite being incredibly busy, the restaurant ran so smoothly. Highly recommended!

Our waitress was amazing! Rugile you ROCK! Attended to each and every request me and my family had, food was amazing! We had the arancini and goat cheese to start with following the salmon and tortellini. We will definitely be returning soon

I always love this place. Never fails. The service is always excellent, especially Melissa and Nancy!! Thank you guys so much.... and please open on Christmas Day for us. I know your customers would have a great time!!!

Had a great meal here today. Prawns followed by Bolognese. Absolutely beautiful food. The service was excellent too, Nancy looked after me very well. I highly recommend this restaurant and I will be returning again soon.

We were very satisfied. Good service from Gabi and her colleagues. Especially the Kids menue was perfect for our Kids. We‘ll come again 😊
