The Waterway offered fantastic food, really good service, and even better management. I really recommend their steaks as it really was one of the best I had. The location was very welcoming, clean and elegant. On top of all of the above, what impressed me the most it was how management was able to handle an uncomfortable situation: During our lunch a mishap happened, and one of our personal items was damaged. Nonetheless, with extreme professionalism, the general manager Antonio, put effort in trying to remedy the situation, and proposed a satisfactory solution. I really recommend this place for its food, location and most importantly to the attention they give to its clients. An attention that I have never found anywhere else.

I had to wait between 15 and 20 minutes before I could order, even though I was ready. The service afterwards was quick. The meat was quality. I would have liked to have more salad. I refused the 12.5% ​​for the service. Normally it's at the client's discretion, but the boss came to ask me why. I explained to him that I waited too long to order. He said OK very quickly and very cordially, but his approach was intimidating.

The Sunday roast was a 5/10. Not worth £28. If they can fix that this place could be great. It's such a nice atmosphere.

Food didn’t live up to the promises made by the photos. Food was served tepid! Husbands steak was poor quality. Staff were helpful and apologetic. Quality from the kitchen very lacking!

It was a Sunday. They had a big party so they delayed taking our order so as not to have back up delays in the kitchen. There was no communication between the waiters. We were getting two waiters talking to us and any order given to one was not noted by the second waiter. When I asked about my dish, the waiter was vague in his reply and couldn't answer my question. The food was decent. The service and attention to the diners needs structure. They were obviously struggling to cope with the big party they were dealing with at a cost to the regular clientele.

I often visit the Waterway with my family for drinks and snacks. The staff always gives a very warm welcome and caters for all our needs other than the host Antoniou and George who are always second to none, I would also like to mention Eddie and James who are always whizzing around they always have time to ensure that our visit is always enjoyable not forgetting my four legged son who is always presented with a drink without asking. Great job guys and thank you for your amazing service.

Lovely place along the river. Had high hopes for this place but left disappointed. Service was decent and friendly, but not very knowledgeable. At least the waiter admitted he had no clue about wine, I'll give him that. But he didn't offer to get help from a sommelier. Neither did we get water. We had cod and tuna. The cod said pan fried in the menu. It clearly wasn't. It looked baked. It looked very sad. The tuna was clearly just seared (raw inside as it should) but on a grill pan so not seared all over which resulted in lack of taste for me (and the aesthetics of it is again sad). This type of location and venue should serve food and have service at a higher level. Not expensive but even at the price point it should be better as well. If I am nearby again I would go for drinks or just fries, looks like a great place in the summer.

Massive thank you to our server José, gave absolutely fantastic service to myself, my partner and my baby, a lovely venue and experience. Buttermilk chicken burger, Korean wings were sticky and delicious and chocolate brownie just melted in the mouth. Food was delicious, the canal view was nice and the restaurant itself was lovely. We went for the lunch menu of 3 courses and a drink for around £27 each and ordered extras.

We ate here for our anniversary and it was exceptional. We had the truffle fries which were amazing. The tuna and the chicken were some of the best we have ever had. My only regret is that we didn’t save any room for dessert as I had my eye on a couple of options. The service was very attentive and the atmosphere was lovely right by the fireplace. They had a large party inside but were very accommodating when we asked to sit elsewhere. We will definitely go back.

Great dinner with colleagues. Service very attentive. Menu was removed after ordering appetisers and then brought back for ordering mains “to allow more space to eat” and to create a relaxed environment in which you do not need to order everything upfront. I really enjoyed the fries with truffle, the pork belly bites (very unique and tasty) and my main which was a seared tuna. I asked for a very light cook and I like to eat it almost like a sashimi and it turned out to be a fantastic choice. The waiter also suggested to have the sauce it comes with on a side so I could decide how much i wanted to taste the tuna flavour which for me was a very good quality, tender, moist and flavourful. Good job! Thanks

I have been wanting to come here for a while after passing it often on my way home from work. The location by the canal is lovely, surrounded by greenery. Unfortunately, the food fell short of expectations. The dishes arrived quickly, which made them feel less than freshly prepared. The pork chop was lukewarm, the gnocchi with pesto didn’t taste homemade, and the sourdough turned out to be toast rather than actual sourdough bread. I would come back for a drink, but not food.

A great location, especially on the Terrace on a hot summer's evening, it gave us the feel of being on a European holiday. However the food was nothing remarkable for the price and the service was very very slow - we spent a lot of time during what should have been a relaxed family meal and rare time together chasing missed items and looking to catch the eye of passing waiting staff which did spoil the meal atmosphere.

However, the indoor seating is also cozy and inviting. The price is fair, and the food and desserts are all freshly prepared on-site. I highly recommend the prawns and the steak. The beautiful and stylish ambiance, combined with excellent cuisine and friendly service, ensures a delightful evening. Five stars!

DON’T WASTE YOUR TIME! The food was awful; the burrata was tough, the fried ravioli that were supposed to be truffle were dry and tasteless, the lamb was overcooked and seemed to be reheated, the rice and chicken salad had no dressing or seasoning and didn’t come with olive oil or vinegar until we asked, the chips were cold as was the crème brûlée. We asked for water twice and while the glasses arrived the water didn’t. When we shared our feedback with the managers (one woman and an older gentleman) they made excuses, he actually told us that “water doesn’t come to the table automatically like it does in the US”. Yes we are Americans but we have lived around the corner for 12 years. We will never be back which is a shame because the location is amazing and we have shared this review far and wide.

Disappointed after really looking forward to a meal here. Menu has changed ( granted it does state that on the website) but the choice is poor imo. I ordered pork chop, it was just about cooked and the roasted peppers had the texture of a slug as there was nothing roasted about them. Then comes the service charge no one is aware of and doesn’t state anywhere. How can you justify a service charge when you charge VAT on top? Pork, chicken, kids fish goujons,( which my son said had the texture of a brick) large wine, madri and kids soft drink …..£120 I’ll give this place a miss in future.

The food was good but the service left a lot to be desired. Took a long time to come and take our orders. Stood at the till for ages. I have a blue light card and showed the man at the till he said I needed to have my ID badge with me which I did not know about and my friend who’s had her blue card for ages has never been asked for her ID before. I explained was new and I could show my bank card which has same name as on blue light card but they said no had to be my badge. Would have been nice to know this before as it’s not stated anywhere. Food was ready I could see it but only one person serving food and some other members of staff walking round. It was very busy but still they could have had more people helping with serving so that food got out quicker and not left sat on the serving shelf for ages. Didn’t get served together so I had to eat my food in front of my friends and their children on my own while they waited for their food. This was even though we ordered at the same time. My friends made me eat it or would have gone cold as I wanted to wait. Very busy and noisy. I’m use to hearing the usual nandos Spanish music but couldn’t even hear it as people where so loud.
