The best restaurants in St Katharine's and Wapping Tower Hamlets London

No me sorprendió ninguna crítica: excelentes albóndigas y un delicioso pollo frito coreano. Barato. No es un menú extenso pero muy agradable.

Tipped to be one of the most outstanding restaurants in 2025. I dined at Smiths for a family event (16 of us) . Without doubt the experience from the moment we entered the front door, until the moment we stepped outside to leave was incredible. I live in Dubai so have been fortunate to experience outstanding culinary venues. Smiths jettisoned into my top 3 restaurants in the world. The views are amazing with a restaurant full of light, laughter and energy on a sunny Sunday. The hospitality team were on point , friendly and super efficient without being intrusive. The food was incredible and every one of the 16 party had empty plates on every course. I’m blown away by the entire experience and cannot recommend Smiths enough. It’s not often you see the owner interacting at every opportunity to ensure all standards and connecting with his guests and team with such calmness. But his interactions absolutely showed the passion that this expert restaurateur has. Bravo Smiths - many of us will be back OFTEN!

An excellent lunch. Far exceeded expectations. Fish was excellently prepared (monkfish), and the octopus was gorgeous. The wine list is eclectic and impressive, covering wines from Japan, Macedonia, and Bulgaria. Superb.

The place itself is beautiful, with a stunning view and a super pleasant atmosphere, complemented by lovely background music. The only downside was one of the staff members at the entrance, who honestly made the experience uncomfortable. First, she told us we couldn’t place a small table outside on the terrace—even though other people had one—rather than welcoming us or helping us settle in. Then, when we moved inside, she saw us sit down and immediately told us we had to leave in 20 minutes. We explained we had a reservation, and instead of simply checking, she started questioning us until another staff member confirmed it. I genuinely don’t understand the point of her role—she didn’t welcome us, didn’t try to make us comfortable, and only interrupted us. What was she even there for?

Conoscendo il proprietario della gestione precedente sono ritornato "DA NONNA" ma, con mio dispiacere ho notato che nonostante sulla carta erano riportate "tagliatelle con funghi porcini" sono state servite con funghi champignon", le Bruschette con mozzarella di bufala e prosciutto patanegra erano con mozzarella normale e prosciutto di parma. Tutto ciò significa che il valore dei prodotti riportati sulla carta era di gran lunga superiore ai prodotti serviti. Il cameriere merita il massimo delle stelle per come si é comportato.

Impressive place and history ♥️

Really nice food and atmospheric venue. Would have liked slightly larger portions.

Personal muy grosero y atento. Al entrar nos dijeron que podíamos tomar una mesa de cancelación, pero tenía que estar fuera en una hora y media. Lo bueno estaba bien, pero nada especial - cada miembro del personal de espera era extremadamente grosero y desatenta. No recomendaría

Absolutely delicious food, top-notch service, and a truly great staff made for a fantastic experience. Highly recommend!

Very welcoming traditional 'East End' local.. Always have selection of fine real ales. A cycling threesome of well kept and well priced beers. Often including dark ale A great display with a Beefeater uniform and supporting info...

Jugamos a los dardos en el Sir Sid y luego disfrutamos de un par de pizzas. Generalmente entramos los jueves por la tarde. El equipo del bar es excelente y la comida excepcional. Tocan canciones realmente top y todo el lugar tiene un gran ambiente.

Hidden gem, a place to enjoy a drink or two, on its own or paired with the the French themed cuisine on offer. Great selection of Champagne and best place to try new smaller brands. We are so lucky to live nearby and will pop in very now and then. Quiet and relaxing ambience together with excellent service. What more can you ask for? Top tip: This is a combined bar & restaurant as well as a wine shop!

We used to visit this restaurant under it's old management. Now we discovered how good il Pirata is we will certainly be back. Huge portions, very friendly, warm service - we certainly could have stayed all day on a cold wet Sunday. Food and wine delicious and well priced.

Really lovely Bar at Wiltons and reasonably priced too. Also eco friendly with the cups that can be reused. Nice atmosphere.
