The best restaurants serving Seafood food in Frognal and Fitzjohns Camden London

We've dined at Cinder Belsize Park several times in the past and have enjoyed lovely, memorable meals with friends. This time, excitedly, we went to celebrate a significant occasion with our family and walked away horribly disappointed. There was no welcome greeting as we walked in, service was slow and we had to continue to ask for water, to place a drinks order, etc; we ordered some cocktails to start and the waitstaff joked to their colleague, in clear earshot, 'I have no idea how to make those', whereupon we were served G&Ts which felt like they'd been made with room-temp tonic; food was placed on the table with very little interaction, the service felt disengaged and unfriendly. Meanwhile, Deliveroo deliveries continued to be boxed up and dispatched in the table in front of us, and a chap unloaded storage box after storage box of takeaway containers into the restaurant. Either focus on your restaurant customers and make them feel like they're valued, or by all means go the Deliveroo offering but you cannot charge restaurant prices for a casual takeaway experience. Cinder was neither fine dining nor cheap and cheerful. The food itself was tasty but unremarkable, given the ambience of the place and one plate - the chicken thighs, were two of the smallest thigh pieces we'd ever seen, for an insulting £22. We spent £150 on our meal (2 drinks, no dessert) and were out of the restaurant in 50 mins, which hurt, especially as this was meant to be a significant celebration. The ambience of the place felt more like a takeaway grill. Wish we'd gone anywhere else that night; would've gotten more enjoyment (and value) from a takeaway grill. Will not ever be returning, sadly.
