    Managed to book a table last minute on a Saturday when the restaurant was in full swing. Busy and bustling but not so noisy that we couldn't converse, and service was friendly and attentive. Ordered the cote du boeuf to share and a bottle of Malbec Reserve. Although the chips and peppercorn sauce were a little cold, the flavour made up for it. Enjoyed the sauteed mushroom side. A filling meal and felt like good value for steak in central London on a Saturday night.

    Pre theatre dinner - seated in the ‘front’ room which had a lovely relaxed ambience. It’s really fun to watch all the denizens of Soho walking past! Theatre menu was ridiculously good value at £25 per person with the quality (and quantity!) of food being excellent. Slight confusion with the wine that was handled very well by the manager. Highly recommended.

    Excellent location, ambiance and food. The staff were kind, knowledgeable and quick to attend the table. Food was perfectly cooked and great flavours throughout. Excellent drinks selection; one of the best I have seen. As a bonus, the location of the restaurant gives a great view of the sunset with Big Ben and the northern side of the Thames.

    Clos Maggiore is a brilliant, atmospheric venue. The staff are warm, friendly and professional and the food is excellent. We were made to feel very welcome and despite the two-hour dining window allocated, there was no pressure on us to leave. This was our third visit and it was amazing every time.
