Not up to standards of the past. My wife's crab starter was too salty to taste the crab but the staff went and got another one which was fine. Her risotto was tasty but overcooked. Her chocolate and praline pud still had lumps of ice in the centre. However my meal was good. It was a nice place to catch up with friends but, if we'd been there by ourselves, I would have asked the 13.5% service to be reduced to 12.5% as I never pay more than this.

I used to think of this restaurant as luxurious. Unfortunately on this occasion the service was poor to the point of rudeness, and my 11 year old daughter found glass in her desert. I will not be going to this restaurant again, and I was embarrassed of suggesting this restaurant to friends.

A beautiful eating space, lit up by the spectacular architectural gem it takes its name from, food is excellently presented and prepared, served up by a perfectly attentive staff. A London classic still delivering.

We’ll be back! Large groups are always tricky so great to have a round table. The majority of the party were French and they loved their meal. Thank you to the whole team.

It’s not what it used to be. Service was slow, the food was luke warm and it really felt like the kitchen wasn’t bothered. Won’t be returning which is sad as it once was a London staple.
Le Pont de la TourResponded on November 16, 2024
Dear Andi, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are genuinely sorry to hear about your recent experience. It is disappointing to know that we did not meet your expectations this time, especially since you have had a positive experience with us in the past. We take your comments about the service and food quality very seriously, and will be looking into what went wrong to ensure this doesn’t happen again. We hope you will give us another chance in the future! Kind regards, Le Pont de la Tour
