    Amazing service, Dario was very attentive. Not only to our table but his whole section. I was pleasantly surprised by the food, especially in such a busy environment. The steak sandwich was very flavoursome, well presented and a good portion. I could not fault the value for money on the Bottomless brunch and will definitely recommend this to family & friends. The only criticism I can make was the ambience, but no fault to the restaurant. It was the cup final and busy with supporters watching the game. However this only made a very small dent on our overall experience . Will definitely re- visit, we'll done to the whole team at Sound cafe 😀

We can’t wait to welcome you back for another visit soon! Best regards, Guest Services, SOUND @ The Cumberland

    Great venue. Good value. Lovely staff. Fab decor! Special mention goes to Juliana. Docked one star as the food was a little salty but otherwise great. Had the bottomless brunch and our glasses were kept full. Would visit again and be happy to go a la crate as the main menu seemed very reasonably priced for a central London venue. Recommended!
