Square Meal review of The Ebury: ? Write your review

I have recently moved nearby SW1and was keen to seek out the best local restaurants especially brasserie type places. Upon arrival I found the place to be buzzing with chitter chatter and diners who seemed to be enjoying themselves, so the initial impression was good.
The staff were pleasant. The service was also pretty good, apart from my second glass of wine ordered didn't turn up and it had been left on the bar and was retrieved by a second waiter.
However the ''famed food'' in my opinion was not up to scratch in comparison to many other restaurants we have visited. I was very dissapointed I ordered fish and chips with mushy peas. When it arrived the actual fish was really thin and covered in a tempura type batter which was soft and soggy inside. I removed all the batter and there was not much left of the measly slice of fish, the chips were nothing special and the mushy peas seeemed to be the same as stuff out of a tin. (this was £14.50) Nobody asked me if there was anything wrong with the batter. On the way we passed (nearby) a fish and chip shop where probably a better example would have cost something nearer to a fiver.
Overall a dissapointing visit and we won't be repeating it. (we did not get any discounts and did not ask for any)
