Tom's Kitchen (Somerset House, Strand, London, WC2R 1LA)

Staff were attentive, friendly and polite, but the food overall was disappointing.

I had pork belly, which was tasty but not it was clearly re-heated from the previous day, so quite heavy to digest.

For dessert I had chocolate hot pot, which was very dry and nowhere near what it's supposed to look like and taste.

Ambience is minimalist to the point that it feels like eating in a school canteen

Pix (16 Bateman Street, London, W1D 3AQ)

I didn't know Pix and found it by chance while looking for somewhere to eat quickly before theatre.

What a pleasant discovery! Food and service were very good: potted shrimps, olives stuffed with ricotta cheese were my favourite. Excellent value for money in an area where it's alwasy difficult to find good places to eat.

I'll be going again

The Orange (37-39 Pimlico Road, London, London, SW1W 8NE)

Great staff, attentive and friendly!

One of our waiters answered all our questions, and went out of his way to find information such as where the meat was source from, despite the place being very busy.

Food was absolutely superb!

I had wild boar, which is really unusual to find in England, and it was cooked to perfection and tasted great. Adding chorizo was nice twist from traditional recipes.

I'm definitely going to visit The Orange again

Mishkin's (25 Catherine Street, London, London, WC2B 5JS)

For the first I was disappointed by a Square Meal suggestion!

Pastrami didn't taste of anything and was completely overpowered by the taste of sauerkraut and cheese.

The service was poor, my side order was delivered a long time after I actually finished my main.

Will never go there again!
