The Western Club Restaurant

When it was revealed to me that I would be dining here on Monday evening, I was rather excited.

Excellent service and the food was really good. The market menu was exceptionally priced. This restaurant was new to us but will definitely return.

What a swanky looking place! This was the first thing that hit me as i walked in was that the decor, lighting and arrangement of the area just said Visualizza piatti

Despite having been highly recommended, the standard and choice of food was disappointing, service poor and there was no atmosphere. Unfortunately, a disappointing experience.

This booking was to celebrate my husband's 61st birthday but no attempt was made to recognise this. I have eaten in the Western Club several times and have bought vouchers for a few family members as gifts but after this most recent visit I will not return.

We booked the table for 4pm but were told on arrival that only the a la carte menu was available as the 2 courses for £20 was only till 3pm on a sat. This is not the information that is on the website. Food was lovely but we weren't expecting our bill to be over £100 Visualizza piatti

As always delicious food and great service in beautiful surroundings. Our lunch was wonderful (although some might think £95 for a lunch for two is rather expensive). I chose the market fish of the day plaice. It was cooked to perfection. One minor issue: I think the mains should include sides whereas they have to be ordered and are charged separately.

Could not fault the food. In general the place did not exude much charm. The waiting staff were very attentive. You have to ring the doorbell to enter and concierge staff ‘welcomes’ you..the welcome was most definitely cold and uninviting, perhaps being a family this was not the clientele they expect on a Saturday evening, my presumption. We were not asked for coats until we were seated and perhaps by standing at table to remove coat, staff were prompted into action. All the glitz did not impress me.

Have always enjoyed Western Club but disappointed on this occasion and would not therefore recommend it any longer. Food which is normally exceptional was very mediocre. Only one kind of bread in the bread basket and one small slice per person. On requesting more bread our server brought the basket with exactly five small slices of the same bread, one per person. Portions of main meal seemed smaller than usual. All in all the impression given was cutting back on food although servers were still very pleasant. Restaurant was much less busy than usual Visualizza piatti
