  “We like Smiths of Smithfield. The food, wine and service in the restaurant are very good. OK it is a bit pricey but you get what you pay for. Great place to celebrate an event. The staff were very nice and helpful. We will be making a return visit”

  “This place is very popular but I found it to be mediocre in terms of the quantity and quality of the food for the money they charge. Worth dining once but there are plenty of other options in the neighborhood that are much more reasonably priced and offer better food.”

  “I’m writing this review with mixed feelings for a different reasons, The first is that years ago I used to come here and love the meat and this is why I’ve brought a customer to this restaurant again and one main element was a miss The service was spectacular especially when it came to the sommelier, I’m a bit picky about my wines and she was spot on - I’ll come back just for her I’ll group the starters and the sides and give them a high score, they were special, well prepared, seasoned perfectly and very pleasing Where the restaurant fell short is on its main ingredient, the steak, we took one of the sharing dishes and for a medium rare meat it was very chewy- I make my own meat and I can tell you that this was not good - not only this, the cut we got had too much fact on it. In hindsight, I should have returned it and if we weren’t already well into our drinks I may have done that The cocktails were quite good especially the spicy cocktail with Tabasco which definitely carried a punch but we loved it So, there are plenty of reasons to come back and one of them is to remember again how a properly cooked steak can be prepared by them”

  “We arrived without reservation on a busy Thursday evening, around 7:30pm. We dined on the fourth floor and whilst the had a number of large corporate tables, they were able to squeeze us in. There is a sommelier on hand, walking the floor to help with any wine selections. We chose their recommendations and had a mixture of seafood and meat dishes. The starters were delicate and full of complex flavours. For mains, side dish’s are needed. The cabbage and spinach were delicious, with the triple cooked chips being light and fluffy.”

  “Exceptional dinner at Smith's a few months ago. The food was out of this world both in presentation and flavour! We were so well looked after by the staff and I would be back again in a heartbeat. The Grill is the perfect location for a special dinner. I'll be back as soon as I'm next in London.”

  “I was very satisfied with the restaurant and strongly recommend it! For a starter, I had a Smoked salmon, devon crab, fennel, orange, brown crab mayo, salmon roe which was delicious! I never tried the combination of orange and salmon before, it was a very successful combination. For main dish, I had 9oz Dairy Cow sirloin, watercress, pickled shallots, ox cheek gravy, truffle chips. Very tasty and very generous portion! For dessert, I had Dark chocolate & cherry gâteaux, sour cherry ice cream, which was great too! The atmosphere was very cozy with low to moderate noise and the service was excellent!”

  “WEEKEND BRUNCH 🥞 📍 @thisissmiths, Farringdon ⭐️ 5/5 💸 ££ If you’re hunting for a proper London #brunch (generous portions, bold flavours, and that cool industrial vibe) Smiths of Smithfield absolutely delivers. Their weekend brunch menu is stacked, and we went straight for the heavy hitters 👀 ✨ 7oz Dry-Aged Scotch Rump #Steak Served with black beans, a perfect fried egg, crispy hash browns and chimichurri… honestly unreal. The steak was tender, flavour-packed, and that chimichurri brought everything to life. ✨ Smashed #Avocado Toast Poached eggs, chilli, sourdough: a classic, but done properly. I added smoked salmon (obviously), and it took it to a whole new level. Creamy, fresh, spicy... perfection. ✨ Homemade #Granola Because what is brunch without granola? Crunchy, honeyed, and dreamy with yoghurt. A sweet little finish after all the savoury goodness. Smiths really nails that “elevated but still comforting” brunch energy. Big portions, great produce, cozy vibe, definitely going on my brunch rotation ❤️”

  “Had a lovely meal at Smiths of Smithfield. Went with a group of four and we ordered a decent amount of dishes: steak tartare, smoked salmon, scallops, oysters, beef cheek mash, the T-bone steak, and the Chateaubriand. Everything was delicious. Out of the starters my favorite was the beef tartare. Both of the steaks were great but I leaned more towards the T-bone. Lastly, the beef cheek mash was amazing. I highly recommend you order it.”

  “Smiths of Smithfield had good food, but poor service and a busy atmosphere. Upon arrival, we were seated and waited 15+ minutes for a server to come to us to order drinks or food. When we were first approached, we asked for a specific bottle of wine and were told we could not order the bottle through the waitress but had to wait for the sommelier (despite knowing what we wanted). We waited another 5-10 minutes until she came and we were able to order. Then a few more minutes for the server to come take our order. We were seated at least 20 minutes total before we were helped with anything. The starters were good - the steak tartare, oysters, and scallops were all tasty.We ordered the t-bone and chateaubriand both medium rare, but I much preferred the t-bone, though it was cut with so much meat left on the bone. The ox cheek mash was the highlight of the meal. Overall, the service was unfortunately what left me wanting more. Between the long waits & asking the waitress for more water twice (and never receiving it), we were disappointed. The place was very noisy, which I am not accustomed to for a “steakhouse”. At the end, after ordering over 600 pounds worth of food, we went to order dessert and they were out of what we wanted. When we asked to modify the ice cream flavor on a second dessert, the waitress said it was just “too busy to ask the servers to change something”. After paying so much, I would really have appreciated simply changing out an ice cream flavor, but that wasn’t provided.”
