Fifteen

Without doubt the worst place i've been to ever! One main dish just tasted completly burnt. Others had no taste to them what so ever. Manager very casual in the apologies by leaning against a wall and explaining that the chef may have been making the dish so often today that he got bored! Yes the manager actually justified the bad food by saying the chef might of got bored! To top off the evening I even had to catch a glipse of the state of the kitchen... I won't go into to much detail, all you need to know, it was bad!!! The only good thing about this place was the waiter. Even he looked embarrassed by the standards of everything else.

Wow, went yesterday in a party of 9. Without doubt the worst dining experience I have ever had the misfortune to experience. DO NOT GO!

Contrary to the comments from other reviewers, we enjoyed an excellent lunch in the restaurant downstairs. The service was the best we have had anywhere. It was meant to be a special occasion and did not disappoint. Good luck to the enterprise!

And they did it again!

There were the same disappointments as mentioned from AussieTraveller.
Service: unfriendly and unprofessional. Plates were given to the opposite site of the table, and taken away only after we asked for that – twice! Meal were absolutely not worth the money and definitely not worth the time to get there.
Again: as they do take even more money as other restaurants, I get even more critical. But in this case this was not necessary. Expecting “Pub foot” only would have left us with disappointment.

What worries me is that they had already feedback half a year ago and nothing changed. I will not find out if they might change it in the future as I will never visit this restaurant again.

We arrived early, excited to have a cocktail before dinner. We were directed to some seats, we had to slump our winter coats onto the table, as we were told by the maitre d' that as we were dinning downstairs he couldn't take our coats! 20mins passed & no one had come to take an order for drinks, I had to go & ask someone to come over. We were then seated at our table & the waitress came over & asked if we were "ready to order our meals?" We hadn't even ordered wine yet! The waitress took only 2 drink orders from a table of 6 & then began walking off. A member of our party asked the waitress "where the scallops were from?" To which she replied "Scotland..I think.? I don't really know". She didn't even offer to go and find out, the service was absolutly appalling! The entree's were ok, the mains awful! The artichoke purée with the scallops was so salty, it completely over powered everything else on the plate! The fish stew was also too salty, advice to the chef's, learn to season food correctly before charging outrageous prices! The Lamb was served with spinach, 4 leaves! It was just a bowl of shredded lamb, hard to stomach even by a carnivore! I though Jamie was always trying to get us to eat healthier but to serve our dishes without vegetables was disgraceful. If Jamie had himself been given the service & food we had he would be embarrassed, and he should be. We expressed our disappointment in the meals to the waiter & were met with a rude response. Regarding the lack of vegetables with our meals the answer we got was "here is the menu, what you see is what you get, there is no secrets" and "upstairs is where they serve side dishes & this should have been explain when we booked" . We were then handed the bill without asking for it, they clearly wanted us to leave. The bill came to over £400! £50 of which was a 'discretionary service charge'. We left feeling incredibly disappointed & with no incentive to EVER return.

Seconded. Fully behind the concept but for 60 quid a head (for the "tasting" menu, which is nothing of the sort, but simply a fixed menu) the food needs to be impeccable, not sub-par gastro-pub rubbish. And it's looking really dated, something you could overlook if the food was good enough to prevent you staring at the walls.

Fifteen is the worst restaurant ever, ridiculously overpriced for poor quality food and uninspiring service
