Hawksmoor Seven Dials

I went here last night with my boyfriend, after finding it on here. AMAZING restaurant and bar. We had the best time. From the moment we were greated at the door everything was perfect. This restaurant and bar has a really nice feel to it, and was busy enough to have an atmosphere without overcrowding. The service was fantastic in the bar and at the restaurant. Food was amazing, and the best steak we have ever had. Cocktails were fantastic. An absolute treat, and totally worth every penny!! YOU MUST GO!!

The food, the service, the atmosphere...all perfect! Couldn't have asked for a better night. I was there on a first date and the waitresses who served our table were nothing short of fantastic, knowledgable about the wine and food, polite and when we couldn't decide between the two types of chips we were kindly given one of both with one of them on the house...its little touches like that that cost so little but really help to make a night. Will definitely be going back, hats off to you Hawksmoor for creating an absolute peach of a restaurant!

Amazing meal and incredible service. Have not tasted steak like that before! LOVED it all.

I took my mother for a Sunday roast yesterday and she loved it as did we all, the staff were so friendly and welcoming and the dinner was just to die for (how on earth do they do those roast potatoes???) highly highly highly recommend!

Its nice and the staff are great but Gauchos is way better. I think people like to like this place more cause its a smaller operation and new but give me the Pepsi challenge against gauchos any day and it will come up tops

I ordered the fillet steak, rare. Everything was perfect. First bite, I had to sit back and close my eyes. Amazing. Would definitely recommend. Attentive staff, very helpful and friendly. Loved every minute.

Agree with most of the points made here on the pluses and minuses of the restaurant. Agree I find steak houses much better in USA. Was expecting a melt in your mouth juicy steak for the price and hype, instead found a tender but dry piece of filet. Girlfriend ordered rump, tasty but dry as well. Agree that the service was good but lagged at times. Sometimes it took a while for our waitress to get back to us or difficult to find sometimes when we needed her for something. Perhaps understaffed because it was a weeknight, although the restaurant was packed past 7PM so they should have known how many people would be dining that night. Also found the wait time between ordering and recieving the food itself far too long. All in all nice place and good food but nothing great. I would say I enjoyed the sides we ordered (creamed spinach, beef dripping chips, and cauliflower cheese) more than the steaks themselves. Expensive (very) as well but the food proportion size is good for the prices you pay.

Our first visit to Hawksmoor on our weekend break in London. What a treat!
Starters were outstanding as were our steaks, the best I have tasted outside the USA. I rarely order steak as I am very fussy about it so this was a revelation. Expensive but worth every penny, we would definitely recommend it. The chips also deserve a mention as does the wine list, superb!

Excellent food. My husband and I ordered a chateaubriand streak between the two of us and it was the best steak we had ever eaten, it was cooked to perfection. We also had triple dipped chips which were also delicious. We went there for my husbands 40th birthday and thankfully we got a meal to remember. The staff were extremely helpful to us and very friendly.
It was an EXTREMELY expensive steak but since it was for a special occasion it was worth every penny. I would highly recommend this restaurant to any meat lover.

goood food. i love the food :)

Yeah Buddy!!!

i love the food and the girs are there

YEAH!!!

It was an amzing food and electric atmosphere.

Fantastic food and atmosphere.
I highly recommend it.

Amazing food. We had a porterhouse steak to share between the two of us; it was the best steak I have ever eated. Triple cooked chips were crispy and delicious. Staff were friendly and knowledgable. It was expensive, but worth it.

Poor in just about all respects. Expensive, poor value for money (£65 per head for 2 courses ) , tired and unimaginative decor , noisy , dark basement location. The steak was served just warm and was nothing special in terms of flavour or tenderness , the vegetables at £4 each were miniscule and not very tasty. How this restaurant has supposedly managed to get more than one star is a mystery. The irony is that for a steakhouse we found the best part of the meal was the salad and the fish one of our party had. Never commented on a restaurant before so you can tell I was not impressed by this one.

Poor.Dinner for 2 midweek. Waited 45 minutes after order taken. My steak so oversalted it was ruined and ha to be sent back; half-lobster had been frozen and tasted like cotton wool. Cost refunded, but it ruined the evening. Staff seemed enthusiastic, but under-trained and overstretched. Won't be back in a hurry

Amazing food. Lovely, friendly staff. Very highly recommended. (Triple cut chips a must!).

In London for a mini break with the wife (we're from up north). We both had the fillet steak, medium & medium rare, both were cooked to perfection. The best we've ever had, chips were really nice, would recommend the 2fried eggs! Enjoy!

The Hawksmoor Seven Dials may be a good restaurant, but when it comes to cater for a group of 10+ they got it completely wrong. We went there to celebrate a birthday party, 11 people in total, mixed group. Food and service good, but the system of having to choose a menu before going so that everyone eats the same is just useless. The waste of food was tremendous, and the steaks got cold very quickly because they were served as pure lumps of meat in trays that let the heat out very quickly. The bill was over-expensive for what we actually ate, and this is not due to lack of food, but due to lack of a proper system to cater for a large group. The all inclusive menu is a waste of food and money. If they had a normal a la carte system even for groups of more than 10 people, it would be great.

Best Sunday roast I have EVER had. Perfectly pink slab (and I mean SLAB) of tender beef, faultless roasties, a yorkshire pud with the right amount of crispness and goo, sweet roasted parsnips, al dente greens, half a roast garlic (my favourite addition to any roast), endless boats of gravy...and more! Worth every penny of the £17.50, and then some. I somehow squeezed in apple pie for afters. Front of house matched up to the quality of the food - the dining room is very cosy and our waitress was unwaveringly smiley; very attentive without being intrusive. The Pinot Noir was well matched to the roast - definitely recommend it.

What can I say...no complaints! Would like to go back every weekend (if only...)

Attended the " feast " last night , roasted bones , meat that melts in your mouth and PROPER CHIPS . . . !!! There was mention of a dessert menu . . . no need . . . not in my case ! Waitress saved me from ordering " half-a-cow " and was very good , the service was the cherry on the top . . . The location is magnificent , looks like it is a well-established Victorian club . . . MAGNIFICENT , cant wait for my return . . .

I had lunch yesterday with my family there. We all had the sunday roast and it is possibly the best roast I have ever had. The meat was to die for!! We also had starters and desserts and everything was fantastic. Really good service. Definitely going back asap!

I've had a lot of steak in my time, and to be honest I thought you couldn't really discern much difference between nice steak and great steak. That's because I'd never tried a porterhouse steak at Hawksmoor. It was so good I think it's what tastebuds were invented for.

Also, anywhere that writes a cocktail menu with such flourish and dedication deserves a hearty 'cheers' from me!

Mcdonalds is better

The Bar was ok,service was very good,Although front house staff very snobby,Went in with girlfriend no problem,try to get in with two male friends and they turn you away instinctively claiming bar is full,will never go back as the bar was empty.

Went for a Sunday Lunch with family, superb service. While enjoying our conversation failed to notice that we were late in being served, important as we had a show to catch. One steak not cooked as requested but soon remedied. Food and wine sublime, the mushroom side dish was beautiful to taste. To crown our visit the manager insisted that because of the inconvenience, our drinks and meal meal should be on the house. What excellence! 5*+

Just been for lunch.
Definately recommend
The steaks are massive though! It seems as if 400g is the norm!
Try the Cote de Rhone Red. (about £30 a bottle) 2006 was an exceptional year for that region and this is reflected in the wine - a gem in a crowded wine list around this price bracket
