Lovely location, great views and good food! The staff were good and attentive. Food was well presented and of great quality. The main selling point of this restaurant is the location overlooking the Thames and if you manage to get a sunset booking its quite romantic! The decor is fantastic and of its era. A huge selection of wines on offer so there's something for everyone. Clientele ranged from families to small groups of friends to dates, very accommodating atmosphere!
What a great experience! I’ve been meaning to come here for a long time now and it did not disappoint. Even choosing a meal was difficult as everything on the menu sounded incredible. Went with pumpkin soup, the duck and the steak in the end and mouthwatering is an understatement. To icing on the cake, the service was top notch and the ambience was perfect. I look forward to trying more of the menu- would highly recommend!
Incredible dinner at Skylon from start to finish. They accommodated our late booking we were looking for a relaxed setting with views and great food and our expectations were exceeded by miles! The food was to die for (they were out of oysters but the other starter options were gorgeous). We got the burger which was textbook perfect - delicious and the duck that was outstanding. Gorgeous and good sized portions. They knew about our special occasions and they brought our desserts out with candles! Service was perfect and our experience was made even better by Mihela an absolute star. We'll be back!
I wasn't overly impressed with Skylon. Been wanting to go for a long time and finally managed a visit. Staff polite but not very passionate/engaging. Interior very uninspiring. Two tables next to us had been cleared but not cleaned or reset, didn't help improve the lacking ambience. Food was well cooked but the set menu was uninspiring. Single grilled chicken breast with some truffle mash tasted nice but nothing special. £205 for arrival cocktails, three courses and a bottle of wine for 3. Hmmm don't think I'll rush back.
My friend and I went to Skylon for after dinner drinks on a Saturday evening. We did not have a reservation and it was very full but the kind front of house staff found a place at the bar for us and said a couple were just about to leave so we could have their table as soon as they left. Skylon had a great, buzzing atmosphere and it was very busy. The service was good but the drinks menu looked quite tattered. We would have liked window seats to have the great views of the river but they were all reserved. The drinks were expensive but that was to be expected. We were sat near the exit of the kitchen and viewed a whole array of wonderful looking food. We will be back to savour some of the food and get those window seats.
