Hawksmoor - Seven Dials

I wanted to love this place. I picked it as a joint birthday and anniversary dinner because of all I’ve heard. Sadly, everything was overpriced (less important) and underwhelming (more important). The restaurant was crowded, noisy, and the decor unimpressive. I was pushed into ordering bread and a side salad (which I didn’t touch after the first bite - avoid the Caesar). The drinks were mediocre. We left without even looking at a dessert menu, and instead went elsewhere for better drinks and better dessert. What a shame. This may have been a great place in the past, or perhaps the other locations are better, but no matter, we won’t be returning and would not recommend to anyone.

It was amazing. Super helpful staff. Enjoyed it a lot.

Always amazing at Hawksmoor Seven Dials. Service & food is excellent.

Amazing service and food as always! Still the best steak in London 🫶🏻

The food was absolutely delicious - Sunday Roast with all the trimmings was the highlight!

The food was lovely and the service was good throughout.

Good value for money, personally my steak was dry, having been given rave reviews it was a little disappointing but overall enjoyed the experience ! Would I go again…. Maybe

Giulia our server was SO lovely, had fillet and sirloin with sauces and sides - all fabulous. Drinks amazing - Prosecco, recommended stellenbosch wine, Hawksmoor lager and espresso martinis all super. Desserts a little disappointing - sticky toffee sundae a bit sweet and strawberry pavlova a bit modern

We’ve been a fairly regular Hawksmoor customer - both in Covent Garden and Air St. Haven’t been for 6 months and although it was a good visit yesterday it didn’t live up to previous experiences. The food was good and the service was good but it all felt a bit rushed. We were in and out in 75 minutes, weren’t offered a 2nd drink and all in all it felt like so many other places. The special feel of our previous Hawksmoor visits seemed to be missing. After previous visits we always felt it was a great experience and have always recommended to friends and family. This time I’m afraid it was OK/Good but nothing special.

It was a surprise birthday meal for Nicola. Once again, our favourite Hawksmoor excelled again! At my request, an espresso martini was given to Nicola instead of a birthday cake due to food tolerances. The staff were very patient and courteous to us all as we all are deaf. Our friend from the North was amazed! Once again, many thanks Hawksmoor!

Everything was great except the huge noise, the food was amazing. Many thanks

Great food, surroundings and atmosphere. We also had excellent service from Nuria

Great food and service. Very nice setting. Overall a top notch experience

Excellent pre-theatre menu. Enjoyed every mouthful. Attentive well trained team and space between the tables. Thank you.

Ordered rump steaks that turned out to be difficult to cut and very chewy to eat. been many times thought we would try a different cut this time, never again.

The medium Chateaubriand is overcooked...Some of it is burnt. Garlic Mushroom is good.

Took my wife to Hawksmoor for our wedding anniversary after raving about it for years. Thankfully her steak was good but mine was really poor. Fillet medium rare that had to be knifed through really tough. Waitress was amazing and so apologetic but not her fault and she made the best of what was a poor piece of steak.

fulfilled all expectations, waitress was amazing, food was great, no delays or waits, empty glasses filled, great night

Everything was perfect! Food, drinks, service 10/10 and will definitely be back!

Wonderful Stay, best food, my husband got a candle bc it was his birthday! It‘s a bit expensive but worth every penny.

We were expecting a slightly different atmosphere. It felt as a standard style restaurant. The steak was tasty but again nothing out of extraordinary?

Excellent quality and service. The best rump I have ever eaten

Cocktails were superb, the fillet was one of the 5 best I have had in my life. Would strongly recommend to anyone, excellent experience.

Last time our Chateaubriand steak was extremely salty. This was disappointing as usually the food here is wonderful. We didn't complain as it was quite a wait for the steak and we were hungry, so we didn't want to wait for a new one to be cooked.

Lovely food , great service, would definitely visit again, thanks

Great food great atmosphere great service will be back next time I’m In London

Great meal and atmosphere and service will definitely go again

The porterhouse steak as good as it always has been.

Friendly and welcoming, attentive to needs from arrival, during the meal and on leaving.

Fantastic birthday celebrations with my family. Waiter Paul was bubbly, patient, and attentive. The team smoothly navigated dietary requirements and the food was perfectly cooked. Absolutely delicious! I cannot recommend Hawksmoor Covent Garden enough for a special occasion.

Exceptional staff Welcoming, attentive and considerate from start to finish Unbelievable food that exceeded expectations that was completely worth the effort to go out for

If you like steak, you can’t go wrong with the Hawksmoor. Throw in excellent service and a lively atmosphere and you have a winning formula. Very pricey but you do pay for what you get. Highly recommend.

Food was amazing although we were charged for additional drinks that were not ours

The food was a little dry. Didn't like it so much. The atmosphere was very nice.

All the staff are very friendly and the atmosphere is great. We asked for something to celebrate my friend's wedding and they kindly provided us with fancy desserts!

Perfect dinner with nice meat choices. Tasty dessert too. We would definitely go back

Amazing food and amazing service! Even with a baby :)

I was a bit disappointed. The service was lovely but my Ribeye was fatty and my wife's sirloin was underwhelming. I want a steak that I pay over £40 to be tasty and well seasoned and flavoursome Sadly missed all three of these. Desserts were lovely though and service was warm and friendly

Steak was served cold - better food at the local beefeater - avoid

Splendid visit, but we did find the noise levels very high...and there is little you can do about that!

Told it was an hour wait at the Air Street location after walking in; checked online and tables were available at Seven Dials so made the journey. As usual express menu was great value for money, steak was just right and pavlova was lovely

Great to visit, pleasant experience. We will try the location in Chicago soon!

visited for my sons 21st birthday. I mentioned this and they gave him a delicious sticky toffee pudding with a candle on it much to his embarrassment!

Food was good and also the service. Front of the house experience was below average. They couldn't found our reservation. They told us to wait 10-15 minutes at the bar to try find us a table. That's not acceptable at all. I don't think I will visit again this location

Very much enjoyed the luncheon . We will be back soon

Lovely venue, convenient for Covent Garden and theatres. Staff very friendly and efficient. Would highly recommend

Overall, great restaurant and highly recommended. Food was absolutely delicious, also a long wine list where you can also find very good, affordable wines. Staff was very kind too. The interior was quite chic, good distance between the tables, only small complaint was the noise level.

Lovely restaurant good service good staff not rushed vey comfortable

It was a beautiful building with a lot of happy servers and wonderful food. However, it was so loud I could not have a conversation with my husband.

Nice ambiance, amazing food. Service was a bit off, though - clearing of dishes while we are still eating, 4 different servers, drinks arriving separately rather than together. 12.5% service charge is too much (regardless of level of service) so I requested that this was removed from the bill.
