Cons:

  • "Oysters were also not good. No brininess at all. Like they were old."
  • "The avocado in the salmon tartare was far from ripe; inedible."

  • "The fish was a real disappointment... not enough for the price tag."
  • "Every dish had a sauce or accompaniment that covered up the taste of the fish."
  • "The fish was a real disappointment. It was barely enough for two, let alone three people. It was flavorless, needed lots of lemon and sauce just to have some taste."

Service

Pros:

  • "Every single member of staff was so welcoming and friendly."

  • "The service was exceptional."

Cons:

  • "He didn’t punch out our order and he left us sit for over an hour waiting for our food."
  • "When the waiter came we said the fish was too overcooked - he didn’t comment and just looked at us as if we shouldn’t be saying that."
  • "Service was also luke warm. We asked the maitre d if there were any table seat available and she said she'd get back to us but never did."
  • "Horrible dining experience and terrible service. Never in my life have I been treated so poorly by the waiting staff."
  • "The service was very very slow and it took what felt like an ice age to order our food!"
  • "Service in general left much to be desired."

Ambiance and Decor

Pros:

  • "The decor is a very clever mix of traditional with modern art and very luxurious."
  • "A beautiful high end fish restaurant in the fashionable Mayfair district."
  • "The atmosphere at Scott's is always warm and cozy, making it a perfect spot for a relaxed meal."
  • "The layout of the restaurant is beautifully designed with a central bar and the attention to fine detail you would expect of a restaurant of this calibre."
  • "A place of pure sophistication, old school class and elegance."
  • "Decor very grand and elegant."
  • "The restaurant boasts an elegant and lively atmosphere, setting the stage for a memorable dining experience."

Cons:

  • "Only thing that bothered me was that the tables are way too close to each other so I felt like I was being watched while eating."
  • "The smell of the place inside is fishy.. Which was turruble...... Ventilation should work well."
  • "The noisy overcrowded space is no longer pleasurable for a meal."
  • "The restaurant is very very loud, chaotic, and overcrowded, the atmosphere left me wanting to escape."
  • "Stuffy and slightly pretentious. A calm, neutral decor and atmosphere."
  • "The atmosphere was dull, sad. No waiters or waitresses or barman was wearing a Mask, they all look stress and do not want to be there."
  • "The tables did not get cleaned at all after our foods being taken away."

Value for Money

Pros:

  • "Quality of the food on offer is always superb and if you are sensible with your alcohol it doesn’t have to be mega expensive."
  • "While it is expensive, it's not as eye-watering as others in the area, and I feel the price is suitable for the experience."
  • "Average dining for two will cost 200-400 pounds, which given the quality of service and food is great value."
  • "And as for Mayfair, value for money is unbeatable."
  • "Great attention to detail, great service, great wine list and amazing food."
  • "Food was wonderful, perfectly cooked, and the portion size was amazing!"
  • "Scott's offers a wide variety of fresh and delicious seafood dishes that are sure to satisfy any seafood lover."

Cons:

  • "One of the thing's that I would expect to see is a nice tablecloth and not bits of paper in it's place as you are a top London restaurant and we as customers are paying you a lot of money to have a great experience that sadly wasn't met."
  • "For the money (£603 for 3 people) you can get better elsewhere."
  • "The food was good, but not really worth the price."
  • "Overpriced food."
  • "I also found the drinks prices extortionate. Cheapest glass of wine over £20, cocktails £19+."
  • "Charging us £100 for canceling a lunch booking is a joke."
  • "Sadly, Scott’s charges top prices but does not deliver on service and food."
