Waterloo Bar and Kitchen

I have been a regular at Bar and Kitchen for a few years now and I just keep wanting to go back. The menu is great balanced, lots of fish, and well priced. Each time I go there are four or five dishes, from each course, I want to eat.

The food is always excellent, the halibut is particularly good and so is the duck as well as steak, fishcakes, the lamb sea bass and so no.

Service is great and the manageress seems to know everyone.

The dishes are reasonably priced and better value than a lot in Waterloo.

Definitely my favourite restaurant in the area.

I have eaten at Waterloo Bar and Kitchen many times and have always had a wonderful experience. The food is consistently delicious, the service flawless and the atmosphere is always spot on - a great place for a dinner a deux or to meet up with a group. I'd recommend to anyone who wants a mid-priced, reliable and friendly eatery close to the centre of town, a rare thing in my experience.

If your idea of a good meal out is having stand-offish staff and food that, for the price, does not quite meet the mark in terms of taste and size (one of our main courses consisted of three small pieces of under-grilled hallumi, some limp lettuce and a single tomato) then this is the place for you.

I made my first visit on Wednesday 3 March 2010. The place was full and lively, without being too noisy.

The service was exemplary; very attentive without being annoying, and personable without being cheeky.

The food was excellent.

Dinner for 3 with a bottle of wine came to around £80.

really nice food, nothing flashy but our food (i had duck my girlfriend had lamb) was really well cooked and very tasty. We went at about 9 on a saturday night and there were only 2 other couples in the place which we found strange as we both left very satisfied and will definitely go back again....

This place is less bar and more restaurant, I am not sure I would feel comfortable just coming in for a beer, and the beer selection is fairly poor, not even one real ale.

I enjoyed my steak and wine but something about the environment was not relaxing and welcoming.

I've been here 3 times and every time have had a great meal. Its got a nice atmosphere - bustly but not too hectic. Staff are friendly and its good value for money. They do a good job of fitting you in if you haventt booked. Popular pre-theatre place so clers out a bit later on. Great fish selection and one of the few places that serves John Dory!

I have been to this Restaurant a few times and it has a simply perfect private function room. Absolutely ideal for Birthday Parties. I feel so lucky to have found a Restaurant next to Waterloo Station that has a great Private Room. david was incredibly helpful with our booking and mario and all the staff were so friendly and professional. Love a restaurant which give groups a proper menu selection and we were treated better than any other restaurant that ive been to as a group

Can't believe that my company selected this place for our Christmas lunch, it is just too low-key. The food is not bad, but just not the right place for big celebrations.
