what the critics say

Guardian

Jay Rayner

Sunday, April 26, 2009 - My assumption is that this restaurant has been in the works for 18 months, and the investment was so far advanced when the economic weather darkened that they had reached the point of no return. Their location, literally in the shadow of Canary Wharf's tarnished glittering stumps, only points that up. They will have to raise their game - by offering better quality or reducing their prices and doing away with the fripperies - if they hope to make it through.

The London Paper

Feargus O'Sullivan

Wednesday, February 18, 2009 - Dockmaster’s House is no ordinary curryhouse. It’s a smart, business-oriented venture dealing in haute Indian nosh, all dished up in ye olde nouvelle cuisine style, with little ¬towers of food and lines of sauce ¬perfectly dribbled at right angles. This might sound a little poncey – and it would be if the food wasn’t so bloody good, which, trust me, it is.

Worst restaurant experience of the year so far. Food portions were tiny - words on the menu like platter is misleading and should instead be labeled canapes. Prices were too high for what you get which is nothing great. The ambience is stuffy. The service was fine except for the manager/front of house who was rude and obnoxious.

Went there on Saturday night with 2 girlfriend's and even though we were late arriving even after changing our booking to later, they were extremely attentive and service was impeccable by our waiter Pravin. Excellent food, lamb chops to die for. After-service was really good too by packing the food for us and ordering a cab and even telling the cabbie to wait whilst we were getting ready to leave.

Staff - excellent. Food - sublime

Atmosphere - bit quiet for our liking but a party of 6/7 were loud which brightened things up.

Avoid this place, the worst service I have ever had the misfortune to experience, they were not busy yet we had to wait 30 minutes for our drinks alone.

The food is less than mediocre.

The only good thing about it was decoration.

Highly priced for what you recieve, at these prices I expect the best in service (they add 12.5% service charge) and very very good food, I got neither.

We will not be going again.
