    Short rib sticks and rice balls.

    Thought it would be good given the need for reservations- disappointing. The Snow Balls w/ cranberries should have been sent back- not good. Tasted like I put a dirty sock in my mouth after walking for 10 hours. The short rib sticks lacked flavor but very very tender. Service was not great. I would not recommend this place.

    The food was truly delicious and I appreciated their non-alcoholic drink menu. The service was wonderful as well. The restaurant was a bit loud and the seats were a tad too close together for my taste, but that is my only complaint!

    Chicken sandwich

    Good however expensive food. I like the dirty bones however it was just a little too expensive for what we got food wise. The portions are very small however it is delicious. Great service and ambiance as well.

    The food here had a nice combination of different types of cuisines. Their specialty seemed to be the chicken and waffles. While they were out of waffles, we just ordered the chicken with a maple syrup and it was so delicious!! Got the mac daddy that had short ribs added, so good! The cheesy fries too omg! Amazing.

    Mutts nutts specialty drink

    This was our third choice as first choice was out of the specialty we wanted and second had closed their kitchen. Dirty Bones did NOT disappoint! It is what o would describe as a hip Japanese/ British fusion cuisine. Two for one happy hour from 3-6 pm on signature drinks( albeit it had to be same drink so we couldn't try different ones even though there was only $1 difference in prices). Ordered the Mutt's Nutts ( whiskey sour) and it was fantastic! Also split a classic burger, side of fries and a Crispy chicken which came with a dill dipping sauce or a teriyaki type sauce. Everything was was REALLY good. Enjoyed just chilling and the water closets are behind a bookcase moving door.

    Cool bartender

    A super noisy place but that is a sign of a fun busy bar, right? This is in a sorta hidden location just off the main drag in the SOHO/Carnaby area. It closed at 11 PM (if I remember correctly) which is way too early but we made the most of it while there and closed the place out. We sat at the bar which most times is the best seat in the house. We had a great bartender who was nonstop busy and super friendly. Overall, it was a fun night and a great place to try.

    From the ambiance, to the music, to the delicious food! I give this place a million stars!!! Soooooo good!

    Holy moly that was delicious. American in London. Needed a place to eat and with a party of 9, was harder than expected. We tried a pub that was full, went to another that smelled like urine, and were headed to the chicken and burgers place across the street. One of our group suggested Dirty Bones, and they accommodated us at two tables. The atmosphere was cool and the food was outstanding. My husband and I each had the reverse burger, one son had a the mac and cheese burger and the other had chicken and waffles. Can't say enough how good it all was. Even the chicken and waffles - coming from a southerner, this is high praise. We got flat whites, the mini donuts and gelato as well as the cookie waffle for dessert. They were good - not exceptional. Overall, a great experience, delicious food, and would eat here again. Highly recommend!

    Deputy Dog drink has mojito roots, with a twist!

    We finally feel at home! Upscale decor with black panelling, white tablecloths, candles - and the restroom discreetly hidden behind a secret bookshelf. Attentive and attractive waittresses wielding an extensive drink menu, plus reasonably priced basic foods to keep your tummy happy. Trendy hotspots like this normally cost more. Seriously; what more do you need? If they add naked women in cages to dance to the moderately loud music, it MIGHT improve my opinion of this place - but then my wife wouldn't like it. Better not change a thing. First Chicken & Waffles we found in London, and it is GOOD! The drinks were good as well, and the Key Lime Martini - in particular - was outstanding! We'll be back in a few days to try brunch!!

    Nice restaurant with an interesting menu and friendly staff, prices are OK-ish…read more I had a Peanut Butter Burger which seemed crazy but perfectly worked. Only negative side was that they switched the doneness of the meat of my friend and I (on two different burgers...) and that they were both overly cooked in general (a medium which was by far well-done and a medium-rare cooked medium). I would give 3.5 stars.

    As the first person to review BOBO social, I'll admit that I would in most cases give a three star…read morerating, but mainly because I think there is definitely potential and really good food. In an attempt not to scare people off from trying this place out, I'm going to go ahead and say 4 stars for now...and here is why..... My work colleagues and I headed over to BOBO Social during it's first lunch seating. Advertising its small plates and innovative burgers, there is also a special to have a takeaway burger and fries for a 10-er, attracting some of the media types in the area who may not be able to break away from their desk and have a sit down lunch. Food: As I wasn't in much of a burger mood, I shared a bunch of small plates with one of my colleagues. These are definitely small plates and probably my biggest disappointment with the meal. Though the servers encourage you to have about 3 plates per person - I would recommend having more than that - though at 8 quid a pop for some of the smaller plates, this may be pushing it for a lunchtime meal. Other spots in the neighborhood with a similar small plate menu leave you feeling much more full at the end of the meal. The food itself was quite good: The steak strips, watermelon, tomato and feta, & Crispy squid among my favourites. I'll definitely look to go back to at least try one of their signature burgers - the peanut butter burger with bacon sounds like it could be a delight. Venue: This is probably the best part of the spot. There is an upstairs with good lighting and a small seating area and also a downstairs to the venue. The downstairs can be rented out for events, private larger bookings or parties, and as an intimate feel with little cave-like seating areas in the back and private bar. I'd definitely encourage a try and to provide the helpful staff with feedback on the meal as they get up and running. This could potentially be a great addition to the Charlotte Street restaurant scene.

    Woah! Byron seems to be taking over the world...well at least they seem to be taking over London! I…read moream not convinced there needs to be a Byron here, as there are two other branches within walking distance...but meh...it looks like there are plenty of burger lovers to fill them all. I was expecting it to be hideously busy as there are so many students milling around this area...but there were a few spare tables, and we were seated within a few seconds of arrival. Yay! The burger: - I tried the cheeseburger, with blue cheese (I love that you can choose which cheese you'd like!)...and it was looovely. They gave me a huge chunk of blue cheese, so it started to droop out of the burger in a happy-blue-cheesey-wave. Omnomnom. - When the waitress told us they would be cooked medium rare, we mentioned we like it a bit rare. She listened to us, so our burgers were cooked to perfection, with pink centres and plenty of burger juice dripping out of the bun. Nom. - The brioche bun was soft but managed to withstand all the extra burger drippage. The rest: - This branch has one complete wall of windows and is painted with yellow and white stripes...the effect is very cheerful and bright, especially on sunny days like today. - I loved that they have model cows sort-of-hidden among the light fittings and on the top of mirrors. - The staff were friendly, but also speedy and efficient...perfect for lunch time eating. I still think £8 is a on the pricy side for lunch, so I can't afford to come here very often...but I'll be in a good mood on the days that I do.

    Very solid, though my rating probably isn't what you're looking for since I don't eat beef…read more Nonetheless, my portobello mushroom burger with added bacon was delicious to the core. The crispy bun had soft, fluffy insides, and the mushrooms were fresh and cooked well. Not too much sauce, but enough for a good flavor. Cheese to die for. The ambiance and staff of this particular outlet are both superb (if you've seen this Byron from the outside, you'll know what I mean. Glass walls and high ceilings in a very trendy way).

I was staying in a hotel by Warren Street and a friend wanted to meetup for steak. Being a lazy bum I was looking for a place near the hotel and was glad to find a Black & Blue branch.

The chips that came withy the salad honestly tasted like they came out of a frozen bag. I asked a waitress for the wifi password, she entered it and walked away. My phone said it was unable to join. I would have asked her to re-enter it but I didn't see her again. Once our food was delivered we didn't see anyone again for what felt like atleast 45 minutes, no would you like some more water, or another cocktail....

    Undoubtedly one of the best burgers I think I have ever had!…read more This is a pretty interesting establishment, as other reviewers have observed, the site of an old pub. The choice of decor is a mix between industrial and old world which makes it a pleasant environment. The staff were very attentive and pleasant which makes a very nice change in Central London. I opted to have their special this month, and being that the 2014 World Cup is on, it was a football themed burger - The Ronaldo. This was one hell of a big feast, there's no need for any side dishes if you have the Ronaldo. The burger comprised of two patties, American cheese, bacon, butter fried onions and crispy onions, all served in one of their brioche buns. The meat was good quality and perfectly cooked to medium; nice and pink in the middle. The toppings were generous and perfectly arranged. It made of a hell of a challenge to eat, there's no way to get a bit out of it, so I did have to do a bit of deconstructing, but that just added to the experience! My partner had a cheeseburger, that she also described as one of the best burgers she had ever had. She said it was perfectly cooked and extremely tasty. She added fries which were golden, fresh and very tasty. All in all, if you're looking for a decent hamburger in London, you have to stop off at Byron, it's excellent quality food, pleasantly served and very very tasty!

In fact, the burger I ate one evening--after pints at the pub down the road--was one of the best I've had in a very long time. Although a big and growing chain in England, quality of ingredients is a top priority. They source their beef from Scotland and grind daily, then cook to a nice, pink medium doneness. The perfectly cooked burger is placed on a soft bun, with a minimum of condiments. I ordered the "Chilli", which came with green chilli, American cheese, shredded iceberg and chipotle mayonnaise. For sides, you can get traditional French fries, UK-style chips, onion rings, cole slaw or macaroni and cheese. A nice selection of UK craft beers is available to wash down the excellent, satisfying burger. If you're an American staying in London, and are longing for a taste of home, Byron won't disappoint.

    When I saw "Ultimate", I had a really high expectation. It was going to be served by the St. Pauli…read moreGirl. Naked. And it would have sparklers on the plate. And the plate would be made of gold. So as you can imagine, it wasn't quite like that. It was a decent burger (I was sort of surprised not to be asked how I wanted it cooked) that was dressed properly with lettuce (what we Americans call Bibb lettuce, I'm not sure how it's called here) and a tomato that was proper and red without core. And a good thick mushroom with bleu cheese that had melted in the heat. There is no way this burger's being picked up and eaten, but I'll admit that I did at least try to take one bite before falling back to a knife and fork. Chips were good and hot, some were a little overdone and some were a little underdone. It seemed like I might have gotten them when the first basket had run low? I wasn't in the mood for a beer - choices were Peroni or Budweiser - so I asked for a large glass of tap water. I got a "low ball" glass that wasn't refilled. All told, a decent eating experience and I would return. But was it "Ultimate"? Not quite.

    I'll be honest, I stepped into Ultimate Burger hoping to step out with a negative review in mind…read more For some reason, I've found myself frequenting American-style burger joints in London, and it's gotten to the point where I've started rooting for the little guy as opposed to the chains. For a stateside equivalent, I saw Ultimate as a Red Robin, and while Red Robin makes some great burgers, I'd much prefer a local place. Off the bat it was a mixed bag. While the selection was impressive in terms of breadth and uniqueness and the prices reasonable, service was quite slow even though it wasn't overly crowded. However, when the food arrived all notions of a negative review went right out the window. Primarily, my Smokey Mountain Barbeque Burger was absolutely massive, and I soon realized (as had those around me) that at Ultimate Burger a fork and knife are key. The ingredients used appeared as though they were quite fresh and the burger was cooked just right. One thing I will say is that the burger itself wasn't overly flavourful, but the various compliments made it enjoyable. Additionally, while only a coin over a pound each, my sides of chips and chili con carne were a bit on the mediocre end of the scale. All in all, I stepped out of Ultimate Burger having eaten an absolutely massive burger, two sides, and 500ml of bottled water for under £15, and while it doesn't come close to South Kensington's Byron, who still wear the crown of Best Burger in London, Ultimate was a good experience. So if you're in the area and absolutely must have a burger, Ultimate Burger is a great value and a good experience. However, the strip of Tottenham Court Road surrounding the Warren Street Station is packed with amazing dining options of all cuisine's, so strongly consider those before resorting to a chain.
