Great food, we stayed in the connected hotell so we went here for breakfast every day and dinner a couple times. The service was great and the ambiance was very warm and calm. I can say hands down that this is some of the best breakfast I have ever had! I also thought that the steak was amazing and their drinks are great too! If your visiting or in town I would definitely recomend this place! read more

The food at Gilray's Steakhouse was decent overall, but the experience did not match the price point. With a bill of over £400, I expected a much higher level of food, service, and comfort. The biggest disappointment was the steak. For a steakhouse, I expected the steak to be the highlight of the meal, but the one I had just was not very good. The rest of the food was acceptable, but nothing stood out enough to justify the cost. Service was also inconsistent. Our waiter forgot a few things during the meal, including water and part of our order. My partner ordered fish, but the steak was initially placed in front of her. That was not a major issue on its own, but along with having to repeatedly call the waiter over because he was not checking on us, it made the service feel inattentive. The dining room was also uncomfortable. It was very hot outside that day, and with the windows open, the shades up, and the air conditioning not keeping up, it became extremely warm inside. It was also very bright, which made it harder to relax and enjoy the meal. Overall, it was not a terrible experience, but for over £400, I expected much better. At that price point, the steak should be excellent, the service should be attentive, and the restaurant should be comfortable. Unfortunately, this visit fell short. read more

Excellent ambiance. Quiet. Professional service. Food quality is average. Very pricey. Came here to dine with a view of the Thames River, but the windows are dirty, obscuring our view. read more

Enjoy drinks on our last night in London at Gillrsy's Steakhouse & Bar! Beautiful decor! Sophisticated vibes. Staff was extremely nice and checked in on us! I enjoyed the Strawberry Island Fizz Mermaid Pink Gin, Lemon Juice, Elderflower Cordial, Blood Orange & Elderflower Tonic Floral, Sweet & Fruity! Cheers to a lovely visit in London! Staff also shared we could the doorway from Gillray's to see courtyard with flowers and exits near the London Eye- Ferris Wheel. read more

Gillray's is located in the Marriott hotel where we stayed for four nights while in London. While there, we enjoyed four breakfasts and one dinner at Gillray's and we were pleased with each visit. Staff is attentive and friendly and the menu has something for everyone -- including our somewhat picky eaters! From omelettes to chia pudding, fruit bowls, waffles, toast, bacon, banana pudding, fresh juice and plenty of coffee, we loved the options each morning. I took the kids for an early dinner one evening and we enjoyed that too. We love the cozy atmosphere and the views as well. read more

I visited Gillray's for dinner on my first night in London & sat at the bar for a cocktail & a burger. The restaurant is located in The Marriott where I was staying & I was too tired to venture out for dinner. I decided to try the Street Crier cocktail after looking at the menu, talking to the bartender & meeting the Pea vodka sales rep who was sitting next to me. I was super hungry since I hadn't eaten since flying in from SFO & opted for the Wagyu steak burger with chips. The burger was huge & delicious but I usually prefer my burger medium-rare but this was cooked medium-well, probably because that would be the safe standard. The chips were perfectly crispy. I struggled to finish my burger & had a few bites left & I gave up. I'm a dessert person & wanted to try their sticky toffee pudding cake but I had no room in my belly. Service is professional, helpful & friendly. read more

I have been here so many times from childhood into adulthood. The hotel it is located in is sort of old faithful when in London. Technically speaking I had my first legal drink at the bar at 18 (I'm American so that was thrilling for me at the time) and its become a bit if a tradition when in London that even if we're not staying here, we have to stop in for a gin & tonic. The drinks are good and quite large. Lovely atmosphere. Excellent location. Great food - though I'm typically there for the bar. The Sunday roast is very old school and delicious. Highly recommend. read more

Nice quiet place for lunch if you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of the touristy areas of Westminster/London. It's a short walk from the London eye. The A/C and bathrooms are clean. The food itself is average while the service is a tad slow. Overall the food is nothing special but our family appreciated the quiet air conditioned atmosphere with clean bathrooms before heading back out to join the stampedes of tourists. read more

Spectacular and highly recommend! Get here early, no reservation needed unless you come later. The staff as usual for a Marriott was super attentive. The London Eye is just outside the windows and offers a unique experience! I can say enough about the food though. The beans and the desert were instant favs!! read more

Awful food and the worst service. They gave us old dry fruit for breakfast, cold stiff waffles and the omelet was dry and not fresh. We also had to get up and get our own juice since our racist waiter only checked on the white guests while he ignored us the whole time. I noticed he was very unfriendly to only the BLACK guests. He was very hospitable and friendly/talkative to only the white people. We spoke to the manager who seem concerned and was kind but only made excuses for the waiters bad behavior by saying he has been fine with other people of color. Maybe he just doesn't like black women and refuses to serve them. Plus, we were speaking of his behavior on this day, not other days. We only ate here because we were staying at the hotel attached to the restaurant. Believe all the bad reviews because they are true. I wouldn't recommend this place at all. read more

Inside Marriott hotel. Amazing building to walk through and the staff is wonderful! Yorkie club - sliced sirloin steak with a duck egg on top. Great color, presentation and taste amazing! Think steak and egg with a taste combination and flavor that is unique in a great way! Fish and chips - great fish quality which makes such a difference in taste. Sometimes the fish quality is comprised with fried food. When the fish is fresh like it is here the fish and chips is the way to go! This place is easy to get to. You can have a cab/Uber drop you off right in front or if you happen to be strolling around the London Eye area stroll by. Not to mention the restaurant has a view of the water and surrounding buildings. read more

Boy did we need to stop and chill out... London is a huge yet vastly walkable city and luckily everywhere you turn, you'll find a pub or bar where one might find some respite and refreshment and history. While meandering the South End, we stopped in to Gillray's Bar which is located in the historic London's County Hall - a massive building. A museum in its own right, one you can enjoy between coming in, and leaving Gillray's! The Bar is perfectly situated to view the Thames, the Eye, Big Ben, Parliament and almost everything on and across the river. Expansive windows, comfortable loungers, nice servers and a great selection of well, just about anything you'd like to embibe! The service and atmosphere are British Elegant Casual and the prices moderate. If your journey in London takes you to the South End, once over the bridge, this is a great stop for more than just a respite. read more

We tucked in here at the bar while waiting for the other people in our group to ride the London Eye. Which I had very much wanted to do, but was out of life energy points. This lovely swank bar/lounge was EXACTLY what I needed. It was fully restorative. When the rest of our group got off the Eye they also got restored with some food and drinks. It is definitely family friendly. There were some other parents with small kids in there as well. I do imagine they were probably staying at the hotel. Props to them!! I think if we come to London with young kids again we will look into staying at the attached Marriott. The servers were amazing as well. They let us chill and were also readily available when we needed something. The perfect balance, which can be hard to find. read more

Ambiance was fantastic. Tired of walking? This is an excellent place to chill out by the London Eye. The staff were attentive. Reason for 3 stars? The food needs to be revamped. The quality and taste do not match the ambiance. The £15 steak and chips (advertised by the window that caught our attention) was not worth it. Even if it's a cheap kind of steak, excellent chefs can be innovative. The lobster was ok but could have been better with melted butter. Overall, the food was bland and presentation was done poorly. Hope management will take this review seriously. The restaurant is in a good location. The name of the restaurant was not conspicuous enough to grab attention. The £15 steak and fries sign caught our attention but cheap food does not have to be prepared and cooked fairly. read more

The food was just ok. We paid alot of money and the steak was not prepared to standard. There was no lobster and that was a downside but we still wanted to stay to try out the steak. We could have done better and so could the Chef. Funny thing is that I sliced the steak so it could be prepared well done and he still sent it back medium rare. Waitstaff still had a service charge of over 30 pounds. It's all good but at least we know for next time. read more

Gillrays, located at the Marriot London County Hall Hotel. Gillrays is an upscale bar and restaurant. As you enter this establishment from inside the hotel, you first enter the bar and lounge. The lounge is posh and upscale. It has a sophisticated charm to ot with great views of the Thames River, Big Ben, and Westminster Abbey. The Bartenders are as nice as they come. The wait staff were moving between tables like bees taking orders and delivering drinks and apps. Off to right as you walk into Gillrays, you will find the restaurant with the same wait and bar service as well as great views of Thames River and local sites. The food menu is pretty good. I opted for baked/broiled chicken. It need salt and wad a bit dry. The potato sides were. Any mixed drink I ordered was fantastic as well. It is worth the visit to this restaurant. You can't beat the views and the great drinks. Bon Apetit. read more

Our first meal while vacationing in London was at Gillray's. Now I was extremely impressed with the set up and the way the bar area was set up. Very upscale and James bondish lol the service was great and the overall ambiance was on point. But, the meal I had, lobster and chips was not good at all. The lobster was extremely tough and they served it with a side of butter, not drawn butter but butter spread. To be fair, maybe that's how they eat lobster out there. The steak my wife had was decent. My kids had burgers. I would try it again, but I would stay away from the lobster. The bar area is sick! Lol read more

We stumbled into this restaurant after going on the eye. We were pretty excited because we love a good steakhouse. Unfortunately, the vibe was very weird. We persevered. We ordered 2 grey goose and sodas, the steak, fish and chips, Caesar salad and asparagus. The steak was terrible...we chewed away because we were starving. The fish and chips were great though. Asparagus was fine. They completely forgot our Caesar salad until the manager came over with it when we were done and asked if we wanted it and it looked really unappetizing and we were already finished with all our food. Fine- but then we got the check and the restaurant charged us $5.50 each for our club soda mixer to go with our vodka? Like additional? Mixers are supposed to be included in the drink? Bizarre money grab. Overall really disappointing experience. Our stomachs are not feeling to great and I'm worried something was off in our meal. Ugh. It was poor quality for $164 American dollars and crap food and service. read more

Service was awful! Tables were wide open and they told me it would be an hour. Then the food took equally as long. I asked for the manager and she did not apologize. While a guest of the hotel, it is unfortunate to has this poor of a restaurant in such a prime area. London has plenty of higher quality places in terms of service and ambiance. Food was mediocre at best. Would not come back. read more

I ate here for the first time a few months ago and had an nice dining experience. The service was excellent along with the service and ambiance. The appetizers and cocktails were excellent. The views of Westminster bridge, Big Ben and the boats along the River Thames are spectacular too. The prices were reasonable for the quality of food and views. I would highly recommend this place. read more

Located inside the Marriott County Hall, it's a fancy steakhouse by night and the main breakfast buffet by day. As far as hotel breakfast buffets go, this is one of the better ones. Super friendly service and pretty fresh offerings. I ate here twice so far and each time things were a bit different. The continental portion has mostly breads, pastries, fruit, and cereals and yogurts. Thick, Greek Yogurt is all they have - which is great from qualify and health standpoint. I really enjoyed their almond croissants: crispy outside, very puffy and filled with air, and just enough sweetness. Their muesli is also very good - thick, creamy, and fruity. Their hot selections on one day was order from menu - basically everything made to order from an English Breakfast menu. It would be scary to eat everything from it so I picked the potatoes, scrambled eggs, mushroom, and their pork-and-leek sausages. The sausages were amazingly good - nice seared outer crust and smoky and juicy interior. On their second day, they forgone the made-to-order format and set up a bunch of hot plates for a true buffet. They used these cute cast iron containers to hold in all the heat. The items: sausage, bacon, eggs, potatoes, and mushrooms were still decent, but not as good as the order-from-menu format. read more

One morning a dear friend of mine pinged across Booktable's latest Star Deal to visit Gillray's Steakhouse & Bar. With recommendations flying at me from many directions, something about this offer compelled me to book it, immediately. Not only was it a great-looking menu, it was also another Google Maps wish to tick off my list! GETTING TO GILLRAY'S STEAKHOUSE & BAR With the hustle and bustle of Easter weekend, we had to wind through crowds on London's, South Bank to reach our destination. After a couple of minutes of searching for an entrance, we wandered up an inauspicious set of stone steps tucked behind riverside attractions, such as: SEA LIFE London Aquarium, Shrek's Adverture, and Namco Funscape. As we climbed higher and higher, we suddenly found ourselves reprieved of touristic London, and instead, standing in the beautifully grand and peaceful courtyard garden of the London Marriott Hotel County Hall. The County Hall also happens to be one of my favourite buildings in London. EXPLORING GILLRAY'S STEAKHOUSE & BAR Upon entering Gillray's from the courtyard, you're welcomed into a casual, yet elegant lounge, filled with a pleasant farrago of grand and soft, convivial seating. I was already making a mental-note to return here after dining. We marched across the lounge, announced our arrival, and we were immediately led into a curved, wood-panelled dining room. Our hostess seated us in an ideal location; right by the grand bay-window. This gave us a clear view of the Thames river and London Eye, making for the perfect dining backdrop. "WINNER OF 2 AA ROSETTES, GILLRAY'S STEAKHOUSE & BAR AT THE LONDON MARRIOTT HOTEL COUNTY HALL SHOWCASES CLASSIC ENGLISH DISHES AND MOUTH-WATERING 35-DAY AGED STEAKS FROM O'SHEAS BUTCHERS. CUTTING-EDGE COCKTAILS (FEATURING A STOCK OF OVER 120 DIFFERENT GINS) OFFER THE LATEST IN MIXOLOGY TRENDS, WHILE BESPOKE FURNITURE TURNS THE SOUTH BANK RESTAURANT INTO A CONTEMPORARY HAVEN." THE THREE-COURSE MENU AT GILLRAY'S STEAKHOUSE & BAR I enjoyed every mouthful of my three courses, but the personal highlight of this menu was the beetroot & goat's cheese starter. The dish looked so pretty and dainty, yet the brûléed goat's cheese was sweet, hearty, and creamy. I also loved the addition of the nori-tasting tuile. I could have eaten that dish again and again. I went on to enjoy the pan-seared coley fillet in a shellfish broth, followed by a very artistic bitter chocolate and mandarin dome for dessert. EXTENDING OUR TIME AT GILLRAY'S STEAKHOUSE & BAR When it came time to finish our meal, we weren't ready to leave the pleasant atmosphere we were enjoying so much. We decided to return to the inviting lounge and indulged in a few more champagnes at the marble bar. This after-dinner extension rounded off a very memorable evening as both the dining and bar staff were friendly, helpful, entertaining, and attentive. WOULD I RETURN TO GILLRAY'S STEAKHOUSE & BAR? The big question is - would I return? Despite the mounting pile of wish-list, must-visits I absolutely plan to return to Gillray's to replicate another evening of casual lounging, and sumptuous dining.

My group of 6 planned on having dinner here after our first day here. We actually made reservations over a week in advance so our group wouldn't have to wait too long. Our reservation was for 8:30 and we checked in at 8:15. We were told that our table was not ready yet and sat in the bar area waiting. We were finally able to start walking to our table after 8:45 and while we were walking to our tables, i noticed just how many seats were open that they could've pushed any two tables together for us. Once sat, our server did not come over to greet us until 9:10. In my opinion, i don't think our server wanted to take us and i noticed a lot of other servers not doing very much. Even the manager just walked past us and never looked at us while he chit chatted and laughed with other tables. Once we finally ordered, our food did come in a timely manner but we never received a quality check back to ask if we needed anything. My group was pretty easy and the only thing we needed was more water. We waved a server down for water and she rolled her eyes at us and notified our server that we needed attention. I ordered the fish and chips which was one large fish and overdone fries. Would never recommend this spot. It's so overpriced for mediocre food and i can't believe how we were treated from beginning to the end. read more

We enjoyed a refreshing lunch here after a red eye flight from Pittsburgh PA, USA to the London Heathrow Airport followed by a long Uber ride to the Marriott through heavy London traffic and a Brexit protest. Whew! The steak and chips special was well worth 15 euro as the ribeye was a nice tasty cut and the chips were authentic. Our waiter Alex, from Spain was great and when our steaks arrived he opened up a box of steak knives for us to choose the one we liked best. Ha! Here we also discovered our new favorite gin, Martin Miller's. It was served on the rocks with European Tonic, ground black pepper, and a slice of dried crunchy lemon. YUM! As we stayed two nights we had the pleasure of indulging in their complimentary breakfast buffet twice. Talk about a spread! Coffee, tea, fresh squeezed juice, meats, cheese, eggs, omelettes, waffles, several home made breads with many spreads, yummy bacon and sausage, fresh fruit, so many pastries, dim sum, Asian noodles. Did I miss anything? ;) read more

My family and I chose Gillray's to have our Christmas dinner while in London for the holiday. We were excited to have a traditional British roast dinner, with all the trimmings. The pictures of their food on the website looked wonderful and the view pics overlooking the Thames looked amazing also. We couldn't wait to be there! Unfortunately, it was not as advertised and pricey for what we got (approximately $378 USD). First, it is a Marriott hotel restaurant, which means it was primarily filled with hotel guests. Second, what we thought was a sit down dinner turned out to be a buffet. It was not very well run, and the food did not look especially appetizing. At one point, there was no gravy on the buffet, so there was a back up in the line of people waiting. Eventually, someone asked one of the staff, who went and got the pot of gravy and instead of putting it in the serving dish, plopped the pot with no spoon on the buffet, then walked away. Finally, I asked for a slice of roast beef and got a couple of slices of congealed fat with a few bits of meat on it. So disappointing! None of the food was particularly outstanding and certainly not worth almost $400 dollars. As we left, I told the manager that we were not impressed or happy and he insisted on buying us all a drink in the bar. No other accommodation or explanation for the disparity between what was pictured and described on the website was offered to us. Not recommended! Bad food, over priced. read more

I know you are not supposed to have anything other than steak at a steakhouse but had to comment on the delicious non-steak meal I had here during a work function. We had three courses: started with cauliflower soup, which was delicious! Though I wished I had ordered the fish chowder. I ordered the fish although my colleagues had rump steak. It was one of the best piece's of fish I have ever had. Perfectly cooked. Moist and well seasoned. Totally impressive! For desert the bread and butter pudding was a spectacular end of meal in an unbeatable location across from Big Ben. Highly recommended! read more

We enjoyed a pleasant complimentary breakfast at Gillrays in the Marriott county hall in London. We had the full English which was bountiful and twice as much food as I could eat. (-; I'd say the meal was average and the portions generous. The service was outstanding and friendly. They made me a rich strong cappuccino with milk and double cream, just the way I love it. The view of the river at breakfast is pleasant. I liked the homemade yogurt on the continental buffet, and the breads. I didn't realize until I was finished that they can toast the tasty bagels from the buffet if you wish. If you order the full English, it also includes the continental buffet. read more

We took a brisk walk between St James and County Hall across the Westminster Bridge and arrived just in time for our seating at 7pm. Gillrays is set inside the old County Hall building just across the bridge from the Palace of Westminster and it is stunning. They have a fantastic bar and the dining room is very tastefully decorated. We were seated and provided with our cocktail; a fizz based drink with a few added extras which was a little sharp but tasty nonetheless. The set menu we had gave around 3 options per course. As a table of meat eaters most of the table went for the ham hock fritters with homemade piccalilli. I wanted something a bit different so opted for a mackerel dish with new potatoes and horseradish. While everything on the plate was well cooked and delicious I could help but think that it would have benefited from a warm element, whether the mackerel or the potatoes. It just felt like it wasn't quite what it could be. For the main course everyone went for the ribeye steak, cooked to varying temperatures. I went for my usual medium rare whilst some went for medium and one brave soul had a rare steak. The steak was really good. Excellently seasoned and not a bad size. We did notice that even though we all had the same, there did seem to be a difference in the size of the steaks that arrived in the plate. I won't complain too much though as mine came out a perfect medium rare. The chips were crisp and fluffy and the béarnaise was silky smooth. There were a few options for dessert but when you see sticky toffee pudding and ice cream on the menu everything else pales in comparison. The pudding itself was wonderful. Managing to be light but incredibly comforting at the same time. One of my colleagues had the same and the others looked on enviously from their ice cream or chocolate mousse. All in all it was a great experience at Gillrays. There were a some touches I really liked, such as allowing each customer to pick their own steak knife from an ornate box. The staff were really attentive too. What I didn't enjoy was the length of time we waited in between courses. Normally 10-15 minutes between courses is pretty standard. We must have waited up to 30 minutes between courses and the restaurant didn't appear to be all that busy. It's annoying but it wouldn't put me off visiting again. That said, I probably wouldn't go to Gillrays again, if only because there are so many more steak restaurants in London I have yet to try. read more

Booked a table to have dinner here after seeing it when walking past. When we arrived (at the time of our reservation), we had to wait about 20 minutes to even be seated at our table. Which is fine, as they had a great bar, however I thought it was a bit odd that we had to be seated specifically by the manager and not one of the many available servers waiting around. When we were finally seated, we ordered our food (after waiting again for a good amount of time). We had to call our server over to order drinks and our food every time, they weren't very attentive. Saying that, the food was really good. I ordered the caesar salad as is and it was lovely. We both ordered the rib eye with the truffle and parmesan chips and it was wonderful. The steak was perfectly cooked to my likely and very flavourful. The chips were to die for. All in all, I would eat here again. The service was slow, but I didn't mind TOO much as it was nice to have time between our food to enjoy our time, I do wish the servers were slightly more attentive when it came to checking on us in terms of ordering and our drinks. read more

There are not many places you'd think, "Where should I go for a birthday meal that just 'looks' pricey?" You wouldn't be wrong to think 'McDonald's!" But no. Gillray's is absolutely superb, from the setting to the knife you choose for your steak, it couldn't be a better mix of high-class and believing you're not high class. Loved everything and not a shocking bill. Alexandra was an amazing host and server. She was pure class and I hope our tip was enough to reflect how much we appreciated her. All in all a top notch place for a reasonable return. The steak was incredible. Would definitely go back. read more
