If you love seafood, you will fall in love with Wright Brothers. We came here with family and tried several items on the menu. They were all amazing. The oysters were extremely fresh. The fish pie was perfectly seasoned and piping hot with a cheesey, golden mashed potato crust....unlike any I have tried before. The cuttlefish and black ink rice entree, as well as their octopus, tomato, almond, and capers appetizer were artfully executed. It requires a great deal of skill to cook octopus or cuttlefish without overcooking it and coverting it to a rubbery nightmare. Compliments to the chef. His execution of these dishes was phenomenal. Both were tender and flavorful. Lastly, the cocktails. The selection of cocktails is limited, but they too are amazingly well executed and well thought out to perfectly compliment the menu selections. My only warning,..this place is tiny, so expect a bit of a wait, but it will definitely be worth it.

I also got two oysters, to try and I'm so glad I did! Ambiance was nice and our server was super friendly. It was saddening to see the lobsters in the tank, looking half dead and two fighting while one had a claw free. I definitely wouldn't have eaten had I seen that first. So I dinged a point simply for this reason. All in all, great experience.

We went on a Wednesday night, and it wasn't even crowded with plenty of seats. The quality of the lobster was not good. I noticed the center of the lobster tail was a bit undercooked and didn't taste fresh. Also, the claws were very dry. I ended up getting a really bad stomachache after dinner that lasted the entire next day. Maybe I just got a bad lobster, I don't know. But for me, the burger was the only thing that was tasty here. All I can say is that I have tasted very fresh, juicy lobster at other restaurants compared to this place. For a place that's supposed to be known for lobsters, this establishment was a major disappointment.

We went for lunch to celebrate my husband's recent milestone birthday and were bowled over. The oysters were bracingly fresh. His steak was perfect. For him, the highlight was the chips cooked in beef dripping: OMG over the top amazing! I had a Wellington with mushrooms and cheese (delectable) and a gorgeous Caesar salad. The sticky toffee pudding (my very first ever) was sooooo orgasmic! Husband had a strawberry tart that was fresh and creamy and served with a quenelle of mouth watering strawberry gelato. I was able to arrange a welcome drink for my husband on the OpenTable app. It came on a dinner plate with a happy birthday message inscribed in chocolate, and a single discrete candle. I cannot speak highly enough of the experience. We will be back.

Expectations were somewhat high coming in, given the collaboration between Celebrity Chef Nathan…read moreOutlaw of Cornwall, and the the Goring Hotel - the venerable institution (first hotel with running water in every room) favored by the royals of house Hanover and Windsor (the hotel's founder, Otto Goring, was a Germanic emigré). We arrived a bit early, and were offered the opportunity to have a drink at the bar - the Siren restaurant is housed in an extension of the bar that is a solarium overlooking the garden. Martinis are correct, properly chilled without over-dilution (no small feat during these hot summer days). Moving on to our table for 2, we were greeted with crusty bread, seaweed butter, and whipped cod roe (in essence inspired by a greek taramosalata). We settled on baked scallops and the cuttlefish black pudding as starters. Excellent scallops, though weighed down a bit by an overly strong orange butter and breadcrumbs. The cuttlefish black pudding was created a very moist custard-y texture that is lighter and more succulent than the traditional version. That said, my personal preference would be that it did not eschew the seafood flavor in its goal of avoiding "fishiness". I would have hoped that the dish would retain certain flavors that would remind me that I was eating cuttlefish and its ink. But these are minor quips. We also sampled some of the best cockles and clams we had ever tasted. We had been presented with the day's special was a seafood platter with lobster, clams and cockles but could not resist asking if the kitchen could offer us just the clams and cockles - and they did, at very reasonable cost. Beautifully mineral and briny, these reminded you why one seeks out restaurants that can source the best seafood. The main was the Grilled Monkfish for 2, elegantly spiced, paired with 2 sauces - a tartare (light cream sauce with capers and shallots) and a crab sauce (an intense bisque). The first bites were pure meatiness, like the finest kebab of monkfish. Later bites revealed an intense spice profile reminiscent of a Chicken Tikka. Bravo. Service was good, not completely crisp but the staff meant well. Let's be fair it's only been open for a couple of weeks. Note: Visited on Sunday, July 14th 2019.

The food at Wright Brothers is good with okay value, but the environment is great…read more The thing everyone talks about is the £1 oyster happy hour, which is a great deal. I do have to say though, the oysters were far from the best I've had, as they were quite small and not very flavorful. Brixham cod (£30)- Pretty good and went well with the peas and crushed potatoes, but I don't think the portion size was really worth the price. Shrimp burger (£22)- Similar story to the cod, decent but not really worth the cost. I also tried 2 of the "lo and no" drinks (a fruity one and the virgin mojito), which were both quite good. The best part of this place is the nice location right by the River Thames and the Battersea Power Station, especially on a nice weather day. They have a nice outdoor seating area as well as a pleasant indoor space. The staff are friendly and attentive and the service speed is decent. Overall, while I do think Wright Brothers is slightly overpriced, I would be willing to pay the price if I can enjoy the nice weather and happen to be in the area.

Service was barely there and making comments whilst looking at the customers - I was pretty shocked as it is such a contrast to the Borough and Kingley Court locations.

However, I need to warn my fellow Yelpers to stay away from Oliveto if you value Good Pizza! I mean, how hard is it to have good pizza!?! It is a simple staple which I have enjoyed in the US, in China and yes even in Italy. At it's most basic, it should be dough, sauce (doesn't have to be tomato necessarily), mozzarella and maybe some toppings, right? Here is where Oliveto went wrong for my mother and me: 1) they use cheap cheddar cheese - not mozzarella! 2) not a lot of sauce, maybe just enough to color it 3) the dough was soggy and didn't rise (I actually like thin crust, but this was inferior doug and 4) topping that were not as advertised, i.e. prosciutto should not look like and taste like store-bought sliced ham! Service was okay - the men like to talk about customers in their native tongue, thinking that patrons don't know what they are saying about them. We were so glad that we split a pie - most tables got a pie per person. Neither of us could finish this "pizza" honestly. Perhaps the only redeeming thing are the prices - this might be the cheapest choice in an otherwise expensive neighborhood.
