The staff were amazing and so friendly. They really make you feel like a VIP and they're funny too. Loved the decor and colour of the interior. Food was great. We went for the Cuzco tasting menu. My partner and I weren't a fan of the aubergine and I'm personally not a fan of tuna but the rest was delicious. I recommend the Pinku cocktail. Can't wait to go back.

We celebrated a birthday at Smith’s Bar & Grill in Paddington and the atmosphere was absolutely lovely warm, elegant, and perfect for a special occasion. We went for the tasting menu, and wow — the food was incredible. For those familiar with fine dining, you’ll appreciate the richness and complexity of the dishes. But fair warning: if you’re not used to fine textures and rich ingredients, make sure your stomach is ready.... because the next day? Let’s just say, you’ll be spending some time with your toilet . The wine pairings were served at perfect intervals, complementing each course beautifully. Honestly, one of the best meals we’ve had. A live violinist added a beautiful, romantic touch to the evening the setting was intimate and classy. Check the photos they say it all. A truly special night. Highly recommend for anyone celebrating something meaningful or just looking to indulge!

The platter is well worth the 40! Leaving our stomachs full with beautiful foods, we were left truly unable to talk to each other. We didn’t know how to explain the whole experience. When we could speak it was both to agree that it was amazing! Truly and utterly amazing!

1 oysters every Friday and Saturday from 6pm. Pair with happy hour cocktails. We got a bottle of Prosecco and the combo was delicious. There was live performance as well, and it’s suitable for kids, highly recommend.

The Sunday roast brunch was well worth it. Each of the three courses was excellent, with a fresh smoked salmon starter and generous portion sizes, with the option for additional servings if desired. The only minor critique was that the pork was slightly dry. The staff were exceptionally attentive, ensuring glasses were topped up without the need to ask. We will certainly be returning. The venue provides a welcoming, family-friendly atmosphere, making it well-suited for those with children, who are thoughtfully catered for.

I celebrated my birthday here today and we had the most amazing time! The staff were incredibly sweet and friendly — we had a group of about 20 people, so I can only imagine it wasn’t easy, but they made everything feel effortless. I truly appreciate how wonderful the experience was. Thank you so much — I’ll definitely be back!

The ambiance is really nice here. There was live musician, a violinist that was playing music which can be heard throughout the whole space. We had come here on a Saturday to have oysters and drinks. They had a selection of cocktails and they had an offer of two drinks for 12. The offer on the menu was written as if it would continue till midnight but the offer actually stopped at 23:00. My friends enjoyed their drinks and there were lots of people there enjoying the music and dancing. You need to order your drinks from the bar and I think you can also come here for food as well, as there were other people on the side having dinner. So their bar/drinking section is separated from their dining area. Overall, a very nice place, great decorations, good music, lovely atmosphere and good drinks.

Stopped in for a simple meal and was delighted! The service was friendly and attentive. I ordered an Old Fashion (Bourbon, of course!) which was well-made, not sweet, nicely balanced. I had a ribeye for my meal, medium rare, of course, which was perfectly cooked. This is 28 day aged Scottish beef - delicious!!
