   Everything was absolutely perfect! The staff were very friendly (special thanks to Sam and Taro), and the food exceeded our expectations — it was truly delicious. This is the perfect place for a special lunch or dinner. We will recommend it to all our friends and will definitely be back!

   The service was great, no complaints, attentive and polite. But the overall ambience is poor, overly bright lighting, pretty strong smell of cleaning product/bleach and overall feeling of tiredness. But the worst part was the food, sadly was very average at best.

   The food was amazing, the best steak we had ever had and the atmosphere was just right. I would have given 5 stars until it came to paying the bill. We were over charged by nearly £150 and when we queried this the waiter refunded what my husband had paid and took the correct amount The issue was that there was no real apology or any kind of response to this which left us with a very bitter taste. Mistakes can be made but we would have expected a proper apology and perhaps a complimentary drink or something. Not the service I would have expected from a high end high priced restaurant. Be warned to fully check your bill and do not get distracted when paying!!

   Had a lovely time at Rowley's with friends on a Saturday afternoon. The food and service were great, and the decor was amazing.

   Good place to relax over a good lunch / dinner. Not Michelin Star, 3 corse and wine for 2 about £150 but high quality food & service with an OK wine list. Must like it as been coming for 30 years.lovely and interesting decor. My latest visit in August 23 was slightly disappointing. Being on the slightly boring side we chose cod & chips again for a quick lunch, always had been just fish & chips . This time we found that new flavourings had been added to the meal which rather distracted from the natural taste of good fish and batter and should have been told prior to ordering. June 2025, a great visit back celebrating 50 years it was good to see good back at its best, the menu is not large but well planned and match and accompanied by a nice drinks list. Service was lovely by really nice staff. Don’t forget to admire the decor.

   I've been coming to Rowley's for over 35 years as the Jermyn Street location is excellent and the steak and chips and wine have reliably been good quality and reasonable value for the West end. I hadn't visited for a couple of years so I popped in for a late lunch with my wife after a little pottering around in the January sales and we were shown to one of the splendid window tables. The menu was pleasingly familiar with even some new additions and we selected Chateaubriand and a decent bottle. Perhaps is was the distance of the table from the serving area or perhaps it was a changeover of shifts but the service was slow and it was somewhat challenging to attract the attention of any staff. The quality of the meat was adequate and it was cooked competently but didn't really justify the price. Overall, a slightly disappointing experience and it may be a while before I return.

   Had a great night here. The restaurant is really clean and tidy. The art and decoration is very charming too. The staff are very friendly, approachable and well trained. The food was fantastic. One of the best steaks I have ever had. Top restaurant worthy of its place along London’s famous Jermyn Street.

   Our last night in London and we visited Piccadilly Circus and stumbled across Rowley’s. It’s a charming, intimate restaurant. Great dinner and delicious dessert! Laura (our waitress) & the staff were kind and inviting.

   Used to come here with my family for great service and great steak. Went last night with friends and this great establishment has unfortunately gone down hill. The steak is still decent but the service is severely lacking now - not their fault of course, but the waiting staff are pretty green. If you’re paying their pretty high prices you expect service to match it. Plus things like their famous unlimited fries are not what they were at all as other reviews have mentioned. Cheese and crackers were of supermarket quality. Cheesecake very average, was told it was made in house, not convinced. A shame

   Had read great things about this restaurant, so as we were staying in the same street we didn't want to miss a chance to try it out. The staff were so friendly and knowledgeable when we asked them any questions and the atmosphere in the restaurant was relaxed and welcoming. It was busy but food was delivered quickly and we did not have to wait long at all. We had the rosemary baked camembert to start which was fantastic, and then the Chateaubriand which was cooked just how we like it (although if it was just for me I'd have had it slightly more pink). We even got a complimentary glass of prosecco. We will definitely return as had a fantastic experience.
