My visit to Browns Covent Garden left me with mixed feelings. Located near the vibrant theatre district in London, I had high expectations for this renowned restaurant. However, the experience fell short of my hopes. I decided to try the Roast Cod & Kale Salsa Verde, but it turned out to be disappointingly average, especially considering the steep price. Although the location of the restaurant is decent, nestled in the heart of London, it didn't provide the outstanding experience I had anticipated. One major drawback was the noticeable tension among the staff, which unfortunately disrupted the ambiance. Their conflicts were audible from the dining area, detracting from the overall dining experience. Moreover, the presence of crying babies further impacted the atmosphere. To my surprise, the restaurant lacked the expected city view, which was unexpected given the high prices. The setting and decor aimed for a high-end feel, but it somehow felt pretentious and unwelcoming, despite my appropriate attire for a fine dining establishment. While Browns Covent Garden may be a popular choice for its proximity to the theatre and offerings like afternoon tea and a variety of starters, my personal experience was underwhelming. Additionally, the service charge added to the bill seemed disproportionate to the level of service received. Browns have the potential to be a delightful dining spot, especially for theatre-goers. However, my visit was marred by a few key aspects that need improvement.

We had the NYE Special Menu yesterday. The taste was 5/5, and the service was a remarkable 6/5. The reason we gave it a 4-star rating was solely due to the small portions. For the price they charge, we expected larger portions. But all in all, thank you very much for the delicious dinner!

Was very disappointed with the food and staff services. Couldn't order my first choice on the menu because they ran out of fish, so I ordered chicken schnitzel with salad, and my fried had a festive burger. The schnitzel was extremely dry and dehydrated that I couldn't even cut it. So I returned the plate and asked to redo it. By the time a second attempt arrived, with chips instead of salad, my friend had finished her meal, and I couldn't be bothered to send the plate back for second time to change chips for salad. The chicken was cooked slightly better this time, but it was still bland and dry. The service was very poor too. We needed to remind our order, and were interrupted four times during our meal by the waiter who tried to serve us orders made by table next to us. The only positive point to note was that despite the busy dining area, the atmosphere was relaxed due to well spaced tables. I wouldn't be back to this place and wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

Completely packed, bad service, inconsistent food. We came for a Christmas dinner, it was a Friday so expected it to be a little busier than usual but nothing like what we experienced. Tables were rammed up against each other to fit everyone in, service was incredibly slow, despite being told when we sat down that we had to leave in 2 hours (the table had been booked for months). There were 9 of us, mostly ordering similar meals but none came out the same and the portions were tiny for the price you're paying (e.g. a SLICE of a stuffing ball, 1 single pig in blanket). Every other table seemed to get Christmas crackers etc. but we were forgotten. Real disappointment, go for your Christmas dinner somewhere else.

We invited some friends from the US to meet us here. It's a nice location, in the heart of the west end, and a nice place to walk into. We were warmly welcomed on arrival and taken to our guests, who'd arrived shortly before us, before being shown to our table. The food was lovely, but the crumble, that two of us chose from the prix fixé lunch menu when we ordered our starters and mains, wasn't available by the time we were ready for pudding 😞 Oddly, the waiting staff leaned over us to pass glasses, plates of food and cutlery to our guests, rather than walking around the table!
