    We had an incredible Sunday roast at Blacklock Covent Garden. The food was absolutely top-notch—perfectly cooked meats, rich and flavorful gravy, and some of the best roast potatoes we’ve ever had. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, making it the perfect spot to unwind after a busy day in London. A special shout-out to James, our waiter, who went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Even with two very tired children in tow, he was patient, friendly, and incredibly accommodating, making sure we had everything we needed. His great service made a real difference, and we truly appreciated it. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a proper Sunday roast with fantastic service. We’ll definitely be back!

    Everything was perfect, the only issue was that we weren’t given a bag from the Xperience San Valentín. I had to go and ask if we were supposed to receive one because no one gave us anything, while others were leaving with their bags filled with items. Other than that, it was an unforgettable experience.

    Wow what a night. Was an incredible meal start to finish. Everything was cooked beautifully. Starters were fantastic the Vietnamese oysters with pork belly which was fall apart tender. The main event was a great cut of rib-eye which was cooked superbly. Overall service was fantastic and just a wonderful evening. Would certainly recommend.
