   Harry’s is a great place, we have visited several times and have had a lovely experience. The drinks are great, a lovely negroni can be had. The menu and presentation of dishes is great and really consistent. On this visit I think we hit on a difficult night service wise. Our table appeared not to have a consistent server which led to extremely long waits for drinks, including top ups of wine and clearing our plates. This led to a mix up of wines. This was resolved eventually and the bill adjusted accordingly so hopefully this is a one off, as a member of the Ivy chain, the experience was below our expectations

   Ah, my dear reader, allow me to recount a tale of culinary disillusionment that might have been plucked from the pages of a satirical farce, yet unfolded with all the grim determination of an unpolished tragedy. It began with the precision of a Swiss timepiece, for a table was reserved for the hour of 1715—an arrangement for four souls eager for convivial indulgence. Upon our arrival, we were greeted by the amiable creatures stationed at the door, whose cheerfulness gave no hint of the calamity to come. Seated with all the pomp befitting regular patrons of Harry’s Bar in Victoria, a haven where the staff have perfected the art of graciousness, we anticipated nothing less than an evening of delight. Alas, the first omen of discord was the unceremonious eviction of four elderly ladies nearby, their dining pleasures cut short by the cold tyranny of a ticking clock. Their departure, like a funeral bell tolling in the distance, presaged our own misfortunes. The interlude between the starter and the main course stretched out like the interminable pause before a storm. When at last my main—truffled chicken, a dish whose very name promised decadence—arrived, it bore the appearance of perfection but the texture of a tragic metaphor: tough as penitence and unyielding as the heart of a miser. I summoned the waiter, that supposed agent of solace, who whisked the offending dish away only to return with the dubious report that even a replacement fowl would offer no reprieve. Instead, he proposed a portion of grilled vegetables—a suggestion so absurd it verged on the surreal. Was this his idea of culinary reparations? One might have expected the offer of a chisel and mallet to accompany the chicken, but no, we were treated instead to a plate of arid vegetation, bereft of flavour and joy. Hunger, that relentless tyrant, drove me to bread as my final recourse.

    I booked a table 2 weeks prior as I had a guest visiting London so I wanted them to enjoy their time here a day before my reservation they called me and confirmed my booking as well as having a email confirmation, on the day we go and I give them my details for my booking we sit down 40minutes later without asking for the bill they bring it baring in mind my dessert hadn't arrived yet and once my dessert comes the waitress says I have to move to to the bar to finish your dessert as we need the table back because there's another booking so I asked for the manager (ginger head lady) came I explained the situation I even had to show proof of my booking for her to believe me rather apologising for the lack of service and rudeness of her staff she said let me check with my ‘friend’ to see whats happened she walked off and never came back to our table. For a well-known restaurant like this in a prime location in London it was the most disappointing service especially in front of my guest visiting for the first time I for sure won't be going back there and wouldn't recommend.

    Dear Maryam, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. I want to sincerely apologize for the disappointment and frustration you encountered during your visit. We deeply regret that your special occasion was overshadowed by this experience, especially with a guest visiting London for the first time. From your description, it’s clear that we failed to meet the high standards of service we strive to provide. It is unacceptable that you were asked to move mid-meal, and that your concerns were not addressed promptly or respectfully by our team. Your time and trust in choosing us mean a great deal, and we are sorry that we fell short of your expectations. We will further investigate the entire situation according to our company policy. All the best, Harry's Bar!
