Grilled chicken marinated with South American inspiration

Assenheims bar and grill

Large portions, so quite good value for money.

Unfortunately, I found the food quite bland. The green sauce is their signature, but I am one of those people who loathe coriander so the sauce was not good for me.

Not only was the food bland, it was basically cold. The potatoes were barely warm when served, the veg and chicken not even that.

The food came out very quickly and is clearly reheated rather than cooked fresh. I can live with that, but please take a few extra minutes to serve and reheat the food properly.

Discovered this great restaurant when I was near St Paul's. They have a few locations around the city.

Absolutely delicious  food and value for money.

I had the beef patacones which is essentially tender pulled beef sandwiched between two massive crispy plantain "flat breads" but is gluten free.

While I didn't have room for dessert, they do offer dessert along with 2 vegan sweet options.  Lots of savory vegan options as well.

Staff was incredibly friendly, helpful and attentive.

Depends what you want. The portions are enormous it’s and value is great. The actual quality of the food is sub par. The chicken is ok but even though marinated, there isn’t a particularly special taste to it. The green sauce has no discernible flavour at all. So you need chilli to give it a kick. The rice is plentiful but looks more tasty than it actually tastes. The grilled vegetables weren’t grilled at all, they were boiled and over done, far too soft. So the meal was very bland but there was a lot of it so I left feeling full for little over a tenner.

Amazing chicken place with generous portions. On a good day one chicken box can serve lunch and dinner for me!

The chicken is very tender and juicy. It is also seasoned properly, with a mixture of spices, leaving a wonderful aftertaste.

Remember to ask for extra green sauce! It is a perfect match with the chicken. You'll never forget the taste once you've had it. For people who like spiciness, the chili sauce goes really well with the green sauce.

The sides are less impressive. Vegetables and rice are a bit undercooked to my taste, without much seasoning either. But hey, what more can you ask for after such delicious chicken.

Overall very good value for money. The waiters are helpful and friendly.

Great lunch option in the area. The grilled chicken is very tasty (as is the green sauce that comes with it - an absolute must). Portions are generous and filling. There’s seating available, however it doesn’t look very inviting and i always do takeaway.
All the staff are very nice and welcoming.
Try to go for an early lunch - it happened that the chicken was a bit dry when we arrived later in the day.
All in all would recommend and will go back.

Chicken is Halal and HFA certified. Pork is served but prepared and handled separately to prevent cross-contamination.

Well, I have no compliant about the quality of the food sold here, I have eaten multiple times. Today I stepped into the restaurant at 2:05pm BST and saw the chicken tray was empty, so checked with the person at the counter and he said chicken and salad is still available(well the manager should be knowing who was working at the counter on 4th Sept at 2pm). I ordered a small portion of chicken and salad £10.5. Guy served salad in front of me and took the bowl to the kitchen/store room (i believe)and served the chicken(which i believe was left out) and packed it. He didn't weigh the chicken which they usually do and it was a bit away from me but I was clearly able to see what he was doing. Guys if you know it's done and closed please inform the customer rather serving what is left out and less in quantity for what we pay for.  Extremely poor service.

Good food, nice staff.  What can you really say? It’s very similar to the other venues. They have good food but the price has gone up similar to everything else so it’s a lot more pricey to get the standard rice box with chicken.   Sandwiches here are a good option or something to get every now and again.

There is fierce competition for lunch food in the City amongst the thousands of hungry workers. Food is generally expensive in the area with portion sizes at a premium. Not here. The portion sizes for your food is great with all of your macros being attained. Use the home made green sauce with your chicken - highly recommended. The chicken is also halal here.

Such good value for lunch in the city - huge portion and you can get all of your macros in! Must get the green sauce with the famous chicken and rice combo. The queue is long though, try to get there at midday or the queue gets longer than butchers.

The food is really good like the other Assenheims, it has a nice are to seat and enjoy the food, but I would prefer to have it outside somewhere else, so I don't have to hear the mouthful manager. He is always shouting and swearing to his work colleagues.  He forgets that there is people i that understands Spanish, like what happened to me with my colleagues
This guy is very inappropriate and lacks of respect and teamwork.

We took my 15 year old cousin here as he loves steak (cooking and eating) and I've had good experiences in the past at the Mayfair location.

Prices are, like many steak places, eye watering. It was a Saturday evening and the restaurant was quiet, even when we were leaving at 8pm.

I don't object to paying for good quality food and service but I must say, we got a very mixed bag with this place.

On arrival, we were seated in a nice booth at the front.. Our server was helpful and pleasant, we were offered drinks and menus immediately, and shown the customary raw meat selection.

Interestingly most of the starters are seafood based (prawn, crab, tuna) which is a problem if you have a slightly picky teenager with you. He had the bread basket to himself (which you're charged for, which in and of itself, I find astonishing). Over 30 years of going to all kinds of higher end restaurants and this is the only time I've been charged for bread other than specialised bread baskets. Last year's teenager birthday meal was The Ivy, the year before The Savoy Grill. On neither occasion did either restaurant charge for the standard, pre-meal bread. In fact, the Savoy provided a second basket for the teenager free of charge.

To start I had the prawn tempura and the other guest had the burrata. The burrata was good quality and tasty. The prawns were generous but I found the creamy sauce and batter a sickly combination. I felt in needed more citrus, sharpness.

I ordered the sirloin as my main, teen had the Australian Ribeye and the other guest has the fillet. We ordered fries, chips and green beans to accompany alongside 2 x peppercorn sauce and 1 x Stilton.

The sirloin was beautifully cooked and very tasty. As was the Fillet. However, the ribeye was underdone and the Stilton sauce tasted only of beef gravy. We sent both back. The ribeye was refunded and the Stilton sauce left unimproved and replaced with a bernaise (at our request) in the end.

On taking the ribeye away the manager (? I assume, she never introduced herself) asked if we wanted another. We said no as we were half way through out meals. She did not return to follow up or establish what the outcome of the complaint would be. And she did not apologise.

Super disappointing.

Our waiter was very good, though, and apologetic. They did provide a Birthday sundae for the teenager but we opted not to order anything further.

In the end, the ribeye had been removed from our bill, as had the sauce.

Its worth noting that this place adds a 15% service charge. I once again implore all visitors to London restaurants to ask for service charges to be removed.

Restaurants that charge £40 for their cheapest steak and £9 for each side order should not be expecting guests to plump up staff wages. We have a living wage in the UK and, whilst I continue to (and encourage others to) tip for very good service, I don't believe in the ever growing trend on foisting service charging on customers.

And 15% is ludicrous.

A disappointment in the end, especially as it was the teenager who didn't enjoy his steak and it was his birthday. Won't be returning.

We were alone in the restaurant and had to wait for drinks when the meat was already on the table (the bartender was too busy talking), and then the waiters forgot about us and didn't come over.
The meat was of good quality, but the taste was ruined by the burning due to the cooking method.

The dessert and tart-tart were delicious

🍽REVIEW
One of the best steaks I've had, I think. Superb service, Michael was so friendly, took us through the menu, and explained what was halal and what we can and can not have due to cross contamination, etc. Everything was just brilliant!!! Definitely be back soon.

Amazing steaks! Expansive wine list as well. Good and attentive service but it can be some time before your food arrives

We had a fantastic time at Goodman City, where they consistently deliver an incredible steak experience. Andy and his team made the whole evening feel special and we look forward to returning soon!

We have Canadian steak available as a halal option.

Easily my favourite pizza restaurant in London 🍕🍕🍕
The Corn, Chorizo and Coriander pizza is my favourite. They also offer vegan chorizo on the pizza which is delicious.
The Wagyu pizza is also delicious.
I can’t recommend this place more. I love this place.

The pizza was impressively large and nicely presented, though the flavor was just okay. The service, while clearly well intentioned, felt a bit too persistent, staff checked in repeatedly within very short intervals, which made it difficult to relax and enjoy the meal. Overall, the experience was fine, but not one I would be eager to repeat.

Was ok. Service very Slow, and it wasn’t even that busy. We had to wait forever for a few slices of in the end sloppy, COLD and rather tasteless pizza….served on paper plates!! Weird given the price. Other tables who arrived after us got served way before us. Also it’s too loud for a proper conversation without shouting across the table. Definitely won’t be back anytime soon and I can’t see myself recommending this place either.

Incredible pizza stop with wonderful service and great atmosphere. It is subtly dim and minimalist in a nice way, with consistent views to the roaring pizza oven. Pizzas are 20" super thin base and a thick puffy crust, it is absolutely wonderful BUT MEANT TO BE SHARED. While I was able to go through a whole pizza on my own, many will not and they will happily warn you. If you are going simply you can happily order by the slice but if you want to share some more complex options, go for half and half and get stuck in! Decent cocktail selection too, they do have dessert options but I did not give them a go.

High recommend and absolutely will go again!

Freshly made oven baked pizza, they do it in a very big size but thin. You can order either slice by slice or a full one. There’s a half half which you can choose two flavours. Tasted good.

Our Wagyu and lamb are both halal, and of course our vegetarian pizzas.

Pizza Express

I visited this establishment earlier this week for a reunion meal. It's really simple to book online and wasn't a problem that we had tastecards. You can get 2 for 1 on all starters, mains and desserts which is fantastic (Sunday to Thursday only). The atmosphere was fairly dead as it was a weekday which was perfect as it can get really busy so shouting becomes a must. Despite that the service was extremely slow and unattentive; our mains came before our starter plates had been removed despite being in situ for around 10minutes. The food is standard pizza express quality so pretty decent. There are toilets and easy access for those with disabilities. All in all a decent place to visit but do invest in a tastecard; we saved £51 on our bill by having 2.

Went for a 'pizza making' session where we all got to make our own pizza from the grounds up (except for the dough which was handed over to us). It was quite satisfying to be taught by the head 'pizzaiolo' to make a perfect pizza. Mine turned out to be good (see pic). Happy with the effort but struggled to finish my own-made pizza as the crust was a little too dry for my liking. Topped it off with an Eton Mess Sundae.

One of our colleagues had her phone snatched by a thief on a cycle just outside the Pizza Express. She obviously was gutted. Nothing wrong with the establishment but the alley is too quiet even on a weekday so keep your possessions safe!

Worst pizza express I've been to for a long time. Rude waiter. Also had to send back a tiny salad 'Special' to get my usual order instead (so that I felt fed!), it came excessively drenched in olive oil. Had this dish many times before and enjoyed it, this was well below usual standard.

Tucked away just off Cheapside this is another great restaurant in the Pizza Express family. Service fast and efficient and always with a smile even at busy times. Pizza and wine always delicious, skipped dessert this time as yummy couldn't take any more food

Friendly staff, food the usual pizza express standard. I decided to ring in advance to see if they were busy during lunch time . I was greeted by a friendly person who advised me it should be ok and took my name down. I arrived and the service was very good and staff attentive.

PizzaExpress has used halal-slaughtered chicken for several years, but we have never been able to offer a finished dish that was Halal-certified, due to the presence of pork and other non-halal meats in our restaurants and as our kitchens do not operate halal procedures.

Whilst our previous suppliers provided halal slaughtered chicken, it was never our policy for that to be our only option. Since the launch of our Autumn Menu on the 21st September our chicken now comes from accredited suppliers that use both non-halal and halal slaughter methods, because we have recently increased our sourcing options on chicken to ensure continuity of supply during the current challenges within all supply chains.

Where halal slaughter is used, the animals are stunned before slaughter. All our meat suppliers are approved by the Brand Reputation Compliance Global Standards, a globally renowned safety standard and, all comply with EU or local animal welfare regulations.

If asked our teams in restaurants are trained to provide customers with accurate menu and ingredient information. In addition, this information is available on the customer support section of our website.

Please be aware that none of our other meats are halal and we do not have any halal kitchens or restaurants.
