Review of Smollenskys On The Strand
12 May 08, 20:41
ooooh la la 
I was quite suprised by how big this place is, and the after work crowd really do get crammed in. I'd recommend booking a sofa or two if there's a large group of you going in for drinks. They do a wide range of cocktails, but beware - order too many at once and the waitress seems to get alittle confused. Still at least they are happy to bring over chips and other nibbles when the cocktails start to take effect.

Review of Hamburger Union

Always disappointing 
I don't have high expectations of a place called Hamburger Union, and honestly just expect it to do what it says on the tin - serve hamburgers. But i am always unsatisfied by this place. Perhaps it's the way you have to order at the counter like in a fast food restaurant, but are made to sit down and have your food bought to you as if you are in a restaurant. The burgers are always overcooked. Hamburgers should only ever be served medium! Chips are usually dry too. And it's over priced - even for central London.

Review of Eds Easy Diner

Good burgers, better shakes 
The service is ok and the decor predicatable, but eating here is such a non-event, so don't expect a long, luxurious dining experience if you go here. But if you want food in a kitsch American style diner then this is the place. The regular burgers are ok, but i really have to recommend the breakfast burgers. They are so big you'll have to try and persuade your mates to share chips, as a portion to yourself may be too ambitious, especially if you are having one of their thick shakes. I was pleasantly surprised at how blooming gorgeous the peanut butter one is.
