The service was friendly and relaxed though they were fully booked. Many tables were enjoying this or the mussels. I was still able to enjoy the happy hour which were channel oysters. They were flavorful but not as meaty as I like. The Gillardeau on the other hand were quite possibly the best I've ever had!! What a win. Dinner service was efficient and warm. The roasted hake was perfectly done with one side pan fried to an audible crisp. The textural difference and the flavors of the saffron mash/gremolata all added up to comfort + happiness + surprise. Job well done Wright Brothers!

The texture of those fishes become firmer with a very unique taste and the presentation is simple but elegant! For my visit, the prawn was not as fresh as other seafood, maybe due to the freeze and defrost methods.

*** 5th floor of a shopping center***…read more Food was delicious. Pricing was great. We shared the combo for two that included the lobster, burger and lobster roll. I also got two oysters, to try and I'm so glad I did! Ambiance was nice and our server was super friendly. It was saddening to see the lobsters in the tank, looking half dead and two fighting while one had a claw free. I definitely wouldn't have eaten had I seen that first. So I dinged a point simply for this reason. All in all, great experience.

We had…read moreasked if we could get a booth but the front hostess said booths were only for parties of 3 or more. Yet, I see her seat a couple in the booth 15 minutes later. We went on a Wednesday night, and it wasn't even crowded with plenty of seats. The quality of the lobster was not good. I noticed the center of the lobster tail was a bit undercooked and didn't taste fresh. Also, the claws were very dry. I ended up getting a really bad stomachache after dinner that lasted the entire next day. Maybe I just got a bad lobster, I don't know. But for me, the burger was the only thing that was tasty here. All I can say is that I have tasted very fresh, juicy lobster at other restaurants compared to this place. For a place that's supposed to be known for lobsters, this establishment was a major disappointment.

Expectations were somewhat high coming in, given the collaboration between Celebrity Chef Nathan…read moreOutlaw of Cornwall, and the the Goring Hotel - the venerable institution (first hotel with running water in every room) favored by the royals of house Hanover and Windsor (the hotel's founder, Otto Goring, was a Germanic emigré). We arrived a bit early, and were offered the opportunity to have a drink at the bar - the Siren restaurant is housed in an extension of the bar that is a solarium overlooking the garden. Martinis are correct, properly chilled without over-dilution (no small feat during these hot summer days). Moving on to our table for 2, we were greeted with crusty bread, seaweed butter, and whipped cod roe (in essence inspired by a greek taramosalata). We settled on baked scallops and the cuttlefish black pudding as starters. Excellent scallops, though weighed down a bit by an overly strong orange butter and breadcrumbs. The cuttlefish black pudding was created a very moist custard-y texture that is lighter and more succulent than the traditional version. That said, my personal preference would be that it did not eschew the seafood flavor in its goal of avoiding "fishiness". I would have hoped that the dish would retain certain flavors that would remind me that I was eating cuttlefish and its ink. But these are minor quips. We also sampled some of the best cockles and clams we had ever tasted. We had been presented with the day's special was a seafood platter with lobster, clams and cockles but could not resist asking if the kitchen could offer us just the clams and cockles - and they did, at very reasonable cost. Beautifully mineral and briny, these reminded you why one seeks out restaurants that can source the best seafood. The main was the Grilled Monkfish for 2, elegantly spiced, paired with 2 sauces - a tartare (light cream sauce with capers and shallots) and a crab sauce (an intense bisque). The first bites were pure meatiness, like the finest kebab of monkfish. Later bites revealed an intense spice profile reminiscent of a Chicken Tikka. Bravo. Service was good, not completely crisp but the staff meant well. Let's be fair it's only been open for a couple of weeks. Note: Visited on Sunday, July 14th 2019.

The food at Wright Brothers is good with okay value, but the environment is great…read more The thing everyone talks about is the £1 oyster happy hour, which is a great deal. I do have to say though, the oysters were far from the best I've had, as they were quite small and not very flavorful. Brixham cod (£30)- Pretty good and went well with the peas and crushed potatoes, but I don't think the portion size was really worth the price. Shrimp burger (£22)- Similar story to the cod, decent but not really worth the cost. I also tried 2 of the "lo and no" drinks (a fruity one and the virgin mojito), which were both quite good. The best part of this place is the nice location right by the River Thames and the Battersea Power Station, especially on a nice weather day. They have a nice outdoor seating area as well as a pleasant indoor space. The staff are friendly and attentive and the service speed is decent. Overall, while I do think Wright Brothers is slightly overpriced, I would be willing to pay the price if I can enjoy the nice weather and happen to be in the area.

However after ordering their biggest seafood platter (1 each) and fries, we left with a bill of £200 and we were still hungry. I was not impressed with how little was on the platter.

Service was barely there and making comments whilst looking at the customers - I was pretty shocked as it is such a contrast to the Borough and Kingley Court locations.

Portion was huge, and easily shareable. Delicious!! Service: It was ok. We waited in line for a really long time (more than an hour) but we were checked on from time to time. Once we were seated and ordered, no one really checked in, but we asked if we needed something. Ambiance: Cute outdoor seating. In door seating was okay. Reservations get to go into a back room which seemed nicer. Lovely side street in a crazy busy popular area. It's a solid 4.5 stars for what it is because the food was so good. I'd return.
