The Gallery And Grill - Woodford

Came here last night for a post birthday meal with my friend. Food was lovely. We had the shrimp and scallops for starters and the lamb and beef for mains. Food portions are big. They surprised me with a birthday cake which really nice. Our waiter (forgot her name) was really nice. She recommended us what to eat and drink. Will definitely be back when I’m next in the area.

This is a stunning venue with excellent food and drinks. Booked the private dining room my husband's birthday, and the staff were really attentive to us and our guests. Everyone really enjoyed the food and atmosphere. We went to the bar upstairs after, and the DJ on the night kept us dancing for hours. Really good mix of music. I would have rated 5 stars, but I found the communication poor from the event manager, who failed to update me on changes to my booking. However, effort was made from the staff to rectify the situation on the night. Will definitely return and recommended the private dining room for parties of no more than 16.

I visited the restaurant as part of a large group for a birthday celebration. The ambiance of the restaurant/bar is quite impressive, though it lacks a sense of urgency. The staff were friendly and attentive, striking a great balance of making us feel welcome without being intrusive. The food was very good—somewhat pricey, but reasonable considering the quality of the dishes and their presentation. For me, the black bauch starter was one of the best I’ve ever had, and my 12oz steak was cooked to a perfect medium, just as it should be. The cocktails were the standout items, as they were incredibly flavorful with excellent taste combinations and flair. This is a perfect spot to celebrate a special occasion.

We started with a starter and then went for the Sunday roast. The scallops were incredibly delicious, and the prawns were so tender that they practically melted in my mouth. We also had ham hock with roasted bread. For the roast, we ordered two beef and two lamb dishes. Both were exceptional, cooked to perfection and very tender. We absolutely loved the gravy; it was rich and flavorful. The portion sizes were generous, and we all needed a little break because we wished we could have had a second helping. We will definitely come back to try the other dishes available during the week. The ambiance and service were also perfect. I highly recommend it, 10/10!

The atmosphere was beautiful, and the staff was incredibly attentive. We ordered the chateaubriand with triple-fried chips as part of a Groupon deal, and it was absolutely delicious. At first, I thought the portion looked small, but it turned out to be quite filling and satisfying. It also came with a delightful side of broccoli with chili. We enjoyed it with champagne, a peach tea cocktail, and an egg selection that included chocolate and coconut, vanilla, and a strawberry sorbet loop. We had a wonderful time and would happily return soon for more delicious chateaubriand!
