Amazonico

This restaurant used to be a former banking hall and my what a change they have made! There is lush greenery hanging from the ceilings, incredible art intsallations, live music... it's so atmospheric! 

The staff were also very knowledgable and really stood out when adjusting dishes for dietary requirements efficiently and discreetly. 

My birthday dinner go to!

I love this restaurant! The food, the staff, the ambience, the music and ohhhh the delicious food!! So many unique dishes, the mango and avocado starter, the lamb chops and the desserts! All the desserts just to kick start, are delicious and unique!

I would definitely recommend here to anyone who enjoys eating good quality food in lush luxurious rainforest like surroundings.

Amazonico is one the best restaurant; the restaurant's atmosphere is unique and welcoming and makes you feel like you are somewhere else.

The menu and the food are delicious, and the musical band makes it very appealing.

Overall, this restaurant is one of the tops in London.

At the outset, if this restaurant has been awarded a MICHELIN star then this undermines the entire rating process.

The restaurant is well decorated, has a nice ambience and spacious. However, the spacing for a 6 person table (booth) is barely enough to fit 5 and is incredibly uncomfortable.

We were a party of 6, and we ordered several salads and other sharing dishes including sushi followed by a main course meal for each. We has 2 JW Black labels, 3 virgin cocktails and water. The bill came to £876.50.

The overall rating we gave the food was 5/10. The salads were hot and miss.

The Calamari comes with approximately 6 pieces on the place for £32 a plate not including service charge.

We ordered the T-bone steak costing £150 plus service charge which was inedible. I had requested my steak medium/rare which is how it came, but the quality of meet was one of the worst I have had on a steak. I asked for peppercorn sauce and mustard to have with my steak and was told that they did not have either. The offered one type of sauce with the steak which was an onion based sauce.

I am absolutely shocked that a restaurant would not have mustard and would only offer one type of sauce with their steak.

I returned the steak untouched and no one at the restaurant even asked if there was anything wrong with it.

Having paid the bill i noticed that they had overcharged us for two of the non alcoholic cocktails which watered down with ice but which they replaced. When i paid the bill they had charged us for the two drinks they took away as well as the ones they replaced them with. I contacted Amazonico the following day to inform them of this and to provide some general feedback. I was told they would look into the concerns i had raised and would revert. When i did not hear back from them 4- weeks later i contacted them again. They claimed they had emailed me back but never provided a copy of the email they had sent.

At any rate, 4-weeks after my complaint I was contcated by their Guest Relatiions Manager who offered to refund me for the £20 they overcharged me and apologised for the experience and that they had arranged for refresher training for their kitchen staff and team. Note that the £20 i was being refunded was money they had overcharged me for and not any form of guesture on their part.

I asked why they had not offered to refund me for the poor quality T-bone steak which cost £150 plus service chare which I had returned untouched and they offered a complimentary bottle of champagne if i dine their again with my guests! I am absolutely appalled at the fact they they did not even offer up a refund against the steak and then conditioned their offer of a complimentary bottle of champagne to me dinning their again.

Needless to say i rejected the offer and will never be dining at Amazonico again.

I will certainly not be following the MICHELIN guide to dining in future - incredible that this restaurant would be awarded a MICHELIN star.

I've been to my fair share of 'immersive experience' restaurants over the years but save for one or two distinctive occasions, the majority fall a bit behind.

Amazonico was something of a breath of fresh air. It pulled me out of London for the duration of our visit and offered a remarkably good dining experience. We were warmly greeted, the menus were clearly explained and the suggestions were delicious. The empanadas were amazing and the T-Bone steak was unlike any I've eaten before.

My young son was well looked after and particularly liked the 'peacock' glass his carefully made soft drink was poured in. Food comes first when I sit in a restaurant and Amazonico did not disapoint. The ceviche, sushi, sides, salads were all as fresh as it gets and of outstanding quality. Everything from the decor to the service and ambiance were really special. Will be visiting again, without a doubt - probably the best restaurant in London at the moment.

I took my daughter for her birthday and asked in advance for a birthday dessert. They might as well not have bothered: They uncermoniously brought over a tiny ball of ice cream with a candle stuck in it. It was so disappointing! The food and ambiance were nice, but this ruined the whole event. Even in less expensive restaurants, they make more effort. For a place where you can drop £300 for a meal, you'd think they could do better. Never again!
