Hidden gem. What a lovely restaurant. First time diners, four of us. There was a show on at the Theatre. Restaurant was quiet as a consequence. Didn’t spoil our experience. Very nice menu. Reasonable prices for city centre restaurant. Lovely, friendly staff. Look forward to going again.

I always love dining at The Rivals before the theatre but on this occasion the food was quite mediocre - both of our mains were luke warm and the chips arrived after my partner had finished his main and I'd almost finished mine. We didn't complain because we were on a time limit as the play was about to start. Also, there's so much on the menu these days that isn't included in the set menu cost that it feels a bit odd that it's a set menu.

It was lovely to enjoy a great meal before the show, the staff kept the table for us and we had desert at the interval which was lovely.

Food still excellent. Slow and inconsistent service. Quite expensive and supplements for certain dishes excessive.

Great for pre-theatre dinner. Very nice choices for a set menu and reasonably priced for the quality of the food. Prompt service, but do tell them you have a theatre booking and they will hurry your order along if need be. You can also order desserts to have during the interval. Good for groups as has plenty of big tables. Also, interesting wine list and something for all preferences. Usually go for the Paco and Lola Albariño as it's a wine lots of people like, and goes well with a lot of the dishes on the menu. Have been here more than once and always had efficient service and a tasty meal in lovely surroundings.
