Service was slow. Food was bang average. I had a Sheppard’s pie, which was so dry! The lamb had no moisture which made it difficult to eat. Having the restaurant in the hotel brought a nice quality to the atmosphere but also raised the expectations which were sadly crushed.

The service was quick without being pushy, and the staff very polite and efficient. Seating was comfortable and the choice of drinks were good. Would not hesitate in returning for another meal

Dined out in several places in London recently and this meal is by far better than some really good restaurants near the strand

The staff were courteous and attentive without being intrusive. The menu has a varied selection from small plates to fuller dishes.

The food was very good, the staff very polite and friendly but the service was very slow. Needed to remind several times that we were waiting for starter, drinks etc

As a person dining alone I felt comfortable in the restaurant The food was delivered to the table swiftly and was really tasty The only problem I found was some confusion with who took my order and who delivered it yo my table for example ordered a coffee and waited some time for it to be brought to me and was no longer hot

Unfortunately I was very disappointed with the food at the restaurant in strand palace hotel .The hotel is lovely and the bar area decor and drinks were superb .The food was very bland and not what I would have expected a good chef to produce which led me to believe there was no chef .The food was microwaved…..a massive let down for a beautiful hotel in Covent Garden .

We were visiting my cousins who travelled to London from America and they were staying at The Strand Palace so we decided to book at the Haxells as it was conveniently located in the hotel - what a mistake!!!! There was hardly anyone at lunch apart from our table of 9 and the food took about an hour to come out ! Service was shocking and food average! My family staying at the hotel had the same experience the evening before so it seems there are management issues as it’s consistently average food and shocking service! Prices do not reflect the food or service- don’t go there!!!

Very good service (it was early and relatively quiet). Good selection of wines and food. The sweet potato fries were overdone with too many small over-crisped bits in the bowl, but the beef burger was great.

Staff were welcoming and eager to take our order. Food and drinks arrived in good time. Staff came to check all was well with our food. Plates were cleared. Then we were completely ignored. No one returned to ask if we wanted more drinks, nor to offer us a dessert menu or take any further orders. Shame - we likely would have had both! That said it’s far from cheap, so perhaps it was a blessing in disguise!

Nice corner table, and good service, with excellent small plates of food, except they had run out of flatbread or other - just ordinary sliced left.... Good place to meet up with friends before the theatre...
