Take note of the additional £2 per person to dine there which takes the service charge up by 8% for £100 or 4% for the £200 what we spent; hence total service the comes up to aStaggering 17.5%!Rather tacky exterior with excessive red furnishings and fake flowers. Interior is much more classy.Mains was good: monkfish masala curry and soft shell crab burger. The hake was good but on the small side. Gosh pie was bland unfortunately.The issues is the 13.5% rather than 12.5% was standard service and also an additional £2 per person which worked out to 4% of our bill which meant service charge was 17.5% for a service which was good but not outstanding!The £6 for water was unacceptable! lol

I had an amazing experience at this restaurant! The food was simply outstanding, and the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. The restaurant's decor is designed to look like a train, and it's simply beautiful inside. The oysters were some of the best I've ever had, and the seafood platter was absolutely delicious. The desserts were also amazing - not only did they look beautiful, but they tasted incredible.As a seafood lover, I highly recommend this restaurant. We went there to celebrate Father's Day, and it was the perfect choice. While the prices are on the expensive side, it's definitely worth it for the quality of food and service you receive. I would definitely go back again in the future!

Simply outstanding food, service, and ambiance. We've eaten our way through the UK top to bottom and hands down, J. Sheekey was the best so far. The scallops were amazing. The Sole and Halibut were prepared perfectly. The sides were spot on, and the mango and passion fruit cheesecake was delicate and brilliantly prepared. It made the 20yr Tawny port shine. It was our pleasure to dine with you.

There is a reason this restaurant has been here for over 100 years, wonderful service, food and atmosphere. Everything was cooked to perfection and the service effortless. It’s a delightful place for a pre theatre lunch.

Very good restaurant, but also not for everyone - the menu is not very “universal”, as this place focuses on seafood dishes. They were tasty, nicely served and properly prepared. However, it’s not a five star restaurant to me, cause doing everything good is expected these days. And it was rather expensive, so one can expect a bit more.

J Sheekey is a London institution. It's one of the places to go if you're looking for a classic fish and seafood restaurant in the heart of Soho.Despite being what could be considered quite old school or stuffy, the servers are all incredibly sweet and engaging which I think makes a difference.The menu has an excellent range of fish and seafood dishes.It's a great choice for a date night, pre theatre dinner or especially if you're visiting the city- ita quintessually English and excellent for people watching.Would recommend companies, caviar, fish of the day and lobster. The fish pie is a speciality. The prawn burger is also great.

Some restaurants are just class, have always been classy and hopefully will always be classy. J Sheekey is one such establishment and always delivers in terms of food quality and service. On this visit I tried the Galician octopus for starters which was really good and reminded me of dining alfresco on the Mediterranean. For my main I chose the lobster thermidor and fries which had a great sauce and really hit the spot. I finished with a double expresso and as always really enjoyed the experience. Yes this place is a bit expensive but IMHO it is well worth it.

If you like fish, you'll love J Sheekey. Food quality is superb albeit a bit pricey, but where isn't these post pandemic days in London. Restaurant was established in 1896 and its probably only been refitted once or twice since then. It has an old school charm about that would be hard to replicate. You immediately feel cosy and relaxed as 100's of black and white photos of the stars of yesteryear gaze down upon you. It's certainly an experience.
