    Very Good ServiceJune 5, 2018
    Went to Chez Bruce for a long leisurely lunch. Service was impeccable and incredibly well synchronised with our own pace. Definitely one to put on your 'best restaurants in London to try' bucket list.

    I love places where the focus is on great food and accompanied by a relaxed but very attentive service. One of the best restaurants tried so far in London! Worth the detour to Wandsworth!

    A little out of the way of central London but absolutely worth it. Great quality, decent value and solid service. Don't miss out on the cheeseboard at the end.

    It doesn't really matter what you order here - everything is incredible. Their reputation for their creme brûlée is well-deserved. Thanks for a great birthday lunch Chez Bruce!

    I don't think you can go wrong with Chez Bruce. If you're south of the river and want modern fine dining without breaking the bank, it's a great option. Read more

    Been here a few times before but less impressed on this visit. Careless service and underwhelming food. A real pity as has been, as other commenters say, consistently good in the past.

    There's a private room upstairs if there's a group of you - good for birthdays. Ask the sommelier for recommendations, he's usually got something interesting up his sleeve
