Enjoyed my experience throughout. Food, table and the service were really good. Would go back again for special occassion, business lunch, family dinner or to simply treat my wife. The menu had alot to offer and had dishes of very good value and interesting ion. A bit for everyone. Wine: We ordered the Errazuriz 1870 Merlot from Chile – reasonably priced.<br />Food: My wife and i decided to share the Chateaubriand 18oz, it was cooked to perfection and ample for two to share. This come with 3 different choices of sauces as well as Maris Piper potatoe Frites, new potatoes or a side salad. We also ordered spinach and french beans. Dessert: We settled for the fruit sorbet as we were full from the meal.<br />Service: The service was excellant, wine arrived within minutes, the food was served promptly, the service was not intrusive.<br />cleanliness: the restaurant was clean from the entrance to the restaurant internally as well as the toilets which were checked very 15 minutes (there was a tiolet checklist with signatures on the wall).<br />Could not fault this restaurant at all.

Five members of our family enjoyed a gastronomic feast last Thursday evening at Covent Garden Chez Gerard. The cost was far less painful due to us using our Tesco vouchers to ease the bill. Our waiter made the night extra special, enjoying a bit of a fun with us throughout the evening. The food was superb from the Escargot to the Chateau Briand Steaks and Creme Brulee, and the wines were also excellent. How about opening up in Swansea? Well Recommended.

One of the best restaurants I've been to for ages. You couldn't ask for a better location and the stunning roof terrace overlooking Covent Garden was breathtaking. The food was fantastic, as was the friendly service & the total bill was pretty reasonable bearing in mind the gorgeous surroundings. A real winner!!
