Went to Simpsons to celebrate my husband's birthday and had made them aware of this too. The food was brilliant but felt let down that the occasion was not recognised at all. A small birthday cake as a token would have been lovely. We also went for a meal here 2 years ago for my husband's birtgday and I felt the staff had been better and more attentive in the past and had acknowledged his birthday with a small dessert, which at £130 per person for the meal is not too much to ask!

Firstly I would like to say the food was exceptional as always. The issue was the service. On arrival we were seated in the garden and provided with drinks menus for a pre lunch drink. After 10 minutes of waiting for a waiter I had to wonder round the restaurant looking for someone to take my order. From this point everything went fine until after the third course. Nobody removed our dirty plates, nobody came to offer coffee. Again I had to leave my seat and go and search for a member of staff, only to find four or five staff members congregating around the bar having a chat! Even after I commented that we were feeling somewhat abandoned there was no apology. As it was my friends birthday lunch I didn't want to discuss it further at the time so I just paid the bill and left with our dirty plates still on the table. This may seem like a small thing, however when I am paying nearly £200 per head, including a £45 service charge, at a Michelin star restaurant I would expect exceptional service. I have been dining at Simpsons for several years and always found it a wonderful experience. Sadly I think this will be my last visit as personally I go to restaurants such as this not only for the food but for the theatre. Having to wonder around looking for staff on two occasions really ruins the sense of occasion.
