What Richard S doesn't like about Skylon:
I wasn't overly impressed with Skylon. Been wanting to go for a long time and finally managed a visit. Staff polite but not very passionate/engaging. Interior very uninspiring. Two tables next to us had been cleared but not cleaned or reset, didn't help improve the lacking ambience. Food was well cooked but the set menu was uninspiring. Single grilled chicken breast with some truffle mash tasted nice but nothing spec... View all feedback. What K likes about Skylon:
Absolutely gorgeous meal here! With great views also. The scallops starter was to die for. Managed to get a table without making a reservation which was extremely lucky. Staff was very friendly. Great decor and atmosphere. Really impressed View all feedback.

Excellent food and service. personal very friendly and responsive. on request after the window. we could stay over two hours. would be highly recommended.

Skylon, located by the Thames, offers patrons a mix of experiences. Some diners found the staff lacking passion and the ambiance uninspiring, with issues such as food quality and service hiccups. Others were impressed by the great atmosphere and views, quality food, and attentive service. The restaurant seems to have its charm with a range of experiences, from disappointing to delightful, making it a spot worth considering for a visit.

Good food, excellent service and nice ambience with views out on to the Thames. I found the wine a bit overpriced though.
