Jamie Oliver Reviews 

Visited Jamie Oliver's in Brighton and the staff seemed like they had been forced to work there. They seem to have been more interested in chatting to each other than serving customers. Food was sloppy too!

We went to Jamie Oliver in Victoria. Chicken was blah, the pasta was luke warm, tasteless and not value for money at all. Nobody asked me do I want parmesan. One table got their starters at the same time as their main.

Poor, slow service. We had cocktails, which were dire. All ice, no drink. Absolutely shocking. For a Chef who tells us to cook fresh etc, I could teach him a thing or two. The sauce for the pasta was not a fresh sauce for sure.

Overall, not good and we will never be going back there!

If I could do no stars I would

Went to Jamie’s at Bluwater Kent because of offers that I had received as part of my gold card membership.
We were told we could not have both offers, even though they were on the same email promotion and it did not state we could have only one of the two. My husband wanted the glass of wine and I wanted the pudding - no we couldn’t mix and match the offers - very unaccomadating! Particularly as I have recently had surgery and cannot have alcohol which I explained to our waitress - she didn’t care, and couldn’t explain the reasoning.
When the food arrived it was poor quality and tasteless. The waitress asked how we liked it, we told her it wasn’t very nice. She again didn’t seem bothered or surprised. She did apologise but didn’t try to alleviate the problem or do anything to compensate.
We will not be returning. I’m not surprised these restaurants are closing down if this is the level of service and lack of quality.

Jamie Oliver’s in St Albans- very poor service, waiting over 20 minutes for someon to ask for our drink order ( the restaurant was not busy at all).
Then after waiting that long it then took them a further 15-20 minutes to take our food order and our waiter didn’t know what was on the menu and couldn’t tell us what sides they offer, etc. The food finally came and the starters were okay but very very greasy, leaving a horrible taste in all of our mouths. The main then came half an hour later and my steak was burnt so I asked for a fresh one as I couldn’t even eat through how tough the meat was. My whole family has eaten their food and ordered desert and I still hadn’t received my steak that I wanted rear. I asked the waitress for assistance and she was rude and blunt and extremely snappy towards me. Will not be going back that’s for sure

Very disappointed - Jamie's italian Covent Garden.
We waited over 30 minutes to get our reserved table. The only information we got from the staff was "10 more minutes". This is unacceptable. The whole point of our reservation was to avoid the wait - why else bother to reserve in advance?!
The food was alright but the bad start of the evening was hard to forget.
I don't think I will come back here again and I will not recommend this restaurant to anyone!

This restaurant was in Oxford and the food was nice and tasty but the service was awful. The wait to be served and then the long wait between courses and trying to get the bill at the end!! Over 1/2 hour to get a bill to leave come on!!
Only one server for 8 tables is definitely not enough. Would I go again?
Absolutely not. Drove me insane all the long waiting.

Last night we went out for a quick meal before a concert at Jamie’s Italian in Liverpool, a busy Satuarday night where so many other places in town were full. We asked the waitress if we could possibly be served quickly as we were running late for the concert, and after ordering two tagliatelle bolognaise, funky chips, two rocket salads and fish in a bag (which was delicious) we received our food and had eaten within 40 minutes of sitting down. The restaurant was heaving and yet the atmosphere was fantastic and although the waiters/waitresses looked rushed off their feet, we received pleasant, friendly service all evening from everyone we spoke to. Overall, we always have a pleasant experience at Jamie’s- especially at the liverpool branch.

Omg Westfield Shepherds Bush ive been there
twice now and the first time the food was terrible..the second chance the food was disgusting ..ughhhh..the worst ever..sad for Jamie cause if he was the chief im sure it would of been Pucker

I love this restaurant! Pasta bolognese is amazing 😉

Our experience at Jamie’s Italian in York turned out to be vastly overpriced for what turned out to mediocre quality small portions. We will not be back.

We tried out the Jamie Italia restaurant in Gunwharf wish we hadn't bothered we both ordered gnocchi and both came out frozen in the middle. FROZEN gnocchi this is meant to be freshly made. its a simple process I have made many a times myself at home was so disappointed to be eating at a celebrity chefs restaurant and find its no better in fact its worse then a huge chain by a nobody.

I went to Jamie Oliver with 5 friends in Glasgow. We spent £200 on drink and lunch and got bill to find 12.5% tip added on which meant £26 they took. This is disgusting as I believe I want to tip what I decide the place deserves. The service was ok but not outstanding, food good, wine expensive. Two girls were pregnant and drinking juice. I will not be returning as there are better restaurants which do not make presumptions. Very greedy jamie

Terrible breakfast on Monday at Jamie's Gatwick. We really should have eaten at our Premier Inn. The menu described it as the full monty with bacon, ect ect and two free-range Lincolnshire sausages. Hmmm delicious I thought. But no, where are the sausages I asked. Those lovely cooked juicy sausages? The waitress pointed at my plate to two thin slices of sausage meat. What a con. Sausages are round about 4 or 5 inches long nice and succulent on the inside and brown and sticky on the outside. Do not be fooled by the menu. It is a con and Jamie should know better than to try this on. Better places to eat than this with proper hearty breakfasts available. Very frustrating and disappointing.

I would give Jamie's on rose street Edinburgh no stars if that was an option , had one of the worst meals of my life there over the weekend , so where to start.........
1.the place was so over packed with tables getting in and out was a challenge .
2. 45 mins wait for a starter , after I waited 20 mins to even place my order
3.when the food finally came the meal was freezing, when I complained after 10 mins waiving for attention , they knocked off the bill for the starter , still left me with my frozen food though .
4. When I asked for my steak to be done medium , I was told the steaks are so thin they don't really have a middle section !
5. The music was so loud it was like having a bad meal in an overcrowded disco where no one was happy to be there .
6. You are crammed in so tight you cannot have a conversation with your partner as everyone can hear you shouting over the music

All in all if your reading this review and thinking about going , don't !
Walk across the road and have a chippy , better service , better atmosphere and better tasting .

I've been to the Westfield Stratford's city site. Great food recipes, but very bad execution. I've got a rotten avocado in my Superfood salad. I believe for £9.95 I deserve at least fresh products, as customer. The service was not really OK, very chaotic, half of our order mixed up, forgotten orders... Honestly, disapointing experience! and it was my birthday dinner :(

We recently ate at the Manchester site and whilst the building and interior is amazing, the experience wasnt.

Poor service with lots of waiting and chasing staff for drinks, then waiting to order food.

4:30pm and to be fair the site was busy but...

Food came, it was okay but portion size verse spend and presentation was disappointing.

Would I visit again, no, unfortunately not....didnt hit the 'spot' which was a shame, the 'experience' just didnt stand out overall. If the food was really good, presentation spot on then that offsets service to degrees when busy but....

Lovely food, great service, cannot fault this. I have taken my Wife here many times since our son moved out of the country. Each time I am dazzled by the menu and the quality of dining. I have yet to meet Jamie Oliver but I do love his take on food and how is is not scared to change the norm. Keep up the good work Jamie.

I am very satsfied with the Jamie's Italian restaurant at Westfield Stratford! Really good food, easy-going service, cozy atmosphere. It was too crowded, though, which took a bit of my pleasure. Anyways, still recommend!

We ate in the London restaurant- terrible service (you become accustomed to this with kids but this was bad) and the food well - where to start cold, wet soggy and greasy and that was just the kids meals. Adults where worse . I wanted to complain but hubby paid bill whilst I was dealing with the kids and didn't get the chance - do not bother here !!

Ive been to jamie's several times - most recently Brighton just before xmas, and last night Bristol. Both times the food has been very very poor. Last night 5 reheated prawns , some tomato sauce and a bit of tough linguine really? and they confused the starter platter - which had off olives on them.Pre xmas - the fish was actually tough! hard to do but they did it - same with the platters- 2015 it was ok but now at such a huge price with poor food there is now way iIl ever agree to go again (work do and conference)
