Living in the E16 area I was keen to visit the Docklands Bar and Grill. I decided to visit on a beautiful sunny Sunday with my parents. We chose to sit outside as the seating was well positioned for the views of Victoria Dock, the 02 and Canary Wharf. The waiter was very friendly and welcoming and the service throughout was excellent. I chose the Fresh tuna Niçoise, my mother the Prawn, chicken & aniseed with cherry tomatoes and my father the Calf's liver, mash & crispy sage. The big difference I noticed with this restaurant was its ingredients. Everything we ordered tasted fresh and of good quality produce. The salads were lovely and crunchy and the tuna was cooked to perfection. My parents also said the same for their food. We spent a long slow afternoon eating and drinking and never at any point felt rushed or hounded. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a warm and relaxed atmosphere with a unique location of water and stunning views. I can’t wait to return when they start their live jazz brunch on Sundays.

I took the wife and kids here to celebrate my wife's promotion and I couldn't of picked a better location.

Our table had a wonderful view of the Royal Victoria Dock as well as the O2 Dome and Canary Wharf which were lit up beautifully. The staff were friendly and got on really well with our two young boys; it was a real plus that they made us feel welcome and at home.

The food was very nice too, the kids ordered fish chips from the kids menu which was all made from fresh ingredients and didn't look greasy or unhealthy at all. I ordered the lamb cutlets with rosemary potatoes and tomatoes which were delicious, the lamb was tender and almost melted in the mouth and the potatoes were superb. My wife was equally pleased with her roast cod garnished with garlic, bacon, herbs and green beans. The kids ordered ice cream and sorbets for their desert which they absolutely loved and I suspect the staff gave the kids extra large helpings of sorbet.

In total, our bill came to around £70 which I felt was fair for a family of four, a good bottle of wine and great service. We all had a fabulous evening and it certainly is a restaurant that we will be returning to.
