The view from the shard was wonderful but the marco pierre whites restaurant experience was awful! It was actually The london steak house in middlesex street around the corner from Liverpool street. Arrived on time for our meal at 5. 15 and was told to wait at the bar ( the bar was tiny ) which was a small area. We was squashed up with many other people waiting for their tables. There was no apologies or a complimentary drink. At 5.40 we was shown to our table. No pleasantries from the waiter. 5.55 they take our drink orders by this time we was parched. We also asked for water which was poured from a bottle that was only a third full ( I have never been to a restaurant where a full bottle of water was not given ) I did not drink it as this could of been left by another dinner. Whilst eating my main meal a waiter walked past almost dragging a big bin of empty bottles through the restaurant to dispose of I suppose, twice this happened. This was by no means a marco pierre white experience! Very dissatisfied
