Very nice place.I spent weekend in London before dealing with some business on Monday. I was on my own. Wanted to have dinner somewhere nice while watching formula 1 qualifying on Saturday evening.This place has nice atmosphere and staff is lovely.I didn't like bowl of noodles I ordered. It tasted too sweet for me. But I didn't mind to pay for it. They noticed that I didn't eat too much and immediately asked if there was a problem. I said I didn't like it because it's too sweet for me but maybe that's just me being weird and it's OK. I got very nice surprise when I got glass of wine on the house. Very nice gesture! Thank you!

@giraffesnaps |The place| Is funky, colourful and cool 😎We decided to seat indoors but they do have an outdoor seating area. As I walked in I got this vibe, there was great music on and the place was nice with a lot to look at ( bright lights, signs, pictures, decorations ) 😊🧡💙❤️The decoration is colourful, bold, bright and fun 🤩 it’s a very spacious restaurant, that has this warm cosy atmosphere ( we just chilled talked and it felt like we were in our little area with no one there, which was great 😊 although there were people there haha 😂 )Location| 120 Wilton Rd, Pimlico, London SW1V 1JZ 🇬🇧 ( We walked from Victoria station and got a bit lost but found it in the end )Opening hours;Monday to Sunday from 9 am until 10 PMThe Staff| Nice and cheerful, happy to help attitude and some knowledge of the dishes ( which helped me make my choices on the night ) 😊 🧡Food and drinks| Serving great comfort food, brunch, lunch, dinner, drinks and nibbles 😋 🤤 🍔🥩🥗🥙 🍜To eat| For starters we had edamame and it was the first time I had them cooked like that 😍 it’s a must-try for sure if you like veg that is ( eat your greens yall 😅). For mains, we had Thai duck stir fry and Argentinian ribs, very tasty and generous portions ( I ate so much, I was so full after 😂), if you like to eat a lot I recommend these 2 dishes for sure.To drink|We had the passion fruit martinis and spiced punch cocktails (the spiced punch was so much nicer )🍹🍸 🤩Overall| Enjoyable, Good vibes, Comfort Food 🤗😍💯♥️Thank you so much for having us @giraffesnaps ♥️🙏Check out my Instagram @queenzee93 for a full video review 😊

The staff were brilliant and very accommodating, the food was a little overpriced but that’s expected for central London. Ordered the veggie breakfast, it wasn’t particularly anything special but the fantastic service made up for it. Would recommend if you’re in the area

Listen up my guys & gyals (and nonbinarys): Giraffe is above average but below spectacular. Let's start with the vibe.Decor: on point 💅Music: feelin' it 🔥Staff: 10/10 but it's not Manchester (when you know, you know #RealRespectReal 👊)If you can't tell by the tone of this review, the margaritas were STRONG. If these cocktails were people, they'd be Olympic weightlifters, ya feel?Okay, food: we got a cheeseburger & fries. The patties are frozen so you can't get them medium-rare, but the taste was grrrrreat. The salad was so fresh I was tryna get its number. Burger sauce was SAUCY and we loved it.And finally, a spot that knows the value of spicing up their fries. Helloooooo. They salt and peppered them (and some other spice but I'm too Caucasian to know which one 💁♀️).If you're looking for great value with a cool ambience, this is your spot. If you're looking for fine dining, then go elsewhere in Victoria #PoshSpice.

We booked for a family lunch on 8/01/22 as we were going to see Wicked. Seated quickly by friendly staff who arranged colouring for my grandson. We all enjoyed our meals which were served quickly, good portions, good price point and excellent price for the child's meal. Dessert took a little longer to arrive but very tasty. All in all a very good experience. Thank you

I would recommend this restaurant. The menu is extensive and offers lots of variety. The food is tasty and well priced, the portion sizes were on the small side, and the tiny dribble of sauce that came with the pancakes was ridiculous. It might as well not have been there. The staff were friendly, and the restaurant was clean.

Giraffe is a good priced, family dining restaurant with friendly, fast & smiley customer service. My experience dining here was phenomenal. The food was delicious, especially their halloumi sticks! If you are looking for an affordable place to dine that provides you with top quality food, then I would definitely suggest here!

Enjoyed a delicious vegan katsu curry, and an even deliciouser vegan burger. Add to that excellent friendly service from Louisa, and I guess you could say we had a five star night. Thank you so much, we'll be back for more!
