"A group of eight of us had an evening meal there during a two-day conference held at the nearby O2 arena. We were almost the only diners which I found unusual but it was a Wednesday evening, perhaps not peak time. Service As you might expect, given that there was almost nobody else in the restaurant, service was brilliant. The maitre d’ was very attentive and he obviously cared for the reputation of the restaurant as he rejected two bottles of wine having opened them and before we tasted them. Food quality I was disappointed with the quality given the star rating of the hotel in which this is based. This is not to say that the food was bad. My bruschetta had three styles, not simply the tomatoes and garlic on toast, and tasted very nice. My seafood risotto tasted fine and had quite a variety of ‘frutti di mare’ but the squid within it was, however, rubbery. Others who had the calamari starter also complained of rubbery texture. I know that this can be tricky but the star rating would ordinarily indicate that they could cook it correctly. Others complained of bits of shell in their food. Food quantity Being a northerner, I was quite pleasantly surprised by the quantity. I was expecting to have to use a telescope and tweezers but my knife and fork were quite suited to the task. Wine The maitre d’ had an extensive knowledge of the restaurant’s wine cellar and was able to make quite excellent recommendations having ascertained our preferences. The quality was good, as you would expect. Overall When you go to a restaurant and you encounter lots of locals, this is usually a good sign. We did indeed encounter one local who clearly enjoyed coming here, but this was of the four-legged murine variety. Given the proximity to the river, I’m pleased it wasn’t a rat. I might have said something had ‘Roland’ wandered past, but we left the mouse alone. Would I recommend it? Probably not. The conference was at the nearby Intercontinental and the food we had there was better, notwithstanding that they were catering for 1500+ people. I have no frame of reference to compare Quadrato with other nearby restaurants but I would almost certainly choose to eat elsewhere."
