We recently visited this restaurant with two groups of 50 people on separate days. We were pleasantly surprised by the modern building and the high standard of cleanliness. It was clear that the restaurant takes great care in food production. Our visit was the first coach party since the COVID lockdown, and we were impressed by the detailed storytelling provided by the business leader. We were provided with suitable coverings for our clothing, head, feet, and masks before we were taken to the factory floor for a demonstration on how old fish is cut. After the demonstration, we returned to the restaurant and enjoyed a delicious two-course meal, including the best smoked salmon we have ever ta...
As an Italian who loves good fish cuisine, it can be challenging to find satisfaction when dining abroad. However, this restaurant, which originally only specialized in manufacturing smoked salmon, proved to be a delightful find. Nestled on the first floor with a scenic view of the river, the restaurant offers a cozy atmosphere with ample space between tables for private conversations. I particularly enjoyed the appetizer featuring various smoked salmon bites prepared in different ways, while my son relished the cooked salmon dish. The menu also includes meat dishes, which I believe are prepared with the same attention to detail as the fish. The waitstaff's friendliness added to the overall...
I love this restaurant: it's spacious, quiet and the food is always delicious. I was lucky to visit just before the lockdown and i can't wait to return once the situation is back to normal: the restaurant is spacious, they don't cram people in like...so many other restaurants in London, so I would feel comfortable visiting again. They don't play loud music so it's the ideal venue to catch up with people and you can hear each other talk. Yes, I really can't wait to be back. But in the meantime, we have been able to celebrate special occasions during lockdown with the food delivery service. Thank you for indulging us when there was nowhere to go!

It’s a few years since we had the most magnificent meal at Forman’s (2012 to be precise) and we had the most magnificent view of the Olympic stadium while the Para-Olympics were being held. Gorgeous meal of many small but exquisite courses. Seeing the salmon...being cured was an added interest.
the first of the open days since covid began. lance forman was excellent and really bought his family company to live. wrap up warm, it's cold in food! the guy who showed us how to cut laughs?. was a real card big 3 hours and good price. do it!
This is not a review about the restaurant but about the smoked salmon fabulous not too smokey, not too oily delicious. Went to Forman’s on a salmon carving class gifted to us by a friend my word. An absolutely superb course.
Thoroughly enjoyed the briefing and demonstration given on the smokehouse. Learned a lot of most interesting facts that I will put into practice when shopping for smoked salmon in the future. It was a real fun evening. Book a table now
The smoked salmon at Forman's Smokehouse is truly exceptional. The tour of the smokehouse is both informative and captivating, and the staff are lovely. I highly recommend booking a tour at Forman's Smokehouse.
Another wonderful meal, with a phenomenal view over the Olympic Park. Food is fab, staff outstanding. If you haven’t you must!!
