Wonderful place! The ambiance, food, portions, service, the view!!! We will be making it our regular restaurant for an evening out.

Deb 29 December 2011 From London

A London dining landmark for over 30 years, R.S. Hispaniola restaurant ship gives diners classic elegance on the River Thames. Moored at Victoria Embankment, stunning river views are offered on the sun terraces and upper deck bar.

Effortlessly romantic, the R.S. Hispaniola restaurant sits just across from the London Eye, and benefits from the sparkle of its lights on the water. Al fresco dining on deck in the warmer months is perfect for enjoying one of the many Spanish wines on offer, and R.S. Hispaniola London also serves a popular afternoon tea menu.

Modern European cuisine with Mediterranean twists feature on the R.S. Hispaniola menu. Bold flavour and texture combinations feature in dishes like oven-cooked beef fillet with melted Stilton and red wine jelly. Fresh seafood options are also available, like roast whole sea bass with a warm basil and tomato vinaigrette.

The R.S. Hispaniola offers romance and spectacle, just 5 minutes’ walk from Charing Cross Rail Station.

Valentines Night

By Valentine Rose

Comments about this restaurant :

Valentines Day was superb. A wonderful ship with everything pretty much perfect, and amazing food. beautifully cooked and presented. The staff were excellent too. Our only problem was that we arrived at 7pm and they wanted us upstairs which was difficult with a gent of 96 in a wheelchair, but the staff soon sorted that and gave us a downstairs table, no problem. The pianist was a really nice touch and we did not feel out of place being the only "very old" folk there!
We will be back as soon as we can.

Relaxed dining and friendly service

By Loznliz

Pros

Best Uses

Comments about this restaurant :

We chose the Hispaniola because of the unusual venue, a restaurant boat on the Thames located near the embankment. It was not at all busy late on Saturday afternoon, the waiter made us feel very welcome and the staff provided friendly and attentive service. I ordered chicken, followed by sticky toffee pudding which was nicely presented and delicious. We enjoyed the views over the river to the South Bank and as a lunch venue it provided a welcome and relaxing break between shopping and the theatre. I would recommend this restaurant.

A great dining experience

Comments about this restaurant :

A great dining experience in a lovely location. Good food and wine accompanied by great service and the mild 'thump' (against the moorings) and soft rocking of the ship, to remind you that you are on a ship! An experience I'd like to repeat and that I highly recommend.
