ALWAYS ASK For TASTER PORTIONS for TASTER SESSIONS This rating is not for Tag Venue as I think the website is great. This rating is for the Ampersand Hotel in South Kensington. Firstly, the pictures show a large-ish room but it was not as large but we decided to press on with the tasting session we booked and if the food was great we might consider it. To my surprise they brought full portions for 4. Given we chose many foods to entertain 40-50 guests, we ended up with a lot of food wasted and at the end I was lumbered with an approx. £300 bill which I paid as the event organiser was not there to discuss. I honestly thought we were going to get taster portions. I also did not realise we would be charged for it. I have had events at Hush/M Restaurants and we had free taster sessions with taster portions so that was my experience. I asked for a refund or to split the bill but was declined. They do not know what it means to give taster portions/sessions and because the food was not all great for us, we decided against the venue but this decision was made on the day not because we were refused a refund.
