For 32 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).

Cambio de Tercio Restaurant Diner Reviews
"We are familiar with the Cambio and its two sister establishment nearby. We tend to take its excellence for granted but some of the food offerings, like some of the Japanese inspired “new” tapas, are disappointing and a member of our party (who has been a regular from the first day of its opening years back) went to the boss and admonished him. Also the large numbers of staff rushing around furiously create a nuisance rather than a classy atmosphere. "
