They used to be quite good – you would get better/the best tables at some restaurants in London and 2-3 times the agents were able to get me tables when there were otherwise none available, however my recent (post COVID) experiences have been incredibly disappointing in comparison.
There was also two ‘formal’ schemes operating, the Global Dining Collection, where you would receive a small treat for booking through Amex e.g. a welcome drink or complimentary appetiser, and also a UK/London based programme that offered dining discounts and similar treats on a different list of restaurants, however I’m not really sure what has happened to either of these sadly.
