Un cadre somptueux dans un hôtel très élégant qui garde une touche traditionnelle et royal. Une carte qui touche énormément a la cuisine française. Des produits de haute qualité et une technique d'éxecution de équipe Darroze a admiré.

Un service qui n'est pas à la hauteur d'un restaurant gastronomique/Michelin.

Exquisite service for this two star Michelin restaurant. I have been disappointed by the service in other London Michelin starred restaurants. Here the waiters were attentive without being intrusive. The (very expensive) wines which were suggested went perfectly with the dishes. Hilarioulsy my main dish was called "Bouef d'Angus" - I am not sure the Scots would appreciate this. The curried scallop starter was at first taste surpising, but then convincingly tasty. The cheese selection exceptional.

Too pricey, but then again, it is London. I would suggest sticking to the set menu, unless you are feeling rather flush.

absolutely delicious, beautiful table settings, great wines. Virginie Gaumont at the door got us a table at the last minute and introduced us to Helene! Really adorable.

unnecessarily snotty wine service, too much food on the 'signature' menu...couldn't add cheese or dessert!

Pretentious overpriced "International Cuisine" in a soul-less hotel-dining room with bright lighting and bad decoration. Empty.

The quality of the food is good and the service is attentive and friendly.
