This is one of London’s most exquisite dining experiences. The setting is modern, elegant and stately. Celebrities are seen here regularly.
But it’s the service that is absolutely flawless. From the wait staff at the entrance of the restaurant to the waiters and sommelier, staff here are the best in their field.
We loved the sommelier who was happy to give us multiple tastings of wine and to tantalise us with her enormous global wine knowledge.
The food here is exceptional. We were there on a hot June evening so the yellow tail, truffle ponzu, pickled wasabi and ginger was the perfect starter: the flavours are an incredible blend of fresh, citrus and smooth.
The big eye yellowfin tuna tartare was also super fresh, clean and a delicious dish.
The bread selection was a course in itself-bread was served on a board, plus bread bites in a basket. And premium butters to enjoy as welll.
We had to have steaks for our main, and selected an American and a UK rib eye to compare the flavours. I loved seeing the meats pre aged at the table. Something elegantly old fashioned about that tradition. There were more than 12 sides, and the bone marrow was out of this world. A whole bowl of marrow!
The steaks were extraordinary and perfect to cooked, presented and dare I say, CUT :)
The sides of salad, spinach, potatoes and more were amazing too. It was a huge and decadent meal, but wonderful.
The dark chocolate soufflé is heavenly, as is the banana cream pie.
We absolutely loved this dining experience and did not want it to end.
