What User likes about Lady Helen:
This restaurant is exceptional. It is the best Michelin-starred restaurant we have ever been to. The service was amazing, which made the experience even better. Unfortunately, we had to leave early due to government restrictions, as we were not staying at Mount Juliet. However, we are definitely planning to come back and stay next time. View all feedback. What User doesn't like about Lady Helen:
The atmosphere of the restaurant felt like a nursing home. The wine selection was excellent and the veal dish was delicious. The desserts were beautiful. The Foie-Gras was disappointing. Overall, the bread was also very tasty. View all feedback.
