Wonderful period British architecture, old world courteous service. Delicious food a great place for first timers in London who want to experience a slice of history. Staff are also wonderful true silver service with Beatrice Tolleson's recipes and even the family's own wines from their private estate in the Wineland area of South Africa. View all feedback.

Old English hotel vibe, white table cloths, attentive though ultimately suffocating service. Atmosphere a bit painful, quiet, stuffy, uncomfortable. Appetizers were great, steak was dreadful. Thin and badly cooked. I sent it back and got a duplicate of the poor quality. They graciously comped it and we made a hasty exit vowing never to return.
Superb... lovely lunch and location.. service great
Three stunning Victorian townhouses were transformed into a hotel in 1922, and have recently been restored to impeccable standards. The beautifully decorated restaurant, with soft lighting, is located at the back of the ground floor. The background music consists of classic Jazz Age tunes. The raviolo was a bit tough, the chicken pot pie was too watery, and the millefeuille was presented perfectly but was difficult to eat without a knife. The service was haughty and slow, and the prices were incredibly high. The other diners were all American hotel guests. Overall, the experience was not unpleasant, but slightly unusual and very expensive.
The experience was absolutely fantastic. Everything was impeccable.
The service, ambiance, and design of this restaurant are exceptional. The tasting menu surpassed all expectations.
