Daphne's - London

We've made an astonishing scientific breakthrough, dear readers. Yes, that's right, your friends at The Prodigal Guide while stumbling around life's frivolous sidelines, drunk and mostly disorderly have chanced upon an, as yet, undiscovered certainly

During my four day trip to London my first restaurant visit was to “Daphne’s” of whose reputation I had heard . No need to say, we had booked a table in advance knowing that going there without a reservation was out of the question. My experience there proved to go far beyond my expectations! With exquisite dishes within a romantic atmosphere, my friends and I had a splendid evening . “Daphne’s” is an elite, ritzy restaurant in London’s South Kensington district. With its soft caramel coloured diffused lighting and chic ambiance it is one of the haunts of many celebrities. The highlight feature of this place is naturally the dishes it serves. The highly professionel staff serve the most appetizing , sumptuous and exotic dishes of classic Italian cuisine in an overwhelming ambiance. All the dishes are top class quality: the pizzas, both the classic and covered types prepared in front of us, spaghetti dishes, risotto types and the fried courgette sticks dipped in Parmesan cheese a dish I never had enough of , they are all to die for. But before tasting these heavenly dishes, my humble recommendation is to order one of the sea food appetizers. Especially the Ravioli with crayfish and courgette is well known. The wines are selected to go with the dishes served. The prices are reasonable compared to the dishes. “Daphne’s” is a restaurant with a unique romantic atmosphere where you can be sure to taste most savoury and mouthwatering dishes and have a delightful time . It ‘s enchanting ambiance is almost thrilling. “Daphne’s” is located at Bromton Cross, between Chelsa and South Kensington. Its location is ideal for having lunch after a visit to Royal Albert Hall, Science Museum, Natural Museum, Royal Court or after shopping at Knightsbridge and Kings Road.

I can't really find fault in this place; being picky, I'd say the menu is quite small and not very veggie friendly.On a Friday night, we were able to get a table for two and enjoy some fantastic, whacky cocktails whilst listening to a live pianist (although where he was hiding, I've no idea! . The service really hit a good level of attentive without being interfering; we were brought a basket of interesting breads, as well as a gluten free basket when asked. The menu is largely meat and fish-based, with some novelties such as St Daniele and a selection of truffle dishes.The ambience is lovely; it feels warm and homely, with old-fashioned décor, marble tables and dim lighting. Clientele consist of older (cute? couples and families who are comfortable with each other, but still have enough money to splash out on a jolly good dinner together.Our waiter was charming and extremely concerned with how much we enjoyed our meal, to the point I was worried he might break out into a cold sweat.We skipped appetisers and went straight for chicken Milanese with a well-dressed rocket salad, and some absolutely beautiful venison with a perfectly pink middle and served alongside creamy pesto mash- divine. The side of broccoli was pretty average, and the zucchini fries- deepfried but the healthier option to chips, were novel and moreish.We didn't look at the dessert menu but this is a great restaurant with a sense of grandeur that would be a highly suitable date location, if a little bit of an investment.I would say that you would be looking at around £50 per person for drinks, starter and main. It ain't cheap and it definitely doesn't feel it.

I 'm a big fan. Very good food and nice atmosphere, particularly in summer as the doors are open and you get a nice breeze into the restaurant feels like the 'good life ' a European gettaway in London. I had the lunch menu once which was great value too around £20 for 3 courses well worth it!

Eating at Daphne’s is always a memorable occasion. We have enjoyed everything that we have ordered thus far. We definitely recommend the Spaghetti all’ Astice and the Ravioli di Mozzarella for the mains. And definitely end the meal with the best tiramisu in London.
