First I must commend the wonderful and welcoming staff. Throughout our visit they were cheerful, committed and efficient. The atmosphere was one of calm and efficiency. The location in Grosvenor Square a short walk from Bond St Elizabeth line, is lovely. The food was very good, especially the vegetable. My spiced cauliflower starter was great and looked great; a stacked pyramid of florets. Fish a little overdone for my liking, but tasty and sitting on beautifully buttered leeks. Gordon Ramsay branded places get patchy reviews — their people could learn a lot from this Mayfair Bar & Grill.

    An unforgettable birthday lunch! Warm, welcoming staff made us feel completely comfortable with our children. The beef Wellington and gravy were the best we’ve tasted, and the coconut dessert was incredible. Singing happy birthday with a candlelit dessert was a lovely touch. Exceeded expectations - we can’t wait to return!
