Chelsea Restaurants

12pm reservations on a weekday made for a weird experience when we were the first customers to arrive and EVERYONE said welcome and hello. But soon customers followed and was filled up by the time we left. Maybe a 12:30pm reservation next time. Haha. Anyway, food was spectacular and service impeccable with precision like a fine tuned sports car. I think Mr Ramsey would have been proud of his staff today. Although I would have loved the thrill of him being there and yelling at his kitchen. More

A beautiful and intimate room, tables nicely spaced for privacy whilst still feeling part of the overall environment. Very friendly and welcoming front of house. Food all presented delightfully and tasting delicious with deep flavouring. Lovely canapés, first cod mousse in a light crisp wafer tube, then ham hock and piccalilli dumplings with a drop of dill mayonnaise, were perfect alongside our aperitif, a delicate and elegant Nyetimber rosé. We were then also served a clever and tasty amuse-bouche of a cheese custard topped with iirc a little carrot and a duck jus. Starters were complex with contrasting flavour combinations. I took the "Sea and Earth", five small dishes with interesting pairings such as an oyster accompanied by a couple of tiny (wild?) strawberries, new season asparagus with razor clam, and finely cut squid with truffle (the stand-out flavour pairing afaic). My companion had the Morel, the mushrooms cooked beautifully three ways, with celeriac, with monk's beard and with offal (amazing). Alongside these, a 2017 Condrieu Les Terrasses du Palat from the Northern Rhone was crisp, clean and dry with characteristic viognier aroma, although possibly a couple of years too young to show at its best. We went down the meat route for mains with mutton for me and roe deer for my companion. Both were prepared perfectly, pink and tender, with unusual accompanying elements that delivered on both complementary flavours and contrasting textures. A 2005 Viña Tondonia Reserve from Rioja was rich and silky and I highly recommend it as exceptional value by the glass. For dessert, I chose the spiced pear with ginger and hazelnut, topped with a spiced apple foam, which was joyously indulgent, and my companion had the apple with strawberry and fennel, which looked fabulous and which she declared tasted fabulous as well. A glass of the honeyed 2014 Renaissance Vendanges Tardives from Gaillac set these desserts off a treat. Overall, a memorable meal in a lovely restaurant. More

We were recommended the broccoli pastry, paneer and potato fritter starters and also ordered a guinea fowl biriyani to share. We also had room for dessert (the banana chocolate dessert), which was delicious but very rich. Everything was delicious and we would visit again. More

My sister and I visited The Locals for Brunch over the bank holiday weekend. It was exactly what the doctor ordered. We managed to get a table outside in the sun where we enjoyed probably the best Chai Latte I have ever tasted as well as the Gluten Free Buckwheat and Blueberry pancakes. Slightly slow in the kitchen but the sun was a good distraction. Service was great! All in all a lovely experience. More

OpenTable Diner - 21/04/2019

We were three separate entities and all arrived at different times but this was smoothly accommodated. I was the one on time! When my guest showed displeasure in his glass of wine it was replaced. I had a taste of my random choice, which I was impressed by. All the girl staff members (Valeria was one) were attentive and polite. The food was very good. If only you had proper beer! More

OpenTable Diner - 18/04/2019

So glad I finally came to Buonasera! Honestly one of my favourite Italian restaurants in Chelsea. The staff are incredibly friendly and will make you feel very welcome. The restaurant itself is super quirky. Having the tables upstairs gives you more privacy and that 'cosy' feel. Loved it. I will definitely be coming back for more pizza and pasta! More

OpenTable Diner - 05/04/2019

My gnocchi was not nearly as good as last time, not enough sausage sauce and no mozzarella....totally different experience. My friends cannelloni was so,dry it was like cardboard. I can't believe she ate it. I've never been somewhere so glaringly inconsistent . We had a free mint tea, but really not good enough. I was so embarrassed as I'd been saying how good it was! More

OpenTable Diner - 05/03/2019

Very charming and intimate venue, beautiful cooper bar (great cocktails!) and a big olive tree in the main room. The food was really good especially the duck and the lavender creme brûlée. We had a bit of a miss understanding with our order and ended up having to wait for one of our main courses but the staff was excellent in solving the issue and we eventually enjoyed our dinner throughout the evening. Good wine selection too. Amazing pissaladiere as amuse bouche !! Only downside : the main room and tables are a little too dark in my opinion! More

OpenTable Diner - 12/04/2019

A great chef led dining experience By some distance the best Italian in Chelsea Worth the investment More

OpenTable Diner - 14/02/2019

Service delightful without exception, including in the neighbouring bar. Everyone very nice, though champagne and menus could have come 2 minutes sooner if I were being fussy. Palate cleanser deserves a special mention as it avoided the sharpness or excess sweetness one often gets but was gentle and charming in its own right. Cod main course- flaky and perfectly done, moist. Lobster starter a picture and my wife liked it very much. Puddings also sophisticated in terms of avoiding excess but with plenty of flavour and cleanse to them. Wine list decent but could add some more choices in Burgundy and Bordeaux; wines from the USA featured well and we were very happy with our's from Oregon. The room is very pleasant, chairs very comfortable. A table of 6 men arrived half way through our dinner, at the other side of the room, which could have been loud but just avoided it, something for the restaurant to consider whether they allow that size of table. Managed to avoid "restaurant in a hotel" atmosphere; we enjoyed- £350 for 2 including £115 for one bottle of red; 2 glasses of champage at £20 each on top. More

OpenTable Diner - 18/04/2019

Absolutely fantastic meal. Great quality steak, probably the best I've ever had! Great quality wine as well. I thought £200 for two people was quite reasonable. Only downside was the chairs were incredibly uncomfortable, difficult to relax as constantly having to adjust your position. More

OpenTable Diner - 05/04/2019

The staff were very accommodating to our request for an extra chair for an unexpected guest. The restaurant was busy and , consequently the service was quite slow. We were not in a hurry but if we had been, the wait for food and drinks might have been annoying. The food was very good and there was a buzzy atmosphere. More

OpenTable Diner - 24/03/2019

Really enjoyed our evening here. The people who run this place are outstanding hosts. The place is lovely to spend an evening chatting, not too busy or too loud, and the food is good. My only quibble is that the jug of Margarita seems very expensive at £35. More

OpenTable Diner - 30/03/2019

THE 2 male staff were so lovely & welcomed me . i had a great seat and wasnt too noisy More

OpenTable Diner - 18/03/2019

Stunning building- food was really good will defo be booking to go back maybe for dinner next time. The only little thing I'd say that needs a brush up is the communication between staff as one person said they do a dairy free afternoon tea then the other told us they don't. However they did it as dairy free as possible! So thank you Bluebird for a lovely Sunday afternoon tea! We shall see you soon! More
