    Amazing food and service. We notified Primeur that we were coeliac in advance and the gluten free substitutions were extremely well considered. Thanks to the team for an incredible evening.

    I had wanted to go to primeur for a while and I'm sad I didn't go sooner. The service was exceptional. The food was exceptional. This is honestly is one of the best places to eat in London.

    Every member of my strange and hard-to-please family were thrilled with our celebration meal at Primeur; the foodies and the fussy eaters, the veggies and the carnivores, the hip and the hip-allergic. The service was attentive, friendly and patient. The food was exceptionally good throughout, and the no-choice sharing menu was perfectly balanced for a mixed group. The private room is a lovely space.

    We got in a bit late vs our booking but the staff was lovely and very accommodating. We ordered 4 sharing plates, wine and one dessert to share. That's actually a lot of food. Everything was very well prepared and presented. All dishes were excellent except maybe one which was just good but nothing exceptional (confit duck with a salad). Overall a great and very enjoyable experience, it is a very special place.

    Cozy if you like sitting close to random people, excellent food. We tasted different red wines and unfortunately did not like any of the 3 selected. £3 for 2 small extra pieces of bread seems petty and unnecessary for a restaurant in this price category.

    Was recommended by loads of people. Awesome vibe, great negronis, staff were excellent. Thought the food was pretty standard, but feel like if I ate meat and fish it would probably been excellent. The Fourme D’Ambert was incredible and the best olives I’ve ever had.

    My friends recomended me the restaurant and all food was more delicious than people say! I also loved the vibes especially toilet in the basement and the idea of writing name on the counter table were so lovely! Their taste of furnishing and making wonderful atmosphere is surprisingly good too! I will definitely visit again when a special occasion.

    I first came a year or two ago, and was very much impressed by the nature of the food. Since then, I have been dying to come back. Having returned on Friday, I'm again impressed by the simplicity but quality of the food. The menu expressed a variety of food complemented by its expression in its sauces and side dishes. There was no puffery involved. This however did come at a slightly hefty price - but worth it, nevertheless. A great experience overall.

    Service was amazing, had drinks and food in front of us efficiently, front of house staff were all very nice and doing the absolute most! Food was so delicious from top to bottom! The house white wine was so good and overall everything was very well priced. We were sitting facing the wall but the mirrored wall makes it feel super open and spacious. The place is designed super well simple and effective! We were big fans and will be back!

    Had a lovely anniversary dinner with my wife at Primeur. What's not to love about this restaurant? Great service in a really inviting and interesting location (it's kind of all one large space). Food varied and delicious, as always. The pasta was our favourite dish, although the plum and mascarpone came close on that front. A great evening. I would highly recommend.

    There is a good selection of food. We tasted most items on the menu and everything was high quality and well prepared and presented. The service was excellent and we were dealt with efficiently and in a friendly manner. The atmosphere is lively and casual. It wasn't overcrowded. The dishes were brought with a good cadence which allowed us ample time to eat each dish without them piling up on the table. The wine was generally very good and there was a good variety. The price was reasonable in the context of the quality of food and the general ambience.
