Wiltons

Superb as ever.
Tradition and style

We have dined at Wiltons for over a decade. Our most recent meal was exceptional from
start to finish. We could easily dine here each night of our stay. The smoked salmon,
the soups, fish and lamb were perfect. It is a busy kitchen, but we given time to enjoy
our dinner without staff looking at the clock. The bar staff, the wait staff, etc. I needed
a non-dairy emphasis, and my dishes were seasoned and finished with care.

Kind courteous attentive friendly team gave us the most lovely time anyone could wish for. As ever, the food was delicious. Langoustines, eel, lamb etc all of the very best quality and cooked to absolute perfection

Our first visit to Wiltons, a very nice restaurant, very good service, and the staff were very attentive. Very nice food, prepared and served well. A very good evening.

The food was average. The ambiance ok. But the service left a lot to be desired. There was a constant feeling of being rushed.
Worst of all was the way the sommelier asked my guest what she would like to drink. Instead of a general question, she asked if my guest wanted a glass of champagne or a kir royale. Such up-selling is tiresome and puts the host in an awkward situation and the guest who had only just arrived, being forced to chose one or the other.
Please stop this practice. And when you have, let me know and I may return. Otherwise I won’t.

We had a spectacular dining experience to celebrate our week in London. I highly recommend this restaurant if you are looking for outstanding seafood and excellent service.

Very good as usual
But as a regular would have appreciated to have a nicer table

Perfect. Best British food Restaurant

Old England elegance

Wilton’s is extraordinary. It provides the very best time after time. The best ingredients, cooked with apparent simplicity & ease, to produce the most delicious food.
Swift, friendly service from a team of knowledgeable staff who are keen to ensure every customer has a great experience.
Good seating, lighting and acoustics- sadly often lacking in many other establishments that consider themselves equal.
A proper restaurant for those who appreciate the best

Food was dreadful but a lovely place. Staff were attentive

The food and service were both fantastic. I think this was one of the best meal experiences I have had in a very long time. I can’t wait to go back!

Perfect venue for lunch in Jermyn Street. The carving trolley is a highlight.

Amazing service and dinner - we had a wonderful time on our anniversary

Just outstanding food and service. Wonderful ambiance!

We had a most enjoyable lunch.The atmosphere was relaxed and our table was in an area where you could talk without having to raise your voice, which for me is important. The service was good and so was the food. We particularly liked the cheese soufle and the desert which was delicious. Tha main course was OK, but not exceptional.

Fine dining at it's very best. We never eaten at such an elegant restaurant.

I have already reviewed Wilton’s recently, and can confirm that this is a quality restaurant with understated class.

Exceptional food. Impeccable service. Everything you would expect from a London institution.

wilton’s staff and food are the epitome of excellence. simply the best restaurant for classic European food. It never fails to reward. the experience is always enjoyable and fun.

Disappointing – off the list
At Wilton’s again to host a friend from the US for lunch. All seemed to go well at first, a bright, breezy reception, a nice booth (albeit very close to another table) and seemingly interested staff.
But the process was not relaxed with some urgency from the staff to get orders in, particularly drinks. It felt a little like a fast food outlet. The first course was unremarkable – my smoked salmon was thin to the point of transparency.
The main course was poor. A “medium” filet steak came almost well done. The lead waiter acknowledged this and suggested starting both meals all over again. My guest had started his Dover sole, but we reluctantly accepted the solution and the inevitable delay.
The replacement steak was little better. Yes, it was no longer well done, but clearly the quality of the meat was not the best. At this point I was more concerned to enjoy the conversation with my visiting friend than have further negotiations.
The flow of the meal had been ruined and it over-ran. My guest had to leave for another appointment, and I remained to pay the bill. There was no one “on duty” as I left the table – in fact there were no staff visible except the coat assistant and a junior barman who was bantering with her. It was like leaving a deserted ship.
It’s a shame that Wilton’s has lost its edge – the meal was a disappointment, the service rushed and anxious – not the professional, relaxed atmosphere of a supposedly leading restaurant.
I appreciate that the Wilton’s brand is heavily marketed, but the reality is that it does not deliver at its price point; I would hate visitors to London to be disappointed. Also, some of the tables are very close together.
Wilton’s is now off my list of London restaurants for now and I would recommend others to look elsewhere.

Great food as usual but given a very poor table in the restaurant corridor. Was moved to a different table but again a very cramped position.

Wilton's is just wonderful - such a class act on all levels.

We were greeted by a warm and welcoming gentleman who took care of our coats in a very professional manner.
The food quality is very high, and the wine list excellent.
There were no scallops on that night, which came as a surprise for such an reputable seafood restaurant. Overall the service was perfect, with the notable exception of our main waiter, whose slightly aggressive tone and manners was totally out of place in such an environment.

Nice restaurant on Jermyn street. Typical English food and service- a good thing, with subdued noise. The food was excellent as was the service.

An absolute gem of a restaurant for great food and wonderful personal service.

Excellent food and service. Expensive, but well worth the money.

It’s a wholly civilised and cultured experience. The servers are appropriately attentive and amenable.
It’s also reassuringly expensive and worth every penny.

Outstanding. My favourite restaurant in London. We will be back. Thank you.

Was pleasantly surprised seeing that most restaurant’s customers respected a dress-code. A quality place to invite business partners or family and friends to. Not cheap but this brings certain clientele. The only thing missing for me was no music. Some quiet relaxed jazz (Marc Johnson, for example) at the background would be nice and suitable for this venue. Food was delicious and they have a good choice of wines.

Wilton's is always a pleasure to dine with. Their service, food and atmosphere is impeccable.

Service that went above and beyond, lovely wait staff, fab food, all served with old school charm and flair! We had a great night, it was my first visit and it certainly won’t be the last...thank you!

If I had to dine at just one restaurant anywhere in the world for ever more it would be Wiltons.

This is just a fun place to eat, if you are looking for an old-school experience. Great staff, good food and beautiful restaurant. We really enjoyed ourselves.

Thoroughly enjoyed the evening! Will recommend to anyone!

The beef Wellington and Dover sole were truly special and the service outstanding. A memorable dining experience.

The best restaurant in London without question. Impeccable service in the best tradition, only possible in an establishment owned by bankers who presumably don't expect it to be a major profit centre.

Very nice evening in a restaurant that makes you feel part of history: 277 years. Hopefully many years still to come. Btw great food, attentive staff, nice wine.

Wilton’s is THE British restaurant. The service and food are terrific and it’s always nice to be dining where everyone dresses properly

Great food and atmosphere! Really love this place!
