About Thyme in City of London, Westminster

Sadly I took a close business associate to this restaurant on the recommendation of Trip Advisor We had travelled all day from different cities to different hotels to meet at the About Thyme Restaurant it was very closed and so far we have been told it has been that way for many months May I suggest that TA keeps their records up to date as with most technology it is driven by humans and is only as good as the information that is put in This was a very expensive mistake Obviously in future I will always check that TA is accurate I have always enjoyed TA and intend doing so in the future but please update your records

A lovely and cozy tapas restaurant in Pimlico. Everything we ordered was delicious, and their wine menu had a surprisingly good spread of choices. What really stood out was the quality of the service, it seemed like the employees genuinely enjoyed working there and wanted to make the dining experience as pleasant as possible. The atmosphere also really stuck out to me. Like I said, cozy, and just a great place to relax for a quiet night out or for a date night.

Très bon restaurant, les serveurs sont sympathiques, les tapas étaient excellentes, le vin très bon (il nous a été conseillé par le serveur). Le seul bémol, c’est que j’ai trouvé ça un peu cher. Nous avons payé 120£ à deux, avec 5 assiettes de tapas et une bouteille à 38,5£ (le premier prix était de 36£).

Welcoming and friendly staff. The atmosphere was warm, and the food was excellent. We had the leg of lamb and the black angus fillet steak, and we will highly recommend both dishes. We hope to go back the next time we visit London.

Such a gem! We had real good Rioja and Ribero del Duero wines, paired with brilliant tapas. Everything was simply perfect. And for UK circumstances the service was super fast. It felt a bit like Asia..

A great tapas place. The food was excellent, tasty with quality ingredients. The service was friendly and helpful. One of us has a gluten allergy. The staff made the best they could to keep us informed on the available options and updated us on any changes. Atmosphere was just right, nice music at the right volume that let us have a pleasant conversation. I would visit this place again. Photo of the dessert cheesecake, which was amazing. We were too hungry and didn't get any photos of the tapas.

A gem of a place: able to have conversation and hear each other and really tasty food

Nice to meet you! A close, attentive, pleasant and very professional service. Always making sure you don't miss anything. The place is very nice, with a simple and classic decoration but with very good taste, I was very comfortable. The food was delicious! It has some typical Spanish dishes that for me was like ordering it at home. The desserts took me back to childhood. 100% recommended experience. Plus they have some great wines!

Beautiful restaurant great food and service !

Great neighborhood restaurant. Excellent wine selection, great, cozy atmosphere, very friendly staff; food was good.

Fantastic meal. Service was great. Definitely recommend.

Great night with 8 work colleagues. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff Mario and Joas who provided fantastic service! We chose the chefs choice tapas. Highly recommended!

Vraiment très bon ! N’hésitez pas une seconde et allez y. L’accueil est top, chaleureux et sympathique. Les plats ont beaucoup de goût, et les portions sont généreuses. Nous avons passé un très bon moment !

Petit restaurant près de Belgrave road. Ambiance cocooning parfait pour une soirée en amoureux. La nourriture est excellente et le service impeccable

Super delicious tapas and great service

Sehr nettes Restaurant, spanisch geprägtes Essen.

Absolutely delicious food! Every meal was stunning - simple ingredients, combined with skill and joy. The person who served me was fantastic and gave great support and advice on gluten and dairy free options and adaptations. Cosy, relaxed place. Had 2 tapas and a dessert. Highly recommend.

Nach der Harry Potter Tour wollten wir am Abend in der Nähe von Victoria Station was essen. Gibt ja sehr viel Auswahl dort in der Gegend. Haben uns für Tapas entschieden. Essen und Trinken war sehr gut. Personal ist freundlich. Mit dem ÖV auch gut erreichbar.

Food was good and the service was great. Went with a group and everyone else was happy. I had the sea bass very good.

Een erg leuk en knus restaurant. De service is met een glimlach en erg goed. Het eten wat ze serveren is uitstekend. Goede porties en vers.

La cuisine était excellente et les plats très raffinés. Service rapide et aimable, je recommande !

La cuisine était excellente et les plats très raffinés. Nous avons pris plusieurs tapas. Service rapide et aimable, je recommande!

Zeer goed. Perfecte service. Black angus zeer goed bereid 👌 Vis ook echt geweldig 👍 Komen zeker terug en het is een aanbeveling.

This was a great found in the south London! From the outside it looks like the restaurant is quite posh and pretentious - but inside, it awaits you a really warm welcome and very relaxed atmosphere. There was a really well balanced professional level of service coupled with the personable, friendly, and attentive service throughout the evening, all the staff were working together to bring you the very comforting service - even to the holding of the door when we were leaving the restaurant. Now onto the food.. amazing. Courgette carpaccio, fresh and light (probably better to use slightly sharper manchego) perfect to start. Yummy and perfectly cooked scallops and Gambas.. wished we ordered bread to soak up all the garlicky and chilly oil.. Duck tataki.. perfectly seasoned perfectly cooked and well balanced flavours.. onto the main wild mushroom risotto with generous amount of mushrooms, shimeji, shiitake, girolle, topped with cheese - the dream dish, and the main course duck, again perfectly seasoned and served properly med rare. We were full but we had to try the desserts .. desserts were desserts :) Overall, wonderful visit, and this is on our very short list of restaurants that we’ll come back again soon.

Lovely restaurant with a lot of delicious choices. I made a reservation saying it was personal celebration and they offered a free glass of bubbly upon arrival for a wonderful personal touch. Restaurant is small and not noisy, very nice for personal service and no fuss!

Amazing all I can say a must try for anyone in the area

We visited last night following all the excellent reviews on Tripadvisor. I asked for a window table and we couldn't have been happier. A beautiful table in the open window on a rare balmy London evening - perfect. Service was first class and the Albarino wine was very drinkable. We ordered a range of tapas from Chorizo, Chicken skewers, lovely tomato garlic bread, garlic prawns, croquettes etc and all were delicious and a perfect amount to share. The only slight disappointment was the meatballs tapas that were a little bland. We had a lovely evening and I can see what all the 5* reviews are about. I would happily return.

Excellent quality and fine food with amazing service. Prices are really good.

Outstanding meal. My wife is Celiac and the staff went out of their way to assist us

Fantastic. Delicious food and with staff that could deal with a coeliac. If I was staying longer in London I would go again. I forgot to take my phone otherwise a picture would be attached. Yum yum.

We were in Pimlico for the weekend and booked About Thyme as we liked the look of the Tapas menu. We arrived 15 minutes early and were welcomed by the friendly staff and shown to our table. The restaurant was busy and had a nice vibe. We ordered our drinks whilst looking through the menu. The menu had a good selection of dishes, which should cater to most tastes. We opted for 5 tapas dishes. This we were informed would probably be enough for two. The dishes were served in good time and were thankfully not all at once. We couldn't fault any of the dishes, as all were extremely tasty. Our waiter ensured our wine glasses were never empty and returned the bottle to the chiller to keep the temp correct. The staff were all welcoming and professional in their service. Which made our dining experience a pleasure. We will definitely visit again when next in the area. Thanks guys, keep up the good work. 👍

It’s fab! If the friendly funny frontman doesn’t get you back the food definitely will. Loved it!

Excelente comida, impecable servicio y agradable lugar.

Pre-theatre tapas. We thoroughly enjoyed all the tapas, which were a good size! The service was friendly, efficient and charming. Would definitely recommend and return there if in the area again.

Was a divine tapas experience with attentive service and delicious food!

My favourite restaurant in London , ♥️

Amazing staff & delicious food. Highly recommended!

The tapas was some of the best I’ve had and the service was excellent.

After the success of 2022, we did go back for our 2023 AGM - we even held our meeting there. Again, Issy & his team went above and beyond and the food was amazing. Thank you About Thyme Team. I visited About Thyme last Friday for a Company Post AGM lunch. Issy, from start to finsh, was a delight to speak to and liaise with. Nothing was too much trouble. And on the day, he and his staff were super helpful, lovely, smiley and the food - well, it was absolutely delicious. All our guests were super impressed and asked if we can go back next year. Although I think some of us will be back sooner. I highly recommend About Thyme.

Wanting something to eat before heading to Hamilton the musical, we found this treasure just 10 minutes walk away from the Theatre. The food is fresh, beautifully presented, lots of protein and vegetarian options, and most importantly, incredibly tasty. The interior is cool, comfy and got a great vibe, but the highlight is definitely the service - it's outstanding. Super friendly, fun, and professional without being intrusive. Highly recommend making more time for this place as a destination choice, not just a pre-theatre bite.

Fantastic food. We had a selection of tapas including duck, king prawns, grava lax, belly pork, cod fritters; all of which were beautiful and then had churros to finish. Very friendly staff - a really lovely evening and would recommend to others.

Locale molto curato, personale professionale, disponibile e molto attento anche alle piccole cose. Piatti molto buoni, le tapas sono piatti di piccole dimensioni quindi consiglio di prenderne più di uno per persona. Prezzo coerente con ciò che offre il ristorante. Consiglio vivamente per una cena elegante e di gusto.

Hadn’t been here in years but it is better than ever. Wonderful Spanish food. One of my favourite restaurants in all of London.

Excellent food, friendly and welcoming staff. Cool atmosphere for a nice romantic dinner. Must try the salad with caramelized orange.

Lovely little tapas bar. Tortilla here is amazing! Also love the scallops - they’re huge and tasty!

It's a good Spanish restaurant. Great atmosphere and delicious dishes. If you're looking for beer, they don't have a great selection, however they do have great wines.

Absolutely fabulous food, loved the tapas dishes and good to have the option of a main if you wanted it. Service was fantastic too. Absolute gem of a place. If we lived locally we would be regulars. Thanks so much

We have been here several times and it never disappoints. The food and hospitality are exceptional and the menu changes so you get to try different things. There is a large area upstairs if you wanted a private party and downstairs there is a great ambiance, you feel like you're on holiday!

This is a wonderful restaurant. Beautiful setting, the menu was fantastic with a great choice of tapas and mains. Every plate we had was delicious and presented beautifully. The service was absolutely spot on, even though it was busy. The churros and crème brûlée were the perfect ending to a fantastic meal. Will come here again next time in London.

I had a great stay! Eleojo resolved my challenge immediately, thanks a lot Eleojo! Olawunmi and Ogechi also.

Good atmosphere and high quality of food. Service generally good. Definitely worth a visit but felt it was a bit pricey and certainly the wine list was. I think we might have just had tapas throughout as felt the main course menu could have been...

Rica gastronomía y buena atención

We booked for a Saturday evening but it wasn’t that busy. I found this a little surprising as the food was delicious, the staff friendly and the ambiance relaxed and welcoming, It is quite unassuming on a Pimlico street not too far from Victoria, which...

Friendly service, nice interior, excellent observations (there was a cool breeze and without asking, the waiter closed the windows). Really nice menu, full of Asturian favourites for me. Yummy morcilla! 4.5/5. To reach 5, I would have liked better quality chocolate for the churros, like valor A complimentary herb liquor to finish and a very pleasant hour here. Recommended!

Top notch! Food insanely good, service 5 stars. I strongly recommend!!! It is REALLY GOOD

A great non chain restaurant. We were well looked after and given good advice. Nice atmosphere and reasonably full for an Easter Tuest. Just down from Victoria station . Thank you

Great dinner last night. Food and service were both 5 stars.

We had an excellent meal last night, everything we ordered tapas wise was amazing quality and value! Special mention to the ham croquetas and the crisp pork belly, true masterpieces! The ambiance of the restaurant is also warm and spicy, the lights were dimmed around 7 and it really brought the place to life! Great service too, quick and efficient and friendly! Although there were no cocktails available, there is an extensive wine list for you to pick from! We will definitely be recommending to friends, we look forward to dining with you again!

Visiting from Florida, USA This was an amazing restaurant. Had a delicious dinner of tapas and entrees after a long day of touring. Staff was friendly and the food was perfect. Staff was also very friendly and accommodating to our children too

I had an amazing experience in “about Thyme”tonight with my colleagues from work after a long day. The food was delicious and the staff were really friendly. I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone who loves food. Muchas gracias por todo esta noche!!

Excellent food, service and atmosphere. Can't wait to go back! All four of our group had an excellent time.

Excellent food, service and atmosphere. Can't wait to go back!

Interesting menu. Well presented delicious food, friendly professional staff.

What a great spot for tapas and wine - great service and flavors

Probably the best Spanish restaurant in London

Had a wonderful time, the food was lovely the service was lovely. There were a quite a few food allergies within the group, but the meals were adopted wonderfully, the chef even came to double check about allergies. Felt relaxed and had a great time.

Wonderful little restaurant - the food and wine were both excellent, the prawn starter and cheesecake dessert were particularly delicious! I will definitely be returning!

Lucky to get a walk in table. Food and service are faultless. As good a Tapas as you will get anywhere in Spain. Look forward to a return visit !

Brilliant restaurant, with lots of great tapas dishes to choose from and a good selection of mains. The staff are very friendly. They have an excellent wine selection and are very knowledgeable about wine and able to make great recommendations. We'll definitely go back.

What a fantastic find so near Victoria Station and Victoria Palace theatre. We chose it because it looked cosy and friendly on a cold evening and what delicious food, best tapas I've ever had.

Excellent pre Theatre meal. Exquisite Tapas - especially the Gravad lax with mustard. Great selection of Spanish wine, rounded off with the best ice cream I've had in years. Not cheap but you get the what you pay for.

What a fantastic food experience! We had our team lunch here and chose the Chef's table menu...what a delight that was! Every dish was flavoursome, well presented and enjoyed by everyone. They catered amazingly for our dietary requirements within the group too. The wine list is substantial but well-priced, and the service was friendly and unassuming. We will definitely be going back! Thank you Issy and team.

Another lovely visit to this gem of a restaurant Both the service and food were excellent and couldn’t be faulted We ordered from the tapas menu and each dish was cooked to perfection The wine which was recommended was a fabulous addition to the food...

So pleases this restaurant, like me has survived the pandemic. Will brightly painted yellow walls and yellow door curtains you will know you are in the right place though during the day it is still not easy to find as I noted in 2017 when...

Booked this restaurant for my family, the food menu initially looked like a challenge for my picky eater teenage daughter, however we ordered from the Tapas menu and she tried new food, including scallops which were the best I have ever tasted. We had a...

Very friendly and attentive service, nice interior design, food freshly prepared but surprinsingly bland. The dishes sounded very intersting, they were definitely freshly prepared and with a certain skill of cooking, but the taste was a bit disappointing. Almost no seasoning, not even enough salt...

Had our Christmas meal here ,this is a lovely cosy restaurant.We had the whole top floor to ourselves.About 40 of us spread across 3 long tables.The welcome & customer services was good & very swift & efficient.The waiters kept topping up the wine & water which was great!The 3 course meal was good ,though my favourite was the desert..a selection of homemade absolutely delicious icecream.The starter gets my second vote..a pleasant salad..Thyme Salad..a lovely green salad,with avocado ,a dash of prawns & tasty dressing.I least enjoyed the lamb shank though I love lamb..I found it too salty.Overall it was an amazing experience!!😃👍🥘🍲🍧🥗

The service and staff were attentive, friendly and helpful. The food was to a very high standard - we had the tapas. Look forward to returning and would definitely recommend.

Superb tapas restaurant, ideally located for pre-theatre diners, but I would return in a heartbeat for any reason! Service was the perfect balance of attentive without being intrusive and with genuine personality. We had an assortment of the tapas dishes, so can't speak for the...

Great athmosphere and welcoming to the restaurant. Food and wine selection was very good. Will definitely go again .

Fantastic evening here with delicious Spanish food and excellent, friendly staff who gave really helpful recommendations. Will definitely be back on my next visit to London. Would highly recommend!

We were wonderfully well looked after by two brilliant members of staff, one Spanish one French. We stuck to the tapas menu and enjoyed every dish. They coped perfectly with my husband's garlic allergy, warning him off what he couldn't eat, which was actually very...

Consistently delicious food, great service and ambience. Had the pleasure of eating at About Thyme several times and it never fails to deliver.

Great food with a warm welcome. Highly recommended. The Gambas were amazing and just the right amount of spice. The meat balls were very tender and very tasty. Very good patatas bravas with a good punch.

We were so impressed by our experience here - excellent food, very good house wines, and super friendly and attentive service. Lovely cosy atmosphere - a real gem in the area. Good value too!

Really excellent little local tapas restaurant. Standard dishes done well and specials all really good - interesting and tasty. Ham croquetas, round like arancini, were delicious - more memorable than one would expect. Good Spanish wine list, reasonably priced, with a selection of vintages of some wines, unusual in a small restaurant. Staff really friendly and helpful, and the place had a great relaxed, happy vibe for a Monday evening in October. Altogether just what you want from a tapas restaurant.

Menu was great! And the manager and staff top!!

Faboules tapas food. Good service by nice staff.

Took my girlfriend for her birthday, fabulous meal and service . Highly recommend. We left engaged 💍. Thanks to the staff who made the evening just perfect 👌🥂

Great food and really friendly service. Not cheap but worth it

We had a great mid week dinner here in this lovely local restaurant. The tapas selection was varied and all dishes were delicious. The food was brought throughout the evening which meant we had time to enjoy the evening. Wine list and selection of beers...

Great eating experience with business colleagues. We were a large party and they accommodated us superbly. Would definitely recommend

We had an amazing meal! We hadn't booked, but they sat us down at a secluded table, beautifully set out. The staff were excellent, constantly running around being attentive to everyone. The food was stunning, so thank you Chef, and they do a lovely bottle...

Vraiment une très belle découverte. Très bon et accueil chaleureux. Nous recommandons

Lovely food, accommodated a booking of 5 people easily for a dinner. Great variety and taste and excellent service. Would definitely recommend coming here!

We enjoyed a most delightful supper in this gem of a restaurant: the tapas were served 'in order', and although it became quite busy (understandably!) we felt happy taking as much time as we wanted to. The service was exemplary.

We went for paella - it is offered on their website menu. When we arrived they said they never serve it and we shouldn't believe what we see on the Internet - not even on their own website. BS!! So we ordered other non-generous, over-priced...
