Dunes in Kensington and Chelsea

We came here to have dinner after a concert at Cadogan since this was the only place opened to 10.30 pm. Arrived @10.15, stood for a few min - waiters were just passing , no one paying attention until I turned around and smiled at a waitress who was folding napkins. I asked if we could have a table for 2. We were sat. Another waitress, came to give us the menu but before that started joking around with the diners next to our table- considering it is now 10.20pm (last order is 10.30pm). She eventually handed us the menu and told us - just to let you know the kitchen is closing in 10 min. Food arrived, husband ordered the saucicon and lentils and I the duck. Both meals were extremely salty. Enough to trigger hypertension- not a joke!!! I tried to find a part of the meat that wasn’t salty but I gave up- the sauce was even worse. My husband finished his as he was hungry considering our last meal was lunch time. The waitress arrived to collect and saw I hardly touched my meal - so i complained about the saltiness. My husband didn’t complain- he is British. They were nice enough to take my order off the bill. Came the dessert- I ordered the citron crepes and my husband the chocolate crepes. Desserts arrived - except my husband got the chocolate mousse. My husband and I looked at each other- and said oh well maybe they misheard. As we started on the dessert- the head waiter came up to say I believe you ordered the chocolate crepes we apologise - it is coming, we won’t charge you for the chocolate mousse. I wouldn’t say we will not come back. We may try again on another time of a day. I think there is something going on with staff morale in the kitchen if the food is mediocre for the prices on the menu. Deal with that please.

Visited this place several times during our stay in London. Staff is very friendly, and tea is spot on. Enjoyed morning tea and scones, afternoon tea, and even after dinner tea here.

The restaurant boasts a good ambience, but the service was poor. Recommended only if service quality is not a major concern for you.

Angelina had very good service, was friendly and made me an amazing iced chocolate thank you!

He estado en este restaurante antes y aunque la comida es buena, es la vista de Kensington High Street lo que hace que este lugar. Puedes sentarte en una mesa y ver pasar a la gente. Soy un gran observador de personas y este es el lugar para estar. Buen vino Buena comida. El personal lo dejará solo y no lo apurará. Recomiendo este lugar!
