Great food and super fast service! We went with kids and they couldn't be happier. Was so good, we went twice while on vacation.

I'm not sure if it was an off night or what happened, but this was one of the most disappointing meals of our trip. The reviews were high, so we were excited to enjoy a great meal. We arrived for Christmas dinner and were seated quickly. The service was okay - the young person helping us didn't really have recommendations and the one or two suggestions were not good. He told me to stay away from the Sunday roast and go for the chicken Milanese. Dry, tough and horrible. We also had sea bass, spaghetti bolognese and one other entree that I can't remember. The family agreed this was not a great way to celebrate Christmas.

Our party of 5 celebrated a birthday at Jak's in South Molton Street - on a Saturday evening in December. We initially chose the restaurant because it's name is the short form for my wife's name (!!) but the menu looked good and the reviews were favourable. We were not disappointed ! From the initial warm welcome to our departure, we were looked after brilliantly. The cocktails, food and wine were excellent; likewise the service and we did not feel the prices were excessive for a restaurant in this location. There were a couple of very nice touches - firstly, the manager provided a couple of pairs of "funny" Christmas spectacles to 2 of our party and he also arranged a special desert (no charge) with a candle and a sparkler plus singing of Happy Birthday by him/the staff for our birthday boy. Thank you to him/the staff for a special birthday dinner. We will definitely return !

Great place to go with friends after hours for drinks and a bit of a boogie!!! SADLY the DJ could do with educating on reading the room. We were the only people up and dancing for the majority of the night but the DJ wasn’t interested in playing to the room. Even when we requested songs he literally ignored/blanked us. Rest of the people working there were great at their job but just do t expect the DJ to veer from his set list!!!

Absolutely beautiful!!!! The whole experience was amazing.. The food was excellent, the quality perfec and the portion sizes were huge. I had the ribeye steak which was cooked to perfection, my son , the lamb shank, the meat fell off the bone. We also had the veal and cannoli, which were equally fantastic. The service was of the highest standard throughout. It was my son's birthday dinner and we had an amazing time here. Fully recommend.

I had the most revolting meal I have had in a long time. Poached eggs with smoked salmon on toast. the toast was not toasted. just stale bread. the sauce came out of a jar. the salmon was doled out in an excessive amount and tasted slightly off. the waiter was Albanian and had no English. You would expect a little better in Central London and for an exorbitant price. do stay away - it might make you ill. Lucia

Booked Jaks Mayfair in S Molton Street for mine and my wife’s 50th Birthday party. From making the booking, meeting Dawn events manager to arrange how we wanted the party to go, food selection and welcome drinks, I can not fault the place. The staff, bar staff, Met the manager on the night, in house DJ, it’s was all superb. 10/10. I would confidently recommend this place to anyone. All the guests at the party complimented the place. It’s is truly amazing. The decor, lighting, screens and 10/10. I will book again in the future but for sure will go there for lunch. Food is so good. All at Jaks, thank you very much. The memories we will always cherish, keeping doing what you’re doing Jaks. What a place. ❤️

Together with a group of friends and colleagues, 12 in number, we attended Jak’s restaurant in Mayfair for a pre-Christmas dinner. This iconic restaurant is just oozing with class, looks quite small from the outside but when you walk in it is like Doctor Who’s Tardis, spread over 5 floors, we were given a private room on the 3rd floor with its own bar and excellent staff. We had pre-booked our meals and they were served and presented well, food was excellent and champagne and wines flowed, and we had a lovely evening. It was my first visit to Jak’s, some of my friends has been there before, I will certainly visit again. We had a truly memorable night and thoroughly enjoyed the meal, service, and company.

Great selection of food and combinations. The food itself was very nice and the portion very adequate. Pricey, not really for the location in London. The staff were lovely and accommodating, professional service. However, with the bill comes an automatic service charge of 12.5% though. After a lovely service and meal it always feels wrong to quibble about the extra levied charges. It somewhat has snug in during the last years that the public is now expected to directly pay some of the staff wages? No other profession is asking for this. What happened to the days when we rounded up for good service? Now its part of the meal regardless of the quality of service. Any other business that would do this (think of a well known airline that added hidden extra charges) would not get away with this but in restaurants its now acceptable to have extras added for someone carrying a plate to the table. I will not return, as this spoiled a nice treat. There is a difference between doing something out of free will or being forced.

Flat white £4.50, slice of cheesecake £8.50, Americano £4.00. I know it's in Mayfair but come on, the place is nothing special, the service was ok. What's the most we can get away with charging? I prefer value for money establishments, I won't be returning.

How do 'restaurants' like this get away with it? Food was inedible and expensive. They have two females enticing tourists into the place and quite frankly it is an embarrassment - that tourists are being ripped off. The waiter was accommodating and promptly took the main course away and didn't charge for it.

We ordered 2 vegetarian full brunch with vegetables like mushroom, spinach, courgette and avocado with poached eggs. Only the egg and the avocado were served. Once we pointed it out that we were waiting for the food the waiter said Of course but after other 30 minutes he was just hiding in the kitchen. So no veggies available. They offered us a croissant instead. The quality of the egg, salmon and coffee is good but it is very poor however not expensive but I would say that with 6 tables maybe the service can be improved. Very nice coffee though

This was a real surprise. I chose it for its vibrant decor and cocktail menu. I got so much more. Fabulous drag DJ entertainer with the best legs I've ever seen. My husband and I really did have a riot of a time. Singing and dancing along was a hoot. Just wish it was local we would go there all the time. Staff were fun and welcoming. Just remember it's a drag act so not for the super touchy and easily offended. Loved it, keep it up girl, oh and the doorman had some great moves too!xx

Wandering around looking for a lunch spot after our recent office move and we found Farmer J! Salmon = delicious. The choices of sides were plentiful and so full of flavour. I had the sweet potatoes and panzanella- both highly recommended. My colleague had steak, rice, cauliflower and sweet potatoes and was so full she couldn’t finish it.
