Le Chabanais in City of London, Westminster

Llegamos a un bien equipado, moderno restaurante con perforados bien presentado y personal, y antes de que pudiéramos sentar ofrecieron la opción de ir a su nueva bodega bar - ¡qué descubrimiento! Una gran manera de comenzar la noche con kir Royale y Gin martinis, cócteles sin alcohol para nuestro hijo miembro del partido, de camareros y entusiastas informados. Luego nos retiramos a nuestra mesa, pedimos comida y vino, y nos cuidaron admirablemente. La comida llegó - steak tartare, calamares, ensaladas y excepcionalmente bien hecho y delicioso. Los platos principales fueron logrados y bien juzgados, la chuleta bastante excepcional. Los dulces excelentes también, así como el café y el vino del desierto. Si no nos aventuramos en el bar y nos dieron bastante así que llevar el proyecto habría quizás no han sido de tales proporciones pero la calidad de toda la experiencia, la atención del personal, las bebidas antes de la cena y la atención al detalle lo hizo una gran noche!! Ahora para cambiar el nombre de Tripadvisor que soportar que el nuevo conjunto está reconocida adecuadamente. Huzzah.

No estoy seguro de la propiedad, pero hay una nueva dirección y un nuevo chef en lo que solía ser el breve Le Chabinais. Era bastante agradable, con una decoración sencilla pero elegante y un muy acogedor y amable personal. Se aprobó la primera prueba con éxito - el martini perfecto de vodka. Tuve un plato de tartare de carne que se sirve apropiadamente con una yema de huevo de refrigerados en el lado. Mi esposa tenía la Burrata especial mediante la inclusión de albahaca y miel. Los platos principales continuó el racha ganadora con un delicioso pollo asado con foie gras y las trufas y una deliciosa papadelle con ragu de venado. El postre especial del día era uno de nuestros favoritos, Sticky toffee pudding, que valoramos mucho en comparación a otros. El único aspecto negativo era quizás la acústica del lugar. No había suavidad tales como cortinas de aburrida los sonidos y la música era un poco ruidosa teniendo en cuenta la edad de la mayoría de la clientela. Sin embargo, después de un tiempo se convirtió en menos de un problema. En general, un gran lugar y sin duda volveremos.

Food alright much the usual right down to the sorbet. Compared with other restaurants service average that matches with the food. It was a very hit and miss experience.

Un interior precioso, bronce, mármol . un largo bar. Nos dio una cálida bienvenida y nos llevaron a una mesa. El restaurante no estaba lleno, a sólo tres otras mesas comedor.

Simplemente, uno de los mejores de sábado almuerzos que he probado en Londres en un tiempo. Hermoso, la comida pero sencilla original, el más encantador tartare de carne y simplemente impresionante cherry sorbete con aceitunas kalamata. Top Marks todo! El servicio es amable y eficiente; no demasiado agobiantes. Un hermoso, más informal alternativa a mi favorito de la calle Monte habitual (y un clásico de Londres) Scott's. Un muy bienvenido, refrescante adición a la escena del restaurante de Londres que a veces se esfuerza demasiado difícil de "inventar la rueda" y se centra mucho en hacer un beneficio rápido. Una verdadera joya!

Estábamos deseando volver a nuestra comida en Le Chabanais, una colaboración entre el Leela Hotel Group y el equipo detrás del famoso Le Chateaubriand en París. Nuestra reserva inicial en mayo fue cancelado debido a problemas mecánicos misteriosos y ampliados. El restaurante en sí es una agradable, gran sala con una cocina abierta, que estaba bastante concurrida pero ambiente era deficiente y diners parecía ser en gran medida allí por negocios. Estábamos un poco estaban timando a estar sentados en taburetes altos en una larga mesa común que se extiende a lo largo del restaurante en contraposición a la mesa de comedor individual, asegúrate de pedir una de éstas si, como nosotros, no nos gusta este acuerdo. La comida es de estilo bistro francés con un toque moderno. No te molestes en detalle los cursos pero en resumen nada impresionado en lo más mínimo. También me pareció que los 2 vinos por copa ( £9) espantosa. El servicio estaba muy bien. En resumen, fue una decepción y que no volvería.

Oh dear. Was really looking forward to trying this place. Place was just really annoying. Waiters with the endless water for the table question and such visible despair when no wine ordered. Main courses were minute and the fish may have weighed less than 150g!

Mi experiencia en Le Chabanais era irregular. Yo me uní a un entorno de almuerzo y tenía tres campos. Mi cena conciudadanos elegido diferentes opciones y tuvimos una experiencia más agradable. Desafortunadamente, los 3 de mis platos falló para ir a la marca. Para comenzar, tuve el huevo y girolles (huevo era poco hecha con albúmina enfundarse el resto del plato), y luego la langosta principal (para mí el maridaje con los frijoles Cannellini son bastantes populares judías, espinacas y grosellas rojas no funcionaba, particularmente en un grasienta y imperfectamente aclaró caldo - todo era un poco squeaky para mi los dientes. De postre tuve la firma Mont Blanc con materias primas champiñón blanco tiras. Para mí, era raro. Muy extraño. Mi fecha de almuerzo acordado sobre las aceitunas que acompaña su cherry sorbete.

Cenamos en Le Chabanais recientemente y tuvimos una experiencia maravillosa. Absolutamente magníficos interiores de bronce con una comida deliciosa a partido! Para empezar, teníamos la codorniz y pollo Tandoori hígado ravioli (ambos eran increíble!) para los platos principales que tuvimos el lenguado Dover, que era fresco y delicioso. Mi parte favorita de nuestra comida fue el postre - Buttermilk helados, mousse de chocolate y este otro postre de hongos (no recuerdo el nombre). cocina francesa en todo su esplendor, es de visita obligada cuando en Londres!

Siempre hay platos de menús que estoy atraídos por los menús y otros que no soy. Este menú está lleno de invención e intriga. Sólo puedo hablar de mi comida, que era delicioso. Sin duda ordenados.

French cuisine carries a stigma of being formal, stuffy and white table cloth. Le Chabanais is far from everything traditional - yes it is liberating and moreover fresh. At the same time the restaurant holds true to everything French being fresh, simple and delicious. To start with the chicken liver ravioli is simple but yet so flavorful in a delicious fennel broth. The Dover sole is elegant - panfried on the bone with a subtle taste of chives ! And the Mont Blanc for desert is unlike any other - light and creamy All this in a smart casual dining setting - brass covered walls with marble tabletops - just delightful

the interiors are a beautiful brass gold and elegantthe food is like an awesome surprise party - mushrooms for desert! the dover sole was humongous. could not finish it (but I did wipe the plate) the presentation was beautiful. they had a very nice vegetarian fare and the service was very personalised for our large table (we were 8 of us). can't wait to go back there!!!

Yes, it is expensive. Yes, the portions (especially for the proteins) are on the smaller side. But it is such a treat to see, taste and experience in London the kind of cuisine that made Chateaubriand famous in Paris. True Parisian style gastronomy. Paul Boudier's use of vegetables is genius. We had the bountiful girolles to start, and the chicken liver ravioli, which was just as good as everyone has said. My boyfriend had the iberico ham, which he liked, although he mentioned the ham itself did not have much flavour but the broccoli and greens were superb. I had the rose infused pigeon and Sicilian onions - absolutely stunning. The pigeon was perfectly tender and flavourful in a lightly perfumed rose sauce. We shared the caponata between us, and as a half Italian, I was delightfully surprised. Perfectly cooked aubergine in a delicate, light and delicious tomato sauce. The brass and marble room is visually stunning. Especially loved the long brass bar. The cocktail bar downstairs is less so, I thought it would be more plush to evoke the restaurant's namesake, but the cocktails are of high quality.Go for the atmosphere, and the food. It's definitely worth it.

Lovely interior. Food looks beautiful but tiny portions for the price & some things didn't overwhelm.Octopus stew - not enough get up & go. Just octopus in its ink.Chicken pasta parcels in broth - lovely but tiny portion. 4 very slim parcels in broth.Lamb - most successful, fresh, spring-like but again tiny. 2 beautiful but tiny lamb chops.Sweetbreads - sold very heavily by the waiter. Again looked beautiful but not no stand out flavours.most successful are the puddings - cherry ice cream with kalamata olives & straweberries under a cloud-like cream.It's too expensive for the portion sizes & nothing really makes you say 'OMG'.Nice, intelligent service.

Really disappointing following the hype before it finally opened. The room was lacking atmosphere and felt a bit sterile and the food which followed, although not badly done, was bland and dissatisfying. The Tuna especially should be avoided. On a positive note the bread was the best I have had and the wine, albeit too expensive, was excellent as was the service. Much room for improvement.

I had an initial reservation here when they were opening but unfortunately they had some issues with opening and all bookings were cancelled. As I work nearby I noticed last week that it was now open so came here for a business lunch last week with some colleagues. Service started well at about 12.15 when there weren't many diners in the restaurant. However as it got business it was hard to attract the attention of the wait staff who don't seem to look up and keep an eye out for diners trying to catch their eye. It took over ten minutes to try and get the bill and then over another give to try and pay it. Service aside the food was pretty good depending on what you ordered. If you order well like a French man, you will be fine. The seafood soup (forget exactly what it is called but there is only one) is good and the sole was also delicious (although £36). The veal flatbread isn't really a flatbread and was very average but the aubergine was deliciously smoky. The tandoori quail starter was not that nice. There is a bread entree and radishes too but they don't give you plates for this so you are buttering in your hand which is awkward. This is a personal hate at restaurants. Decor is fine, nice even but not something that I noticed especially so not something to write about.Overall fine for a business lunch. I would be disappointed spending my own money there with friends though as for the price paid (apprx £250 for 3 people including service at 12.5%) it was too pricey. Other places in the area are better for the same price or less (eg. Chucks round the corner although that is much smaller).

We were disappointed when our original booking had to be cancelled but it was well worth the wait for Le Chabanais! The elegantly understated dining room with beautiful clean lines give an indication of the sophisticated simplicity that we were going to experience. The menu looked very basic and gave very little indication of the delights to come! My husband started with the Chicken liver ravioli with fennel broth which he thought was outstanding and I had the Cornish crab, coriander flowers...

Oh dear. We had high hopes for this place, having had a fantastic meal at Mugaritz a few years back and two superlative experiences at Le Chateaubriand. This place does Inaki Aizpitarte a disservice and should be avoided by anyone expecting the following: great food; lovely ambiance; good service. I don't usually pen reports of truly bad experiences, but this one was up there with the worst (for somewhere costing comfortably north of £100 a head), so I thought I would share it with others. First...
