Light Bar at St Martins Lane in City of London, Westminster

It was a very nice meal, the food was good and the waiter Adam was really sympatic.

Great restaurant! We managed to spend an unforgettable evening here with a boyfriend. It was a wonderful evening and not least thanks to the restaurant!

Lovely experience of dining at the Restaurant at St Martins Lane. The staff was excellent. We chose the pre-theater meal. Food was delicious as well. The whole setting of the restaurant was quite interesting. It's a perfect place to dine before watching any west end shows in my opinion.

Divine! We attended for a pre-theatre dinner. A wonderful experience with fantastic service. Some interesting/abstract dishes on the menu that were fun to try. The service was fantastic and the setting was romantic. The camembert was incredible and the watermelon soup, although an obscure dish, was fantastic! For mains we had sole & ribeye which were well presented and perfectly cooked. Would happily recommend this to friends and will certainly be back.

Restaurant at hotel! Breakfast is good and basic!

Excellent restaurant, we got there by accident, but were absolutely satisfied with the quality of service and taste!

Impossibly slow service. The restaurant was mostly empty, plenty of disorganised waiters, each time a different person coming to our table and forgetting our request. The food - lamb ribs were very good but served lukewarm, duck rillettes was bad, ratatouille was nice. Atmosphere- soulless, nothing special, not like the photos at all.

We enjoyed a set course pre-theatre meal. Our server Lana along with her colleagues were fabulous. Our dinner was wonderful and we highly recommend The Restaurant at St Martins Lane.

Absolutely fantastic lunch on their new summer menu. I was looked after Monika which I have to say was fantastic host that greeted me with a smile and carried it till the end. And the seabass, omg it was the highlight cooked to perfection!

Excellent restaurant, we really liked it here. My colleagues and I decided to celebrate a special event of our company here, our choice fell on this restaurant. And we were not mistaken! The evening was as perfect as it could possibly be planned!

Monika thank you for your excellent service! You made our stay and restaurant experience wonderful!

Lovely start to the day here every morning, and the hospitality of all staff, particularly Kohinoor was exceptional. Thank you for taking care of my mates and I! Can’t wait to return

It was our last night in London and we found this place with high ratings on Google. We got a main dish of ox cheek waygu and it was okay, not juicy, had a bone marrow sauce and was topped with more beef? The potatoes had no flavor. The sauce was gross but thought maybe it’s an acquired taste. We decided to try two desserts figuring no dessert is bad. Boy were we wrong. Both deserts the Black Forest and blackberry tart were absolutely disgusting. I’m not sure if something in it was off but the Black Forest was a strange consistency with no flavor and the blueberry tart had no hint of blueberry at all and instead tasted salty and nearly inedible. My husband who is too polite to say anything ate it all. We left and did not say anything, but it was the worst meal we have had in our life and came in at a super high price. I would avoid this restaurant at all costs. Wish we said something and saved $50 on the desserts.

The breakfast was amazing! We loved the deviled eggs and looked forward to it every day.

From the moment we arrived, the service was absolutely impeccable. Every detail was looked after with care, professionalism, and genuine warmth. The atmosphere was lively yet relaxed, making it the perfect setting for a wonderful meal. A special mention must go to Skender, who truly went above and beyond to make our experience exceptional. Skender was attentive without being intrusive, incredibly knowledgeable about the menu, and had a natural friendliness that made us feel completely at home. He made excellent recommendations and made sure we were looked after at every step. It’s rare to find service that feels both five-star and genuinely heartfelt — Skender delivered exactly that. He is a true credit to the team at The Restaurant. Thank you for an outstanding experience — we will definitely be back

Wow, perfect, sophisticated French cuisine!

Lovely place with a simple fixed price pre-theater menu and small Michelin star portions. Service was very well-coordinated and friendly. The dining room was too dimly lit and unfortunately quite empty at 6pm on Easter Sunday. I hope they are more busy and successful on other days. Overall a good balance of quality and price but the a la carte menu is probably too expensive for most

They are asking and even paying people to add fake reviews

Atmospheric, cozy place, polite and smiling staff, tasty and interesting dishes. We went with a large group of colleagues.

Ronika is a superstar server and ambassador for St. Martin’s, always a kind smile in the morning and help ordering our favorites.

Lovely dining room, and servers were courteous and attentive. There were a couple of breakfast options for those who require gluten-free meals, but not sure if it would be celiac safe. Was a bit disappointed that the acai bowl is actually just yogurt with acai powder, but it was still very tasty. Full English was alright, nothing special. Unfortunately, the cappuccino ordered was only tepid in temperature, but when brought to the server's attention it was quickly remade. Overall, the experience was OK, but there are better options in the area for breakfast.

There was a big group of us who hadn't seen each other in a very long time, so we were quite slow with ordering, but the attitude we received from the waitress and other staff was unnecessarily brusque. We didn't let this marr the evening and when the food came out it was surprisingly good. I hadn't actually looked at any reviews, so I didn't know what to expect, but it was a really nice contrast to the service. Between all of us, it felt like we ordered the entire menu, and everything we ordered everyone seemed to enjoy. Just a shame that at every turn, the staff made us feel like we were putting them out.

We were looking for somewhere to eat before a theatre show and found this. The food was excellent and Monika, our waitress, look after us extremely well. Highly recommended.

Outstanding service and mouthwatering food!

This was a surprising find, and a perfect pre-theater dinner spot. Although restaurants in a hotel are not always great, my friend and I really enjoyed their two-course dinner before running off to the theater. The pre-theater menu lasts till 7pm and it wasn’t crowded on a week night. Octopus salad and cod fish were cooked to perfection. Sweet potato fries were delish! Service from the rest of the staff was spotty but our server who spoke Spanish was very good and he was funny.

Food was decent but a little pricey even if it was very nicely plated and served. Staff were attentive and helpful and overall it was a good experience although there was a little confusion over my OpenTable booking.

Well done. For sure recommend it.🖖🖖

I’m staying at St Martin’s Lane Hotel and had breakfast at the restaurant this morning. The continental buffet was solid—fresh fruit, yogurt, granola, and a decent pain au chocolat—but the Shakshuka was the real standout. Frayer was attentive without being overbearing, making the experience seamless. The seating was surprisingly comfortable, and the atmosphere felt relaxed. I’m looking forward to breakfast there again.

We enjoyed great Afternoon Tea ceremony with delicious food, tea and great service from Monika. Warm regards, Julia

Our waiter Manuel was a force of nature and really made our evening special with his warmth, charm, smile and genuinely caring about our experience. Can't wait to come back.

Look, we came here for the great reviews but we noticed a huge lack of execution. The service was fine but our cut of meat was not great and the dessert was off putting, there are better places to eat in the city, I would not recommend.

Veggie main course a bit dull. But rest way superb! Excellent service, nice place

The whole team was amazing I had an special time the food 10/10 And Manuel was everything at dinner from the perfect server to comedian 100% recommend Daniela great host , and Steven super manager 🩷

Great food, surprisingly creative and delicious “Black Forest” dessert , and a wonderful server in Aarati who was delightful.

The service was impeccable and the food was delicious. The location is also very beautiful and our waiter, Aarati was really lovely. Would highly recommend!

Great service from our server Lana and amazing pre theatre menu. Food is absolutely amazing! Would definitely back !

Manuel looked after us and advised us in an impeccable, kind and friendly manner. A quiet place to dine peacefully.

Our server, Manuel, was very friendly and helpful. The food was excellent. Our family had a wonderful time here celebrating me and my husband’s birthdays.

Great Breakfast omelette is wonderfully Monika is the best ever

Didn’t love the food here and the service was very cold. Shame because the hotel is great!

Lovely quiet place with amazing food. Manuel was excellent and guided us through the menu making sure we had the best possible experience. We both had the wagyu beef. 10/10

Great stuff! Manuel, thank you!

Great pre theatre meal: quick, efficiency and polite service from Manuel and tasty food 😊

We turned up as per our booking on Christmas Day and the restaurant informed us they are not doing a la carte menu but during booking their website allowed us to book for meal without Christmas menu (£150 pp) So misleading and completely ruined our Christmas.

Aarati was a fantastic server at THE RESTAURANT at ST MARTINS LANE HOTEL. The food was superb.

My girlfriend and I attended the Den for Afternoon Tea. The food was delicious and selection of tea was great. Additionally, our waitress Aarati was very attentive and overall excellent. I would highly recommend this experience.

Very good waiter! (Manuel) & lovely food.

The chef’s passion is evident in the dishes.!!!

Really poor quality of food - tasteless, cold & uninspiring. Service was good but not great. Way too expensive for what we got

Staff were fantastic- really went the extra mile particularly with the kids. Our server Monika was particularly attentive.

Fantastic meal in London after a show, Manwel made the whole experience and made sure mums nut allergy was taken care of.

Perfect dining spot for a weekend getaway

Manuel was star of the dinner, he sorted out our searing, made us welcome and explained the menu/choices. Five stars to Manuel

Very good service from the whole team especially Adan. They brought a surprise bday cake as it was my friend bday! Very attentive service throughout.

The Restaurant at St Martins Lane offers a vibrant dining experience in the heart of London. Highlights include their impeccably prepared seafood and creative vegetarian options, which are both flavorful and beautifully presented. The staff are attentive and knowledgeable, enhancing the overall experience with excellent service.

very bed food service and in general

Amazing evening the waiter is so attentive and kind the food was very delicious and the dishes is so beautiful

Amazing experience. The food, the tea, and the service. Manuel did a great job explaining everything and provided a wonderful experience. Highly recommend.

It is amazing service food environment

We had a lovely dinner at the restaurant. The food was amazing! In addition, we had great service from Aarati. She was friendly and made our meal even better!

The place was welcoming and the food was tasty - a place to be this festive season!!!

The food and interior of the restaurant are really great

Staff were lovely, food was great, and the atmosphere was amazing

I can say their services are top quality,you would never regret the experience.

recently visited this beautiful place and it was nothing short of a delightful experience. From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel incredibly welcome – warm smiles, genuine hospitality, and attentiveness that felt personal without being overwhelming. The food? Simply amazing. Every dish we tried was bursting with flavor and clearly crafted with care. What made the evening even better was the ambiance – cozy and inviting, making it the perfect spot for both intimate dinners and gatherings with friends. Special shoutout to Vanessa, who went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable.

everything is at the highest level!!!❤️

Nice restaurant with great good near trafalgar square. Superb service from Harati. Keep going this way!

Super slow service but the waitress was very nice. Food pretty good.

Great atmosphere here good food and overall great service. Will defiantly return here again.

Located in London’s vibrant West End, The Restaurant at St. Martin’s Lane offers a sleek, modern ambiance and exceptional service. The chic, minimalist decor creates a stylish setting for a refined dining experience. While it’s on the pricier side, the overall atmosphere and service make it a solid choice for a special night out.

Great food and understanding staff. Me and my partner were served by Manuel, gentleman provided great experience.

Highly recommend. Went for a special date night with my husband. Delicious food and attentive service in a buzzy atmosphere (but still very possible to talk!) with some people-watching thrown in. Great value on the pre-theatre menu but costly the moment you venture off, which it was hard not to do - nevertheless worth it.

Great place to have dinner with interesting desserts. Despite major delays in the food service, we were looked after by Manuel, a lovely and professional waitor!

Good food, very attentive staff and cozy atmosphere. The cocktails are 10/10 and the waitress Aarati even sang us a happy birthday song and brought a tiny cake 🫶

Great pre-theatre meal, thank you. And thanks particularly to Aarati for looking after us so well

Awesome hotel! Very comfortable bedding! Magnificent decoration! Well stocked minibar! Clean room! Top cocktail! Excellent cuisine! Lovely staff (especially bar/restaurant manual). I highly recommend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Monika our waitress was wonderful and attentive - and the full English was damned fine as well!

Service was great and food was delicious. Seating was fast and ambience was comfortable. Manuel was very helpful with the menu and answered all of our questions. I would definitely recommend.

I had the pleasure of having breakfast in the hotel restaurant during my stay in London and the experience was wonderful. Mr. Frayer treated us exceptionally, making us feel very comfortable and welcome from the first moment. He was incredibly kind and caring, always attentive to our needs and making sure everything was perfect. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was cozy. I would definitely recommend this place!

Ideal pre theatre dinner spot. We really enjoyed our meal. Thanks Manuel.

Chose this place for its closeness to the theater. We had their pre theater set. The restaurant had a cool atmospheres and our server Manuel was friendly. Food was average.

Neither the food nor the service lived up to this very overpriced menu. We spent ~£300 for 5 people (one drink, no starters, no desserts), yet we all left feeling hungry and disappointed.

This was the worst food I have eaten in a long time. Our waitress was nice but didn’t know about the menu. My opinion is this restaurant is trying too hard to be fancy and unique and is missing simplicity of great food.

Delicious food presented beautifully. Manuel was a fantastic server. Highly recommended.

Delicious food, wonderful service from Manuel and chef Rohit. Loved the cauliflower soup and and green godess salad. Highly recommend!!

Pre-theatre dinner. Excellent service, attended to extremely well. Food was very good,but a bit disappointed with the green goddess salad main course, as a lot of kale clogged the plate. But would definitely eat here again!

Manuel was lovely and attentive, the vibe was quiet and pleasant, food presentation and taste were great although the portions were a bit small. Chicken was sous-vide, so please consider if you don't like your food being cooked in a plastic bag. Good vegetarian suggestions on the menu and excellent attention to food allergies from the waiter. Charging 13.5% service charge and then asking the guest to state an additional sum for the tip and to write the new total has put us in an uncomfortable situation but overall a pleasant experience.

We had afternoon tea. We had great service from Kohinoor. She made the experience one we won’t forget. She was attentive to our every need. 👍👍

Dinner at the restaurant st. martins lane post a matinee show was fab! Signature cocktails at the bar were very tasty. Manuel was our server for dinner, very knowledgeable and great service. Highly recommended

Spectacular, the food is delicious and the presentation of the dishes is A1. Manuel gave us very good recommendations. I would definitely return

Frayer and all the servers we great

Stopped for drinks after show. Had great service and loved the relaxing atmosphere and beautiful setting.

Great food, Manuel provided excellent service!

Amazing food and service. Staff Manuel is friendly and surprised us with slice of cake for both of our birthdays. Definitely coming back again. Restaurant is just 6 minutes walk from the palace theatre. Had their 2 course pre-theatre menu

We had tea at the restaurant. Manuel gave us a fun tour of the hotel beforehand to elevate our tea experience. It was one of the most unique teas I’ve ever had!

I’ve eaten crispy poached egg as a starter and seabass as main dish and it was superrr delicious I really recommend this place. Last but not least I’ve been served by a lovely girl called Marcela and she has been very helpful and kind.

The best meal I’ve had in ages! Every dish was incredible, full of flavour and brilliant service. Our server Manuel was very attentive, thank you.

The waiter, Mauel was wonderful - brilliant service. It was my mum's birthday which I mentioned in passing and he brought a cake on a bday plate with a candle. The food (pre-theatre menu) and cocktails were good. We were short of time but the main menu looked really good. Atmosphere good even though we were pre-theatre so assuming it gets better and better!

Our server, Manuel, was absolutely brilliant and made us feel very welcome. The food was amazing and they had so many vegetarian options!
