Lyle's in Hackney

What a disappointing experience. Poor service, food average and fleeced for wines by the glass. I was left standing at the entrance for 5 minutes. You don't mind paying a lot for main courses that deliver but this was just above average bistro fare. I was excited by having goose because it has been a while but it was just bland. My companion's scallops were too salty. Sometimes you just despair for the advice given by the michelin guide. Apropos bistro, the set-up makes you feel like you have arrived in a local bistro, tables so close that privacy is not an option. I was appalled by the price I was paying for a glass of average Chablis. I didnt even think to ask how much it would be, thinking it would be between 10 and 20 quid. Essentially 5 glasses of wine were nearly double the food cost. Even for London, thats just outrageous pretentious nonsense. On leaving they had no idea where the coats were and took an age to find them. This is not Michelin star service. Avoid at all costs! If you can tear yourself away from shoreditch just cross over to barbican and try st barts for a much better experience

Such a fantastic lunch. The welcome was so warm and friendly. The drinks on point, and the food was so so delicious. Sometimes hyped restaurants fail to deliver. This exceeded my high expectations!! Loved it. Up there with the top restaurant visit of 2024 🙏🏼

I could understand what makes Lyles deserves world best 100, but it is not in service. The service staff didn’t wish to keep an eye on costumer need by table. However, the tasting menu was good for creative soul in each simple dish, and I would love to visit again for a lunch or dinner

We had quite a lovely experience at my niece and (new) nephew’s wedding here. We are all foodies and Lyle’s did NOT disappoint. A well thought out menu with accompanying wines made for an unforgettable day!

Had the guest series, Mathieu Rostaing-Tayard, few days ago. It’s really amazing. All the dishes are full of details with many beautiful layers. Definitely will visit Lyle’s again to try their official menu:-)

Food was great, but it was ruined by how long it took courses to come out. We waited on average over 40 minutes per course, which for a tasting menu is unacceptable. Left hungry and unsatisfied.

The food is very delicious, the atmosphere is good, and the service staff are very good.

Very nice! Yummy food! Good service! Only 4 stars because of the price I feel there are some slightly better options

Such a relaxing evening. Gentle surroundings, and food was a triumph, especially the John Dory and Hereford ribs.

I didn't understand "the experience" as we say now when we go to a restaurant. Very loud music, typical in London but not really appropriate in a Michelin-starred restaurant. The beef tendon left me hungry...🙄

Just yum! Great food, good service. Tasting menu never fails to impress and is perfect portion size -- don't leave feeling stuffed. Or hungry

Perfection, great wine matching to delicious food

Great food, great service… a complete delight…

A fantastic experience—exceptional British seafood with a modern twist, where every dish was simply outstanding. The wine pairings were spot on, complementing the flavors perfectly. The service was warm, friendly, and genuinely welcoming. Set in a beautifully decorated, modern restaurant, it made for an unforgettable dining experience.

This place was excellent. The service, the food, the wine, the vibe - I came for lunch and the food was spectacular! Highly recommend.

The pluses: Good quality products, well worked. Pleasant and friendly service. Cons: For the price, I was expecting something more "out of the ordinary". The chairs are uncomfortable. Room very slightly noisy... We did not understand the descriptions of the dishes by the servers.

My first visit and I can’t wait to return. 10 years on and still pirouetting en point - with ease. Merci Beaucoup! 👌

Had a very nice meal here. Refined dishes prepared with great care. Very friendly and smooth service. Furthermore, you sit in a beautifully decorated restaurant. Definitely recommended.

We had an incredible experience at Lyle’s! The staff made me feel so welcome for my birthday. The sommelier did a fantastic job pairings wines and we found some new favorite. I can’t stop thinking about the Cucumber Gazpacho - it was delightful.

Definitely one of the best experiences I had in London. The food was incredible, my personal favourite was the fish and the gazpacho. The desserts were great and the vegan one for me was mind blowing as I usually find them to lack flavour. We also did the wine pairing as well and thought it added so much to the experience. The only thing to improve I’d say is the timing, the wait especially in the beginning was a bit long and dinner ended up lasting a long time too.

Excellent service. Really friendly and non pretentious. Monkfish course was incredible

I don't often review restaurants in the UK, but I felt I had to review Lyle's. We booked this as we were led to believe it was a top restaurant, and we wanted to celebrate our son's birthday. We then heard the food was okay, tasteless, expensive, etc. This made us very apprehensive, and certainly, the Tripadvisor reviews were mixed. Nonetheless, we still went ahead, and I'm so glad we did. From the moment we entered the restaurant, we were greeted with welcomes and smiles. The food was really good—fresh seasonal ingredients, well presented, and all the dishes we had were delicious. There was none of the style over substance I see so often in London restaurants now. However, if I were to grumble, some dishes were on the small side. Excellent choice of drinks which worked well with the dishes. Service was exceptional. Friendly, polite, and gravitating toward the guests - as it should be! Just a wonderful experience overall. Thank you.

Lyle's, nestled in the heart of Shoreditch, is a Michelin-starred gem known for its seasonal and inventive tasting menus. During my visit, the menu was a celebration of summer, offering a vibrant exploration of fresh, dynamic flavors and textures. The meal began with the refreshing Summer Vegetables & Smoked Eel. The smokiness of the eel perfectly complemented the sweetness of the summer vegetables, creating a delightful interplay of flavors. If you like mackerel, then you would've loved the Mackerel & Gooseberry Toast. The richness of the mackerel was balanced by the tartness of the gooseberries and completed well with the suggested Riesling pairing. Next, the Tomato Gazpacho, Melon & Marigold delivered a refreshing twist on the classic gazpacho. The melon’s sweetness played off the acidity of the tomatoes, while marigold petals added a whimsical floral note. The Pollack, Artichokes & Preserved Lemon was equally impressive, with tender, flaky pollack paired wonderfully well with briny artichokes. The Duck, Beetroot & Pickled Green Fig was the star of the evening with texture and flavor. The duck was cooked to perfection—succulent and tender—while the earthy beetroot and tarty pickled fig created a vibrant explosion of flavors. The Fig Leaf Ice Cream, Blackberries & Meringue was a delightful and refreshing end to the meal. It had a unique and subtle flavor, while the blackberries added a touch of tartness and the meringue provided a delightful textural contrast. Overall, Lyle's offered a truly memorable dining experience. Their dedication to fresh, seasonal ingredients and inventive flavor pairings was evident in every course. Highly recommended for those seeking a unique and delicious exploration of modern British cuisine.

We had a great evening at Lyles. We did a taster menu with paired drinks. One of us had the wine and regular menu and the other had the vegetarian menu with paired kombucha which was a very interesting option. We had great service, efficient warm and friendly. We had delicious food. Cucumber gazpacho was a big highlight. Of slight disappointment was the dessert. A damson ice-cream with other bits but elements of the fish were very chewy. The decor was cool, stripped back and elegant but actually for a long meal like we had I probably prefer a softer more comfortable seat. We ready enjoyed our evening.

Really Interesting variety of food. Really authentic British. Not for everyone but if your into trying different foods then this is a must. The people here are really nice and cater well.

Incredible wine pairings, service and accents on small but punchy flavours in the dishes. Well deserved 1 star, could be 2 star Michelin. Will definitely be coming back! Keep the love for your craft alive ❤️

Very overpriced for the standard. The food was nice but nothing special. £650 for three people just seems too much for the quality. Nice place but not worth the hype.

A bit expensive for what you’re getting.

My Highlight in London. Perfekt creative food, nice and friendly Ambiente and great Service. I hope i can come back one day! Update: Our favorite in London or world wide?, whenever we are visting London we will come here. As well we own a restaurant in Berlin and I will always recommend to our London Guests your Restaurant- thanks again!!!

Top restaurant. All dishes were fanstastic. Our highlights were the grilled udder and the fried calamari - so good! Also worth mentioning was the delicious bread, which was included.

Best restaurant with diverse dishes

Every time I go to Lyle's I think - "I should come here more often". For a restaurant to consistently nail food and service to the level they do is sadly increasingly hard to find.

We booked this as a special meal however left quite disappointed for the price point. We’ve been to quite a few Michelin star restaurants in London for special occasions and this had been on our list for a while so had higher hopes, and the standard of food was not there compared to others. I’ve give 2 stars for the food, not that some of it wasn’t tasty, however for 5 courses for £100+ we were expecting a lot more bold flavours and larger portions. For example, the bread course was counted as one of the courses whereas in other restaurants this is an added extra. We also only had one oyster each for this course, I would expected several for a Michelin. The pudding felt disappointing and didn’t have much flavour. The service was very good and very friendly with attention to detail. The tables were close together which muted the atmosphere. I don’t normally write reviews however given the price point we thought important to share.

It's a mystery to me why this restaurant should be in the top 50. It was by far the worst experience in a star restaurant. High-quality ingredients are used and some combinations are interesting, but there can be no question of taste explosions and the presentation is loveless, as is the service... You feel like you're in a fast food restaurant, completely impersonal and fast, fast. Not for me

It was at the bottom of the simply furnished bus stop, I had to watch the people waiting for the bus while eating. The food is not bad, but the price performance is bad.

Amazing atmosphere, impeccable service & food with massive flavour explosion. Great wine & cocktail selection too. Reason I'm giving this place 4 stars is that I don't think it's quite worth the price tag & whilst the food was incredibly tasty, I didn't feel it blew my mind compared to some of the other fine dining experiences I've been to. It's also quite a small menu (5 courses, portions are small) and my expectations were slightly higher than what was delivered.

This is a restaurant at the top of its game, it's easy to see why it's in the top 100 places to eat in the world. The food excels not just in presentation but also taste. The staff are warm, happy and clearly love their job, it shines through. All in all the food and service is haute cuisine without the stuffiness that often carries . It's not cheap but you get what you pay for on life.

What a wonderful meal. Everything was delicious !! Everything. Such a delightful time the staff was attentive and so nice. The baby squid was a revelation. Soooo light and crispy.

We came here for our anniversary lunch (sadly can no longer do dinner since we're new parents). The array of dishes on the menu was great and made me try some things I normally would not order - like the whole mackerel. Vibe was very shoreditch. Attentive staff. Wine's are a bit too organic for me but the pea shoot margarita was amazing.

It was lovely. Good food, brilliant service. Food was delicious and freshly cooked. Absolutely recommendable.

Went already twice and both set menus were incredible. Wine selection is also great. Staff extremely nice!

A lovely atmosphere with the service to match. We went there for an anniversary meal and received a lovely card signed from all the staff - an appreciated touch. I thought the food was good but maybe a combination of high expectations and the fact that two of the dishes on the set menu tasted the same to me I was a little underwhelmed. Either way you could tell a lot of thought and care had gone into everything. P.S. I found the chairs uncomfortable for a long meal 😆

Food was good and unique. Nothing worth a revisit though.

Dinner at Lyle’s was amazing and just right with 5 dishes, and able to ‘mix n match’ from the veg / pescetarian / normal menu - big thumbs up for being flexible. Great recoms for wine to go with the chosen food, and overall super nice ambience. Water was refilled as much as one could wish for at no extra charge. Menu changes daily so def a place to go back to with some frequency!

Honestly I don’t understand all of this hype around this restaurant and I don’t understand the Michelin Star too. The food is pretty average (except for the gazpacho and the dessert) and is extremely expensive. 5 courses for 95£. And there was even no pre dessert. The positive side was the service, because the guys were really attentive. But a part of this food was bland and pricey. I hope they gonna be some changes in the future.

Inventive and delicious food, friendly and attentive service, just a perfect meal.

Wieder ein wunderbarer Abend im Lyles. Neben dem Essen - hervorzuheben sind die Austern und der Wolfsbarsch - ist vor allem die wunderbare Weinbegleitung hervorzuheben. Eines der wenigen Restaurants, das es immer wieder schafft, hier überraschende aber immer perfekt zum Essen passende Weine zu finden. Nicht umsonst eines der Restaurants, das wir versuchen jedes Jahr immer wie zu besuchen

Incredible evening at Lyle’s celebrating my husband’s birthday. From the online booking we ticked vegetarian and pescatarian, assuming we would both have the veggie menu on their website, but upon arrival were amazed that a pescatarian option was available for us, menus were ready for our arrival and all staff were aware of our diets / the special occasion. The food, wine and service were faultless and it was such a special time. It all felt like a very well oiled machine, with cute little touches like a birthday card signed by all of the staff. Tasting menus can be hit or miss and often way too much food but this truly was perfect. Cannot recommend enough.

I had a wonderful time and the food was amazing 🤩 the staff were so good 👍

Disappointing experience. Went for dinner with the set menu. 1. Tiny portions (1 oyster, 1 tiny pork skewer, 2 small fried tomatoes, 3 pieces of asparagus, 1 small cut of monkfish) We were stuffing ourselves with bread in between courses because service was slow between plates even though it would take a diner all of 10 seconds to finish what’s on the plate 2. Taste - appetizers were good albeit tiny, but the asparagus was god awful bitter and sour and pungent, the monkfish was not a tasty endeavor, the oyster and granita is a silly combo (who wants frozen dressing on their oyster?!) Was itching to leave by the end of the mains. Server must have noticed because we were not able to finish our bitter mains but still found the courage to try and upsell the cheeseboard. And later the teas and coffees. Not the most graceful sales move when people are not having a good time. 2 stars is generous, benefit of doubt that maybe my palate isn’t suited to daily menu I had and on another day it could be amazing. But I’ve been to other brilliant set menus and fallen in love so I’ll leave you with a cliche; it’s not me, it’s you!

It is very good for vegetarian food.

My experience was incredible from start to finish. The chefs even surprised me with a special dish because I really wanted the razor clams but have an allergy to one of the ingredients used in the dish - I am so touched by how thoughtful and sincere this gesture was. The food overall was inventive, delicious and beautiful. The service was super friendly and everyone made us feel looked after, whilst also making a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere. We had the BEST time and look forward to the next time!

Only ever eaten here at lunch, always excellent. Our first evening experience which is a set tasting menu. Nice room with good ambiance. Very New York dining style. Food was very very good. Nice balanced menu. Each course a nice size so when you finish your meal you are satisfied not stuffed. No weak courses and lots of highlights. Quality of the beef dish has to get a mention though along with bread and marmalade ice cream. We had the wine pairing which was nice and the sommelier very knowledgeable. The only reason to downgrade my mark was the connection between wine being served and food needs to sharpen up. Too many occasions where we are looking at wine and waiting for food or visa versa. Other than that service good and friendly.

I had a la carte for lunch. All the dishes were delicious, especially the smoked eel. The wine selection was also good, making for an enjoyable Saturday lunch.

Wonderful place! Incredible friendly host and the Food is amazing!

100/100. Lovely service. Incredible food. Casual unpretentious environment.

We did not get to try to food there due to issue with the booking. However, they were really accommodating and referred us to another restaurant. The wine we had there was amazing.

Neither the quality of the ingredients nor cooking were good. Despite of the ridiculous high price level and service charge, we helped ourselves with water and wine. Quite disappointed.

Had dinner and liked the place in general. The ingredients are clearly up to the standards, the meals were cooked spectacularly well and each of the courses were rich in flavor and still balanced in taste. The wine selection is also superb. Yet, I am deducting a star because of the sand residue in the oyster and the overuse of anchovies in the main course. I also asked for still water and got sparkling water in a still water container. Here is the menu and my scores for each: Carlingford Rock Oyster & Tomato: 2/5 (mentioned sand residue) Raw Hereford Beef Tart: 3/5 (tasted great but its texture was off because of the sheer amount of the raw beef. Tart was not enough to save its texture) Chicory, Apple & Pevensey Blue: 5/5 (Simply amazing. Delicious cheese, chicory cooked perfectly, and apple complemented the dish very well) Tema Artichoke, Bottarga & Preserved Lemon: 5/5 (Perfect in all taste, texture and presentation) White Asparagus, Walnuts, Anchovies & Spenwood: 4/5 (Very tasty but anchovies overshadowed the dish, throwing off its balance) Guinea Fowl, Brassicas & Wild Garlic: 4/5 (Brassicas were splendid. They blended so well with the garlic it blew my mind. Unfortunately, I cannot say the Guinea Fowl was seasoned enough) Ricotta Ice Cream, Rhubarb and Magnolia: 5/5 (I cannot imagine a better dessert for this dinner. Rhubarb and Magnolia gave it a unique flavor that some people could find too aromatic. The ice cream was also spectacularly well made, not too heavy in sugars with just the right texture served at just the right temperature)

Eaten here a few times in the last year or two. Genuinely excellent cooking, ingredients and service. You’ll get a superb meal here that is full of detail and it’s a great dining room. Good value for what it delivers as well in my opinion.

Casual smart and relaxing. Nice food, great service

This restaurant is also good but this is not for Muslim because Muslim notice things and this they have not at this taste

Always such a great meal here. Super tasty food and fantastic service. Great cocktails and wine too. So helpful and accommodating to us as parents with a three week old, made us feel so at ease.

Making really solidly grounded,but equally creative dishes, digging deep into core British food, this place kept us excited for the next arrival.

Everything was exceptional! Delicious food and a great wine list. A must in London, not to miss!

Culinary experience of the highest level, chosen vegetarian menu which I attach. A growth of flavours, explosion of taste, quality and love for the ingredients that become food. Final with two exceptional desserts that make you leave smiling. Good range of wines, excellent bread, attentive, friendly and professional service. Very nice to see the team of young chefs working. Price not trivial, but the experience is worth what you spend. Recommended, Michelin star I would say well deserved

We had such a great evening here last week on a 1 night layover in London. A friend had recommended this spot as having great food but in a casual laid-back atmosphere and that is exactly what we found. The food delivered across every course and was delivered in a set-menu. We ordered a few bottles of wine and the 'optional' cheese course. If there was anything negative, I found the chairs to be a bit uncomfortable and the sauce on the oysters to overwhelm the natural flavors of the oyster. Standouts were the turbot & white asparagus and the beef dish. Also, the stichelton (on the cheese menu) was delish. The "simple" things - like the homemade sourdough bread and oat crackers (with the cheese) were absolutely delicious and homemade as well. I can't wait to come back on another visit!

Perfection. This was my first time trying Michelin starred / fine dining, so I had high expectations, but I was blown away by the whole experience! The food, the service and the atmosphere - perfect. I highlight recommend the wine pairing You really need to come here to really grasp the level this place is at.

One of the best meals we've had in a long time. Plus, Steph, our server, was absolutely amazing. We can't wait to come back again!

Good but definitely overpriced! I wouldn’t repeat it.

We had a wonderful meal at Lyle's, the tasting menu was excellent (pictured is the Hereford forerib, utterly delicious). As a celiac sufferer I was incredibly grateful for the gluten-free adaptations, it is fantastic not to have "gluten-free by omossion" as happens in far too many other places. Service was warm and friendly, and my mocktails were excellent. I'll be back.

Sur le papier, il y avait de quoi être enthousiaste : étoilé michelin, dans le classement world 50 best, et considéré comme meilleur restaurant à Londres en 2024 sur Square Meal… Plutôt un palmarès laissant penser qu’on peut y aller les yeux fermés. Nous avons opté pour le menu unique avec accords mets et vins C’est sans chichis, simple, on se sent plutôt dans un joli restaurant que dans un étoilé. C’est bruyant, vraiment, car l’espace est plein, les tables assez resserrées et il y a de la musique assez forte en fond. Pour un diner en couple, pas l’idéal du tout. Le service est très sympathique, et dans l’ensemble l’ambiance du restaurant est agréable. Nous avons pris l’accord mets et vin facturé £75 par personnes… Pour 5 demis verres de vin, tout à fait corrects les vins, mais il s’agit de bouteilles autour d’une vingtaine trentaine d’euros la bouteille à l’achat. Nous aurions aimé des verres entiers pour ce prix. Le vin est servi parfois une vingtaine de minute avant le plat qu’il est supposé accompagner. Comme il s’agit d’un demi verre il est souvent vide quand le plat arrive. Pour les plats c’est un menu unique pour tout le restaurant, mais étrangément nos voisins avaient des assiettes avec plusieurs morceaux de viande alors que nous n’en avons eu qu’un… La nourriture est très correcte, mais clairement plus du niveau d’un bib gourmand que d’un étoilé… Et encore nous avons fait des bib’ gourmands plus exigeants. Le problème est que le prix à payer est plus proche de certains 2 étoiles avec lesquels la comparaison est impossible : dix niveaux de catégories les séparent. Nous avons beaucoup aimé l’huitre aux coings, mais une seule petite huitre par personne, c’est vraiment peu. Nous avons mangé dans des restaurants à Londres deux à quatre fois moins chers qui valent beaucoup plus le coup !

Second time and we loved it again! Very nice staff, seasonal food. I recommend it, I would return!

Food was really good! And service too needless to say. But gotta say it’s quite pricey and portions were for sharing. Since portions were small, you’ll have to order quite a few dishes to be full which adds up to the bill.

Intresting food, nice atmosphere.

It is the perfect place for a delicious meal to celebrate, but with a relaxed feel. We had an amazing evening and I will be recommending Lyle's to my friends.

Amazing food from this 1 Michelin star restaurant. The atmosphere is laid back though. Warmly recommended for a special occasion.

Lovely room Service great nice menu Food exceptional 6 plates for 3 people plus pudding each Possibly my best meal in 2023

Top 10 places in my heart ❤️ Everything is perfect

Big mistake. Taster menu took two hours and left us hungry. Steak was tough and we left it uneaten. Nothing memorable

One Michelin Star but should be more. A set menu that was thoughtful and stunning. Very inventive flavours through out and the first time that I have tried goose. Set in a historic building I thought our experience was first class in every aspect.

Had some of the best meals in my life here over the years.

Dinner at lyles was an INCREDIBLE treat. lyles delivered on delicious diverse food, an incredibly kind staff, cool vibe, and an impressive wine menu!! They went above and beyond for my birthday dinner and I cannot recommend this place enough.

Steph was a pure delight. Aside from the obvious, the service was incredible

Service was impeccable. Wine selection with dinner was well thought out & complemented each dish very well. We enjoyed discovering new vineyards & flavours. Would love to return. Highly recommend.

10/10, very creative dishes, very yummy, every course was very nice.

Delicious lunch, special mention for the hedgehog mushroom and sea bass

Everything was above our expectations. Will come back again, new fave restaurant in east london!

Visited for a casual lunch during the weekend. We ordered almost the whole menu, food was good in general, 1-2 very memorable dishes. Service and atmosphere were chilled. Table was quite tiny and uncomfortable.

Very disappointed....Lyle's was always on my list to try out, very excited when I walked in but very disappointed when I walked out with my friends. Staffs are rude and make you feel very uncomfortable.... they were trying to get the table back for next round customer by rushing us to eat. They literally keep checking on our table and as soon as our plates are empty they will take them away and serve our next course straightaway. We literally finish the first 4 courses in 30 mins.... For the price I paid, £130 ( with 1 glass of wine), the food is not that impressive and the service make it even worse. Not going back anymore.

Incredible food and great service. The prices as you would expect are top top end. The food always leaves you wanting more. Recommend as a treat.

E un ristorante stellato per cui ti aspetti ambiente e servizio di alto livello, onestamente moltissima gentilezza ma niente di più . Per il cibo francamente sono abituato probabilmente troppo bene dai ristoranti italiani ma io non ho colto alcunché di meritevole di menzione . Non ho mangiato male ma per 350 euro (con 1 bottiglia di vino discreta ) mi aspetterei qualcosa di “wow che bontà’” . Ma è nella classifica dei migliori 50 ristoranti al mondo quindi deduco che sia una mia mancanza .

It was good and I am edging close to 4/5. However I just felt for Michelin star restaurant it missed something. The first course was Oyster with pear. I love Oyster......there was one. I know its fine dining but that was like a tease, it felt mean, 2 would have been better.

our fav in london, love it (especially the mutton)

Absolutely first class. Brilliant food - the duck was just awesome, as were the hedgehog mushrooms - and a fabulous location. Outstanding service and a really great location. Every other diner looked like they were enjoying it immensely. This is is a must-visit place.

My partner and I visited your establishment yesterday to celebrate our anniversary, and we would like to express our gratitude for the thoughtful card provided; it was a lovely touch. Regrettably, I must admit that our overall experience was quite disappointing. We had the £95 set menu along with a bottle of the South African sparkling wine. The presentation of the nibbles was subpar, and the mullet exhibited a taste as if it had been left unattended for an extended period—lacking freshness. The pear nibble presented a peculiar flavor. The prawns were unsatisfactory, and the pollack dish was notably tasteless. The duck, unfortunately, proved to be quite chewy. The dessert, while acknowledging individual tastes, did not align with my preferences. The combinations appeared unusual. Considering the price point, we anticipated a more exceptional culinary experience with flavors that stand out. The only dish that resonated positively with both of us was the broth with chestnuts. Additionally, the discomfort of the seating arrangements was notable and detracted from our overall dining experience. On a positive note, we would like to point out that the staff are very friendly and accommodating. Given our experience, I we do not recommend and won’t return.

Gorgeous restaurant, service was stunning from start to finish. Well worth the trip

Lyle’s delivered the most perfect incredibly delicious food with impeccable and warm service in a great space- with the best home baked bread in London! My all time favourite restaurant in London!!!

Easily 10/5!!! This restaurant is a definitely must visit in London. We went to celebrate our sister's birthday there and everything was top notch. The food was very good, we genuinely enjoyed every single courses that came in the set. The service was extraordinary. Will definitely recommend everyone to give their restaurant a try! Thank you so much team
