Mercante in City of London, Westminster - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Ridoy was a great waiter! Great experience and service. Would recommend for the food, service, and overall atmosphere.

Absolutely AMAZING! This is one of if not my favorite restaurant while I’m visiting London. The waiters and waitress’ are super friendly, the food comes out quick, and the food is DELECTABLE! Spaghetti Carbonara: AMAZING! Margarita Pizza: DELICIOUS! I highly recommend coming if you are in the area!

Outstanding service and food! Great choices of food. Had dinner with family and friends, great space. Definitely will be back. We would like to try their Brunch…

Une carte très bonne, avec du choix, mais pas trop non plus, ce qui est souvent gage de qualité. Le tiramisu était à tomber par terre ! Le service très sympa malgré notre anglais approximatif ! Le cadre est magnifique et nous avons été très bien reçus.

Really great lunch - irina was the host with most - excellent service. Thank you She really took an awesome interest and explained the menu and took great care of us. Mo & Andrew

Great Italian food and host in London!

This restaurant is a real treat! I took a group of 16 people for a business social and it was as a huge success! The location is absolutely perfect, the food is beyond delicious - authentic Italian - and the staff was amazing! I would recommend it to anyone - I guarantee a fantastic experience!

Was really disappointed with Mercante, as I was expecting something great. It's just part of one of the large hotels in Mayfair (and I'd thought it was a standalone restaurant). I'd looked at the images on the reviews here and was expecting great things, but it was just a very poor standard. I had the chicken Milanese, it was half the size of the photos you see on here), with nothing on it (no lovely chopped tomatoes or fresh shavings of parmesan), with a few chips and rocket. I even had to chase down some parmesan to accompany the meal, and it was just spooned out of a jar. Also we got there about 9pm and it was totally dead; we were the only people in there.

I can’t say I really care for Mercante. It’s one of 3 restaurants attached to the Sheraton Park Lane hotel in Mayfair. I’ve eaten a few times here but when there is such good Italian food and breakfast in London, this is not an option for me. PRO: - Attached to Sheraton Park Lane hotel, there is convenience if you are staying here - Can charge it to your room if you are staying here and accrue Marriott loyalty points CON: Breakfast: The buffet isn’t very good. I’ve had sour juice here. The bacon was so overcooked it couldn’t be cut. The omelette is not a good alternative choice as it’s all egg - very stingy on the fillings. SUMMARY: When you are staying in a hotel you can get too tired to look for proper options. I wouldn’t do breakfast here (it’s the only breakfast from the 3 restaurants).

Great food, great service, great prices, carbonara and pizza rossa were delicious, our server was great.

Had the Risotto with mushrooms. It was good my daughter had the pizza. It was very good and I do recommend it. The atmosphere was pleasant and we were seated right away.

Lovely breakfast and best service. Thank you Sky!

Great service from James. Pleasant and professional- Numero Uno employee!

Nice breakfast, good selection of choices. Must try their freshly made omelet!

There idea of Italian food was way off base. I have tried Italian food from several reigns around the world and enjoyed their take on flavors but I just didn't understand what they were thinking!

Had a really good dinner at Mercante Restaurant, the fish and potatoes were really good and the wine was also nice. This is a good Italian restaurant and if you have the opportunity, go there.

I wanted to mention Mr. Pedro for his special service, he was smiling and happy for serving us, special thanks for him

Lovely food and great service. Thank you.

Cuisine excellent et service très professionnel

Breakfast, lunch, or dinner – having had each meal at this hotel resto at the Sheraton Grand London Park Lane was impressive, comfortable, and tasty, this combination is something that’s not common at many hotel eateries. Many mornings we began the day at an expansive window table overlooking passersby on Piccadilly and The Green Park across the street – great seats, wonderful view. Their Cappuccinos and Full English Breakfast was great too. Though their menu is not extensive, their renditions are good, especially the Fusilli Putanesca and Parmesan Arancini are extremely good, and very worthwhile. The atmosphere is modern, tasteful and the design is conducive to a mild din – where you can have a reasonably quiet conversation. Overall, from breakfast to lunch, to snacks, to evening meal, very good. Kudos to the Staff and Kitchen, well deserved.

Very tasty food and impeccable service

Passavo per caso d’avanti Mercante restaurant e ho letto sul menù fuori che servivano la colazione così sono entrato. Ad accogliermi è stata Alessandra con un enorme sorriso che subito mi ha fatto sentire a mio agio, Alessandra si è presa cura di me dall’inizio alla fine, i suoi caffè eccezionali mi hanno fatto sentire finalmente a casa. Mi ha consigliato di andare per il buffet così che potevo mangiare senza limiti a un prezzo fisso, buffet molto consistente, e il prezzo molto onesto per quello che offre. Raccomando e tornerò sicuramente. Grazie ancora Alessandra per la bella esperienza e il servizio super!

Excellent authentic Italian food! Great service too The apple pie and tiramisu are a must try !

Food’s not worth the money, but service makes up for it.

We were given a window seat aa this in house restaurant of the Sheraton Grand was very quiet at 18.45, rapid service and good food, bill for two courses and no wine was nearly £100 but, this is Park Lane with view over Hyde Park. Service was very attentive an accommodating. The restaurant was convenient for the show we were attending that evening in the same hotel, namely "The Magic Hour", also recommended. The menu highlighted allergens and Vegan offerings.

Bayıldım, şahane bir mekan, kahvaltı enfesti

Великолепный и недорогой итальянский ресторан в центре Лондона с видом на Греен парк. Очень приветливый персонал. Вкусная карбонара, с реальным разогретым при тебе пармезаном.

It was a surprise we found this restaurant by mistake and was absolutely amazing I recommend to come and enjoy the food the service was excellent Thanks Pedro to look after us you are amazing So kind and professional

Pedro really made our time here; great service, wine, appetizers and dessert.

Booked a table. Amazing staff. Treated us like royalty. Food was good too. Great location.

We had a fantastic time at Mercante thanks to Pedro's outstanding service and great spirit. He has been very friendly to our children.

Nestled in the heart of London's Sheraton Grand London Park Lane Hotel, Mercante is a hidden gem that takes diners on a culinary journey through the diverse regions of Italy. From the moment you step through the door, the warm and inviting atmosphere welcomes you in, making you feel as though you have been transported to a bustling Italian trattoria. The decor is simple yet elegant, with warm lighting & cosy booths. The menu at Mercante is a celebration of the diverse culinary traditions of Italy, featuring a range of classic dishes and modern interpretations. To start, we ordered Bruschetta, Fritto Misto and the burrata, which was served with fresh cherry tomatoes, basil, and a drizzle of balsamic glaze. The creamy cheese was so delicate that it practically melted in our mouths, and the sweet and tangy tomatoes complemented it perfectly. Next up was the pasta course, and we couldn't resist the CAVATELLI a classic seafood pasta dish. The homemade pasta was cooked to perfection, The pasta was perfect al dente, and the clams, mussels and prawns were tender and flavorful. For our main course, we opted for the fish of the day, a whole roasted seabream served with lemon, garlic, and herbs. The fish was cooked to perfection, with crispy skin and moist, tender flesh. We also tried the Pumpkin Gnocchi and the kids had their usual Margherita pizza. Throughout our dining experience at Mercante, the service was impeccable. Elia, Ivilin and Pedro were knowledgeable, attentive, and friendly, and Elia helped guide us through the menu with ease. In conclusion, Mercante is a must-visit restaurant for anyone looking for family-friendly authentic Italian cuisine in London. The food is excellent, the atmosphere is welcoming, and the service is top-notch. Whether you're in the mood for a cosy date night or a celebratory dinner with friends, Mercante is the perfect place to indulge in the flavours of Italy.

Great atmosphere but food quality and service is very poor...

Beautiful aesthetic however that’s where it ends. The meal and the service left much to be desired. The wait time for my meal was unnecessarily long for being one of 2 tables present, as well as the pretentious attitude of my server, as they tended to the table near me multiple times without a second return to mine for any update on my meal. When the meal was finally presented, the lead server requested to demonstrate for another employee. I agreed. At the end of his demonstration I was given a disheveled dish and told to “enjoy”. I had to request a second dish to transfer my items into so as to not feel as if I were eating at a market and given a small side plate. Please do not come here if you are expecting excellence. It certainly is far from.

my review is only about the staff, ad i didn’t had the opportunity to taste the dishes. I asked the lady at the front if they also do take away or just dine in. She said they did take away but suggested me to go to pret a manger bc the waiting was about 20 minutes. It was empty. I’ve waited for sure. I hope it was a misunderstanding. All in all 1/5 Mercante but 5/5 pret a manger 💪🏼

Ik heb hier heerlijk gegeten vandaag met me vriendin. Maar jammer dat zo rustig was desondanks vond ik dat ook wel fijn. Het leek beetje op een private diner goeie ervaring en we hadden niks te kort. Heel erg bedankt

I love the atmosphere in the place, we came before the theatre and we where late because of the amazing service, we didn’t want to live, food was really good, I’ll recommend the potato and truffle pizza and the fried zucchini as a side with some drops of Tabasco if you like spice and for sure an entire bottle of wine.

It was raining, they were warm, thank god for that ❤

Fabulous restaurant set in lovely surroundings. Service and food was excellent and in terms of value for money I was very pleasantly surprised how reasonable the prices were. Definitely recommend a visit

A very nice Italian restaurant. Overall good food a nice dishes. The place looks great and have a nice atmosphere.

Schönes Lokal - Personal schwach - essen gut - Steak Medium rar kam durch an den Tisch wurde ausgetauscht - alles in allem schön aber keine 5 Sterne

Fiance and I went for an impromptu dinner with a friend this evening and ended up here. The service was great and the food was exactly as I expected. Good quality Italian without a lot of pomp and circumstance!

Chose to have a work lunch here as the reviews looked decent. However I found the food to be disappointing. Nothing to rave home about. I think we ordered half the menu and it was unanimously average and perhaps that's why this place was empty besides our table during lunch hour on a Friday. My constructive critique for the kitchen is to revive the menu particularly with seasonal ingredients. The vegetarian options in particular could be improved, there was no vegetarian pasta option. Had to default to a pizza with essentially potatoes and a lot of cheese, it felt very heavy/ greasy and lacked flavourful. The halloumi bites were fried but also lacked any flavor, not seasoned on the inside, the sauce it came with was pretty boring. Even the staff had nothing to recommend when asked. I would say overall pretty average food and service, the reason I give this place a 2/5 is that I just expected better from a restaurant in this area.

Food was ok but the pasta was a little salty. Customer service was ok apart from when I asked for the bill they have forgotten to apply the offer discount which I was supposed to get. Nice venue and location.

Amazing Place, Great food, surprised there wasn’t any people at the restaurant although the food was absolutely amazing 🤩! Would recommend.

Great everything! Food, staff and area. 4/5

Look ages to get food, then lied to me about why it was late. Won’t be coming back

Very nice place to get Italian food. Pasta was nice. Stuff is amazing. We had a really good experience

Very nice food and good service

The food was absolutely beautiful, me and my partner went for our anniversary and I couldn’t recommend this restaurant enough! The service was excellent and the food was phenomenal.

So apparently this restaurant closes at 6pm on Sunday afternoon, not as what it says online. We made a reservation at 18:00 on 19th Sep, received a confirmation email, travelled all the way down to London, and found a closed door at 18:00. After knocking on quite several door, a staff finally came out reluctantly and said the restaurant was closed and we could find something to eat elsewhere if we want. Such a good service. Bravo!

Food 4/5. Service 5/5. Ambience 5/5. Lovely Italian restaurant with good quality food and great service.

Nice place, smart , nice staff and very good food.

Calidad precio buena. Es una opcion popular para comer Italia o en Londres

Food was delicious, the staff very friendly.

Just wanted to share our amazing experience we had at Mercante the other week. From the very beginning the service was up to scratch starting from showing us a table and finishing with the meal and desserts. We had an eight-course tasting menu with matching wines, and I found it really interesting how an executive chef Max was coming out on the floor to explain a dish. It was a special occasion which the staff was aware of, and we were treated exactly that way. The food was honestly stunning, the plating, the taste and escalation. Myself, I work in catering customer service industry, so no need to say, thay not intentionally I always judge by high standards. Really well done to the team working on the night and I look forward to coming back.

Unicado en el hotel Sheraton Picadilly en la PB. La decoración es sosa, nada fuera de lo común. Tiene comedor principal (área de no fumar) y una pequeña terraza (área de fumar) El servicio es bueno y eficiente. La comida y su presentación, no está a la altura de sus precios.

High quality Italian food with great service and atmosphere

It was a quite night here only 5 tables... Staff were very lovely and friendly. Food was also very good. With a really nice selection of very exciting dishes. Portion sizes were a little on the small side. I would definitely recommend and will be going back.... Thank you for a wonderful evening. R

Tasty food amazing hospitality definitely deserves another visit!! Make sure ur hungry portions are very good!!

If you want wonderful Italian cuisine, nice atmosphere and pay less than you could expect, Mercante is right place to come. Especially for lunch. Try pasta, try coffee, try fish (!)

Service was outstanding, nice location, the food was pretty good but not great.

Good quality of food, and the service was excellent!

The food quality is amazing, so tasty and well seasoned! Highly recommendable!

Great food and service. Throughly recommend.

Lovely bottomless brunch. Service could be a little slow at times but overall was really good.

Average food with high prices, plus service was quite poor. They forgot one of the mains and didn’t even apologise instead making up an excuse. Then while I was still eating my main, cleared everyone else’s plates and put down dessert menus - not what you expect in Mayfair.

Cucina italiana al top gentilissimo il personale veramente professionale in modo particolare Laura ed Alessandro.

This restaurant has been a great surprise. I went for brunch and choose the menu with 3 courses and bottomless Prosecco. The food was really good and the staff super friendly. I highly recommend it!

absolutley unreal italian experience. 5* service!! would 100% recommend.

Had proscuitto& parmesan platter, salmon, chicken milanese & burrata with tomatoes. Beautiful food, well priced & great service. Casual yet elegant atmosphere

Very good food and breakfast.. Nice staff

Delicious food, Good atmosphere & Great service. MOHAMED was extremely nice, helpful & friendly. It was our wedding anniversary and we had a special one. J. KM

Just a lovely place. Delicious food, excellent service and a beautiful place. Many thanks.

Took my gf here for her birthday meal, food was amazing, drinks were great and staff was amazing

Amazing lasagne. Great service and good quality prosecco. So happy to be back.

I have traveled extensively and I have been trying different restaurants, and Mercante Is particularly good. Place and service are above most of the restaurants I have been in London. Pricewise is very affordable and the quality of the food is superb. I'm having it as one of my favourite restaurants in the city.

Tasty Italian adjacent to the Sheraton Park Lane. Service is both refined and friendly. Nice patio in the front to watch the world walk by on Piccadilly.

The food was spot on. The service was amazing. The sea bream and the pannacotta was outstanding. I went for a bottomless brunch and the service & food was better than expected. Definitely would recommend

The food is Fantastic and prices are great!

Staff have been friendly and attentive, I could not of asked for better staff. The meal was lovely and they did top ups for our bottomless very efficiently. The music and interior is very nice also

Sehr zuvorkommend, gutes Essen

Nice decor and food. Reasonably priced

Nice restaurant and nice meal, had a 3 course groupon and was good value for money

Good service and nice appetizers of olives, parmesan, and Parma ham for a late night snack.

Good quality of food overall but the quantity is quite small. The ambience is very cozy with jazz music 🎶

Nice and cosy place. Good traditional food

Casual restaurant in a good location serving some delicious Italian food whilst giving great service.

Loved this Italian restaurant, the linguine vongole was superb! Having lived 3 years in Rome, think to know how it should taste and it was on par. The decor of the restaurant is modern with Italian touches. Great place for lunch, ask for the lunch menu 2 course £15, 3 course £19 is very reasonable!

Great deal with cocktails! Food is really good

Very good brunch. Excellent service - friendly and speedy in a nice, modern but not too formal dining room.

Food here is just soso. Unsure if it is the best place to spend your money

I cannot recommend their prosecco brunch anymore. Absolutely fantastic service..very friendly and attentive but not over the top. We have come for the free flowing prosecco three course brunch. I've not once sat an waited for a drink, constantly being topped up. There is a 90 minute limit on this but honestly that's enough! The food really is great and the bubbles (to be enjoyed 3 ways) is beautiful! Would absolutely come here again!!

Nice restaurant, nice food, nice service

Amazing food , professional and friendly staff and lovely atmosphere

Second time been to this restaurant for bottomless brunch , the waiting staff are amazing and attentive and the food is brilliant

Excellent service and great food

Fantastic service. Definitely unlimited prosecco for more than the allocated time

Went for their bottomless brunch on Sunday. The food and service were superb especially so from Alexandro. Would definitely back

Fancy and overpriced but great quality and friendly environment.
