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

What a wonderful experience. Staff were so courteous and attentive, food was amazing. Lovely atmosphere. When we had finished eating they presented me with Birthday cake. Had the best time, would not hesitate to return. Highly recommend

Excellent meal full of flavour and texture in every bite. We opted for the Grand Tour menu which was a whopping 17 courses. My only criticism is towards dessert, palate fatigue started creeping in. Otherwise wine pairing was great and service was exceptional.

Amazing textures and flavours with every course ..the playfulness of the starters on traditional foods won me over from the start.. the chocolate and caviar dessert was absolutely divine ..definitely something I wouldn't have dreamed go together

Saturday night taste menu a attack on your senses with a very varied menu of Japanese influences which with a touch of usa the hush puppies mess with your mouth a stand out dish you just have try a whole dinner of this would and would make me happy can't complain at this experience for my first Michelin stared restaurant thank you to all the staff for their first class service they make the it special and happy to explain all the dishes and meeting the chef patron victor garvey a bit pricey for the evening but I will be talking about this for the rest of my life

A sad end to my SoLa experience. I've been coming to SoLa since it began and have always enjoyed the exciting dishes it offered. Sadly, after last nights meal in this newly refurbished restaurant with a now decidedly unpleasant aroma to it, I won't be returning again. It's pretty clear the prices are being hiked to eye watering levels: 20% service charge, £12 for a bottle of still water, £25 for four (you got five for that much in February) tiny slivers of forgettable cheese and not a wine by the glass under £30. I can accept a lot of things but the food would have to be stellar, it really wasn't sadly. I last came here in May 2023 and the main was Squab, and it was again last night. Seriously, there are other meats, but this time it was so pretentiously presented and lacking that I didn't know whether to eat it or laugh at it. It's a tasting menu I know, but I had Pigeon at Le Gavroche and Alex Dilling straight after last years meal here and they were light years ahead of the dish then, and this one now. The canapés have changed and they're individually presented with varying degrees of niceness. The rest of the tasting courses were good to not so. The signature Langoustine is still a spectacle and is great. The Sashimi was nice too and the Mayan Red dessert, but the rest, including bland cheeses, were not. The Devilled Egg, I don't recall having it before but it just tasted of egg, no kick or fire. The tasting menu is £139 for what is essentially five courses plus five canapés, optional Cheese course (that can be as high as £45 supplement) and petit four. Service was friendly with one mistake, but I wasn't charged for it; but that aroma that hits you when you walk in. It was lingering all through and was strange. It isn't pleasant and I almost left to begin with. The old layout had an open kitchen so it can't be that. Anyway, just one more reason I won't be returning. Apologies all, I know cost of living has made things tough but there is much better value and quality out there still compared to SoLa.
