The peaches in the peach salad were hard as rock (and were not caramelized as the menu stated) and the rest of the salad mediocre. The himachi was decent but very skimpy for 25 pounds. The linguine with prawns was good but the tortellini was terrible, one bite of the whitefish a bit suspect. What Italian doesn’t give free bread to soak up the extra sauce? It doesn’t even need to be good bread! Portions were all small and overpriced. Room is nice but two extraordinarily ugly photographs are difficult to look at. Waiter was very nice but what the manager did was appalling. I went to the bathroom and then came back. My friend then went to the bathroom and was followed out, accused of leaving without paying the bill. Seriously who would do that? They said they didn’t see me come back. Is this really a problem? We were quite upset. Manager apology was incredibly lame. Restaurant was mostly empty. It is in serious need of major changes.

My friend, Sharon and I came to experience Whitcomb's on Sunday 1st September 2024, it had come highly recommended by a few friends. The Veuve Cliquot terrace was a joy to sit in while waiting for my lunch date to arrive. I had a glass of Veuve (Yellow Label, of course) and the staff were friendly and helpful. Lunch was served inside the restaurant and our server, Rippon, was knowledgeable about the menu - we settled for Escargots, King Prawns Linguine and the triple pressed Rosemary Fries were a dream! The Veuve Cliquot terrace was such fun that we repaired to it for Dessert and some more champagne. If you are looking for laidback, Sunday close enough to the hustle and bustle of Leicester Square, yet cozy enough to not be distracted by it, then may I suggest Whitcomb's at the Londoner, oh and you must leave space for the Dessert Menu - trust me, you will be glad you did!

We had a drink on the Terrace and the staff could not be more welcoming and so charming and professional. For example, I noticed finger marks on my glass (holding it up to the sunlight) which I did not draw attention to. In a flash the glasses were both replaced with squeaky clean glasses. This was due to attention to the customer. Would definitely visit again.

I decided to try here on a Sunday night: the room very much seems like it is just a corner room of a hotel but the food and service were great;only had two courses (snails with nduja butter followed by pan fried sea bass with chips (which were infinitely better than the average chip served in restaurants these days) but both were very good. Service was also excellent: I doubt I will ever stay at The Londoner but if I’m looking for something to eat in this area, id definitely think about going back here.

This is my second time and I'm really impressed with all Aspects. Very comfortable seating. Airy attractive room, lighting just right and you can hear yourself and your guests speak. Amazing service. Clever mouth watering menu with creative quirks that work seamlessly I tasted everyone's dishes and all were Absolutely delicious. My only aside is that the chef needs to lighten up on the amount of salt used and some of the desserts are a bit too fussy. The crumble though was stunning. If you're seeing a play or movie in the area this is a must for before or after meal. 🌻🪷

Worst dining experience so far. We booked a table for Valentine's Day, and it was the worst possible choice, we really regretted it. Terrible service with an unpleasant hostess who was serving at the same time. We certainly arrived a few minutes late (impossible to contact them to notify them because they don't answer the phone) but not a smile, no friendliness. We were then seated at a table next to each other without any privacy and all this in a dark atmosphere as the light barely illuminated our tables. Then comes the meal... a starter and then a 1.5 hour wait to get what's next, our table neighbors had the same experience and had to stay in this restaurant for 3 hours in order to get through their endless evening, Other neighbors even left without having eaten because the wait was so long. Understaffed, the evening team was constantly in a rush and had the luxury of being unpleasant. We left this dinner frustrated before dessert because there was concrete abuse there. For this price we expect at least a minimum of consideration. Food was just ok. Thank you all the same to Louise who took over the service and who was the most professional and friendly during this long evening. To avoid, we are also very surprised by the number of positive reviews.

To start, let me be clear the food here is good and what you'd expect for the price. Unfortunately there are many other places within walking distance where the food is good, and at those you will get a matching level of good service. The service here really let it down. We had most our courses come out whilst our dirty dishes were still on our table. The waiter with the tray of food would stand around waiting for another waiter to come over, remove the dirty dishes and then find new sets of cutlery. The whole time we can see our food standing next to the table. The waiters predominantly spoke on whispers making it extremely hard to hear them. Lastly when the bill came the waiter asked if we wanted a card machine and said he would be right back with it. Around 15 minutes later with no sight of our waiter we had to flag down another one to pay. This is already after having to flag down someone to bring the bill, which was not easy given how rarely it felt like a waiter was anywhere close to the table. Unfortunately, the food here although good is nothing to shout about compared to the rest of the good food in London and I won't be going back considering the other experiences I can get at a similar price point.

This is a nice restaurant away from the hussle and bussle that is Leicester Square. The service was fine although a little intrusive at times as was the background music. Our starters were a bit bland and overpriced (e.g. £7 for small basket of bread). Likewise our mains were quite small but were very well executed and actually very tasty indeed. Overall, it's a reasonable place to dine if you are in the area but there's definitely room for improvement.

I also loved that we were able to get in and out in about 90 minutes while having an amazing, high quality meal with excellent service. A true rarity. I'm sure you can drag it out longer if you wanted to, but this was perfect for what we were looking for.

The experience in overall was great. Definitely recommend for a night out with your mates. The atmosphere is very nice and trendy. The food was good: the risotto was buttery and you could taste the truffle (compared to other restaurants), the tortellini were surprising with a mix of oil and acid touches. In general, great textures and a good combination of flavors but some dishes were not worth the price. The service was a bit slow (waited for more than 40minutes to get the main dish after the starters).

Bien situado, en la planta baja del hotel. Ambiente acogedor con decoración moderna en tonos oscuros . Hicimos reserva el día anterior , pero a pesar de ello, nos hicieron esperar 45 min, y con las bebidas servidas pretendieron cambiarnos a otra mesa más pequeña para acomodar a otros comensales. No fuimos capaces de entender la mala gestión ni el descaro y la falta de respeto hacia nosotros, imperdonable, y peor si no se atreven a hacerlo con otros clientes. Pretendieron compensarlo con unas copas de champán y dulces. ( es decir, reconocen que lo hicieron muy mal) Sin cervezas nacionales (otro fallo para un restaurante que vende lujo y categoría) La comida bien emplazada pero escasa. Defraudados.

This restaurant is situated inside the Londoner Hotel, for me the most beautiful boutique hotel that I found in London. The staff is very well knowledge, and service is very attentive. The food was well presented and full of flavour. Cocktails are very simple presented and very tested. Dessert is to die for, just explosion of flavour in your mouth from the start to the end. I very recommend it, is a good culinary experience.

A surprisingly great experience, the food is so well done that I can't criticise it. I usually can about these things. Ingredients were great, everything was fresh and it was mixed together to subtle perfection of the way the ingredients balance each other and where cleverly done. The food was even better than I expected, even with the high ratings on here. The service was so friendly and they genuinely did everything they could to be kind and helpful. It's a bit of a ghost town on a Sunday evenings so I can't recommend it for that, but I'm guessing it's busy at other times.

Breakfast at Whitcomb’s was a perfect way to begin every day in London. Every morning began with a friendly greeting by Olivier, and the entire staff provided a warm welcome and impeccable service. The buffet was far above any typical hotel buffet. It was comprised of fresh pressed juices, French pastries, charcuterie, French yogurts, tropical fruits, and more. Then there were the hot entrees, also included. Even the simple scrambled eggs were extraordinarily delicious. The eggs Benedict had a lightly truffled Hollandaise. And the coffees were exactly as ordered. The perfect start to any day is at Whitcombs! A gem of a place.

We discovered this restaurant a year ago and it’s become by far our favourite restaurant in London. It’s just a 10/10 in every aspect you can think of. The place is very elegant and the atmosphere is something else (especially when there’s the pianist playing and singing live). The service is absolutely outstanding, they take care of every single detail and waiters are very well trained on fine dining service (special mention to Ripon who was our waiter last time and he was the absolute best and kindest! And to Olivier, the lunch manager who we met towards the end of our lunch). And food is just out of this world, you can pick any dish from the menu and you won’t go wrong but I can’t recommend enough the mushroom risotto, the filet mignon and their layered potato fries. Also, they used to serve some bread with chicken butter that was absolutely amazing! Unfortunately they don’t serve it anymore but we hope they add it to the menu!

Difficult to understand the positive reviews for this place. The food was distinctly underwhelming - small portions and very ordinary ingredients. I left hungry. However the worst aspect was the service which, though friendly, was hopelessly incompetent (15% surcharge notwithstanding). For example, we were asked to order desserts immediately, together with our starters and mainsz and the server was surprised when I asked if we could order them later instead. We then had to order them before our mains were cleared away. Drinks took ages to arrive, sparkling water was brought instead of still (both at £6.30 with service), the wine list is only an approximation of what is actually available, and the wine was served much too warm. All small issues in themselves but there was a general strong impression that the staff simply had no idea what they were doing, which made the while experience much less enjoyable and relaxing than it should have been. We regularly eat in leading London restaurants and sadly this one gets things badly wrong. We will certainly not return.

Whitcomb's Restaurant at The Londoner Hotel is a great place to eat in Leicester Square. Whether you are a tourist exploring the sights of Leicester Square, or a local working in the area, you will find something to suit your taste and budget at this cosy and relaxing restaurant. The food is delicious. We had steak tartar, beef carpaccio and calamari for starters, and fillet mignon, grilled rib-eye steak and grilled chicken for mains. Everything was cooked to perfection and served with a smile. The service is equally impressive, with friendly and attentive staff who make you feel welcome and valued. The waiters are knowledgeable and helpful, the managers are courteous and professional, and the chefs are talented and passionate. They all work together to ensure that you have a memorable dining experience. The restaurant itself is cosy, relaxing and comfortable, with a warm and inviting atmosphere.

From the sliced pieuvre to the tarte au citron pasding by the lobster it was fantastic also the wine was to die for! Kids (teens) were happy too. My friend had as main the canneloni, frankly it was too thick but when we explained the issue. The team offered the exchange for anything but she was already full so they offered a huge portion of the beignets dessert (free of charge of course) and deduced her main. It can seems obvious to be heard when raising issue but it is not always so simple in some other places. Anyways most of our plates were fantastic, the atmosphere and the service are formidable.

After enjoying a wonderful a la carte menu, we immediately made reservations for the pre-theater menu two days later. The service is excellent and professional. The a la carte menu is excellent. Unfortunately, the fish on the pre-theater menu was seared a little too hot....

Faultless Service. From the moment you walked in, you felt like you were the only one being served. The wait staff were very attentive and knowledgeable. The food was perfectly presented and the meal itself was incredible. We had the fillet mignon, it was so...

Services and variety is delightful. As hotel guests at the Londoner for a week we had the chance to enjoy Ripon’s attentive, personal service.

The restaurant is lovely, decor and interactions with Brian our server were fantastic, a wonderful guy. However our two vegan guests who ordered from the vegetarian menu were served risotto with cheese on it even though the menu didn’t have it on it. This meant they didn’t have their food whilst the other guests ate. Missing items were not served. And audaciously after the meal was cleared the missing items were presented as if they would be received without their accompanying dishes without complaint. The food is great but the coordination expected from a restaurant was noticeably lacking. With competition on their doorstep offering equal fare Whitcomb’s lack or organisation will leave it out in the cold.

Fantastic staff but felt that drinks were overpriced. We had a cocktail to start our birthday celebration. Delicious as they were I was surprised at the very small glass, and we paid £12 for it. Also our wine was decanted in to a 500ml carafe yet we still paid £29. Portion sizes were small too although very tasty.

I chose the Whitcombes for special occasion and I really loved the warming atmosphere. The service and staff are Phenomenal! ( Bryan was serving us he is 10/10) About the food it was ok, we tried sea bass and Filet Mignon with frites & Epinards aux noisettes. As for us we find the sauce is too much, because of it we couldn’t be able to finish and enjoy our food ( I would say it’s better to serve it on the side and let the customers decide how much to add ) plus we think the chef want to give us hypernatremia😂😂😂 even the dessert have a seasalt on it 😅 but as it was a special day for us we don’t want anything to spoil our day so we chose to leave smiling 😊 Above everything I’ve never been happy about the 15% service charge I paid wherever but this place…they deserve it.

This is our favourite Cote, Kamil (general manager), Kasia (front of house manager) and team all work so hard and are customer focused. Yesterday we visited to celebrate my birthday. Warmly welcomed by Kasia and shown to the table I’d requested online. We were given complimentary drinks (I’d received an email as I signed up for the Cote newsletter which I recommend doing) by Kamil (thank you again). We had the Prix Fixe menu which is great value for money. Between us we had the Salad au Bacon, Poulet Grille with optional upgrade of triple cooked chips, Kamil explained and apologised that as a supplier had let them down they could offer my friend pan fried salmon instead of mackerel which my friend had and we shared a chocolate mousse! All were delicious. I was further spoilt by a brownie, ice cream and candle on a dish saying happy birthday! Thank you it as do lovely. The team here are an absolute asset to Cote! Thanks again to Kamil, Kasia and the staff here, we cannot wait to return next year!

We enjoyed a pleasant lunch at Cote, chose combination of starters and sides. The cheese soufflé and broccoli garlic were particularly good. Nice selection of wines, chose a muskadet which was lovely. The staff were particularly helpful and pleasant.

I went to Paris Grill this evening with some work colleagues as a farewell treat for my retirement. All of the staff we're very attentive but not over the top. Their service was top notch. I chose the Steak tartare, which was prepared at the table by Didier, and it was superb. My colleagues all enjoyed their food too, including the wine from a quite extensive and reasonably priced cave. The ambience was very business like but still very pleasant. The waiting staff were extremely polite and efficient. Overall a very enjoyable experience. Price wise very reasonable. Would I recommend Paris Grill to others? Most definitely. If I was pushed to find a fault with anything, it would be that we didn't have linen napkins, but that is just nit picking. We had a lovely evening so my rating would have to be a 9.99/10
