Wild Tavern in Kensington and Chelsea

Tuvimos una comida increíble en The Wild Tavern! La lingüina de langosta fue la mejor que he probado – rica, sabrosa y perfectamente cocinada. La ensalada de alcachofas a la parrilla también fue un sobresaliente, fresco y delicioso. Me encantan los tiramisús de pistacho especiales. Gran ambiente y excelente servicio. Sin duda volveré!

Прекрасный итальянский семейный ресторан . Были днем в воскресенье , с детьми . Полная посадка . Обязательная резервация ! Паста выше всяческих похвал ! Сервис прекрасный , вежливый и очень быстрый ! Почему то нет пиццы (а может мы ее не заметили) , но это можно пережить )

Este es un gran lugar no solo es bullicioso, sino que la carta de vinos es espectacular y la comida es increíble - comida italiana, pero con el lujo adicional de ostras frescas o gambas - probamos una tarde para una copa de vino sentado fuera con vistas a una pequeña plaza encantadora y terminamos quedándonos para una botella y algunas ostras. Volvimos la noche siguiente para la cena de boloñesa especial y lingüini de cangrejo y ambos dieron en el lugar. El servicio fue excelente y el personal es brillante, especialmente Eli y Ella. Incluso me enviaron de vuelta mi corbata que accidentalmente había dejado atrás - lo que no le gusta de un lugar como este - no te decepcionará

The worst restaurant experience last night for my birthday The waitress was insisting that we should take starters as we would be waiting between 40 mn to an hour for the steaks that the 5 of us had ordered.. Hard to believe it should take so long when it takes minutes to cook proper steaks When finally the steaks arrived at our table, just 1 hour later, they were cold. We had to send them back. When they returned, they were looking pathetic, black, very overcooked (I had requested my Chateaubriand blue) and not very much warmer, but not appetising nor tasty, nor tender! We had ordered : 1) 650 gr prime UK Chateaubriand. 2) sirloin 400 gr. 3) 700 gr USDA sirloin. We felt also the portions we got on the plates were quite small. Altogether a very disappointing meal, not cheap (276 £ just for the 3 steaks)… and that was only half the price of the bill. We had ordered bread which was abominably salty and we were told that all bread would be the same when asked for replacement, Very expensive, not a good service, no attention whatsoever However,It takes all sorts.... I shall remember this birthday for sure

Stopped by for a glass of wine. Service was very friendly and prompt but their pours are tiny (this was 175 ml) and not worth £17+. It felt like a rip-off.

It is very rare that I rate a restaurant with as ‘poor’. And that while the food was actually excellent and the price/quality good (for the Chelsea area that is). So why? The unfriendly, rude and nervous Manager told us at 11:55 that he needed to table at 12:20 (while our online brunch reservation clearly stated from 11:45 - 13:15). While this can happen it was the way he said it. Even taking off one of the drinks would have done the trick. But he seemed a person who just didn’t get it. So quite disappointing and, given this experience, we will not go frequent this place any longer ( a shame as we live in the neighbourhood).

Wild Tavern is a nice restaurant with a good ambiance and great wine list. Bonuses for a vegan as you are restricted to a few side dishes.

What a restaurant, with excellent service and food to die for I couldn’t recommend the restaurant more. Lucia looked after us with five star service and you have to finish with the Canoli.

Perfec place for everyday gourmet dinner. I love the ceviche with seafood, tartare with shrimps, agnolotti e tartufi… the Napoleon dessert is to die for…for my very chic friend from London this is the Number One place…enjoy!!

I had burrata and Pasta alla Norma. Burrata was good, but pasta alla Norma was not even close to the original one. we asked for spaghetti alle vongole for kids aged 4 and 5 and there was a lot of Chili peppers.

Had lunch at Wild Tavern with friends and it was everything one could wish for. The restaurant has a relaxed and cosy vibe, warm and inviting. Slightly rustic like a tavern indeed, but elevated to the Chelsea spirit. We followed our waiter’s recommendations and shared some exceptional dishes from the raw bar, starters and of course the homemade pasta. Tartares of kingfish and sicilian red prawns were superb: perfectly seasoned, with main ingredient being the king, just like it should be. Also loved their tortello with oxtail and paccheri with white fish & saffron. We couldn’t leave without trying cannoli - a slightly different take on one of my fav desserts, and what a delight! 10/10, will definitely come back.

Very good food, not oversofisticated or pretentious. Service was quite good too. Some ot he drinks are severely overpriced! 18£ fro a spritz is just ludicrous ever for Chelsea.

Excellent in every way! Been there 3 times on 3 different visits to London recently and we'll be going back again in June. Bravo! I'm not mad about "pulled" meat and for spaghetti bolognese I prefer minced meat - just saying. I would not order that again for that reason. The rack of lamb is sublime. The chilli cocktail is sublime but too small.......... Have a heart ♥️ we love your restaurant and would come every week if we could afford it!

Best food in London so far (moved a year and tried many different places, also Michelin starred). The atmosphere is nice and cozy with real fireplace and lots of wood. Waiters are really kind, the one who served me gave me the best advice as I had tortello with wagyu ox tail which was simply delicious, tasty and well cooked, al dente as we like it in Italy! After that I had sardinian cannoli as dessert which was really amazing, made with love I would say. Prices are not low but at least you leave the place satisfied, it doesn't happen very often in London! I'll come back for sure with my family, well done Wild Tavern!

We had not planned to eat at the Wild Tavern, so we didnt have a booking. But Julia welcomed us and found my husband and me a place to sit and eat at the bar - so glad we stayed as it was one of the best evenings out we have had in a long time. The combination of excellent, friendly service and great food was truly remarkable. Julia and Marco were attentive and knowledgeable, providing excellent recommendations from their signature cocktails, wines and the menu. The food was delicious! Every dish we ordered was expertly prepared, presented and enjoyable. The general manager Chrispin took the time to talk with us, ensuring our experience was enjoyable. The whole atmosphere was great, and I recommend sitting at the bar, where you get to be part of everything happening. Finally, the service was outstanding. Regardless of whether they were serving you, every staff member was friendly, attentive and ensured our needs were met. The food was served promptly, and our drinks were never empty - you must try the signature cocktails. In conclusion, I highly recommend Wild Traven for a memorable dining experience with excellent service and exceptional food.

I sadly could not agree more with the majority of the reviews here. I think this place has some sort of identity crisis as the waiters behave like snobs and try to blend in with their expectation of Chelsea people, which is sad. No, we are not stuck up and are all very normal. Their personality only seem to warm through once given the chance to act like a normal waiter. This place looks like a pub yet has a price point over Cipriano or LPM. The price point is beyond me. Yes it is displayed on the menu, yes I appreciate your ingredients (although to be expected, excuse me if I pay £259 for a lunch for two it better be and that is with merely a “carafe” of wine). But it is the third time we visited (twice as a couple and once with friends) and I simply can’t get over this overwhelmingly strong feeling of being robbed every single time. I don’t mind the bill, but it left me feeling reeling because it just seems so out of order for the the whole thing. The experience, the food, the service. It is just not worth it. The food is good. The chefs are trying hard. Perhaps too hard? Perhaps £28 pasta dishes don’t work if you are ordering starters, main and dessert? Is it a sharing concept? Is it a restaurant? A pub? What is it? I think it is pleasant enough. That’s why we returned three times but sadly this was the last time that I could stomach the feeling of being robbed and the walk afterwards where we are trying to figure out what we spent hundreds of pounds on? I think you need to have a long hard think.

Italian classics, served by proficient staff, in a welcoming gastro-pub / restaurant atmosphere, at absurd prices, to a clientele of Made in Chelsea extras and their parents.

First, let me introduce myself as a foodie who knows her food inside out and does not fall for Michelin stars or Postcode traps. I do know my food. And I do know service. I am equally happy in praising a shack or a food truck as I am in any other Haute CAusine establishment. What I do not like is being jipped. That gets me every- single- time, and that is why I am writing this. I am not a happy customer. So here is the good news: -Nice Ambiance -Best Cannoli I have ever tried What was just about OK -The Seabass ceviche -The Pear and avocado salad Everything else -Service is questionable at it's best -Prices are EXORBITANT, borderline ridiculous. A steak will set you back £90, and it's not even that amazing. -The wine starts at 15/20 pounds a glass for something quite mediocre -The pasta is dull, and the overall menu limited No Wild tavern, this is not OK. You do not have a Michelin star and never will; you should note how many restaurants in that spot went bust as they were charging the same crazy prices and people just stopped coming.

Great vibe to start with as you enter. Good service as they showed knowledge of the dishes. Attentive to the customers needs and comments even if it was discreet. Mustafa is the man to look for when you are there as he was amazing.

Great food and atmosphere . Big pasta selection , loved the truffle tagliolini . White truffle to go for at this time of the year ! Definetly visiting again .

Loved the vibrant yet cozy atmosphere. Cocktails were unique and delicious. Service excellent. I ordered one of the pasta specials. I probably should have asked more specifics. “Lemon ricotta ravioli” ..I envisioned those tastes in a light creamy white sauce. It was actually a tomato based dish with very smoky bacon. Not the taste I expected when the only description was “lemon ricotta ravioli “. Again, I probably should have asked for more specifics, but I would expected a Michelin restaurant to be more thorough in their description of their dishes.

This is the perfect place for a wonderful dining experience. Fantastic food, amazing service and efficient, friendly, knowledgeable staff. Nothing was too much trouble and to be honest I’d eat here every single day if I could! Perfection.

I imagine that there is a market for this kind of place somewhere but it’s certainly not in the real world. Not even in Chelsea. Poor service by staff who don’t know their **** from their elbow and food which would be acceptable if was...

A great location. Great room. Food was good. Good service. Should be a good review. But way too expensive. I know there is inflation but this place charges too much for the experience .

Randomly visited this restaurant due to its visual appeal but sadly we didn’t get to experience the fare given the dreadfully embarrassing service by an argumentative waiter. When sharing the specials he just read them from the blackboard, not from memory. Then when reading back...

We visited the Wild Tavern for a leisurely beverage on a sunny August afternoon. We were shown to a lovely outside table and were quickly given their cocktail menu and wine list which portrayed a seasonal selection of fresh and enticing cocktails. My friend and...

This place is eye watwringly expensive, which is fine if it has 2 or 3 Michelin stars, but it doesn’t and never will. The service is mediocre, the food unimaginative and over priced, with cuts of beef and pasta doing the hard work instead of...

This is a gorgeous little find tucked behind the kings road. The bread was lovely and fresh and the pasta was simply delicious. The truffle tagliolini was perfect - beautifully fresh, simple yet delicious truffle. The scallops were also extremely good. Service was brilliant and...

Treated with respect and polite attentiveness by Lawrence, whilst sitting at the bar for drinks. Very impressive and welcoming experience and will be returning. Great value for money

Fabulous pasta, beef and generally an all round excellent produce very well prepared. The service is efficient and pleasant. Yes it is pricy but worth every penny.

Friendly atmosphere alongside fantastic food. The wine list was absolutely lovely. If in Chelsea please don’t forget to visit this place.

My dinner in wild tavern was lovely. Amazing food, fantastic staff. I also got a surprise cake to celebrate my birthday. Thank you very much

Very welcoming staff, delicious food with an efficient service. We loved the atmosphere and the area. We will come back!

The wild tavern is a amazing restaurant that has every thing you need the staff are very friendly and they took good care of us and the food and alcohol is out of this world it was easy to book and the Desserts omg the...

Lovely atmosphere. I found the menu slightly limiting (as a vegetarian) however saying that the dishes we ordered were delicious. It is very clear that high quality ingredients are used.

I have visited a few days ago with my friend. We had a table reserved for an early dinner at 6pm and were really surprised when on a nice and sunny day we were seated inside, considering all the tables outside were empty. We had...

New place. Opened instead of Japanese restaurant. Worked shortly between two lockdowns. Reopened as soon as restaurant terraces were allowed to work. Good trained staff. Quick enough. Fully booked even for a lunch. Food is average. Simple. Tasty, but not delicious. Very overpriced and you...

Really friendly atmosphere, great selection of spirits, incredible food without the pretence. Highly recommend.

I would rate this a 3.5 out of 5 but computer won’t let me! I was very excited about having lunch here the other day-it was perfectly good, but I left feeling it could have been great but just misses. The space is smartly decorated...

We visited for lunch on a Sunday, and were seated in a comfy booth with plenty of space. The two of us ordered the squid and scallops to start, then a rib eye steak to share with some sides, and finally the crocantino and tiramisu...

Wild Tavern is in Elystan Street and Chelsea Green and has replaced several awful pubs and restaurants that were on the site over the years. it is run by Crispin a very efficient an knowledgeable chap. I ate a Ceviche of Wild Seabass and mouth-wateringly...

I have been to this wonderful new eatery, a short walking distance from Kings Road, a few times before the COVID-19 fell upon London. The people who created this wonder are very experienced and creative, and it shows: everything there is fabulous, from the sensual...

Due to the situation with covid most places are closed. Some are starting to reopen and offer delivery or collection only. My BF and I have decided that as places start to open, to try and to support independents rather than chains and we stubbled...

We were really looking forward to trying Wild Tavern, the latest in a series of restaurants over the past few years in this location, as we live very near Chelsea Green. Unfortunately, however, it was a disappointing experience. The décor and ambience are very nice...

The restaurant is priced for excellence, and indeed serves some very good ingredients, but the outcome disappoints. The decor and atmosphere are good, the staff are willing (though customers being completely ignored upon leaving is rather poor). Service is on the slow side. The wine...

An ok experience but marked margins to improve. We ate here for the first time having seen it open recently. The setting is cosy and the restaurant has a good atmosphere. Moreover the location is great in the heart of more local Chelsea. The starters...

An interesting menu which lived up to expectations with friendly and efficient service. There is definitely room for another quality restaurant around Chelsea Green especially as two have now disappeared. A serious approach to fish is much appreciated and the grilled turbot was delicious. Prices...

The wild Tavern is a newly Italian inspired restaurant opened in Chelsea by the same group of Beast and Burger and Lobster. The place inside is really simple, but nice and welcoming. It has bar at the centre of the room, where you can have...

Lovely warm room with a fire...very early days having just opened so a few glitches. But food AMAZING. Our table had six different plates and EVERYTHING was delicious. Will visit again a few weeks after they have sorted out a few issues but highly recommend....
