The best restaurants serving Brasserie food in City of London, Westminster London

Food is great, meat is super delicious. However, the atmosphere is cheap and loud. You get seated at a massive communal table. This would be great for an informal get together. However, this place is priced expensive like a top tier restaurant. In this case, the standard required in terms of service, seating and ambience must be signficantly higher… you cant seat someone at a communal table and charge them £300+ for a meal.

Me and 5 friends went to bentleys to continue my friends 21st birthday celebrations. We were welcomed in on arrival by some lovely front of house staff and was seated at the bar. Alessandro served us our drinks for the evening and was incredibly kind and nice to us all evening and was very accommodating to all requests we had. Would 100% recommend giving this spot a visit as was the best place we went to all day!

Acogí una cena de negocios aquí por recomendación de un conocido, y fui con expectativas razonables y de buen humor. Era bastante temprano en una tranquila noche de lunes y normalmente uno podría hacer concesiones para eso, especialmente si es un restaurante informal. Si todos se esfuerzan, instintivamente me resisto a publicar una crítica negativa. Pero no esta vez, la experiencia olía a "no nos importa", y sugiero que en el negocio de la hospitalidad, eso es simplemente inaceptable.

Troppo costoso per la qualità .Dolci pessimi.Abbiamo mangiato cervo/ agnello / sandwich di aragosta , non ricordo esattamente il nome dei dolci.Nessun piatto era all’altezza di un ristorante così famoso

We had the platter for 2. Great food, tasty, the meat was hot and cooked to perfection. Lovely art work around the restaurant, lovely staff, good service and vibrant, light atmosphere.

As a 3 star restaurant in a hotel as distinguished as the Connaught, you can of course expect exceptional food, wine and service. With that comes an exceptional price tag, and this is true of all the 3-star restaurants in the UK. And with so much competition just in London alone, it is the finer detail and service which can set a restaurant apart from all the others. The food was out of this world, and I say this as someone who has been very fortunate to eat at the majority of the 3 star Michelins in the UK - Helene Darroze is at the top of this list. The guinea fowl and the lobster were stand outs for me, but really every course was superb. If you’re a wine enthusiast or appreciate wine pairings, we opted for the ultimate wine experience and have no regrets. The thing about wine pairings is everyone is doing them nowadays and they can be substandard and uninspiring, and given that they’re usually hundreds of pounds it can be a great disappointment when not done right. However, the experience at Helene Darroze was second to none and complimented each course perfectly. The 2015 Chateaux d’Yquem was a stand out for me. There are two other cheaper wine pairing options available. And finally, the service. The team here are the gold standard of hospitality. Kind and thoughtful, friendly and welcoming. We were treated to a tour of the kitchen, the chefs just as smiley and friendly despite being incredibly busy and focused. I made some remarks about the tweezers the chefs use to apply finishing touches, and the next day I had an envelope in my room with a hand written note and some chefs tweezers as a gift. It’s this human and personal touch that makes memories that last a lifetime, so thank you to Lelia the guest services manager who thought to do this, because it was so appreciated. I can’t recommend Helene Darroze enough and especially if you’re looking to celebrate a special occasion.

Was really looking forward to grabbing a bite to eat from this place, although I think I'll be giving it a wide berth from now on!! Definitely not the same as it used to be, i was working in the area for many years and really enjoyed the food from here. Unfortunately it's gone down the same road as al the other little independent shops and started hiking up prices. I just paid £6 for a four piece meat box meal, not even enough food there for the youngest child, and you don't get a great choice either, when I started going in there 13 years ago, they didn't have the box meal thing, and you could choose everything in the meat counter. Real shame, but appears greed has took over here!!

I wanted something quick, and the "Crispy chips, Greek marinated Chicken, Gouda & Garlic paprika aoli" sounded good. What a huge disappointment: the chips were as crispy as a wet napkin, totally soggy, the meat tasteless and the whole soggy mess totally swamped with masses of greasy "aoli". Really poor. The beer at the pub, however, was excellent.

I am traveling solo and was coming into the city to see a play. I stopped in and asked for a table for one, and a place where I could charge my phone if possible. I was given both with no problem at all. The service was amazing - very attentive - and the food was delicious. I got the three-course Theatre Set Dinner and the appetizer was delicious (some kind of ham and mozarella balls), the steak was very good, but the dessert was possibly the best chocolate volcano cake I've ever had. It came with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on a bed of graham cracker crumbs and several dollops of raspberry sauce and a sprig of mint. It was fantastic. I'd love to eat there again next time I'm in the city.

Cocktails at the beginning of the meal were great. Wine selection, across the board, is too limited for a Michelin star restaurant. And what you get is far too expensive for the quality. I had the German Riesling for 80 pounds (second most expensive wine on the list) and that’s a bottle that in terms of quality should have a retail price of no more than 15 pounds (my guess). You should really get advice from a good sommelier and fix the wine selection problem. Food and service were outstanding.

Argentinian restaurant, one of the best restaurants in London, worth a visit. Thank you to Mr. Dolph for his cooperation.

Oh, Davy’s Wine Bar! Where I nipped in for a quick lunch, and promptly felt a profound pang of jealousy watching a handful of locals swirl their cabernets and chardonnays in goblets the size of small bath tubs. There they were, blissfully ensconced in a wine tasting event, sipping away in the middle of the day like Roman gods while I, sadly and painfully sober, had to exercise restraint for the sake of… professionalism. Professionalism, yes, because I was speaking on stage around the corner, and it wouldn’t do to turn up tipsy—God forbid I actually told the audience what I really thought. So, instead of a few glasses of plonk and a taste of that high life, I settled on a Diet Coke and a plate of smoked salmon. A rather slim portion it was, but fine, lovely even—delicately brined, served with a scattering of capers and just enough lemon to keep things interesting. The service was friendly, unobtrusive but attentive, as if they could sense I was one well-poured pinot away from complete abandon. Ah, what could have been, had I not been tethered to the shackles of decency. Still, a tidy lunch, a Diet Coke, and a dose of envy it was. Here’s to next time when I’m not professionally handcuffed and can swig with the best of them.

Ordered two burgers and two salads. We waited for over 40 min to get our food. When the burgers finally came the patties was burned and completely black and inedible. We told the waiter and they just made a new patty and put it back in the cold bun. Not worth the money

the staff nice the food very tasty shawarma and shish # i like the cranchy chips humus with falafil with lovely fresh salad

Average, nothing special. Most central London eateries are going to be fairly average from my experience. It's London, it's expensive. Urban desert especially around Victoria station.
