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!

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.

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.
