Harden's survey result
Summary
Occupying a prime site with a large pavement terrace in an ever-plusher corner of Belgravia, this old-fashioned stalwart (est 1982) had its heyday in the era of ‘The Sloane Ranger Handbook’ (published in the same year). Even if some reports consider the experience “overpriced” and say “and service would be easy to improve” – our poll still rates its international assortment of dishes decently (although, there are some less favourable experiences reported elsewhere online).
Summary
All agree on the attractive style of this long-established (since 1982) and rather old-fashioned Belgravia stalwart, with nice pavement tables. Not everyone agrees on the value provided by its eclectic international menu (shepherds pie, seared tiger prawns, Dover sole, Belgravia burger…) but it is sometimes tipped for business.
Summary
As a “fun and buzzy” haunt, this long-established (since 1982) Belgravia bar/brasserie (ground floor) and dining room (basement) has a fair few fans. Some enjoy its “low-lit and relaxing” interior, whereas others feel it’s “best to sit outside”. There’s a wide ranging menu (from shepherd’s pie to chicken gyozas via vodka penne) which no-one pretends is hugely foodie but which is generally well-reviewed. Breakfast is the meal most often tipped here.
For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
