Summary

Richard Corrigan’s “understated”, “comfortable” and “well-spaced” Mayfair HQ is a “perfect place for business”, particularly of a slightly traditionalist nature, given its high quality, luxurious British cuisine (available à la carte, or with a tasting option). To the extent that it draws criticism, it’s, perhaps predictably, primarily for being “too expensive for what it is” – take the company’s plastic. Top Tip: “set lunch is exceptional value”.

Summary

“There’s just the right balance of fine dining and a relaxed approach” at Richard Corrigan’s “masculine and clubby”, and business-friendly, Mayfair HQ, “whose honest cooking of first-rate ingredients avoids the over-elaboration that often mars restaurants that are trying to win gongs”. Top Tips – “the Sunday set lunch menu stands out as good value for the posh location” and the “private dining room experience is outstanding, be it at the Chef’s Table or in the Library”.

Summary

Richard Corrigan’s “clubby” Mayfair HQ is “an opulent place with fine cuisine”, but also a “manly” and business-friendly destination (“the decor shouts hunting, shooting, fishing!”) “The menu reads as a homage to gutsy, comfort stalwarts, and though the food looks more delicate than you might imagine, there’s nothing dainty about the flavours”. “Great private dining options”.
