Really liked this place. The view was great, the waiter friendly and recommended the best dishes rather than the expensive ones. The food was very good quality and the traditional styling made for a relaxed romantic evening. Don't know why this place doesn't have a higher rating.
Fine dining with a fine view. Spent a lovely evening at the Old Etonian. Walked up past Harrow School through picturesque old Harrow village then sat on admiring the sunset from their hilltop terrace. Starters were great, we had succulent Prawns in white wine sauce and fried calamari. Had the main course in the simple but elegant restaurant, venison and lamb both well cooked, lamb was delicious, venison sauce was excellent. £53 + tip for starters, mains and mineral water, good value for a special evening out.
This is such a gem of a place. To go back one step actually, Harrow on the Hill was a gem in itself! To come across this village of sorts in the middle of Harrow is not something I had expected and then came the Old Etonian.
Again, do not be fooled by the exterior, walk-in and you will want to make this restaurant one of your warm locals. Unfortunately when we went, the weather wasn't on our side to use the lovely outside seating area they have at the back. Ordered the Lamb Shank which was very well cooked, almost coming off the bone. Went for a work lunch and even though I was quite full already, I could not bear to leave anything on my plate.
Definitely going back sometime soon.
Nice small intermediate restaurant. Good food with lot of selection and reasonable price. Very good service by staff and owner.
Love this restaurant. Food is always excellent and service efficient and friendly. Fixed menu or à la carte. Fixed menu has a very good selection and most people should be able to find something that they like. Good varied dessert trolley too. Also had a bottle of the House sparkling rosé, which was first-class.
We were invited here for the birthday of a dear friend. The food - for starters, two of us had fish soup, one vegetable soup, one French onion soup, while the youngest chose the lightly battered calamari - all the choices were pronounced excellent. For mains, two had venison, one confit of duck, one lamb shank, and our young friend went for the lasagne. I have to report we all enjoyed ourselves. We passed on the puddings (except the youngest had Cheesecake) as we had brought a rather large birthday cake, for which our waiter provided plates, and yes the service was very friendly indeed!
Neither my partner nor I had eaten at The Old Etonian before, but after friends had raved about it & dined there on special occasions we joined said friends for delicious food & excellent service. Some will find the decor dated, but we found it charming; besides we were more interested in the food/drink than the furnishings 🥂🍾🍾🥂
We really enjoy coming here. The staff are friendly and helpful and the food is delicious. Has a dessert trolley which I haven't seen in any other restaurants for a long time!
Friendly staff, warm and welcoming. Excellent prices. Only problem... no disabled toilet access... i am sure that is the same for many restaurants on the hill because of their historic buildings.
Beautiful experience I stay for 1 night! What a lovely bunch of people very helpful! The hotel was situated like in a little village opposite a school so I felt safe! Rooms Clean everything you wanted for your stay was perfect! Thanks guys see you soon 🙂
Food is very good, staff is excellent! This is a very professional restaurant with a good menu and selection where you find yourself very comfy like at home. Definitely a recomendation for everyone
With more than half century of providing excellent friendly service and tasty French/Mediterranean cuisine. Summer time the terrace has scenic views of West London.
Good establishment.
Been in Harrow for years. Good fare at reasonable prices, the staff can be a bit moody.... (well they were on our last visit).
Nice food and good wine! Definitely recommended to my family and friends!
They have the best homemade creme brûlée!!!
Always 5 star, quality and Service. Never had a meal here that was average or below.
Prices are really competitive too.
Thank you!
Reasonably busy for a weeknight so he had to wait a little to be served, however the food was incredible from starter through to dessert and we're looking forward to returning
Good food freshly prepared and excellent wines I ordered giant prawns followed by lamb shank and finished with oranges in caramel
Fantastic setting on a great historical location! Food is great and service is also fantastic.
Ate there only once nearly 30 years ago. It still holds fond memories. Glad it is still in operation. Well worth your visit.
A secret that only the locals know about, great food for a great price. Wonderful view looking out Westward.
