We were looking for something a little special (read: fancy) when we decided to try Alyn Williams at the Westbury, Mayfair. For me, the biggest selling point was the Vegetarian Tasting Menu (with the option for wine pairing if you really feel like splashing out). It was great to have this ready to go instead of desperately trying to scan the menus for the ‘V’ sign to see what sort of meal you can cobble together from the menu.
We went to this restaurant to celebrate my niece getting her degree and had a wonderful lunch. I believe the cooking and food here can't be bettered in London. We had an amuse bouche of risotto with generous truffle shavings but every course was inventive and delicous. The staff are helpful and are keen to make your experience enjoyable. I eat gluten free and they couldn't be more helpful to accomodate me. Bravo!
This is the last of my back-logged updates from my meals prior to our trip to the South East. Our meal at Alyn Williams was completely unplanned, so much so that our last minute booking via OpenTable was not received by the restaurant. Thankfully, despite the small hiccup they had plenty of spare tables available on a cold Thursday night. It really is a shame that despite holding a Michelin star and being very fairly priced, the restaurant remains pretty quiet particularly during midweek.
It's in a nice posh hotel so expect few covers and more personalised waitering service. That's exactly what we got.
They only have taster menus but we were offered the option to switch dishes between the taster menus.
Naturally you paying for the attentiveness of the staff and the aesthetics of the food. But favourite food of the night? The foie gras for sure! This is where I became a foie gras convert!
We went here on weekend in a recommendation and we were not disappointed. The place was really beautiful, had very relaxing and warm atmosphere. Menu looked good. I had beef rib eye and my friend had pork belly and both items were served quickly, very nicely presented and tasted great. Wines were so good; we were completely impressed by the food, ambience and service. Desserts were amazing too. This place is a must visit. Definitely recommended!
Went here for an anniversary meal while on our London trip. We only ordered the set lunch menu, but got a lot more than what we expected. Food and services were good. Highly recommended!
I was alone and tried the tasting menu. An upscale, Michelin start, with good wine menu. All delicious, fresh, somewhat innovative, great mix of flavours and texture. Will definitely return soon.
It's a Michelin star restaurant. What more can I say that an accreditation like that can't say for me? Perfect ambience, lovely attentive staff, amazing food. We had the tasting menu with paired wines skipping dessert (we aren't sweet people but I did spy the dessert and almost regretted my decision!). For a special occasion I can't flaw it. They even had a Western Australian wine so I was chuffed (Cullen).
The best meal I have ever had. They catered for halal with some notice and the food was absolutely top notch. I would definitely go back.
I would recommend contacting them early, and they will do their best to accomodate.
Had the Chefs Choice lunch menu and it was really really nice. Obviously very expensive but truly great flavours.
