The Pem is an upscale restaurant in a Hilton Hotel. Do dress up in your finest. It's not a jeans/ t-shirt place. It's quintessential elegance. There are at least 6 servers taking care of you, all excellent. All female Chefs.
Be prepared for a non-traditional menu with things like Nettle Soup, Lamb's heart, Artichoke with truffles, etc. You have to be an adventurous eater at The Pem. Dinner & drinks for 3 cost over $600US.
My favorite dish was a Strawberry Cheesecake dessert. Over the moon!
We enjoyed our dinner at The Pem. The service was great throughout. The ambiance was very nice as the restaurant is divided into a lot of smaller spaces so it feels cozy. The mushroom soufflé and langoustine dishes were the highlight. Their house bread was also delicious! The sommelier was very knowledgeable while their wine list was extensive and reasonably priced as well.
Great restaurant, delicious food, calm atmosphere, attentive and friendly staff. Highly recommend

Incredible.
Swanky, moody and delicious: not just a dinner but a proper night out.
The dishes have the detail and depth of flavour you may find in Michelin-star establishments and found some of the ones we tried to have the potential to become instant classics like the mackerel and lobster, both in the starters, beef in the mains and apricot custard tart in the deserts. Wonderful flavours, surprisingly well balanced: totally loved the way how the primary flavours were enhanced rather than masked by cooking techniques. Difficult to pull off and it was masterfully done, bravo chef!
The wine list did what a wine list does best: it intrigued me (Orange wine from Greece? Yes please and fantastic!).
Overall what my company and I loved the most was the vibe. We chatted the night away, with the music gently picking up throughout the hours we had been at our table and enjoyed a perfect service from the staff.
The service was so good it was unreal: everyone interacted with us, special mention to James, the wonderful sommelier, and managed to never be intrusive. They were knowledgeable but most importantly, attentive. They punctuated our conversation, with humour and care, like in a well orchestrated theatre production: we eagerly took it in.
Overall, it was an evening of light-hearted fun, the sort we had been missing for months and I'm so ever grateful for that.
Well done to The Pem and wish you every success!
Exquisite food and wine! . The service is exceptional and we opted for wine pairing to compliment our food. The waitress I assume was also a trained sommelier as her wine knowledge paired my taste well. Each time 2 wines were bought over to try and so you can chose a preference. This was based on the initial description of your taste. Beautiful decor and embiance.
It was my birthday and there was a card signed my all the chefs which was a lovely touch as well as a mini dessert.
I Discovered this place by happenstance and I'm so glad. I wanted to try British food that wasn't chips and chips. Great discovery! The ambiance was casual and upscale, the food was exceptional, the service above and beyond.
Very nice customer service. A very nice dining restaurant. 5-stars lovely place.
Really enjoyed breakfast buffet, good vegetarian selection, great tasting coffee, had Oats porridge which was delicious
Service and ambiance is amazing, thank you
Absolutely incredible experience we had at the pem, we went on with the new years eve special menu and It was 10/10, the service was 11/10 everything was fantastic.
It is expensive but I honestly believe It is worth to try atleast once.
First time at the pem to celebrate an anniversary. Been wanting to try Sally abe's new restaurant for a while. Good vibe in the dining room and everything was very slick. Friendly staff and a great sommelier. Menu had good variety and the food was also very nice. Lost a star because its very very expensive. We had a good time here but felt it to be lacking for the price point. Not sure if we will return but worth a trip to see for yourself
Had a lovely impromptu meal at The Pem. The service was spot on, special mention to the sommelier who recommended some great wine pairings. Cooking of the food was perfect for us in particular the game cookery. We will definitely return

Absolutely loved it. I've had food from Chef Sally Abe before at The Harwood Arms so we were very keen to visit The Pem and try some of her team's fine dining delicassies.
The presentation of the food is stunning and the combination of British flavours are superb. The rose veal was by far my favourite starter and the John Dory was phenomenal as a main. Particularly happy with the John Dory as it is quite tricky to not overcook and end with a dry, chewy finish.
The wine menu is ideal and there's plenty of perfect, affordable choices for each dish. I was surprised to see some sweet wines from southern Spain that one often doesn't see in London, such as from the hills of Malaga. The quality to price ratio is also really good considering this is food made by one of Britain's finest.
Service was 10/10 which is surprising considering the restaurant is brand new and one can expect the odd confusion or delays here and there but we had none of that so considering we were a party of 6, that was quite impressive.
Looking foreward to coming again.
Thank you for a lovely experience.
We had a fantastic lunch yesterday! Beautifully presented and exquisitely tasty food served up with fine wines for each plate! Thank you so much to the whole team! Especially James for the wines!
Very nice restaurant, although pricey, the Wellington and goose were both stand out and the seafood broth was extremely nice too
Had a really great experience here, the food was beautiful, fresh and delicious. I’m used to American wines but the sommelier here recommended an Austrian white wine which was complex and delicious. Very friendly and helpful staff- loved it.
Booked here on a whim wanting fancy British food on our first trip to the UK last October and were impressed by everything. The food tasted very pure and clean and hearty, the service was amazing. The staff was very diverse and warm. First meal on our honeymoon and we couldn’t have been happier.
We both went for the plant based tasting menu and were given an amazing selection of dishes that were delicious and bursting with flavour. We were looked after incredibly well. Service is impeccable. A comfortable and relaxed atmosphere. We will be visiting again soon for sure.
Delightfully attentive staff and superb food. Made for a memorable evening of celebration.
Had an lovely dinner with my wife, nice comfortable interior with a fresh colour palette (none of the pretentious ornate stuff), the fishes were exquisite, starter or main.
The pigeon was cooked perfectly and the mains were prepared carefully, plating perhaps a little more creativity could happen no rush, but……
OMG!!! the desserts were the best, forget everywhere else with any stars, the desserts are just incredible! Brilliant combination of textures and it closed the palate nicely.
I think with a little more focus on atmosphere and a bit more reputation going this place is onto be a real winner. How exciting to see this moving forward. (Update 2023, this place needs a star! )
