Kingsley - Piatti

went to kingsley two brasserie with a friend for a refresher. the main restaurant was closed so we sat in the bar to eat where some tables were put to the side. it was very quiet, but the food was good and the service was also good.

At Kingsley, the service was excellent from beginning to end, but regrettably, we left before our food arrived. There was no communication regarding the wait time or the cause of the delay. After nearly two hours of waiting, the only thing we were given was a bowl of ready-salted crisps, which was disappointing given the menu’s potential.

We booked this place at the last minute. The restaurant is inside the Thistle hotel and the decor is nice, fresh and quite modern looking. Our wait staff were cry friendly and quick to offer suggestions when I couldn't make up my mind which was really nice of them. The food was delicious and the servings are very generous! We would love to done there again! Visualizza piatti

Although the staff were lovely, it took forever for our cocktails to come. Burgers are not allows to be medium rare and when I asked for my steak to be medium-welldone what I got went way past well done and the meat was super dry. The staff were accommodating with dessert which we appreciated, but it wasn’t enough to overcome the delays and not delivering on the food.

The stunning restoration of the bank building sets a perfect backdrop. The hostess was incredibly accommodating; despite accidentally booking a restaurant with the same name in London, they managed to seat us promptly. The staff was highly professional yet warm and welcoming. Every meal and appetizer we had was beautifully prepared and delicious. I have no complaints whatsoever and am already looking forward to returning.

Our experience at Kingsley was extremely disappointing. The food was very poor, and the service was even worse. Despite there being only two other customers in the restaurant for over half an hour, we soon understood why it was so empty. We will definitely not be returning, and our time in London was spoiled because of this visit. I strongly advise against going there—there are many wonderful restaurants nearby that are worth trying instead. Visualizza piatti

Kingsley Two, Holborn, London. Visited this hotel restaurant to sample their 3 courses and glass of prosecco for £22 p/p. We were the only two people in the restaurant for the entirity of our meal but did not feel self conscious. Our waitress was lovely, very attentive. We met the manager, the chef and the sous chef! We were able to congratulate them on the great food that we enjoyed. We had 3 choices for each course and so long as you're not too fussy, you'll identify a suitable dish!

My main issue with The Kingley is the service. Our waiter was extremely slow and seemed to lack basic waiting skills. Although he was aware that our group was gathering in the bar, he didn’t set up the table beforehand, leaving us to wait while he rearranged tables and prepared it. He also didn’t provide us with a menu or wine list; we had to ask for them ourselves. One of our starters was incorrect, and throughout the meal, we found ourselves needing to call him over repeatedly to order more drinks, which was disappointing given that there were only two other tables occupied.

The food was outstanding! We started with the pâté, which was delightful, and the pork belly was gorgeous—cooked to perfection and packed with flavor. The service was top-notch; we were made to feel very welcome, and both the waiter and the maître d' checked on us after every course. Surprisingly, the restaurant was quite empty, which is understandable for a Tuesday, but considering its central London location, it was a bit unusual. While this made the atmosphere feel somewhat lackluster, we actually enjoyed the peacefulness. I would definitely recommend this place! Before dinner, we also had drinks at the bar, where the cocktails were fantastic. Visualizza piatti
