The Wellesley London

could not mistake the hotel or the meal from beginning to end. wonderful experience

beautiful setting and attentive service. the food was excellent and wine list exceptional.

Starters and pasta outstanding. Mains were disappointing in comparison. Pudding made for a great finish. Visualizza piatti

Refined Italian dining in an intimate space. Not cheap, when you factor in wine, but a nice experience and will likely return.

had that lunch that was great. everything, from brot to all three courses was absolutely delicious. the personal was excellent. we will definitely return.

Beautiful and opulent setting. Feels cosy as small room/s. Attentive service. Had five course vegetarian tasting menu including glass of Champagne. Most courses delicious. Pudding a disappointment (gooey pudding wasn’t gooey enough) and some of biscuits at the end were so hard as to be inedible. Overall wonderful and would recommend. Visualizza piatti

Another good meal at the Wellesley. Food is of a high quality, lovely intimate dining room and excellent service. Special offer set menu is good value. Wine is expensive (min. £10 a glass/£30 a bottle) but even the house variety is decent. One slightly off note this time was the smell of cigar smoke. Not sure if there is a cigar lounge on the ground floor, but there was a definite and fairly strong smell of cigar smoke for the entire meal, which wasn't nice.

Elegant, opulent, cooked well, not unconventional. Very liberal use of heavy cream in desserts! Overall score based on the food 8.5/10 Nothing amiss. All done very well. Nothing special, or different, or interesting though. Elegant, simple, nothing unconventional. A very opulent atmosphere, with staff who were very formal, and needed a little time to warm up and be friendlier. Perhaps due to the setting in the Wellesley? I always prefer a more human interaction. Very helpful, accommodating and proper in interactions and attention to the table. The table arrangement does not seem to be ideal though, as it was awkward to place plates in the middle seats in a larger table (5+ .

After a good lunch, as we have had several times before at this restaurant, it took about 20 minutes to bring us the bill. I had mentioned when booking, as you recommend, that we wished to use a Dining Cheque in part payment. After a further 5 minutes, we were told that they would not accept the Dining Cheque. We should have been informed either by email, or upon arrival that this was the restaurant’s position. We feel that you should bring this lack of communication to the management’s attention, to ensure that other guests are not embarrassed in future. We look forward to hearing your comments, as there is not much point to your reward points, if we find it difficult to use the reward. Visualizza piatti
