The old menu had the 'Oriental thali' if you fancied a blow out and you liked a variety of foods this could not be recommended enough. In the restaurant I struggled to finish the meal, as a take out I always had something left for the next day. My only regret is that local parking is scarce and I now live too far away not to drive. When I lived close this was a regular haunt now it is somewhere for special occassions.

Staying in the attached Hilton for a week, I've eaten in the Larder Restaurant several times,…read moretrying quite a number of things from the dinner menu. I've also enjoyed the breakfast buffet, which is nothing if not perfectly consistent day after day. Scrambled and fried eggs, sausages, blood pudding, sauteed mushrooms, bacon, toast, porridge, smoked salmon, yogurt, juices, fruits, and much more. They'll also prepare nearly anything you want fresh if you want to wait, though I haven't. From the dinner menu, I've had the thyme-infused chicken breast with spinach mash and green beans. It was excellent and very fresh. The two pasta dishes were adequate, but I felt they were just a jumble of sauce and veggies mixed up and I don't recommend them. The wild boar burger was an interesting choice, but with the melted gruyere cheese, it was just odd. I also tried the room service menu once, having the chicken tikka masala, which was good. Served with a pile of rice and riata and chutney and naan, it was nicely spicy and a good sized portion. It was delivered extremely quickly, so I wonder if this is some sort of reheated freezer pack, because there was no way it was prepared fresh. Also, the chicken in there was a grilled chicken breast that had been chopped up, so while it was good, the chicken didn't actually have the flavor it would get from being cooked with the sauce for a while. Service is excellent and very friendly. These people stick to a high standard and I really appreciated everything they did. Obviously, if you're staying in the hotel, this is the closest choice. If I lived in the neighborhood, I think I would still dine here.

Yes, it's in the bottom of the hotel I'm staying in so convenience is 10 stars! That's said, the…read moremeal, atmosphere, and service were very nice. I was pleasantly surprised with their wine list. The Rose Champagne was lovely and very reasonably price at 9.5GBP. They had a good variety of other wines and offer 125ml and 250ml glasses (always a plus if you want a bit more wine but not a full glass). The food as well prepared and presented. Started with the tomato and mozzarella salad. Both were drizzled in really nice basalmic and micro greens. For the main I went with the roasted cod which was really great. Nice crispy skin on top yet the flesh wasn't over cooked. It was on top of a slightly spice harissa mash (I soo want to make at home!) and fennel (yay for more fennel!). The flavors worked really well together! Service was the right amount, attentive but not overly present especially as someone dining alone. For atmosphere they had light music in the background that did well in blending the sounds from the bar I could hear. Honestly, I'd come back here even if it meant having to walk or drive instead of take an elevator down :)

I regularly go to LSQ2 in Green Park for business lunches, and it's never let me down. Service is…read moreattentive and food is splendid. The lunch options are cheap and quick if you want a speedy bite; but the a la carte menu is there to be lingered over. I last had the green seafood thai curry which included prawns, scallops, salmon and monkfish, preceded by warm freshly baked bread with olive oil, balsamic vinegar and dukkah. I rarely have room for dessert at lunchtime, but I'm desperately keen to try the coconut baked cheeseccake with the mango cream! Maybe next time... It's not the most picturesque location, but it is basically situated in the middle of an office complex so I wouldn't expect it to be. For a convenient business lunch, it's ideal.

I was shocked to find that it was entirely accurate in this case - pizza with toppings piled high and excellent cheese coverage. Wow, we weren't disappointed!
