Great place for breakfast with a real British atmosphere! We loved the décor -- it's cozy and…read morecharming. Very pleasant experience overall. We ordered the Royal Eggs with smoked salmon (similar to Eggs Benedict) and an English Breakfast. Everything was delicious, and the egg quality was excellent. I also had a lychee matcha -- the matcha itself was great quality, just a bit too sweet for my taste (I'd ask for less sweetness next time). My husband ordered a coffee pot with milk, which was a very cool experience and great coffee quality too. Our server, a young woman named Tasha, was wonderful -- super friendly and attentive. Highly recommend this spot if you're looking for a great breakfast in the heart of London, not far from Big Ben!

But after 10 mins we had to move inside due to the "smokers lounge" created by several rando ppl hanging around. Hristo was our server - so great with the recommendations and letting us sample an item. So much help. We got fish finger, focaccia sandwich - awesome fish, soft bread, delicious tartar sauce, and the chips were rockin, nice and crunchy. Also got the lentil soup (amazing - we fought over it) and salad (nice toppings) and grilled cheese (yummy) & added side of mac & cheese (super gooey & cheesy). Last my wife got the Hippie Bowl (decent but she loved all the other items more). Everything was so good, and we had so much food we were stuffed because we ate almost everything. Last the lemon meringue was so awesome - best I can remember!! Overall the best food we ate in this trip!

We had not reserved enough time to visit the Tate Britain. On top of that, we didn't have lunch and…read morewere feeling rather hungry. Luckily, the current generation of art museums usually offer decent contemporary cuisine, and the Tate is one of them. We decided to dine here to absorb in the atmosphere before running to the exhibit.. on hind sight, we might have spent too much time eating, too little time browsing the exhibits. Ah well, you gotta make do! The lunch menu is scrumptious, to say the least. It is a set lunch but you can choose the number of items you want. The lamb chops with potato au gratin was excellent, especially the potatoes -- everyone raved about them. The sea bass over a cream sauce with peas and leeks was seared to perfection with crispy skin. Everything is almost too fancy for lunch. The portions were just right (not too large, not too skimpy), and the setting does make the price worth it. If only they do dinner service, then you could go round the exhibits before stuffing yourself silly!

Alas, those options were all but gone from the card and prices were fairly high, too. The food we had was fine. It just wasn't the pub fare and drinks I was hoping for.

The Grill may sound like a simple place from the name alone, but it is anything but that. Located…read morein The Dorchester, The Grill is luxury dining at its finest and most timeless. The restaurant is gorgeously designed - so highly detailed and ornate with the gold-colored accents and an asymmetrical gold chandelier. Despite being inside, you can tell if it is day or night by the pivoting wall panels that are light on one side and dark on the other. It is a space that is both classic and unique. The Grill is open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. In between those times, the restaurant is not open. I had breakfast and dinner here, and both were amazing. For breakfast, the options are between a continental or English breakfast. Both include a continental buffet, and the only difference between the two is that the English breakfast includes one hot entree dish. A continental breakfast may not sound very impression, but the food selection is plentiful and impressive here. The pastries and fruits are as fresh and delicious as it gets. Overall, the continental breakfast is not a bad deal for £30. For dinner, I had the fish and chips while my friend had the pork belly, which was the special that day. I was a little skeptical about having fish and chips in a high-end restaurant, especially when it had a healthy twist added on to it with the sweet potato puree and kale, but I was blown away. Who knew fish and chips can be made healthy but still taste so delicious? The pork belly was a delicious dish as well with its crispy skin but tender meat. Both dishes were so flavorful yet well-balanced. I was too full to eat dessert, but get the souffle for dessert if you have room in your stomach. Also, there is an extensive alcohol menu to pair with the food. Complementing the beautiful venue and food are the fantastic staff members who provide top-notch service. With all three factors equally at the highest standards, The Grill will not disappoint you.
