Very good service from the whole team especially Adan. They brought a surprise bday cake as it was my friend bday! Very attentive service throughout.
recently visited this beautiful place and it was nothing short of a delightful experience. From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel incredibly welcome – warm smiles, genuine hospitality, and attentiveness that felt personal without being overwhelming. The food? Simply amazing. Every dish we tried was bursting with flavor and clearly crafted with care. What made the evening even better was the ambiance – cozy and inviting, making it the perfect spot for both intimate dinners and gatherings with friends. Special shoutout to Vanessa, who went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable.
Service was great and food was delicious. Seating was fast and ambience was comfortable. Manuel was very helpful with the menu and answered all of our questions. I would definitely recommend.
We had afternoon tea. We had great service from Kohinoor. She made the experience one we won’t forget. She was attentive to our every need. 👍👍
The best meal I’ve had in ages! Every dish was incredible, full of flavour and brilliant service. Our server Manuel was very attentive, thank you.
Wonderful tea service, including a vegan option. The art in the room also has great character. Our server Monika was also great and provided nice explanations of each tea service item. Definitely a great experience!
Amazing evening , surprise … our waiter was so attentive and kind . The food was beuon expectations. The dishes were amazingly delicious and presented like piece of art . This place is simply fabulous. The desserts were stunning

Great staff and reception...good and amazing environment and very affordable
The food and interior of the restaurant are really great
Brilliant restaurant

Amazing experience
Perfect dining spot for a weekend getaway
Fantastic meal in London after a show, Manwel made the whole experience and made sure mums nut allergy was taken care of.
Staff were fantastic- really went the extra mile particularly with the kids. Our server Monika was particularly attentive.
Wonderful place, gr8 food
Really nice place
Food and service The cuisine and service made me feel welcome and pampered. The waiter was very attentive and made excellent recommendations. Ambiance The quaint setting. The ambiance transported us to a chic, global marketplace. Special occasion Fusion Flavors delivers an unforgettable experience. Breakfast The homemade hash is a must. The eggs benedict with fried green tomatoes was a risk worth taking.
Located in London s vibrant West End, The Restaurant at St. Martin s Lane offers a sleek, modern ambiance and exceptional service. The chic, minimalist decor creates a stylish setting for a refined dining experience. While it s on the pricier side, the overall atmosphere and service make it a solid choice for a special night out.
Great atmosphere here good food and overall great service. Will defiantly return here again.
Super slow service but the waitress was very nice. Food pretty good.
Nice restaurant with great good near trafalgar square. Superb service from Harati. Keep going this way!
everything is at the highest level!!!
Great and amazing
I can say their services are top quality,you would never regret the experience.
Aarati was delightful.
Great food.
Staff were lovely, food was great, and the atmosphere was amazing
Very good, would go again.
Chose this place for its closeness to the theater. We had their pre theater set. The restaurant had a cool atmospheres and our server Manuel was friendly. Food was average.
Ideal pre theatre dinner spot. We really enjoyed our meal. Thanks Manuel.
I had the pleasure of having breakfast in the hotel restaurant during my stay in London and the experience was wonderful. Mr. Frayer treated us exceptionally, making us feel very comfortable and welcome from the first moment. He was incredibly kind and caring, always attentive to our needs and making sure everything was perfect. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was cozy. I would definitely recommend this place!
Monika our waitress was wonderful and attentive - and the full English was damned fine as well!
Awesome hotel! Very comfortable bedding! Magnificent decoration! Well stocked minibar! Clean room! Top cocktail! Excellent cuisine! Lovely staff (especially bar/restaurant manual). I highly recommend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great pre-theatre meal, thank you. And thanks particularly to Aarati for looking after us so well
Highly recommend. Went for a special date night with my husband. Delicious food and attentive service in a buzzy atmosphere (but still very possible to talk!) with some people-watching thrown in. Great value on the pre-theatre menu but costly the moment you venture off, which it was hard not to do - nevertheless worth it.
Great food and understanding staff. Me and my partner were served by Manuel, gentleman provided great experience. Food
Great place to have dinner with interesting desserts. Despite major delays in the food service, we were looked after by Manuel, a lovely and professional waitor!
Good food, very attentive staff and cozy atmosphere. The cocktails are 10/10 and the waitress Aarati even sang us a happy birthday song and brought a tiny cake Food : 4/5
Aarati was great (:
We had tea at the restaurant. Manuel gave us a fun tour of the hotel beforehand to elevate our tea experience. It was one of the most unique teas I ve ever had!
Amazing food and service. Staff Manuel is friendly and surprised us with slice of cake for both of our birthdays. Definitely coming back again. Restaurant is just 6 minutes walk from the palace theatre. Had their 2 course pre-theatre menu
Stopped for drinks after show. Had great service and loved the relaxing atmosphere and beautiful setting. Food
Great food, Manuel provided excellent service!
Manuel is great!
Frayer and all the servers we great Kid-friendliness: Had my 9 and 6 year olds and they were taken care of really well Food : 5/5 |
Spectacular, the food is delicious and the presentation of the dishes is A1. Manuel gave us very good recommendations. I would definitely return Dietary restrictions: I am gluten intolerant and they offered me bread, GF dishes and dessert. Manuel was very careful with the choice of my dishes.
Dinner at the restaurant st. martins lane post a matinee show was fab! Signature cocktails at the bar were very tasty. Manuel was our server for dinner, very knowledgeable and great service. Highly recommended Food
Manuel was lovely and attentive, the vibe was quiet and pleasant, food presentation and taste were great although the portions were a bit small. Chicken was sous-vide, so please consider if you dont like your food being cooked in a plastic bag. Good vegetarian suggestions on the menu and excellent attention to food allergies from the waiter. Charging 13.5% service charge and then asking the guest to state an additional sum for the tip and to write the new total has put us in an uncomfortable situation but overall a pleasant experience.
Pre-theatre dinner. Excellent service, attended to extremely well. Food was very good,but a bit disappointed with the green goddess salad main course, as a lot of kale clogged the plate. But would definitely eat here again!
Delicious food, wonderful service from Manuel and chef Rohit. Loved the cauliflower soup and and green godess salad. Highly recommend!!
Delicious food presented beautifully. Manuel was a fantastic server. Highly recommended.
This was the worst food I have eaten in a long time. Our waitress was nice but didn t know about the menu. My opinion is this restaurant is trying too hard to be fancy and unique and is missing simplicity of great food. Food
Neither the food nor the service lived up to this very overpriced menu. We spent ~£300 for 5 people (one drink, no starters, no desserts), yet we all left feeling hungry and disappointed. Vegetarian options: A couple of options; nothing to write home about
Just at Ellamia cafe. The coffee is perfect. I just had one of the most wonderful little cakes of my life. The lady who served me, Tetiana, was very friendly and helpful.
I had a wonderful experience at Ellamia Caffe! The cozy ambiance and delicious selection of coffee and cakes made it the perfect spot to relax and unwind. Tetiana, who served me, was absolutely fantastic her friendly demeanor and excellent service made my visit even more enjoyable. She went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. If you re in the area and looking for a great place to enjoy some quality coffee and treats, I highly recommend Ellamia Caffe!
Good food, excellent waiter in Manuel, a little dull in the dining room
Had a pre theatre dinner and was delighted with the food, atmosphere and professional service. A special mention to the gorgeous Manuel who went above and beyond for us!
Our server, Manuel, was absolutely brilliant and made us feel very welcome. The food was amazing and they had so many vegetarian options!
The waiter, Mauel was wonderful - brilliant service. It was my mums birthday which I mentioned in passing and he brought a cake on a bday plate with a candle. The food (pre-theatre menu) and cocktails were good. We were short of time but the main menu looked really good. Atmosphere good even though we were pre-theatre so assuming it gets better and better!
I ve eaten crispy poached egg as a starter and seabass as main dish and it was superrr delicious I really recommend this place. Last but not least I ve been served by a lovely girl called Marcela and she has been very helpful and kind.
Very well presented food, not cheap but everything was done very well. Tuesday night was very quiet but that suited us wanting to catch up.
Its a beautiful place and the service is extremely kind. Thank you to débora & Felix. These two were our favourite waiters! We enjoyed the excellent dinner with special food.
Great quick dinner before a show. The service was top notch - Manuel was perfectly attentive (not too much, not too little). Food was excellent. Would repeat.
Manuel is the best!!
Great atmosphere and the beef burger was perfectly done. Our host Manuel was super friendly and will make sure you have a great experience.
The food was great! Maniel was very helpful and a great conversationalist. He made our experience at the restaurant fun and very enjoyable.
Shout out to Frayer and Aarati our servers who were great!
Amazing meal, Manuel was a great host. Would definetely recommend
Frayer took great care of us
We loved it, breakfast was great and Frayer was amazing. We felt really well taken care of!
Grayer was our server and he was charming and very attentive!
Our server, Frayer, was incredible. Very hospitable!
Great food, great service. Thank you Adan for looking after us !!
Adam has been great. Very caring and made our dining experience unique.
Frayer took great care of us this morning at breakfast. Food was delicious. Great start to a full day of sightseeing in London!
Great service and friendly staff. Adan was exceptional. Highly recommend.
Debora was amazing :)))
Absolutely incredible service by Débora! She made us feel so special, couldn t have asked for more
The food was absolutely incredible and Aarati was fantastic. Highly recommend!
Thanks Aarti. Great dinner!
Great food. Great ambiance and top service firm Nuna!
Frayer was the best beyond amazing. He was so kind and helped us with everything we needed. He felt like a friend. Kid-friendliness: He was super nice and we talked about the Padres and how he was from the Dominican and we mentioned we liked Tatis Jr and that he knows Fernando Tatis Jr
Very helpful, patient and considerate staff. They ensured our experience was the best it could be. Food was great we well and the unique interior was so aesthetically pleasing. Big shout out to Nuno for taking good care of us.
Wonderful Afternoon Tea at the Den! And wonderful service from Kohinoor we ll surely come back again!
The afternoon tea at The Den was amazing, the taste and look of everything was amazing. We went with a 8 mo baby and the seating disposition left enough space for him not to be overwhelmed, besides that the staff was super friendly. Kahinoor served us the whole time and made us feel very comfortable and accommodated. My mum, who is very picky about food, and my husband who is picky about the amount of food both left very happy after it. The next table had a dog so it seems it is also pet friendly. Finally, I cant help mentioning the decoration of the room that was funny and interesting, we had a nice moment checking the paintings. Kid-friendliness: There are chairs for babies and the staff is very nice with them. We were seated in a couch so we were able to play with the baby ahead while waiting so he wasnt tired of the high chair by the time the food came.
I loved Frayer , a good waiter !!!
Frayer at St. Martin Lane, London, provided outstanding service during our visit. Friendly and efficient, he made us feel welcome from the start. His fluency in Spanish added a personal touch that impressed us as my grandparents do not know english. Throughout our meal, Frayer was attentive and ensured everything was perfect without being intrusive. If you dine here, definitely ask for him, we had an amazing time.
Lovely place with a great menu, cosy atmosphere, and delicious food. Couldnt be better!
I had a really good experience thanks to Nuno. He was super nice and went out of his way to suggest some really good food. His recommendations were spot on, making the meal even more enjoyable.
The ambience and food was amazing, i loved every bit of it!
Breakfast was amazing! Also great service from Frayer, who even gave me great recommendations
good
My wife and I celebrated our Valentines date at this restaurant, and it was an unforgettable dining experience. From the moment we stepped inside, the cozy and welcoming ambiance enveloped us, setting the stage for a truly romantic evening.
Highly recommended
We had the best time having brunch on the terrace. Food and bottomless drink were great value for money and service was excellent. Manuel was a brilliant waiter, he made our experience. Joao was also excellent. Will definitely be back next time we visit London in a big group.
Food was amazing, staff are very friendly and quick and the place is very nice.
I liked it a lot
Nice balance of taste and texture. Service was very good . Not too overbearing but always present. Would come back
Nice place Good food
Manuel was a wonderful waiter!
Manuel made it fun and he was ON it the whole time. Competent and fun. Great combo. Dietary restrictions: Asked about allergies
Celebrated our anniversary at St. Martin s Lane. The food was excellent. And the service provided by Aarati was outstanding. Highly recommended.
Great service from the start, was seated and seen to promptly ordered a prawn starter which we honestly did not enjoy as much but I believe that was due to our palette and not the dish however the staff still noticed this even though we had not mentioned this to them and comped the dish from our final bill which we found very kind steak was great and even managed to convert my partner to eating medium rare instead of well done after enough convincing from me the presentation of all courses was great as well which is always important as id mentioned it was a birthday occasion on our open table reservation the chef was kind enough to send out beautiful desserts for us making the day more special and after this the staff even invited us to visit Blind Spot for cocktails after our meal, where the atmosphere and drinks were amazing here i was served a great old fashioned even though i asked for this specially as it was not on the menu, i would also reccomend the sydney and the copenhagen overall great products with even better service thank you :)
Innovative recipes. Manuel took care of us with great suggestions and great service. Thanks!
It was a very good experience and Aayati gave us really good advice
Very nice place, thanks to Aarati : )
We had a lovely dinner before our show. Our waiter, Manuel, made sure that the food came out in time, and helped us celebrate our anniversary.
Inventive and fairly priced, and everything we had was subtly seasoned and cooked. Our dinner, on the lovely (and quiet) terrace, was never less than superb and with dessert reached the sublime. The skilled and hilarious service from Manuel was a treat in itself. It was a meal none of us will forget, or want to forget either.
I want to emphasize that I am 100% satisfied with the excellent service provided by Mr. Manuel Kyle, in a beautiful sharing with very good recommendations of the delicious dishes, complemented the enjoyment and pleasant moments we had. Very soon we will visit you again
Juliana and Kohinoor were amazing! I asked for an ice latte coffee and it was great. The staff was really friendly and the service was fantastic.
The staff is attentive but the cuisine is not of quality. Almost empty restaurant.
Manuel was excellent
The service and team at breakfast at St Martins Lane Hotel are friendly, efficient and welcoming- importantly very swift with the first cup of coffee for the day!!
Great food and atmosphere. The service was super. Definitely going to be back.
Yummy food & great service from Skender & Adam. Laid back vibes, fresh food & good portions. Dietary restrictions: Clear menu & responsive to allergens
Awesome restaurant great services
Great food and service would recommend going
Food and staff were both excellent. Highly recommend
Breakfast was very expensive but great.
Great food .staff and service was great .would recommend to anyone.good experience.
Juliana is a great waitress who listens and cares to your needs personally. Kid-friendliness: It is an open environment where you can feel safe and calm while enjoying a good meal, even with children. Food : 5/5 |
Really good service and food. Skender was super nice and helpful. We ll definitely come back
Great late brunch! Excellent service from Skender and co. Thanks!
Great service from our server Skender, was super friendly and made the experience great! Food was good too and great DJ and atmosphere.
Juliana and kyle provide great service
Lovely experience! Juliana and Lana were excellent servers
I had a delightful late dinner upon my arrival at the hotel. Manuel was a wonderful server who I wish could be at every restaurant!
We ate here a few times while staying at the hotel. Manuel and the other staff were lovely and their service was great. Music was perfect Dietary restrictions: Manuel was super helpful with my food allergies and made me feel comfortable asking.
Quiet for lunch but set menu very tasty.
Service is impeccable. Food is great!
Friendly staff and excellent steaks
Manuel looked after us very well. The pre-theatre menu is excellent and all the staff are professional and friendly. We loved the food, the space and the photographs. Cant wait to return.
The food was OK but the portions were small.
Very good restaurant in the center of London very close to Covent Garden. The staff is attentive, but knows how to be discreet. The dishes are succulent and well stocked. The wine list is well stocked with reasonable prices. Reservation strongly recommended
Very good Restaurant
Great experience before the Theatre. I liked the octopus. Food
Absolutely amazing experience, the staff was very friendly! I can understand it s a high end restaurant but let us breathe don t come to the table every couple of minutes to check on the food or pour the water which is a very kind gesture but no need at all! This one staff member was absolutely amazing and super friendly which i loved and wished i got his name!
The food is good. Service is too slow. t takes 45 min to have food.
Great service, and food was quite nice. Went here for dinner with a friend. Sadly they hadnt noticed my advanced request for gluten-free in the booking, so the bread I got was old and very dry compared to my friends lovely big portions of standard bread. Note that if you use a voucher (we used a Timeout deal), the portions are smaller than normal, so you then have to pay more on side dishes. Nice enough venue, good music (quite loud which was fine for us, but may not be to everyones taste). Was practically empty on a Friday night The lights are too bright which impacts the intimacy of dining out.
We ordered an omelette and acai bowl. The acai bowl was not an acai bowl. It actually contained no acai at all and was just a yogurt base. When we asked our waitress about it she confirmed there was no acai in it at all and that it was just a yogurt bowl with fruit. It would have been nice if she would have flagged that the name was incorrect on the menu as we assumed the acai was mixed with the yogurt based off the name and description. It was good, but very disappointing at the same time as it was not what I ordered. I would have definitely ordered something else if I would have been aware. The omelette was very good with a lot of spinach which was a nice change up from other places that skimp on it.
Very nice service from our waiter Manuel who sang happy birthday and brought a birthday cake to the table as a surprise for my mum. Very nice food and rekaxed atmosphere.
The restaurant is at the ground floor of the hotel s lobby. Nice interior and ambience. Staffs are friendly and service was fantastic. Ordered the pre-theatre menu via Timeout. We paid £30pp for 3 courses including a glass of house wine. Had the octopus for starters, pan seared cod for mains and pear tart for dessert. Pear tart was quite good, the rest were ok. Great place to catch up with friends in a less noisy setting. We also didn t feel rushed to leave the restaurant.
My wife and I came here on our first night in London and feel it is one of the top 5 meals weve had in our lives. Everything was superb, the variety of tastes were incredible, service impeccable. Server Eriko was perfection.
Had a great evening. The cocktails and food were amazing. So delicious. I would like to thank Cleverson and Iuliana for the great recommendations, If I could give give them 10 stars I would.
This was an incredible experience. The place was very pretty. The food was great (especially the scones). And the waitress, Juliana, is very nice.
inviting entrance area
I ve been staying at the St Martins Lane hotel for years and love it. Everything from the staff to the accommodations, hidden bar and breakfast menu are fantastic! But only recently tried the reset Aurand for dinner and it is just as good. The food is very good, and the servers, including Manuel are a true treat. Restaurant could borrow some of the mood and setting from the hidden bar. But outside of that, I give a very large thumbs up!
Trying way too hard. It feels like the food has lost its soul. Maybe the chef has lost the joy of cooking. Beautifully presented and will have your eyes salivating, until you taste it. Bland, underwhelming. An insult to the fresh ingredients. Spend your money and time elsewhere.
Discover a quaint and charming countryside inn with a menu that celebrates local farm-to-table ingredients. The seasonal dishes, prepared with care and precision, are a tribute to the regions culinary heritage
Fantastic! Great food and wonderful service.
I came to the brunch at St martins lane and the food was amazing! Besides the service from Frayer and João was brilliant and very warm.
This restaurant is airy, you can listen to each other, amazing service from Manuel, food was delicious A bit pricey but totally deserving Food
Aesthetically pleasing as soon as you walk in and spacious. Very accommodating staff and delicious food. Food
The service is very good, we were very well looked after by Manuel, and the place was very pleasant, however we came for afternoon tea and it was a huge disappointment and a sad experience, we were very excited but the savory snacks were ok and the sweets were very good. very bad, each one we ate was worse. And the high investment for this experience £55 per person
A great experience! Attentive staff, superb presentations and excellent cuisine. Fresh products and a pleasant little terrace. The only downside would perhaps be the quantity on the plates. In any case I highly recommend
Pros: Presentation was beautiful, flavours were fine . Cons: £104 for two mains with 2 sides, water and a veeeery long wait for the food to be delivered doesnt justify the price. Meat was done to the liking of the chef not customers.
very fresh food.
Pre theatre dinner was amazing. The food was absolutely spot on, delicious and looked beautiful, and the service was attentive, professional and with a personal touch. We enjoyed every aspect of it and will be back soon.
Juliana was so lovely - she gave us excellent recommendations, and all our needs were met. The food was incredible, and the space was not too loud so our party could enjoy our conversation. Would absolutely recommend.
Great experience before the theater. Manuel made it even better!
The restaurant is very nice and the food is delicious. Manuel took great care of us. Very good option before going to the theater. And they were very kind to the girls. Dietary restrictions: They asked us just to arrive Kid-friendliness: They were given a notebook and some pencils to keep them entertained. Very friendly
Everything was taken care of with an unbeatable waiter (Manuel), an experience to repeat.
Dinner last night was a joke. Ordered olives and nuts with our drinks which never arrived. Service was extremely slow. My starter of rabbit terrine was dry and tasteless my main course of chicken Was overcooked and extremely dry. Water for the table had to be chased up. The manager disappeared and I think he probably ended up working in the kitchen. They did take my main course off the bill but it was still over £400 for four of us. There is something very wrong here.this place used to be fantastic. On a Saturday in December with every other bar/restaurant in the west end totally full this restaurant was almost empty which show that this level of extremely poor service has been going on for some time and the word has got around.
A lovely time with the family for my partners birthday lunch. Bottomless brunch. Lobster Benedict was amazing. Our lovely waiter Anastasiia was attentive at every step, Vivien the Manager visited our table to welcome us. Marek, the Bartender made an excellent birthday cocktail for my partner. Tobacco dock was delicious! Thank you and will visit again.
The service is Very friendly and they give us a surprise with a little birthday cake to my mum as she was birthday. Thank you all of you!
