About

Established in 1742, Wiltons, located in Jermyn Street in the heart of London’s St James’s, is one of London’s oldest restaurants and is steeped in elegance and tradition. The restaurant has previously held six royal warrants between 1838 and 1938, including one granted by Queen Victoria in 1868 for supplying the monarch with oysters. Wiltons has gained an enviable reputation for serving delicious dishes inspired by traditional British cuisine and is one of the few remaining restaurants in the UK that uses a carving trolley for daily lunch and Saturday dinner service. The restaurant is a bastion of great British food, and is renowned for its seafood, game and of course, oysters.

We went for the carving trolley beef wellington and it lived up to and exceeded expectations. The duxelles was not over powering like you often find, more of a supporting cast along with the pastry and jus. Perfect portiowas Could I have eaten more, yes, but I came away feeling good, not overstuffed. Had room for the rest of the meal, oysters, salmon, truffle mash, green beans, and dessert. Everything was delightful but the wellington was the star for me.

If you are looking for classic British cuisine, served with professional flair in a clubby atmosphere, you have to make reservations at Wilton's. Many years ago on a business trip I had lunch here, and it was such a memorable meal that I made a point to come back and have the full dinner experience. It paid off to wait so long. A cordial welcome at reception, where we checked both our coats and shopping bags in a coat check that had ample room and a reassuring sense of security. We were escorted all the way into the inner precincts where a corner booth with a generous size round table awaited us, from where we could scout the entire place and the outstanding wall art collection, while maintaining enough distance from neighboring tables. 1.We started with half a dozen fresh oysters, with such distinct herbal and blue cheese notes that we thought they had been smoked. So different from the ones we are used to have in the Northeast USA, and a welcome addition to our oyster repertoire. 2. We transitioned into a classic endive, walnuts, pear and Stilton salad, and being a Stilton fan, I had to have the twice baked Stilton soufflé. Perfect size and texture and a creamy, aromatic sauce surrounding it. 3. I could not resist ordering the roast pheasant a l'anglaise, knowing perfectly well that it was going to be gamey and dry, but it surpassed all my expectations.On the side silky truffled mash potaotes. My companion was pleased with her perfectly grilled Cornish sea bass with crab sauce, mashed potatoes and celeriac purée. 4.To finish a perfect meal we shared the apple crumble. The service was flawless, reserved and accommodating. We were in cloud nine throughout. And we are already looking forward to go back next year.

This restaurant makes me feel like a true madam. The staff, cuisine, and ambiance create a perfect harmony, with dishes served at just the right moments to match the flow of conversation. The lobster bisque is exceptional; I was captivated by it the first time I visited. Recently, I enjoyed the oyster master course, which was wonderful. Not only did I savor delicious oysters, but I also gained fascinating insights into their history and tasting techniques. I plan to make another reservation soon. My favorite bread and butter pudding is always delightful, and I hope the restaurant continues to maintain its exquisite flavors.

Quintessential English fine dining. Great service, elegant posh surroundings which still make you feel warm and at home. Great food selection and an amazing wine list. I had the foie gras with absolutely fantastic wine jelly followed by a Dover sole meunière, simply delicious. The beef Wellington was excellent and the beef tartar super smoky and rich in flavors. Capped off with a bread and butter pudding. If you want to experience English dining at its best, Wilton’s is the place

10/10 experience. A classic and lowkey spot for the ones that know… No words for the service, it was amazing. We went for dinner with my boyfriend because he was craving oysters, and there is no better place in london to get oysters than wiltons. For mains we had the mushroom risotto and the cod with crab sauce. The risotto was a perfect classic and the crab sauce took the cod to the next level. They also offered us a sweet treat in the end which was very thoughtful and nice bonus points given the fact that we are in london and most restaurants just care for the money. Definitely coming back. Thank you for having us wiltons!

I am impressed how they have set up the restaurant to be slightly formal, yet warm and cosy at the same time. It was busy there this evening and felt the noise level was very well managed. Great atmosphere, and the staff is great. Interactive, engaging and have a wonderful sense of humour as well. Great quality food and really lovely portion size as well. I left without feeling overly stuffed or too full after a 3 course meal. Wonderful choice of wine, appetizers, main from meat, veg to seafood. A wonderful range of desserts too.

Without a doubt, a visit is a must to enjoy an authentic British flavor. It started as an oyster bar and ended up being todays classic restaurant. Select and elegant atmosphere. Classic British decoration. A menu with seafood and meat. Great variety of oysters and classic dishes. We start with a smoked salmon. They come with different hints of smoke, we asked for the smokiest one, very good advice. We also shared a Stillton cheese suffle. Excellent, a fine blue cheese flavor and the perfect soufflé. The main course is kidneys with bacon, a bit overcooked but good in flavour. A roast pheasant accompanied by wine sauce, applesauce and a very thick type of béchamel. The perfect roast point, crispy skin and meat just right. And a Wilton cake, amazing, pieces of salmon and turbot covered in gratin mashed potatoes. On it a boiled and battered egg. An incredible dish. Something stale but exceptional. For dessert, a raspberry souffle. Also perfect for cooking. Extensive international wine list with some English references. Perfect service. It is certainly a place to enjoy a traditional meal in London.

We went there searching for a light dinner. The Wimbledon Smoked Salmon was quite good: subtle taste that was enhanced by a squeeze of lime. The Wiltons Fish Pie was extraordinary. The soft cooked egg really lifted the dish. Its going to be difficult for me to find another fish pie to match this.

I recently visited restaurant for my best friend s bday celebration.The interior of the restaurant is very sophisticated with wonderful artwork.we were served by Barbara who advises us on the menu,presented suggested started ,she was very friendly and professional at the same time Food was delicious we will definitely return. The only thing I may suggest is the option of using a bar prior to arrival The restaurant opening time is 5:30 and when you arrive before that you have to wait at the entrance I believe that allowing the guest to use bar from 5 o clock could potentially improve whole dining experience Thank you

Well, yesterday my wife and I flew from Porto to Lisbon to London and thankfully made it in the rain just in time for our 9pm reservation. Everything was as we expected at our favorite London restaurant. I had my favorite smoked eel appetizer, the hake entree, and the pea puree side, that could have been a dessert. My wife had the cerviche appetizer, the plaise entree, and the spinach side. EVERYTHING was delicious, as always. And our female server Barbara was excellent. We eagerly look forward to our next dinners at Wiltons...TOMORROW NIGHT!!!

Wiltons, tucked in a little street just off Piccadilly, is a restaurant that you need to visit at least once in your lifetime. Its listed as a seafood restaurant but to me its more of a British cuisine. The Beef Wellington was simply amazing, the soufflé was done to perfection and the Louis XIII cognac was superlative. The service, the atmosphere, the attention to details, its formal British hospitality at its finest.

If I could give endless stars I would! Dining at this restaurant was an extraordinary experience, from the moment I stepped through the door, I was immersed in an atmosphere of elegance and sophistication. The ambiance alone would have been enough to make the evening memorable, but it was the culinary journey that truly left me in awe. The menu showcased a perfect balance of innovation and tradition, with each course showcasing the chefs impeccable skill and creativity. The service was impeccable, with attentive staff who anticipated our every need without ever being intrusive. What truly sets the Wilton s apart, however, is its commitment to excellence in every aspect. The attention to detail was evident in every aspect of the meal, from the exquisite presentation to the flawless execution of each dish. It was an experience I will never forget. It was not simply a meal, but a journey of the senses that left me eager to return. If you have the opportunity to dine at Wilton s, do not hesitate it is an experience that is truly unparalleled.

For me - it is the best seafood in London. But the main thing is atmosphere. It s very old fashioned. Sit down, relax, take Chevalier-Montrachet Domaine Leflaive and in 10 minutes you feel like your Grand Pa still sits in the House of Lords.

Sheer class cant even begin to describe this place! After a few minutes I was convinced my great grandfather had been a member of Parliament and that I was destined for greatness as well. Even MP isnt out of reach. Outstanding starters: a lovely endive salad with a sharp mustard dressing, silky Stilton, & walnuts and a game terrine with just the right touch of gamey goodness. Our mains were a great turbot and a perfectly cooked Dover sole. Do not skip the pea purée side dish, which although it looks like baby food, is actually the purest, sweetest taste of English peas imaginable. Good wine list with selections across the price points. Why didnt I give it 5 stars overall? There were a few weaknesses. The cocktails were lacking in depth and complexity compared to many other options in London. The portions are generally too large for how rich they are (although many wouldnt complain about that. I just felt bad for leaving food behind, but I simply couldnt eat any more). A nigglilng complaint: in the mens toilet there are charmingly quirky pictures of Mr. Wilton the langoustine enjoying various sports like horse racing and rowing. In the womens toilet there are botanical lithographs of lettuces. Come on, people. Its 2024 women like dapper langoustines too!

The food is very nice, the service is very nice. Unfortunately the website experience is absolutely terrible. I decided to have lunch there with my mother next week and tried to book online. Not only does it now demand a credit card which doesn t seem very Wilton s to me but the booking form keeps getting rejected for petty reasons, and I am now on my third attempt to make a zero credit card payment in order to make the booking! Is this really necessary? To add insult to injury, there isn t even an email address, so a Google review is the only way of giving any feedback.

Dressed crab, flaky and sweet, comes with a fan of ripe green avocado. Delicately flavoured Lincolnshire eel, rosy pink around the edge and fading to pale cream within, might be at the Silk Cut end of the smokiness spectrum but the accompanying horseradish will blow your head off. Dover sole is sautéed to a platonic ideal of golden brown and the butter melted to the limpid yellow of young Sauternes.

280 year old restaurant with a refined and top end appeal. Mobile phones and photographing food and each other is not the done thing so you will find people actually engaging with each other here! From the moment you walk in to the time you leave its a pleasure to be here. Greeted by the front of house who took our coats we were ushered to our table, a quaint booth for four. We started with a nice bottle of house champers which was cold and crisp and a good palette cleanser. We had a few more of these over the course of the meal. My company went for the seasonal menu which was £40 for two courses, and was very reasonable. They all went for oysters and they looked good and had no complaints. I went for the twice baked Colston Basset Stilton soufflé from the Al la Carte, which was incredible! Full of flavour and the texture of soft velvet. I could have eaten that 3 times over! I followed with a steak, sirloin, med/rare, which was disappointing, tough, but perfectly seasoned and cooked. I believe it was simply a bad cut and when I mentioned this the order was immediately removed from the bill, which was impressive considering one of my friends had endeavoured to eat it anyway. The party ordered the lemon sole, which I tried and it was fresh and light, well seasoned and perfectly cooked. Note: this is predominantly a fish restaurant, stupid of me really to go with steak but even so this is worth pointing out. I will 100% order a fish main next time. I finished with Crème Brulé which was also excellent and finished my meal off nicely! Overall, wonderful! Service was impeccable, food was superb despite the steak, and ambiance flawless. I will be back, I will order fish and I will tell people to visit! Thank you for accommodating us!

One of the top 10 dinners of my life. Great old school French style atmosphere and service. Reminds me of La Grenouille in New York. Very fresh seafood. The most tender and delicious Dover sole I ve had. It had a nice thin crispy layer on top. I love langoustine and they are hard to find in the US so I was thrilled when they had them as an appetizer and served with homemade mayo. I wanted to eat here again immediately.

We booked dinner at Wilton s for my birthday during a 5 day visit to London. I wanted a quintessential British restaurant with formal service, but not stuffy. We were not disappointed! From our cocktails (cucumber martini for me, pear vodka for my husband) to dessert, everything was delicious. I had lobster bisque that was full of lobster flavor and not too rich, my husband had oysters and then gazpacho. Dover sole for me with spinach, cooked to perfection and a very generous fillet. If you are looking for old school style with outstanding ingredients cooked well, you won t be disappointed.

Incredible dining experience. Almost every dish hit exactly how it was supposed to. The bread and butter is always a good indicator for the rest of the meal and it was on point. The lobster bisque and crab with avocado were sublime. The cheese souffle is truly genius, with a rich depth of flavour that carries from the first bite to the last. The steak was good quality beef, although the lack of attempt at searing did not do the beef justice. Desserts were reasonable. The summer pudding was overloaded on the tart side, and the chocolate fondant was rich and decadent. The two paired together fared nicely although this is probably unintended. The two desserts separately were a bit unbalanced. I would have loved to try the bread and butter pudding. Service was attentive and unintrusive if a little stiff, but it is a bit more of a stiff fine dining type of restaurant so this is somewhat expected. All in all a top tier dining experience. I would love to return when I am next in town as it is a restaurant for those who are truly interested in eating food that is properly tasty and well executed. This is not a place for instagram but for gourmands.

I was a tourist, and I went to eat here on a very hot day. Hence, I was wearing a cotton Mickey Mouse t-shirt, legging, and sneakers (with a backpack and ball cap). They told my boyfriend, who was dressed nicer than me, we could stop in to eat lunch. I didn t see their dress code paper in the front area. The staff treated me so well with so much respect, I was very appreciative for their kindness even though I was not dressed appropriately to dine at their restaurant. Even the hostess helped me put on my backpack for me. I am very grateful for the courtesy and hospitality of the British people.

We had a very nice dinner for four here. The menu is not expansive, but what Wiltons do, they do very well. The oyster selection was divine, and a lesson in the subtle difference in type of oyster. The Turbot was superb. The cheesecake, like no other. My partner had grouse, and wasnt happy with the liver pate accompanying it, but apart from that the meal was exceptionally good. The service is excellent, and at times slightly overwhelming, but staff were mostly happy, helpful and friendly. The atmosphere is quite formal, but not too austere. Definitely a place for a special and slightly formal occasion. Vegetarian options: Dont expect more than one, or maybe two vegetarian options for starter and main courses

People often ask me which is my favourite restaurant, I find it hard to say, as I go to so many, and like to try new places all the time. However, one invitation I will never refuse, and one restaurant I will never tire of is Wiltons. It is here over 40 years ago I spent almost a weeks wages on a couple of glasses of Chablis and some giant prawns, at the bar. My last supper would have to include Wiltons Lobster Thermidor. I cant wait to return.
