Le Restaurant de Paul

Food was great, waiting staff not so! Had to ask the staff if I could order a drink and they were not busy so that’s not an excuse. Would have been nice to see a smile.

Great afternoon tea! Would highly recommend.

This was a very poor experience I’m afraid. Having enjoyed Paul patisserie products in the past, I had (wrongly) assumed the restaurant would be decent, if not fantastic. The food quality was substandard and bad value. My steak was over cooked and largely tasteless but had an unpleasant after-taste which I can only liken to rotten meat. The shepherd’s pie was 90% potato with a ridiculously small amount of lamb filling. Onion soup was bearable but quite obviously not made on the premises. Crumble had a stale taste to it and the pastry in our strawberry tart was so tough that even a knife struggled to cut it. The only item I enjoyed was the meringue, which was the cheapest item we bought! Service was pleasant but slow. We will not return and I am unlikely to buy Paul products in the future.

Wonderful

Christmas meal from the Xmas special menus. Fantastic, delicious, plentiful food. Amazing value for money and lovely Restauruant! Great, frienly, attentive staff. Would happily return!

It was just like being in France. Not a huge menu but delicious, all the same.

We had a fabulous family birthday dinner at the restaurant. The staff were wonderful. The food was absolutely top-class. No complaints whatsoever.

The service was wonderful. We were supposed to have had dinner there a couple of days ago, but there was a snafu with our reservation and it was canceled by the restaurant at the last minute. To make it up to us, the manager invited us to come back and enjoy champagne and dessert on them, so we did. We were pressed for time and they were able to get our food out right away. My salad and my husband’s sandwich were perfectly prepared and delicious. We took our dessert to go and enjoyed it later in the evening and it was totally yummy. Next time we’re in London we’ll return for a more leisurely dinner.

In the usual French Cuisine, very good dishes were the pheasant terrine and the soup of the day.

The food as always was lovely and so was the ambience. People were friendly when we arrived. However, after waiting for some time, I got out of my seat to find someone to take our order. We all ordered afternoon tea with free flowing bubbles. The glasses were topped up once, without our prompting, but after that we had to keep asking if it was possible for a top up. It wasn't outside of the time that we were allowed and so it was all a bit irritating.
