Disappointing experience for a three-star Michelin restaurant. Far from Core's standards. The room was underwhelming, and the staff didn't make us feel special. Service was nothing exceptional and slow at times; we waited 15+ minutes for the meat course. The food was average overall. The caviar starter and the Wagyu main course were very good but came at a hefty price. The tomato tart with haddock was bland, and the langoustine starter was also quite basic. The lamb was too salty too. The baba au rhum was okay, but is it really appropriate for a three-star Michelin menu, especially when it’s something you can get at any brasserie? The sommelier was not very commercial. We won’t be coming back.

Lovely food but not cheap. Wine is very expensive. 15% service charge is on the high side. Had the set lunch which is a lot cheaper than their tasting courses. You do get some very nice complimentary food which tasted divine.

The Connaught is such a lovely hotel and it is complimented by this restaurant. The individual courses and their presentation are outstanding. The staff is attentive and the pace of a multi course meal is unhurried. The pricing is steep and there are “supplements” that add further to the cost. But my experience was quite good and I will be a return customer when in London.

Dear Bikedining, Thank you for your kind words and for choosing to dine with us at The Connaught.
