About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
  • Neighborhood gem
Opened in 1984 by passionate chef Sally Clarke, this local legend on Kensington Church Street has become a firm favourite with professional critics and amateur gourmets alike. For 21 years, Sally served a four-course ‘no choice’ set dinner, but now there is a daily-changing menu that showcases her passion for high quality seasonal produce. Herbs and vegetables come from organic suppliers in South East England; buffalo mozzarella is flown in from Naples twice a week; and shellfish is sent overnight by rail from Scotland. Popular dishes include loin of Balmoral roe deer with apple and sage sauce; baked fillet of Cornish brill with datterini tomatoes and flowering thyme; dark chocolate and chestnut tart. Clarke’s is quite simply an unforgettable experience.

    Clarke’s continues to impress time and again with excellent food, impeccable and personal service and a great atmosphere. We have been many, many times, will continue to do so, and look forward to our evenings there with friends or, as was the case this time; on special occasions.

    Sally Clarke,owner and gracious hostess, greets guests at the door to make them immediately welcome. Her staff follows her example. Visiting from San Francisco, no visit to London is complete without a visit to Sally Clarke’s,

    my first visit will i hope mark many returns. The food matched the service in its excellence. the attention to detail in all respects was as good as I have ever experienced. As for pricing, I would say that I got my values worth, with the quite magnificently prepared and presented Dover sole. Thank YOU all.
