Celebrated French chef Claude Bosi launched Claude Bosi at Bibendum back in 2017, with a ground-floor seafood and oyster bar and first-floor restaurant which is ‘unashamedly fine dining’, with the chef's signature contemporary and light-hearted flair.

The a la carte menu features some of his signature classics and the chef’s Michelin-starred alma matter, with ingredients sourced predominantly from the British Isles and France. The striking upstairs dining room with its dramatic and iconic floor-to-ceiling stained glass windows has been redesigned to house a larger central open kitchen. The light and airy dining room will feature the original Conran chairs with a soft colour palate of muted blues.

Such an outstanding experience for our special occasion - In London for a couple of weeks, we determined that dining with Bibendum was the opportunity to celebrate my husband's successful retirement. Fabulous food, wonderful service, and more. The wine pairings were impeccable as well. Thank you, Bibendum!

The restaurant is great and the service excellent. However, a minimum price per head for lunch approaching £200 is just ridiculous and the food does not justify that. The choice is also really limited. The likes of Le Gavroche are a positive bargain by comparison.

Our meal last night was every bit a three star Michelin experience. The room beautiful, the service impeccable, the food was devine, and the wines were excellent. Bibendum has two well deserved stars now, but watch out for a third.

If I could possibly rate the restaurant higher than 5 stars then I would. What a wonderful experience - from beginning to end - the attention to we received from entering, through dining, to leaving was beyond exceptional. The food - every single dish was an incredible delight of flavors, so creative and unusual, something so above a "wonderful" dining experience. The creativity, the presentation - I cannot think of enough words to express our satisfaction with every detail. I simply recommend Bibendum as one of the most pleasurable dining experiences you'll ever have the opportunity to enjoy. Thank you Claude Bosi and your fabulous, attentive staff.

Service staff were very warm & attentive. Found the food quite unique but not a fan of warm main course alongside cold side dishes. Also slightly burnt madeleines shouldn’t happen at this level.

We had a fabulous time. The food, the staff, the ambience were all exceptional. I don’t wish to sound arrogant but I have dined at many Michelin 3 star establishments & in my view there is no question Bibendum should be awarded 3 stars. It was great to see Claude at the pass - which can be rare these days ! The waiters were all engaging and understood the dishes. The sommelier was passionate & knowledgeable & the food was amazing - the quality of the produce, the flavours & the finesse with which the dishes were created made the experience one of the best I have had. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the restaurant to anyone & hopefully it won’t be too long before we’re back there again
