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.

Food was too salty even we told the stuff to decreased saltiness but when next dishes came the taste was same too salty. I wouldn’t recommend anyone to this restaurant again. This experience was so poor. We are so disappointed.

Second time for my partner and I at this amazing place. It lived up to the memory of the first time. Outstanding food with refined balance. Both times we ordered the Taste of the Season menu and it was in both cases delicate and bold at the same time. The wine paring is always very well matched also pushing you to try something different from usual but expertly paired with the food. Service is top notch. I think I see another star coming soon

Eating out is our thing. We've eaten at all of Claudes restaurants over the years, starting in Ludlow. Weve therefore seen the evolution over time of his food. The current restaurant takes things to a new level. Food, wibe, service and ambience - there wasnt a single duff note and many outstanding highlights. Just go there

The restaurant has gone downhill a lot since my experience prior to covid, dishes have become much more simple in presentation and much less effort is put into the dishes (mains and dessert), very disappointing experience

Amazing food set in a beautiful location. Highly recommended for anyone looking to splurge for a Michelin experience. Dress code is very relaxed (there were people in T-shirts and cargo pants while I visited), but I would recommend wearing a suit (most were).

Unfortunately missed the tasting menu, but the three course a la carte had so many extra bits I felt like we almost had it! The sommelier was superb - paired our meals up with some amazing wines by the glass! Wonderful experience.

Claude Bosi was simply amazing - the service was impeccable and they even prepared a lovely chocolate mousse on the house as it was our anniversary! Highly recommend! We had the taste of season menu plus a bottle of £60 wine and a couple of aperitifs. The bill came to £526.80 but we'll worth it! Thanks again for a magical experience.

I had a wonderful experience at Bibendum. Commencing with walking into the dining room, the stained glass windows which lit the room with color in the evening sun set the ambience. The service was excellent from all members and after choosing the Classic option, I was afforded the option of trying a desired item from the Seasonal menu - and was well both it. I also had a personalized wine pairing, all of which fitted the courses beautifully. The food was both imaginative and delicious and all courses were equally strong. I will definitely return and try the new season menu and also strongly recommend to friends.

We were greeted by every member of staff as we arrived and service was exceptionally attentive, chatty and perfectly paced. The atmosphere was gorgeous, from the stained glass to the petrol blue carpets. References to Bibendum, from the elegant wine glasses to the crockery and even the salt and pepper pots, added another layer of thoughtfulness. The technique on show throughout the menu was dazzlingly precise and creative. Highlights in the first courses were the brioche mousse surrounded by foamy foie gras and the layers of flavours in the Bibendum egg, particularly the feta foam. For the mains and fish courses, the goat roulade topped with razor clams and samphire was delicious and well-balanced. Both the frogs legs and monkfish were delicately cooked but the garlic custard and Singapore sauce, respectively, both felt a little off-balance. Likewise, the scallops were incredible but the elderflower vinegar seemed underpowered and could have provided more robust sweetness and floral notes to accentuate the shellfish. The cheese chest contained all of my stinky favourites and, thanks to the knowledge of the waiters, I was able to discover some new ones, including Langres, a soft cheese washed in Champagne and Cathare, a squidgy goats cheese. Desserts were a triumph, particularly the English pea and strawberry dish that had us trying to work out how on Earth the flavours could marry well. The cherries and chocolate in the other puddings were heavenly too. For wine, we were able to have a glass of the same Heidsieck we chose for our wedding toast. We were also introduced to a South African Pinot Noir with much more complexity than usual, and a velvety Calvados, again thanks to the knowledge and enthusiasm of the sommeliers. We left with full bellies, huge smiles and a small gift of sweets as a memento of a wonderful night; an evening I fully intend to repeat.

We had the season menu. Most of the courses were very acid what makes it heavy on your stomach. The presentation was very impressive and beautiful. We can not say the same for the taste as there were basil (pesto) in 3 dishes if I am not mistaken. Service was exceptional. There was an issue with the toilet that I had to advise the hostess.
