The Ritz Restaurant (Mayfair)

• Afternoon tea at the Ritz is the worst of London's grand hotels
• After an hour tables were being cleared for next service and we were prompted with our bill
• Far better places to go unless Ritz name is your thing
• I visited Ritz and he whole experience was amazing a total 5 star kind
• The afternoon was out of this world
• Presentation was awesome to say the least
• The doormen were like really polite and so friendly
• Thank you so much for the best afternoon ever
• Fortunately this was not the case here
• The lowest price is around £
• The bottle of Marlborough Pinor Noir we ordered was delightful
• That the set lunch was very good indeed
• So by going down that route you really are not slumming it
• We were quite happy to just go with a jug of tap water (admittedly a silver plated one)
• The amuse bouche was served in a Champagne glass and we chose some rather nice bacon flavoured home made bread
• The set lunch menu was certainly enticing
• Delivered under cloches and revealed with some theatre
• The Chestnut Souffle with Rum ice cream
• We did not order coffee but were still presented with what I can honestly say were the best selection of petit fours I have had in a restaurant for a long time
• So in summary although the food is not cutting edge by any means
• Everything was uniformly excellent and that is a rarity even in the best of restaurants
• The team room is pure glamour high ceilings
• Husband and I are at their 7
• We start off with Tea Orange Pekoe with a side of champers for Husband &
• The sandwiches are chicken mayo
• Smoked salmon were definite favourites and we cheekily took advantage of a few helpings of those
• It wasn't just that they were warm and soft and melt in the mouth I can't even explain they were perfectly formed rounds of goodness
• The dessert plate came with macaroons (Half Lemon &
• Half Blueberry with a white choc center)
• The trolley came around with Strawberry trifle and a choice of Black Forest cake and Lemon Drizzle
• It's easy to see why the Ritz is largely seen as the 'place for tea'
• It's glamorous with a touch of old fashioned class and charm
• This meal began with a few nibbles including unusually light and fluffy cheese gougeres
• The first course was a mosaic of game
• Delicately cooked and served with cauliflower and spiced apple
• The langoustine was palpably fresh
• The only slight flaw was the cauliflower crisp was a little soggy
• Truffled egg was served on a pomme puree with spinach and a garnish of white truffle
• The potato was smooth and buttery
• A generous slab of turbot from a large fish was served with pumpkin
• Apple parfait with vanilla and calvados ice cream was excellent
• Finally a classic Mont Blanc with caramelised pear completed the meal
• Even with a packed dining room dishes appeared and were removed at a steady pace
• Though there is a three course menu available at £
• Chocolate and hazelnut ice bombe with hazelnut daquiose and feullatine
• Shaped chocolate curls were as fragile as a house of cards
• We were led back up to the splendour of the hotel and into the restaurant for lunch where we would be presented with the very same bombe for our dessert
• Gently poached fish daintily embellished with dots of roe atop a beetroot smear that wouldn&rsquo
• Our sommelier for lunch put us at ease with no wine babble
• We fell in love with the red wine from Bordeaux &ndash
• Next was Loin of lamb with a herb crust
• I am not normally a fan of lamb but this was really good
• The herb crust was exactly that
• Of course dessert was our Chocolate and hazelnut bombe masterpiece
• E Champagne and with dishes expertly carved or filleted in front of your very eyes
• A silver tray of petit fours including macarons and gorgeous raspberry topped cakes complete with a teeny &lsquo
• We always write with complete honesty
• The Ritz Restaurant makes you feel like in wonderland with its chandeliers and perfect high ceilings
• It is the best place for a formal occasion with family and friends
• I chose crepes suzette which are meant to be shared by two people and they will be prepared for you at the table
• The restaurant is obviously expensive and you should expect to spend a minimum of 150 £
• The tea served in the silver teapots were constantly being refilled and so as the sandwiches
• On Sunday evening we went to The Ritz for a celebration dinner and I can hands down say that it was the best dining experience I&rsquo
• The interior of the dining room is flawless and truly has a wow factor
• We were brought bread to start with followed by canapé
• Whoever came up with the macaroon is a genius because it was such a creative and tasty little invention &ndash
• The texture was like sashimi and it was served with Cucumber and Lemon Crè
• The pate was starter was also delicious
• The way the dishes were served and lids were lifted up all together was very nice and traditional
• The lamb was served with Herb Crust
• Was made very nicely but was the only dish that didn&rsquo
