Hakkasan Mayfair in City of London, Westminster

The Iberian pork and venison in particular were fantastic. Great food and service.

Hakkasan Mayfair was an incredible dining experience and the perfect introduction to London's culinary scene during my first trip to the city. From the moment I walked in, I was completely captivated by the restaurant's sophisticated and vibrant atmosphere. The staff were truly exceptional - especially Edgar, who was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive from start to finish. Their menu recommendations were spot on, showcasing an impressive understanding of the cuisine and a genuine desire to ensure I had the best possible dining experience. The food was nothing short of spectacular. Every single dish was meticulously prepared, beautifully presented, and bursting with incredible flavors. The culinary craftsmanship was evident in every bite. The atmosphere was another highlight - simultaneously cool, elegant, and energetic. It struck the perfect balance between fine dining sophistication and a fun, welcoming environment. I'm already looking forward to my next visit to London, and Hakkasan Mayfair will absolutely be my first dining destination. Surely will be coming back soon!

Lovely Boxing Day tradition for our family, great food, good cocktails, lovely atmosphere

Lovely personable waiter. Service was great. Food is mid. Some dishes were great, others a total miss. Atmosphere was vibey and crowd was good.

Best part about this place is the service. We were served mainly by Aziz who was great, but the whole staff was super kind and helpful. We also enjoyed the variety of flavors! I loved dim sums, crispy duck salad and stir fried beef! P.S. it was great that we had no issues visiting this place with newborn in pram.

Excellent atmosphere, delicious food, great service, good music - An extraordinary experience.

Expect your bill to be around £700 for four people. The food however was worth it.

I visited the bar only (No food) and the cocktails are some of the best I’ve ever had! From the revisitation of Negroni and all the others, they were all top notch!

Nice food, but very crowded and tables are way too close to each other, feels like you are sitting together and sharing the conversation.

Great for lunch - the duck starter salad is fantastic

You really can't go wrong here other than when you end up getting seated next to an over-excited Instagram posting group, that gets a bit annoying. Not the restaurant's fault I guess, but I suppose they could introduce a no phones policy? Top class food and service which should be enjoyed, not photographed and posted for self glorification, no?

Took a friend here to celebrate their birthday. The food was fine, but not amazing. I think for the price, I would expect more creativity, given the brand etc. I had steamed sea bass which was nice. My friends ordered beef and pork dishes which they enjoyed. Dessert was very good! Our waiter was really attentive. It was a bit loud at times so difficult to hear each speak but overall we had a nice time. There are so many places in London with amazing food at half the price so for that reason, I wouldn’t rush back.

the duck salad starter and beef main were both unreal and the service was great. 10/10 experience.

It was a excellent experience at the restaurant the food was amazing and the toliet was nice I would like to go there again Thank you for a lovely experience From Will.

What a lovely dinner we had here!!! From the entrance, service, the bar and sommelier The food we really enjoyed it (kudos for the portions too) we had a LOVELY evening We will definitely be back :)

Nice location. Very expensive food...I only recommend the dim sum-...the other dishes are either too expensive or a little less expensive but almost all fried (without this being indicated on the menu)...overall...not worth the price expense...which was 60 pounds per person (total 120 for 4 dishes: a vegan dim sum selection and 3 small eats...which are still plentiful (not very small) and can be shared, without having taken wine and without dessert). If you want to see a nice place in London come here... if you want to eat well go elsewhere ;)

We had a fantastic server and I’m sorry I can’t remember his name! Food was superb, particularly the Dim Sum. Despite the hefty price, I’d definitely go again, the food is that good!

The food is very late. The timing is not accurate. Be careful. 10:15. We handed over the table. It is now 11:00 and you are paying. The bill was forged. An employee says that she ordered a bottle of champagne and we are Muslims and we only ordered! When we proved that with pictures, she changed the bill but did not admit that it was false.

Nice ambience, great meal presentation, friendly staff and most importantly, great meal sizes and overall quality

We had an issue with our reservation & we waited for one hour to fix it & there was one excellent employee “Maria” who helped us through it & managed to find a high table then the service was very very late where we took 1/2 hour to order the food & other 2 hours to receive it all. It was one of our worst experiences in the restaurant around the world except the marvelous “Maria” who tried her best to make it good experience however the other employee wasn’t helpful at all & the service was very late.

"Exceptional Dining Experience: A Must-Try" The dining experience at this restaurant was absolutely fantastic. The ambiance sets the perfect mood, complemented by exceptionally attentive staff. The highlight, however, was undoubtedly the food. Offering some of the best Chinese cuisine I've ever tasted, every dish was a delight. I highly recommend trying their menu; it’s a must for any food lover!

First and foremost, the overall impression is that the price can not defend the food and service. We ordered quite «normal» food based on common raw materials (satay chicken, slices of meat, tofu and noodles) and ended up paying £150 for food only. Even though the dishes, except for the tofu, tasted very well, I miss a sense of creativity and finess on the dishes. In particular when you take into account the reputation they have and the price they demand. We also ordered a carafe of wine and a drink each (two in total), adding up to £80. The bland taste of the drinks made them a disappointment. In addition, we asked for the drinks to be served as starters, but we got them in the middle of the meal. Drinks should be an easy fix compared to food, so this feels very strange. Yes, the waiters cared about the visitors by being kind and gently giving advice, but when they do not follow our request, and also answers our questions wrongly, the service does not add any value to our visit.

Excellent food with steamed dumpings being the highlight.

High-end Cantonese, Rec: dimsum experience, silver cod, ⭐️

We went for the set menu here and it was amazing 🤩 lots of food and the most amazing Ferrero rocher dessert! Yum! 😋

Excellent customer service, attentive and helpful. The food was great! We had a good mix from all parts of the menu, each was great! Thank you for such a great dining experience!

Amazing food choice, quality, presentation and taste! Atmosphere was great but the music was intrusive. Service was good, but not to the standard expected. Would certainly revisit!

Great experience at Hakkasan for dinner. No halal options but staff are very aware of any dishes with alcohol in them. Seafood dim sum was the highlight, highly recommend. Steamed Chilean sea bass was good but lacked a bit of flavour; melted in your mouth and had great texture. Jivara bomb for dessert was really good actually. Overall, I'd recommend Hakkasan for an occasion if you enjoy fine dining here and there. Like most high end restaurants, you’re definitely overpaying for the food but the atmosphere is really nice. Service is good, nothing really exceptional. I did not feel like we were “looked after” but that’s fine. We were given some truffles to take home, which was a nice touch though!

Delicious sushi and great service, but the music was a bit too loud at times.

5 star food tailor made to Westerners. Prepared to be disappointed if you expect authentic Chinese dishes.

Completely over priced nonsense. Signature dishes served with wilted salad that wouldn't have looked out of place in a grotty Harvester. Service that could barely raise a smile, be bothered to work out which of the cocktails we were being served contained alcohol and which didn't (leaving us to have to work it out) or remember to place an order for all the dishes we ordered. It felt like a very tired and extremely overpriced experience trading on a brand name whilst delivering an experience that doesn't even come close to delivering on food quality or service from a restaurant that is 25% of the cost. You can tell that they don't care because I sent them detailed feedback when they requested it after our booking but nobody bothered to respond. Avoid this place. -------------------------- UPDATE - they still haven't replied to the detailed feedback they asked for via their booking system. --------------------------- UPDATE - they now replied via email with the same templated response they post here: 'We would like to sincerely apologise that you had a disappointing experience whilst dining with us at Hakkasan Mayfair. It is only with our guest feedback that we are able to improve time and time again. I can guarantee that I will pass this on to the relevant management teams for review to make all the relevant improvements. Once again, I would like to highlight how much we value our guest feedback and we hope that you visit us in the future so that we have a chance to redeem ourselves.' Not a single concern we mentioned was addressed.

Excellent food however the service should have been better considering the price. For example we waited quite a while for drinks each time we ordered and it took some effort to get the waiters attention if we had any questions. Overall service felt commercial/clinical rather than personal. I personally wouldn't return for dining in.

A large restaurant arranged on the ground and basement serving modern Chinese food with good service.

We was very disappointed firstly the tables are to close together the people sitting next to you are on your lap it’s ridiculous. The food is so overpriced it’s laughable £38 for chow Sui pork we got 5 tiny pieces of pork the wouldn’t feed a cat and had absolutely no taste to it. The food was average at best not much taste to any of it really disappointed really bland tasteless food the place itself held a good bubbly atmosphere if you want to get ripped off go there they are robbing you for your money BE WARNED!

Food was absolutely average. Hostess stand had no clue of what they were doing!! New ownership means it has gone down hill

Another terrific experience, we love that setting, the service and, as ever, the food was amazing!

Love the ambience and food, definitely will be back at Hakkasan very soon.

I enjoyed the vegan dim sum—it was delicious! However, the chicken senapi with steamed rice was not tasty😖. The reception staff were very welcoming, but overall table service was just okay/dry—considering the 11% service charge, I expected better. Was it worth the money? Unfortunately, no.

Service was terrible. Front reception was very welcoming though

Great food, loved the ambiance. Looking forward to coming again soon!

Fantastic food and table service. Shame that the front of house ladies were so rude about us having children and pushchairs after the booking team had left a voicemail saying it was ok, just no high chairs. Also a shame that the wooden structures were so filthy which was really highlighted when the lights shone on it

Erica was an exceptional waiter! Her service was top-notch and truly made our dining experience memorable

Quality food n service thanks guys 🙏🏿

We've been several times and normally are very happy, but on this occasion the service was poor and food was barely warm when delivered to table. Not up to expectations.

Experience was outstanding. We were also given a desert for my Wife's Birthday with her name on it. The only thing I did not like is they made me wait 30 minutes which I felt was really frustrating since I made the booking weeks in advance.

We dined at the restaurant for dinner. The atmosphere was enjoyable, and the staff was friendly and attentive. The food was exceptionally delightful. However, one area that could benefit from enhancement is the dress code, as I believe this establishment should implement a dress code policy.

We had a great time. Tasty food and we weren't hurried out. Would go again and recommend.

Good is excellent but the place is very noisy Service is excellent

When ordering make sure to inform them to serve starters before main dish or otherwise they might serve the main dish even before the soup or salad or the appetizers

We came here for dinner for the first time. The service was exceptional, very attentive polite staff. The food was very good and the cocktails were delicious. I enjoyed all the dishes we ordered, the famous peking duck was also done well and served nicely all ready to eat. It was very busy even for a Sunday night and I liked the ambience. I didn’t give 5 stars because it’s quite pricey and the restroom is a bit small for the number of tables they had. We were also asked to leave our table and sit at the bar after about 2.5 hours because apparently they needed the table but we stayed at the bar for another 2 hours having drinks and the whole time we didn’t see anyone sat at our table and there were actually a few other empty tables, so don’t understand the rush of getting us out, not great

Service was quick, food and ambience were great. Server was not the most pleasant.

Amazing as usual food and atmosphere ❤️ Specially the service, food

Highly recommended! Great cuisine, great ambience, just great. There is nothing more to add. A must on every trip to London! Be sure to reserve on the weekend. Best in the basement or on the ground floor. Great food, great people!

The security at the gate tied up the tape to signal us to not go in without a reservation, as if just saying it wasn't enough 😂 PS: This was around 11pm on a weekday

Great experience as always. The food and atmosphere is fantastic. Though there was some confusion about our dishes but overall fantastic experience.

Small portions of food . I really enjoyed the food I got but it’s not the place or food I enjoyed it was the company of my partner. They give you a set menu if you have a voucher as a gift with tiny portions of food , no voucher big plates of food ?

The place is now relying on its old reputation it taste of food for the price is not good enough! We had the premium most expensive menu and finished not satisfied!

A superb place in every sense. The perfect mixture of delicious food, a great choice of drinks and a fabulous atmosphere will spice your stay and enjoyment just enough that you won't be able to resist coming back again.

A modern Chinese restaurant with very good food. Advance reservations are required

Thanks to Antonello we have a great experience at the restaurant🙏🏼 The duck salad is delicious 😋.

Food was bang average. Service was excellent. Go to duck and rice for better food and less expense. Go to park chinois for better food and unbelievable atmosphere. £75 per head is what we paid for vegetarian and vegan food.

Can’t complain amazing experience, food was perfect. Service was absolutely amazing. Staff was very welcoming and friendly.

Can I just say Thank you to the Hakkasan team, I was very late, due to miscalculation of traffic, road works etc. Staff were still very very accommodating, they didn’t kick of a fuss they were very polite and professional they simply asked us to wait for a free table before being seated. The food was 10/10 the drinks were spot on everything about this night was fab. Thank you will deffo be back in the new years x

We took the set menus which were very disapointing! We were 6 people but we shared same size plates as the table of 4 next to us. The food did not justify the price, it was mainly deep fried and not very flavousome. It ended up costing over £200 per head. The place was super busy so we cannot say that the atmosphere was great either. Will not return.

The best restaurant ever highly recommended 💕

Too many fried dishes and some of them were bland Not really value for money

The food was amazing, went to the brunch 80pp menu.

I loved everything about the restaurant, the vibes, the service and the food were perfect .. especially our waiter “Aivaras” 👍🏻

£425 for a lunch for 2. Upon examining 8 dim sum pieces for £50. HakkaSan you’ve out priced yourself and scared me to not come back.

amazing meal. fabulous service from Manny. thank you!

Dining at Hakkasan is a real treat. We enjoyed thoroughly the whole experience. The food is exceptional, the staff is very friendly and polite. They cater for your requirements. Can only recommend. Thank you ☺️

It is our favorite restaurant in London. We were treated royally as always.

While the ala carte menu is excellent the fix priced multi-course menu is a bit too expensive

The food was amazing. We were sat near where the waiters reside and they were constantly giggling to themselves and considering we were celebrating an engagement, a good table would have been nice - this was quite off putting. Other than that service was great. We got the signature menu which is also great value.

Overall a really nice experience and some wonderful food and wines , shame the service let the overall experience down, must say the first wine sommelier was amazing

Food was exquisite. We enjoyed the Shou menu, can’t complain about the food. However the two welcoming staff at the entrance were straight up ignoring the hellos and goodbyes, we had to wait 10minutes to be seated when it wasn’t really busy. The waiters were friendly but a bit all over the place. Not the most well organized service for an establishment with supposed higher standards.

Always absolutely the best!amazing experience and food!

My partner and I thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Hakkasan. The waiting staff were exceptionally attentive and provided clear and helpful explanations throughout our meal. We opted for the Taste of Hakkasan menu, starting with the vegan dim sum and duck salad—both excellent choices. For the mains, my partner chose the spicy prawns, which were flavorful but lacked the expected spiciness, while I had the ribeye. Unfortunately, the ribeye was slightly overcooked and a bit tough, though I hadn’t specified medium rare. We also ordered a side of pak choi in oyster sauce, which complemented the meal beautifully. Dessert was delightful, with hazelnut ice cream—a personal favorite—though it felt less aligned with traditional Cantonese flavors. The cocktails were a highlight, skillfully crafted and beautifully presented. Overall, it was a great experience, and I’d gladly return to explore more of the menu.

Excellent bday celebration. 4th time that we have been. Excellent food, very attentive service from Maria (from Brazill) and her team. I tend to go for my bdays and I am never disappointed. Their taste of Hakkasan deal is also value for money for a restaurant of this calibre. Thank you for making my birthday special.

From the moment we stepped into Hakkasan Mayfair, it was clear we were in for an exceptional experience. Despite arriving earlier than our booking time, the staff were incredibly accommodating and managed to seat us without any fuss—a gesture that set the tone for the evening. The warm and friendly greeting from every member of the team made us feel immediately welcome. The atmosphere inside the restaurant was phenomenal—an elegant mix of sophistication and vibrancy that created the perfect backdrop for our evening. A special mention must go to the sommelier, Sasha/Sacha (excuse the spelling), whose expertise elevated our dining experience. His recommendations on both the red and dessert wines were spot on and perfectly complemented the exquisite dishes we enjoyed. Speaking of the food, every single dish that came out was an absolute delight. The flavours were refined, the presentation flawless, and the quality second to none. If you go, do not miss the duck salad—it’s truly something special and one of the best dishes I’ve had in a long time. For my first visit to Hakkasan Mayfair, I can honestly say it exceeded every expectation. I loved every second of it, and I can’t wait to return. This restaurant is an absolute must-visit for anyone seeking a world-class dining experience. Five stars well deserved!

Incredibly efficient and attentive staff. Our son has autism and they were very sensitive to us. I’ve dined here many times in a business capacity but never much personal. However, our family will definitely coming back!

this is definitely one of the best restaurants in London food is amazing. Atmosphere is great. The service is untouchable. Everyone must try this restaurant it will end up being your go to Restaurant when you travel to London

Lunchtime at Hakkasan. Fabulous treat. Excellent value, three courses for £39pp. We indulged with the £49 option with a glass of champagne. To start we had the crispy duck (£5 supplement) and crispy rolls. For mains we had the beef and the spicy prawns. Every plate was superb, presented with care and delicious. A lovely chocolate dessert to finish. Paid extra for a fine cocktail each - the smokey Negroni was fabulous. Excellent attentive service - wonderful time. Highly recommend

Found this by accident and decided to check it out. Now I have had my far share if Chinese food but this place served top notch Chinese food. Will definitely go back!

I love Hakkasan. Food is amazing. I just don’t like paying 15% (which was 22£) for the service charge.

This is fine dining restaurant in London! The food is good. And i love the most how they decorate dishes! Very cute!

Great meal, was slightly overcharged but it’s fine. Yummy

Absolutely delicious food beautifully presented, coupled with impeccable service. Hakkasan remains one of our favourite restaurants in London.

The roast duck was awful and not hot and we weren't shown the whole intact duck, and the other dishes didn't feel like Chinese food at all, not for Chinese people. I am a Chinese social media blogger and I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone. We sat in the corner and the waiter couldn't see us, so I don't think the 15 % service charge is worth it either."

Exceptionally good service. Great starters. Did not like the prawn spicy yellow curry, but the chicken and tofu were delicious

It is important to write that we have been there during lunch time, but we were impressed! Their service is perfect, but their food is excellent! My last visit there was time ago, but Hakkasan’s menu is improved and very delicious! Thank you Hakkasan Mayfair!

Hakkasan starts to amaze you already at the entrance. The place is gorgeous and staff's hospitality is rare. The food is truly perfect. Dont miss the Peking duck salad and the smoked rib. We loved every minute there.

Foods was abit pricey but very nice. Service was fantastic, very attentive so we didn’t mind paying £100 for service. The place was quite dark didn’t look as glamorous as we would have like. But overall foods was nice. The duck was far too pricey we probably enjoy it more with just the duck itself with the bones. Probably never order that duck again .

Great food, nice atmosphere however terrible service from our waiter. She was rude. I have never seen something like that. At one point I had to asked is she is ok, what is happening? She rushed us throughout the entire night. When I asked for a drink she told “the drinks comes in seconds, tell me the food order please”??? When we asked for a second duck salad, she rolled her eyes. What is this? 😄 must have been a joke.

Bogdan was amazing! We enjoyed everything from service to food!🤌🏻

Food excellent and very tasty. Service was strange - for example, our waiter wouldn’t take our wine order, it had to be the sommelier. Then another waiter didn’t know which wine we were drinking! All the staff were very pleasant and helpful, it seems though that they are managed by ‘process’! We had a lovely evening though!

Two of us had the Jade menu, no alcohol and the final bill came to just under £600. I find this extremely high for the food and service received. For example the rice came after we had already finished our main dishes - I didn't expect to eat a bowl of plain rice by itself at a £600 meal. The wagyu steak was a handful of small cubes and we had an item that wasn't listed and we weren't told - scallops was replaced by octopus. I'm sorry but I've received better service paying significantly less for a meal for two.

Great interior and delicious food, service was very attentive and staff accommodating

Thank you very much for the invitation. Dining at Hakkasan Mayfair is an experience like no other. From the moment you enter, you are enveloped in an atmosphere that combines modern elegance with an elegant atmosphere and dimly lit, ideal for both intimate and special gatherings. The food is Fantastic . Each dish is prepared with meticulous attention to detail, combining authentic Cantonese. Service is phenomenal 😍 We will come back

I want to lead by saying there was nothing really wrong with our time at Hakkasan Mayfair. The staff were attentive, the food was good and the atmosphere was bustling. However, I cannot recommend this restaurant largely due to the frankly astronomical prices. The set menus will set you back a minimum of over £100 a person (and most are even more) with even the ‘Small Plates’ from the a la carte cost over £20. I paid £33 for sweet and sour pork. Again, this was a good plate of food, but wasn’t anything special and was on the smaller side in terms of size. The restaurant was PACKED at 2045 on a Monday, and we had to wait nearly 20 minutes for our table to be ready despite booking. Again, this was not an issue as we were invited to sit at the bar, but this was also packed with awkward standing room only. The cocktails were professionally made but will again set you back £20-30 per cocktail. Overall this was a nice restaurant with good service and classic central London pricing. I cannot recommend it due to the cost to value rate, but equally if you have the money and don’t mind spending it you will not have a bad experience here.
