The best restaurants in St James's City of London, Westminster London

My husband and myself were in london for a theatre trip and stumbled across this place whilst looking for somewhere to eat. From the moment we walked in the service was amazing, The whole team were attentive and couldn’t be more helpful. Food was outstanding and reasonably priced and the drinks list was extensive (a great range of cocktails available) Will return next time we are in London

The staff were really friendly the steak was beautiful couldn’t fault it and would recommend. They even helped with dietary needs

Great experience with Italian food

Light, airy and comfortable. Pretty standard breakfast, disappointing black pudding. Good service and reasonably priced for this neck of the woods. It's direct competition is the Wolesley, round the corner. Similar price but the Wolesley has a more impressive dining room.

Asistimos a una reunión de ex alumnos en Margot. Éramos más de 20. Estábamos en la habitación de abajo tan aislados de otros comensales El servicio fue excelente y gestionaron muy bien la logística Tuvimos un menú restringido, pre-elegido, por lo que esta opinión no puede comentar el menú a la carta Había una selección de burrata y calabaza, carpaccio de lubina y sarro de ternera para empezar. Tuve la lubina que es bueno y las otras opciones fueron bien comentados Los principales incluían pato a l'orange, risotto de remolacha o filete de salmón. El pato estaba excelente, cocinado bien, algo que muchos restaurantes malinterpretan cuando sirven a una gran multitud. Una vez más, las otras redes fueron bien recibidas. Para terminar tuvimos una elección de helado, bueno, tiramisú o panna cotta, de nuevo bien recibido Colectivamente estábamos muy contentos con la comida y el servicio

Acogí una cena de negocios aquí por recomendación de un conocido, y fui con expectativas razonables y de buen humor. Era bastante temprano en una tranquila noche de lunes y normalmente uno podría hacer concesiones para eso, especialmente si es un restaurante informal. Si todos se esfuerzan, instintivamente me resisto a publicar una crítica negativa. Pero no esta vez, la experiencia olía a "no nos importa", y sugiero que en el negocio de la hospitalidad, eso es simplemente inaceptable.

Troppo costoso per la qualità .Dolci pessimi.Abbiamo mangiato cervo/ agnello / sandwich di aragosta , non ricordo esattamente il nome dei dolci.Nessun piatto era all’altezza di un ristorante così famoso

Sadly this is not what it was. Has it been sold on? Is it suffering from the owners' expansion and lackof attention? When it was the owners' only restaurant it was superb. Things have changed. I was here with 3 others in December '24, and 1 other in January '25, on both those visits all were disappointed. Some points from the January visit. The majority of oysters on the chalk board were NOT available - including all the ones we had decided to order having read the descriptions. Why have a chalkboard if you cannot be bothered to change it daily, or at least mark on it what's available that day? (A sign of the care & attention given now). The oysters we did have were good. The main course of skate wing was over-sauced in a strong salty dark brown sauce that smothered the taste of fresh fish (the menu did say with chicken jus) . Four differing people across my last two visits have tried this and agree that this recipe kills the fish . And...on the latest visit the skate wing had a litte 'wooliness' to the flesh, was it not as fresh as it could have been? (This was on a Thursday when fresh fish is available daily). The chips have a spicy coating, which they do tell you, but - that seems at odds with the way The Oystermen started - with wonderful fresh tastes to complement wonderful fresh fish. RIP my and my friends'relationship with this rerstaurant (now chain of?)

This has been the best restaurant I've visited as a food allergy sufferer! I finally found a place where I feel safe enough to eat anything on the menu. The food was amazing; I almost wanted to lick the plate, but since I was on a date, that probably wouldn’t be a wise move! I will definitely be coming back to this restaurant more often!

We enjoy a visit to The Port House and this was another enjoyable meal. There are a tables are small, particularly those on the right hand side of the restaurant, those on the opposite side are a touch more generous. Our food was once again delicious: Iberian ham, selection of cheeses, patatas bravas, tortilla and tempura aubergine with hummus, perfect portions to share, washed down by a delight Vino Verde. The service was good, location excellent and food delicious, what’s not to like. Highly recommended.

At check-in they demanded extra money as a guarantee. I do not know what kind of customers they usually have in their hotel and they need to keep extra money as a guarantee but in our case we consider it offensive. We did not pay that guarantee but we had an unpleasant discussion with the receptionist and the manager and this was certainly not the welcome that one (who had paid for the whole stay in advance, six months before arrival - non refundable rate) expects. About the room: Locked windows and wall-to-wall carpeting, both against the hygiene rules. In addition, the window panes were not clean and there were stains on the curtains. About the breakfast: Most of the products (croissants, waffles, etc.) were always cold and matched perfectly with the literally cold room on the rooftop that is used as a breakfast room (despite the fact that there is a bar-restaurant on the ground floor). Additional negatives: They offer only one umbrella and only one mobile plug adaptor per room (not per person). I give three stars (and not less) because the reservations department respected our request regarding the type of room.

Anoche mis amigos y yo nos lo pasamos genial. El personal era muy amable y servicial, la seguridad, los camareros, los gerentes... que hizo el equipo perfecto! Increíble vibra. ¡Sin duda volveré pronto!

Servicio increíble y deliciosa comida! Tuvimos la cena Set for Success para dos para que pudiéramos probar un poco de todo y nada decepcionado. Nuestros servidores y el gerente también eran atentos y muy bien informados. El sake también fue tops. Justo para dos personas. Muy recomendable!

The toilets did not respect human dignity. But the restaurant is nice (:
