Impromptu lunch for 2 whilst shopping on Bond Street. As walk-ins with no reservation we were greeted warmly and shown to a very comfortable booth table in the beautiful art deco dining room. Popular venue for singles, couples and larger groups. Attentive and friendly service, with our menu choices being a Cobb Salad and a Sole Meuniere, with a glass of Chablis each. The hotel and the restaurant presented themselves beautifully; the architecture, artwork, and staffing are all of a very high standard. Recommended. David W, Dec 2024.

Gorgeous Atmosphere, excellent attentive service, food was great. Thank you all, we had a great time! Little personal note: the beef wellington was too thick in my opinion. Still delicious. And we didn’t get to see it before it was cooked and sliced.

I start by saying I super recommend this place. I had a work lunch there and I was super pleased with the food and everything else. We shared some entrees for the table. We ordered the Cesare salad, the smoked eel carbonara (amaaazing!), the smoked salmon and the prawns cocktail. For main we all had the monkfish wellington with a glass of Sauvignon blanc. Super yummy. The atmosphere was lovely and the service high level. I’ll be coming back.

I've been going to The Colony Grill for the past few years. A great place to get steaks that is hidden away from the hustle and bustle of the near by Oxford Street. The steaks are always great quality and perfectly cooked, the hanger steak is probably my favourite right now. A cut from the lower belly that is known for it's flavour and tenderness, not one you usually see on the menu. Perhaps better know as the butchers cut, as it was the cut the butchers always kept for them selves. The real treat is the deserts, want a sundae? You get to select everything you want on it from a small menu you fill out. Go crazy or go simple, it's always great.

My partner surprised me with a dinner at The Beaumont for my birthday and it was absolutely perfect. Everything from the food, to the wine selection and service was outstanding. The staff was really welcoming and friendly, and they’ve turned the dinner into a truly amazing experience. Not to mention the live piano that was a lovely touch.

The Colony Grill Room is a place I’ve always wanted to visit but I never had the time or occasion to actually go. I’m happy that I finally dropped by for a visit this week! We had the beef tartare, which was honestly the best beef tartare I’ve had in my life, to kick off the meal. We were also served with a bread basket, as is typical of any hotel restaurant. For mains, we got both the Turbot and the Ribeye Steak. The steak was really good, well seasoned, was perfectly cooked to medium rare, and complemented the chimichurri sauce on the side. We also ordered some chips to go with the steak. The Turbot was also well-cooked, very soft and juice on the inside and lightly seasoned so you can really enjoy the fish. I get what the hype is about now, with the steak here excellent and the cooking set at a really high standard. The food is really good, albeit it all comes with a pretty steep price tag. Worth it.

Came here for the Valentine’s Day special lunch menu for 90 per pax. Absolutely wonderful and pleasant experience. Staff were very courteous, welcoming and friendly. Food was really tasty. Special mention to the Monkfish Wellington - it had such a great combination of flavour and texture, and the mushroom and pastry that surrounded the monkfish was perfect. We absolutely loved the shellfish bearnaise that accompanied it - great pairing! Unfortunately I don’t think the a la carte menu serves monkfish wellington currently. The beef tartare was the other amazing dish we had. Never had I ate such tasty beef tartare! Foie gras was also one of our favorites and it had such wonderful pairing of flavours. The dessert was white chocolate mousse -Valentine Day special. Likewise, the flavour balance was well thought out, though we were misled by the menu that it was accompanied by sorbet! The ambience is lovely, and there is a pianist playing music live. Had a super enjoyable afternoon.

I visited The Colony Grill for my friend’s 30th birthday and truly enjoyed my experience. The food was exquisite, the ambience was amazing and portion size was very palatable, which was very surprising as usually restaurants in Mayfair tend to serve smaller portions. I felt at times that the service could’ve been a tad quicker as sometimes we were waiting to get the attention of servers for some time. However, Kitty who was an amazing server made our experience wonderful. She paid my friends and I special attention and made herself available to us especially when she noticed that we hadn’t been attended to. That attention to detail was much appreciated from my friends and I, and on that basis, I will most definitely be visiting The Colony Grill again!
