Best Romantic Restaurants in Flaunden

Lovely Boxing Day lunch, one of our favourite places to eat. Amazing food, friendly staff and a relaxed experience. Thank you.

My five stars don’t get awarded easily, I can assure you! This was something to talk about. It’s only the second time in my life I’ve eaten food at a 2* Michelin chef’s establishment and I beg all readers to do it at least once. Do without, eat frugally, don’t buy birthday or Christmas presents, check down the back of the settee, beg or borrow, find the funds somehow, but go! Scallops that were sumptuous and meltingly tender, the aubergine main that held mystery and interest to the last and dessert was a drama in itself! As with the other time I ate so well, it was impossible to name any one ingredient in any of these offerings, so clever and skilled was the thought, experience and preparation. The service didn’t go unnoticed either, the perfect approach – professionalism, knowledge and a willingness to serve. We had a vegan in our party and she was served with choices adapted specially, beautifully and readily and swooned as much as any of the rest of us! I thank everyone of those involved for the memorable experience. Food is often forgotten once you’re out of the restaurant, not here. I can still conjure the exceptional array of flavours and textures. This lunch made my Christmas and has now started a tradition so expect us next year!

The food was great and the service was excellent. This is a very good restaurant with expert staff. We came here a few years ago shortly after it opened and were a little dissatisfied with the service, but now it has improved incomparably. We were surprised not to see more people there on Christmas Eve.

The buzz was great, service was attentive and prompt. The only shame was the ribs for everyone at our table (8people) were dry, which given its a bbq niche place was surprising.

Food was absolutely delicious - best curry I've had in a long time. Service excellent. My only slight criticism would be decor - as we went near to Christmas it would have been nice to have had a few Christmassy lights/decor. Otherwise, I can't fault it.
