    Clos Maggiore is a brilliant, atmospheric venue. The staff are warm, friendly and professional and the food is excellent. We were made to feel very welcome and despite the two-hour dining window allocated, there was no pressure on us to leave. This was our third visit and it was amazing every time.

    One of the pricier joints in the city, but unlike some places - here you paid for quality. The service was friendly, relaxed and helpful - something you *sometimes* don't get in higher end restaurants . The food was delicious, we all had pasta, and the waiters are willing to alter recipe's depending on what you like- for example a member of our party didn't like chilli's, so the waiter simply offered to make it without. The craft Italian cocktails was a newly uncovered gem, unexpected to find in Mayfair, and the atmosphere inside was delightful.

    Everything was great, the tuna, sibas, praws! Amazing dips and bread, but Greek salad was floating in so much oil. Also, my favourite umbrella from my dad was stolen from that restaurant... :( but i would come back for food again for sure!
