Having spent years supplying London’s top restaurants through their separate wine businesses, Joe Haynes and Benedict Butterworth have joined forces with Tom Hurst, who has worked at Brawn, The Marksman, Levan, and most recently as Head Chef at Lasdun, to launch the trio’s first restaurant together.Located in a Grade II listed building on Cloth Fair, Cloth Restaurant is part of a historic row of buildings in the City of London that survived the Great Fire of 1666. Down this atmospheric alley opposite St Bartholomew church, Cloth is taking over a double fronted corner site that’s beneath the former home of poet John Betjeman and next door to the two oldest residential buildings in London. Inside, low ceilings, wood floorboards with antique wall lights and artwork create a cosy, intimate atmosphere, while marble tables, long dark wood banquettes, antique crockery and cutlery will create the feel of a classic bistro.

• Modern European • Covent Garden

The Ivy restaurant has been a firm fixture on London’s dining and social scene since 1917. The restaurant and private room upstairs are the epitome of real glamour. A shimmering central dining bar in the restaurant draws admiring attention, and the signature harlequin stained-glass windows, oak panelling and striking contemporary art collection ensure the longevity of this very British of dining institutions. Executive Chef Gary Lee creates balanced seasonal menus, featuring Ivy classics, but accounting for today’s tastes, incorporating more Asian dishes, salads and vegetables, and the advent of a “sea and shells” section. Director Fernando Peire leads a strong and experienced team to deliver the unfaltering service for which The Ivy has become well known over the years. The Ivy welcomes customers without reservations at the central dining bar, where the A La Carte and Set menus are both served.

    The food was excellent, but the service left much to be desired. The male waiters were lovely and accommodating, but the female server who attended to us was abrupt and rude. One of our friends is pregnant, and we requested well-cooked food for her. When she brought it over, she commented, "This is the stuff you don’t like," which was not the case—our friend simply cannot eat raw food. I also tried to ask her for recommendations, but she cut me off and told me not to interrupt, even though I wasn’t. While the food and overall ambiance were great, her attitude dampened what could have been an otherwise pleasant experience.

    We had a lovely 3 course pre-theatre meal each and shared each course choice between us so lots of variety in an upbeat lively ambience. The teriyaki poussin with pomegranate was my mother’s favourite and I enjoyed the edamame in salt and lime and the tempura beans with truffle mayo dip as extra starters as well as the Peruvian Corn which was a delicious on the side of one of the dishes and first time experienced. The Espresso martinis were good although a little shy on the glass being filled. Bianca our server was really friendly, and cheerful but professional and helpful. She even arranged for my mother’s dessert to be served in recognition of it being her birthday celebration meal out.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our late night dinner at the Savoy. It’s my third Gordon Ramsay restaurant and it did not disappoint. The service was particularly exceptional and friendly. We enjoyed a variety of appetizers, various steak options for entrées, and of course, the sticky butter toffee pudding dessert. Still one of my top three desserts. Well worth a chance to go if we can!

    The experience to enter and be at this club was fantastic. The atmosphere is just amazing. The music was so good we were often mentioning during our time that the music is just so well matched with the ambience. Food was good, despite other reviews I was afraid it may not be good, but it was done well and to a good standard. All of the drinks we tried were nice and well balanced, comparably to other places we’ve been this was among the better ones. , Service was outstanding, the lady that served us visited our table frequently upon just eye contacting her and was very sweet and professional. I can only recommend this place. We’ll be back.
