It was incredibly disappointing. Our group of four had made a reservation in advance for the Beef Wellington, expecting a high standard of quality, especially since this is Gordon Ramsay’s signature dish. However, when the dish was served, we were dismayed to find that the Beef Wellington had already been sliced into pieces. As it was meant to be shared, the presentation was far from ideal.
The puff pastry was unexpectedly wet, with the mushrooms dislodged from their place, causing them to spill onto the plate when we attempted to serve ourselves. The texture of the pastry was inconsistent, with some parts crispy while others were soggy. This lack of uniformity was quite disappointing, and the overall experience fell short of our expectations.
To accompany our meal, we ordered the mashed cream potatoes, which unfortunately turned out to be overly salty, further detracting from our dining experience.
While the initial service—from reception to our table—was commendable, things began to falter as we progressed through the meal. At one point, a server approached us to inquire if we had finished eating, to which we replied that we were still enjoying our dishes. Just 30 sec later, another waiter came by, asking to clear our plates. This left us feeling rushed, as if the staff were eager for us to leave. It seemed there was a lack of communication among the team.
In total, our bill came to GBP$332, but the value for money was exceedingly low. We left the restaurant feeling very disappointed.
