Ristoranti a Mentmore

As usual the staff were efficient, helpful and friendly. It was a very busy Christmas Eve. The food was OK, but not as very good as usual.

Six course tasting menu plus amuse bouche. All courses were excellent, packed with flavour. The Carrots in a Thai broth were superb and packed a punch. I had the scallops for the third course which were excellent but my wife had the Mushrooms as an option they were even better. After the venison course 5 was a very clever palate cleanser (called a Snowball but was a yuzu granita with coconut and eggnog) before the final dessert. Every course has interesting and different flavours. Thomas, Howie and the rest of the staff are as good as they get. Friendly, helpful and efficient. A place for special occasions and a treat. My favorite restaurant.

Overall an excellent evening , although drinks were very expensive.

The service was excellent. The pub was a little chilly. Had a toasted sandwich which I felt had been deep fried rather than toasted and was a little greasy. The portion size was generous.
