    I remember dining here in the '80's and it has not lost that sense of occasion, people meeting old friends and enjoying the buzzy ambience. If it gets loud, it's probably because their sense of hearing is not what it was. I was attracted by the offal fest on the set menu, and chose the devilled kidneys over the Toulouse sausage - soft and succulent. My wife enjoyed the generous goats cheese and beetroot starter, and the lemon tart for dessert - just the right note of acidity. The gallette de rois was less exciting, but I should have asked for more info before ordering. Poverty plea from set menu diners - a glass of something fizzy to kick off the occasion costing less than £17 would be appreciated

    My husband and I visited Clos Maggiore yesterday for a late celebration of our 22nd anniversary, and it was nothing short of perfection! This was our second time dining at this gem of a restaurant, and once again, it exceeded all our expectations. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was enchanting. The intimate, romantic setting, especially under the stunning conservatory with twinkling lights, made the evening feel so special. The service was impeccable—attentive, warm, and professional without ever being intrusive. And the food? Absolutely divine. Every dish was a work of art, from presentation to taste. Each bite was a testament to the chef’s skill, with bold flavors and perfectly balanced textures. The attention to detail was remarkable, and it truly made the evening unforgettable. Thank you, Clos Maggiore, for making our celebration so memorable. We can’t wait to return again for another special occasion!

    I have been here over 10/15 times in the last 10 years, one of the best Asian restaurants in London. However this time there were some negative notes. First of all, the A/C in the dining room downstairs, it was quite cold (most people were covering up during dinner). Second, I would always order the fried chili squid, however this time we found them a bit chewy as they were cut larger than usual. All other dishes and service was excellent. Overall, a bit disappointed but still had nice evening

    The afternoon tea with champagne was excellent. Perfect service, faultless catering of cakes and scallops really was a lovely birthday treat for my husband. The added bonus of a surprise birthday treat served with a greeting message was very well received. Thank you Savoy x
