📖

Full description

Occupying a hushed, elegant room inside The Dorchester, this is Alain Ducasse's London flagship and one of the city's most decorated tables, holding three Michelin stars for refined French cooking. Reviewers consistently note that the standard holds even for humble ingredients, with one calling out how good the simple vegetable courses taste alongside the showpiece dishes.

At 4.3 from over 600 reviews, it's a must for serious food travellers rather than a casual outing, and the price and formality point toward marking an occasion. Lunch and dinner are both available, giving slightly more flexibility than dinner-only rivals nearby.

Reviews

Excellent food and service. 3 Michelin star isn't overrated (haven't tried 1-2 star though). Even "simple" food like some veggie still tastes great (although pretty sure it wasn't simple to made). Timing, atmosphere, etc. were great. We spent almost 5 hours for the 7 course menu as if it had been a hour.
