Afternoon Tea At The Capital Hotel

Refurbished a year ago, it is a beautiful setting. Bold green pattern on the wall, with green and turquoise, ochre and dark stained wood. Very stilish indeed. The food is delicious. Starter of tuna tartare and tempura prawn. Beautiful combination of flavours and textures and very well presented. Main of monkfish. Cooked to perfection! Harissa on the side it was very hot. The salad, light and perfectly seasoned. Creme brulee, with a thicker texture but utterly delicious, a fitting end to a wonderful meal. In brief, classy and elegant with delicious food and superb service. Not to mention a touch of magic with the very accomplished young lady playing the harp in the evening, just delightful. Very highly recommended!

What started out as a glass of wine catching up with a friend eventually turned into an amazing early dinner. The menu offers enough variety for everyone’s palate. I had the poached pear salad and the chicken. And of course doughnuts for dessert, by which time I was so full I could not finish! All beautifully presented and full of flavours. And what about those truffle fries?? A must visit special spot ever so slightly off the Knightsbridge beaten track. High recommend even if it’s just for a glass of wine or a cocktail

Booked a reservation here for afternoon tea because it was walking distance from Harrods. I’m happy I did! The staff were great! I was able to leave my backpack with the concierge so I didn’t have to worry about it while I dine. Some of the staff members spoke Spanish which was a nice touch of home for me. Our server was informative about the different types of teas and which experience would be best for first-timers. The atmosphere was quite nice, the interior design has a playful charm to it with tall windows which allow natural light into the space during the day. The tea, sandwiches, desserts, and scones were all delicious! Definitely will be back when I visit London again!

Came here on a Friday night- it was quite quiet due to Easter. The restaurant is inside a hotel and the decor is amazing, and so was the ambience. Service was also impeccable and I have no bad words about it. We got the octopus to start, which was good- hardly any octopus inside but it was still tasty. We then got the lamb chops for main, which was good but lacked seasoning and had too much fat on it. We got the softshell crab burger which was magnificent, I loved the crunch and the depth of flavour. The mac and cheese was also really good, not too cheesy and well seasoned although I am a fan of a bit more spice. The fries were nice and crunchy, the peppercorn sauce wasn’t the greatest. I think 4 stars is fair but because we had a discount, 5 stars is fair. We had 30% off and our meal totalled £70. They informed us everything was halal except the beef.
