“ At long last we've returned to one of our favourite London spots. Although Sally is no longer in the kitchen, the standard of cooking remains at the highest level. We were greeted warmly by her and had a chuckle about Lago Blue. There was something on the menu for everyone. Freshest ingredients available. Sally's lunch menu was a super bargain (but one we resisted in favour of an a la carte selection). Impeccable service. ”
“ Clarke's Restaurant is an absolute gem! From the moment I stepped inside, I was greeted with warm smiles and a cozy, elegant atmosphere that set the tone for a perfect dining experience. The menu is thoughtfully curated, offering a variety of options that cater to every palate. Dessert was the highlight of the meal – their signature Tarte Tatin. It was the perfect balance of tangy and sweet, with a buttery crust that melted in my mouth. The service was impeccable, with the staff being attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about the food they serve. Every detail, from the presentation of the dishes to the ambiance, reflected a commitment to excellence. Clarke's is more than just a restaurant – it’s an experience. I highly recommend it for anyone looking to indulge in exceptional cuisine and outstanding service. I can’t wait to return! ”
“ I recently dined at a fantastic restaurant that truly impressed me! From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was warm and inviting, with tasteful decor that set the perfect mood. The staff were friendly and attentive, making us feel welcomed throughout our meal. We started with a few appetizers, and each dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. For the main course, I ordered the grilled salmon, which was cooked to perfection—flaky and seasoned just right. The sides complemented the dish beautifully. To top it off, we indulged in dessert, and the chocolate lava cake was a standout. Rich and decadent, it was the perfect way to end the meal. Overall, this restaurant offers a wonderful dining experience, and I can’t wait to return for more! Highly recommended! ”
“ This is an exquisite place and a must for us on our London visit. Sally Clarke, the owner chef, visits each table in the most unassuming way possible like bringing bread to the table or snacks; what a privilege that is. Service is most welcoming and accommodating. Wine selection is superb, we had a Burgundy (see pic), and the food is the reason of reasons to must go. Jersey Royals were in season and prepared simply and were amazing. Our table of six tried all kinds of meats and each memorable and fresh. Highly recommend. ”
“ I booked Clarke’s for my mums 70th birthday family dinner. I was honestly blown away by the service we received. We had pre organised champagne on arrival and a personalised birthday cake for dessert. We absolutely loved our dining experience, the food was delicious, the service was fantastic. Sally came over to chat to us and wish my mum a happy birthday. I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better restaurant to celebrate such a special occasion! Thank you so much! ”
“ I hadn’t been to this wonderful restaurant in over 20 years. As a Californian, with a high respect for Alice Waters, a mentor to Sally Clarke, I wanted to revisit with my London-resident children for a celebratory dinner. We were all thrilled with our experience. The waiters were such professionals, friendly and helpful, but discreet. The seasonal menu and daily suggestions made it very hard to choose our courses. I think each of us had menu envy for the others’ choices. We wanted it all! I hope Clarke’s truly enjoys their upcoming 40 year anniversary dinner. The team deserves it. Thank you for creating such a warm environment, allowing me to host my children, and treat them to a really delicious meal, original cocktails and a perfect bottle of Duoro Valley red. Well done! ”
“ I enjoy everything about this place. Always a good experience. Food is simple and seasonal. I wish it was more “spot on” in terms of execution. As someone who enjoys cooking I got rather precise expectations when I go out and spend quite a bit for the food. I really do like the atmosphere. It feels like being in one’s dining room without having to cook and serve the food yourself! ”
