Best French Restaurants in South Kensington

An unusually impressive restaurant. As a double Michelin you know the food will be exceptional, and it is - amazing work M. Bosi. But it’s the entire team and service level (professional, friendly, knowledgeable and unpretentious) that makes this venue a stand out. Quirky deco surroundings, great and diverse wine cellar and cute nods to Michelin throughout. A wonderful, memorable and delicious evening. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience! We Would highly recommend this restaurant. The staff was very friendly and the food was great!

My guests and I thoroughly enjoyed our meal at Margaux. The menu was diverse enough to cater to light eaters as well as those who wanted heartier fare. The drinks menu also called for Mon alcoholic selections, a good selection of wine and cider, so everyone was accommodated. The service was spot on, there when you needed them but not overly attentive to the point of interrupting conversation. The ambience was buzzy but quiet enough to speak and be heard. We will return!

On arrival, a very stylish lady called Monica led us to our table and with great warmth said I understand it is someone’s birthday and can I pour you a glass of champagne. That was it - instantly myself and my guest felt welcome, special and very happy to be there! I had stated in my booking it was for a birthday but I was still highly impressed with that immediate attention to detail. It set the tone brilliantly and it really made my day. Our original waitress was excellent too - very on the ball though unfortunately I did not get her name. We had a fabulous lunch, great food and a lively, fun atmosphere. The staff are generally very good here but a special thanks to Monica who is excellent at her job. I will most definitely be back and soon.

Wonderful experience at Pavyllon in London. Myself, my wife, and our 10 year old son. We had the festive set menu which was reasonably priced, and every course was delicious. We especially liked the bread service, little individual loaves of a very yummy bread. Our son ordered from the children's' menu and enjoyed a soup, followed by pasta. My singular point of constructive feedback is that we were not offered anything other than water or wine. When the wine list was presented, I commented that we usually preferred beer, but there was no further offer of any other beverages. I accepted this as a sign that we could enjoy a "dry" holiday lunch, and we did! Thanks to the staff, and especially Marco, for recognizing our 19th wedding anniversary with a very enjoyable chocolate mousse cake and a special message.
