Another excellent lunch at Cornus. I was tempted by the excellent value set lunch menu at £55 for 3 courses but succumbed to the full 7 course tasting menu at £165, which included of course the usual selection of canapés, delicious sourdough bread and focaccia, and petit fours. Top quality ingredients, highly skilled cooking and beautiful presentation. Highlights included red mullet with a salsa verde; cod with girolles, squid and crispy potatoes; roast pigeon with a chestnut purée. Service was excellent throughout from the whole team, with particular thanks to the incomparable sommelier Melania and joint owner David. The wine list is extensive and keenly priced by London standards but BYO is extremely popular and with corkage at lunch of £20 an absolute bargain. The total bill for this solo diner was £235, including a glass of champagne, corkage and service charge. I think that is tremendous value for money. Overall at least 17/20 and one of the best restaurants in London for classic cooking with lots of technique and top quality ingredients. The only problem is that now I’m torn between long-established sister restaurant Medlar and newcomer Cornus for a neighbourhood lunch. Ah well, life is tough.

Fantastic service and food - once you enter you feel like you’re being treated like royalty but friendly manner. Comfortable decor and welcome aesthetics. Wonderful location for celebration or casual dinner if that is your thing. Delicious food with lots of care and attention to detail.

This was my third visit to Cornus and it won’t be my last! The 2 amuse bouche they serve first were outstanding. I then had the Orkney Scallops followed by the Chef’s special langoustine dish, both of which were superb. To finish I had the warm rice pudding, again outstanding. My 3 guests were equally impressed. Great wine list and experienced sommeliers too!

I am lucky to be able to eat at so many great London restaurants. I do not believe there is anywhere better than Coronus. A beautiful room flooded with natural light at lunch and so atmospheric in the evening. Tables are well spaced. Service is exemplary and everything is top notch. The food, from a kitchen that is on top of the game is faultless. This is undoubtedly a restaurant that will earn at least a one star from Michelin. My advice go now before the crowds start packing the place!
