   Fabulous dinner. The menu remains a "surprise" until serving which is such a treat. For those of you who like to have control in every aspect of your life: just let go and trust the Team. Every plate was balanced, providing perfect layers of subtly in the mouth. There were so many components to each dish...we can't imagine how much time is put into creating the perfect bite! Beautiful presentation as well. The wine pairings and descriptions by the sommeliers were interesting, introducing us to several vintages that were previously unknown to us. And the servers were so professional and friendly. It felt like they had prepared the dinner in their homes and were treating us to a great meal. Such a breath of fresh air! Thank you for a lovely evening!

   What a fantastic evening. The food was absolutely delicious. Everything was beautifully prepared, and the presentation was fun, fresh, and lovely. We also got the wine and cocktail pairing. The drinks were so interesting, and paired perfectly with the food. More importantly, the sommelier explained each wine and cocktail to us, carefully explaining the flavors, why that drink was chosen, and the many tones of the drinks. Was very fun and enlightening. All of the staff (and there were many taking care of us!) were just incredible. Knowledgeable, fun, friendly, personable staff. We even got to tour the kitchen and take pictures with the chef and team. Just a fantastic FIVE hour experience. Thankyou.

   The service at this restaurant was the best I’ve experienced at any fine dining establishment. Friendly, very good at making us feel at ease. The food was also phenomenal and the team were brilliant at dealing with our allergies/preferences. Well worth the hype.

   I asked a table far from door. The answer was ok. I received the closest table to door. The music was very noisy. Cold inside. The food like from fast food. It was too late to go to KFC.

   It was my 60th birthday so we thought we’d celebrate in style at Restaurant Story. It started really well. We were warmly welcomed, and the food was lovely. Unfortunately our overall experience was let down by the very strange situation with the wine. Despite the sommelier talking to us as soon as we sat down, he did not explain the wine pairings to us, and then he disappeared and when the first course arrived he had still not taken our wine order. The other wait staff were great. They apologised and got it sorted out, but it was all very strange, and not what you expect from a Michelin starred restaurant.

   Simply one of the best dining experiences I have ever had. The food is incredible, the wine pairing is pure chemistry in action and the service is absolutely first class. We will be back.

   Overall excellent! Great menu and great service! Pricey ! On par with 3 Michelin stars …! Have to improve the wine selections….. by the glass could be better perhaps ! Also we were running late last night because of the London traffic and no one picks the phone out of hours which is quite disappointing for a two Michelin star place !

    Still a good restaurant but feels like it’s lost its sense of wonder. Dined here before the refurbishment and it was a wonderful experience with real personality. The second time the sense of identity and wonder was gone. The food is still very good but the experience feels more soulless and standardised than before. With the exception of 1-2 “Story Touches” this could have been any other 2 star restaurant.
