Andrew Edmunds

This restaurant ticks every box for me.  The venue is quaint, costy and comfortable.  The staff are incredible and the food never disappoints.  Very sad that the owner did earlier this year but I hope this restaurant continues his legacy.

Original French food and a rustic cozy atmosphere 

I have been going to Andrew Edmunds for years and will continue to do so. The food is reliably good (and the Dover sole outstanding) as is the wine list and the staff are friendly and knowledgeable. On top of all this the bill never comes as an unpleasant shock; it is good value for what you get which is rare these days when overpriced mediocrity seems to increasingly be the norm. 

I was really looking forward to my return to Andrew Edmunds after a hiatus of about five years since my last visit.  This restaurant still hits the high notes for service and atmosphere and a good wine list but the dining experience was badly let down by the undercooked Dover sole.  The starters of pig's head and ox tongue were both unusual but absolutely delicious; in fact, the pig's head fritters were the real highlight of the evening.  Thankfully the restaurant deducted the cost of the sole from our bill but it did somewhat spoil my partner's dining experience when she was unable to eat very much of the fish, which having been so undercooked was rubbery, gelatinous, bloody around the gills and sticking to the bones.  I still plan to return to this restaurant but we will just be a bit more circumspect about our menu choices next time around.

Absolutely appalling customer service. We recently tried to book a table for our wedding anniversary, using a voucher. We were told it was no longer valid even though there was no date on the voucher. The voucher was for a gift from my husband but it was pre-pandemic, of course we had no idea it expired because there were no emails about it! A restaurant of that reputation and status should be able to be more flexible and accomodate requests, at least in part, especially in the circumstances. Instead, we received a very arrogant response to say that there was plenty of time exchange the voucher. It was truly appalling given the amount of money on the voucher. They made no suggestions or tried to help, and expected us to simply book and pay again. It may be an "iconic" restaurant, but it is one that takes advantage of people and steals money from customers. Absolutely disgusting!

Utterly brilliant in every way. Food. Wine. Service. History. Building. Atmosphere. 

Can't go wrong.
