The plant based (vegan) tasting menu was incredible. We had the 8 courses and each dish was beautifully presented and exquisite. We saw the meat and fish tasting menu and 3 of the 8 dishes were exactly the same as the plant based which just confirmed that the plant based food was central to the restaurants food, not an afterthought. If you are looking for a vegan fine dining experience this is a must go to.
Superb food and wonderful service, this is a great restaurant for a special treat. It’s very expensive, but it’s worth it. My wife and I are both pescatarian and my wife is also allergic to beetroot, and I have this commented on my Open Table account, but Simpsons take that and go the extra mile presenting a bespoke menu for my wife. That’s very considerate and shows great care and attention to service. We had a tasting menu which took about two-and-a-half hours to eat, and it’s incredible how quickly the time went.
We had the plant based tasting menu. Overall it was nice. The presentation of the food and service was flawless. However, for a couple of the courses the flavours felt a bit tame and underwhelming.
There are so many options available when it comes to plant based ingredients, but if you limit yourself to solely using homegrown U.K. veg, then it can be quite difficult to surface truly inspiring flavours.
The pre-dinner snacks and bread were really nice. Plus I really enjoyed the raspberry cheesecake dessert.
It’s inspiring to see restaurants like Simpsons spearheading plant based cuisine at the Michelin star level. We will be back to try it again for sure.
