Amazing place in London. I love the food. can’t wait to come back here again. Congratulations to the staff.
The set menu at Marcus is top notch, you get 5 courses from 5 different chefs with each and every one was a delight! Cannot recommend more highly
When I found out we had reservations at Marcus Wareing’s eponymous restaurant at The Berkeley, I was rather tickled. My memories of the last time I’d been to the hotel were quite a fun one. A girlfriend and I went to have one of the tasting menus at the restaurant (it was still called Marcus Wareing then) and we ended up staying at the Blue Bar until quite late, making a few new friends as the night turned to dusk.
Exquisite dining experience at the heart of London's luxury district. The moment I stepped in into the dining room, the posh and cozy vibe started to creep in. With the dimly lit lighting, it adds the romantic feeling into our table. The service was friendly and accommodating. We opted for 8 course tasting menu in January 2017. Our favorite was the pumpkin agnolotti, as the pumpkin was tasty in a couple of different ways. The hazelnuts chocolate dessert was a punch of flavor at the end. Fantastic dinner.
Loved the starters and main, all beautifully cooked with great flavours. Dessert was ok but not as good as the starter and main. Service was attentive.
‘Shall we do something for our birthdays together this year’ came that What’s App message from Emma, blogger at Adventures of A London Kiwi. ‘Yes!’ was my reply and within about twenty minutes a plan was formed and a hashtag was coined #KiwiSpoonBirthday…. Formal invites were issued to our blogger besties and then all there was to do was to look forward to the big day. When it finally arrived everyone congregated at my flat for drinks before heading out to our chosen venue…
This was definitely one of the best restaurants I have been to in London. The food was faultless, every bite was amazing. The pigeon tartar was the shock for me but delicious. The service was also great. Marcus I love you, thank you for such a treat!
The very first Michelin Starred restaurant I went to was the two star Marcus Wareing at the Berkeley in Central London. It was also my first trip to Europe, and to say that I was excited was an understatement. At the time, London was the epicentre of global cuisine and Marcus Wareing was in the top 100 restaurants in the world. It was a lock - I was going to have the best meal of my life!
The last time I wrote about Marcus Wareing’s flagship restaurant it was just after he had split from Gordon Ramsay Holdings and the restaurant was renamed from Petrus to Marcus Wareing at the Berkeley. Other than the name change, everything pretty much remained the same – the dining room keeping the exact same decor all the way to the bon-bon trolley at the end of the meal. While I have had a fair few meals here in the past, I have always felt that the cooking here too complicated for my liking.

As a wheelchair user I have to start with the access to both the Berkeley and the restaurant. The staff are incredibly helpful and make things easier but there are stairs everywhere, and not just 2 or 3 stairs, loads of them: into the hotel, up to the restaurant, up to the toilet which I couldn't fit into. Not really up to par for a top London hotel in terms of access.
The feeling in Marcus lets you know he studied under Gordon Ramsay. It's slightly informal but incredibly classy. Relaxed and upmarket. Dark wood with slightly bonkers artwork which is reflected from the walls onto the menus.
The staff were impeccable. Closer to 3* star staff. Marcus wasn't cooking, he was filming master chef but because it was my birthday the staff managed to find me a pre signed menu to take home.
I have to agree somewhat with one of the reviewers on here in that 2* restaurants seem to sit in a kind of no mans land between the ambitious single star and almost untouchable 3* restaurants, however I would say Marcus is leading the pack with only minimal things that normally wouldn't be called flaws, but are the things that are keeping him from attaining the third star. I do think he will get there eventually.
I generally find tasting menus at 2 and 3 star places to be more a good experience than an enjoyable meal if that makes sense.... I certainly enjoy an amazing food experience though.
The next biggie , in comparison, was actually desert. The salted caramel ice cream was so salty it was inedible again. We actually asked for some normal ice cream or cream to go with the rich chocolate but the kitchen didn't have any and so had to go to the hotel kitchen to find some. Another shout out to the staff and their service for making it happen.
The gluten free and normal bread was delicious and home made which you would expect... It's always a let down at places like the savoy when they come out with toasted rice bread from the supermarket.
The lemon meringue was delicious and tart enough! Not too sweet. They also gave me a birthday desert which was extremely kind and chocolate mousse deliciousness. We were sent home with custard creams in a box.
It is an expensive night out but the food is very good and a very enjoyable experience that I would definitely recommend. The staff are outstanding.
The meringue pie cocktail blew my mind. It takes like you are eating the pie and surprised me every mouthful.
The first anomalies in the food came with the palate cleanser. Feta cheese with yuzu granita and a feta mousse on a cracker. The yuzu and liquid nitrogen actually went very well but here's where he misses the third star... Slightly too much cheese as a ratio and too large lumps, which sadly made it not work. The cheese crisp on the side was bizarre. Completely inedible both in consistency and taste. I truly have no idea how that made it onto the menu or out of the kitchen. Very weird indeed. We both agreed on that.
Love the place very much! Very well execution on every dishes in the grand courses with wine and drinks pairing, a must to visit before they are closed down on Dec 26, 2023 and will start a new concept in Feb-2024!... can't wait to see the next new execution from this chef team,...
I had dinner there and it was a wonderful experience. The waiters and waitresses made me feel pampered. The bread and the starter (both are free) was very nice. The first and second course was heart-wrenchingly delicious. This is arguably the best meal I had in Europe. It was my birthday, and they gave a free mini ice cream cake and some desserts. The service is superbly amazing.
Amazing food! It was just the perfect evening to celebrate my birthday. What a lovely surprise planned by my boyfriend! We had the seven course tasting menu and also had the wine pairing with it. All the wine complimented the dishes nicely! Staff were nice and made me feel so special. We even went and met Craig (the head chef) — I had a fan girl moment as we were thinking back to all the episodes we had seen him in before he won the season!

I had the lunch menu here with some friends this afternoon.
As far as fine dining lunches go, this was great The food was good and the presentation was good. The service was also good, and the staff were extremely attentive to topping up the water! The atmosphere here is great, I really liked it... great decor, great finish, great style, and great art.
I absolutely LOVED the bread and the custard desert.
It's difficult for me to give five stars because I wasn't so keen on some of the flavours in the main dish. I think I need to try the taster menu and then I can re-write this.
I had the perfect service of an incredibly friendly server. The food was also very delicious, and I will definitely visit again.
We had a great lunch at Marcus. Originally intended to go for the lunch menu but was eventually tempted by some of the a la carte choices so we went for a mixture. The food was outstanding throughout but I must say the stand out dishes for me were both from the a la carte menu( quail and the monk fish), so was very glad we tried them. The sommelier recommended a great Bordeaux was also exactly to our taste. Service friendly and comfortable. Also happy to see Marcus himself popping in and out of the kitchen and working with the restaurant staff, added to the whole experience.
All in all, highly recommended!
Excellent business lunch with partners. We were made very welcome throughout. Food was excellent. Hard to fault the setting for a business lunch.
I normally only leave negative reviews. However I really enjoyed lunch here. The service was faultless, the food beautifully presented and the atmosphere ideal. I’m a sucker for white table cloths so extra points for that. Simple elegant class all the way. Hearing the chefs cheer in the kitchen was also great! I’m thinking this deserves another ⭐️!
