Emilia

We hosted 15 clients at Bonahms and Emilia provided the wait staff and food. What they delivered was exceptional on all fronts, 3 courses of delicious perfection. I met the head chef a few days before and we finalised the menu choices, we had gluten free, vegan, dairy free and vegetarian guests and nothing was too much trouble. The gluten and dairy free desserts were AMAZING.

Everything was delicious but particular highlights included the subtle and perfectly balanced celeriac risotto with pear and hazelnut, the bold yet refined white truffle tagliatelle, both mopped up by the expertly made bread that these culinary wizards whip up in-house daily. I was blown away and I’d go as far as saying this is now the best Italian restaurant in Mayfair. 10/10.

We arrived for an early dinner and initially put off by the clinical feel of an empty restaurant, but that feeling instantly disappeared as the amuse-bouche started arriving on the table. The restaurant also quickly filled up as the evening progressed. The food was phenomenal. Mackerel and burrata starters a perfect way to start the meal, moving onto tuna carpaccio and trotter first course then the richest most divine parpadelle I have had for a while. The wine selection was excellent, with the most expensive only £70 per bottle, plenty of choice at the reasonable end. We were too full for dessert but the petit four with the bill were addictively good. Highly recommend.
