Reviewing after my fourth visit to the Grand on Portobello. Came here first for brunch and we were blown away by the creme brûlée French toast and avocado toast with vegan ricotta. Was so impressed I also celebrated my 21st birthday here with my family and ordered: sourdough, crispy chicken with aioli, burgers and sea bass. This was back in February and we are all still raving about it.
But today was the single best restaurant experience I’ve ever had. Chef Alessia pulled out all the stops with crispy chicken, roasted cauliflower, basque cheesecake and homemade vegan sorbet. With an open plan kitchen it is great to meet the chef and as she explained the dish to us it was clear how much she cared about the food, which is reflected in every dish. Giulia was attentive and recommended a delicious primitivo (£7) while other support staff were really friendly/smiling and looked like they were enjoying themselves too. We were very generously given some limoncello on the house and having not eaten out for a month due to exams - came out beaming and doing the happy food dance. Biggest thank you to the team on 20th May for a night of amazing food, hospitality and hugs that was a much needed treat.
Overall: a delicious meal at any time of the day, perfect for a date, occasion or family meal with consistently great hospitality. If you are in Notting Hill this is THE place to go.
We had dinner here the night before and it was so good we had breakfast the next day too! Again, it didn’t disappoint! Two vegetarian dishes we had - aubergines and cauliflower were full of flavour, burger and rump steak cooked to perfection. No space for desert sadly. Pancakes and French toast this morning were sensational. We’ll be definitely back.
Had excellent brunch here! Twist on the sauce as they have nduja in it. That only makes it better and tastier.
Highly recommended.
Service also loo lovely
This place had been on my list to visit for some time. The opportunity arose when a friend visiting from out of town was staying in the area.
We arrived for a late lunch and The Grand did not disappoint. The menu was fresh and exciting and each of the several dishes that we ordered were absolutely delicious. Staff were friendly and the atmosphere was relaxed. A perfect Sunday stop off
Great experience. We tried several of the dishes on the menu and they were all impressive. I am not a fan of oysters but my partner is and she loved them. The chef even pulled out olive oil from Lake Garda after hearing it is my favorite region in Italy and she drizzled it on one of the dishes as a finishing touch. We especially loved the crispy chicken that is always golden and cooked to perfection.
Really small establishment, and awkward circle tables but the food was amazing. We ordered the pancakes and they definitely didn’t disappoint. Service was really quick and the food was definitely faultless. Would definitely recommend
Nothing is better than the Grand! That chef and her spices are out of this world. We were there for dinner, brunch and afternoon drinks. Thank u Alessia for ur incredible food and Vinny for taking such good care of us. Why go anywhere else when food and drinks are outstanding! Best spicy margaritas too!
Lovely food. Great staff. Elegant atmosphere. Had a fantastic lunch here on a busy Portobello Saturday. Will come again!
Incredibly delicious food. Best lunch my mom and I had on her visit. The chicken was so divine that my mum asked about the spices used and the chef herself gave us a tub with the mixture. 10/10.
