My partner surprised me with a dinner at The Beaumont for my birthday and it was absolutely perfect. Everything from the food, to the wine selection and service was outstanding. The staff was really welcoming and friendly, and they’ve turned the dinner into a truly amazing experience. Not to mention the live piano that was a lovely touch.

Languid Art Deco dining room. A brunch menu with something for everyone. Food excellent. Freshly squeezed orange juice reminded me of a Greek island. Latte on point. Bottom line there’s only so much you can do with an eggs Benedict or a full English. But what separates this establishment from other well heeled diners was the service. It was impeccable. We were made to feel special. And our little one even got a Beaumont bear. Those are the small details that will make us come back. We dined at 10.15am on 22nd October. The maitre D and the lady in charge of waiters working the floor were just sublime!!

The food was great with a nice ambience. We ordered the Steak Tartare, Chicken and Prawn Cocktail for starters. For mains we shared the tomahawk steak and another 400g ribeye - they were both phenomenal. Their mixologist had all the drinks on point. Will definitely be back for more when I am in London next!

Set in a lovely boutique 5-stat hotel, the Colony grill offers a varied selection of great food, wine and dessert. The service was exceptional and the decor is the ideal balance of quirky and elegant. Great for a family meal or date if you want somewhere different.

Was taken here by a friend recently, but its a bit expensive for my tastes and it was very difficult to get served if you could only get a seat near reception. Service is very good and helpful when it comes though and there is a good range of cocktails as long as your happy to pay £19, which my friend tells is good value in a London hotel like this, personally Id have preferred a pint of Tring beer, but it or anything similar wasnt on offer.

It is always a real treat to eat at this comfortable Art Déco family yet chic hotel restaurant. The food and service are always great. I personally love to have kedgeree for breakfast. See on the picture how amazing is the one they serve. The atmosphere is much quieter than in the evening. It gets more rowdy then with the very popular bar next door. It really feels like being in a club especially on a Friday evening!

Terrific experience at the Colony Grill. What a stunning hotel and restaurant. Love the Art Deco style, and is what drew us in. Had the most outstanding service I’ve ever had in London. The food was excellent. Everything was top quality. Even the lettuce on the caeser. Fiancé has the rib eye which was delicious and cooked just perfectly. I had the buttermilk fried chicken, and whilst it was a bit too herby for me- it was still delicious. The chicken and the batter, really good quality.

The Colony Grill is a super classy and old school restaurant with an excellent bar serving traditional cocktails prepared by well trained cocktail makers. I was particularly impressed by the Sazerac and the Louisiana. The restaurant is an old world 1930s ambience with leather upholstered semi circular booths. The menu is simple and as I have now eaten here 5 times in last 12 months I can say its simple menu prepared deliciously by the kitchen team. Service is very good and the staff make you feel very welcome. No request is too much. I recommend drinks at the Bar in the evenings even if you have other dinner plans. Its very buzzy. There is a pianist from 7pm! All in all one of the best dinning experiences in Mayfair

Disappointing visit last weekend unfortunately. Usually a high standard restaurant that we have dined at a few times, and it was one of our favourite London restaurants. However last weekend, the service ruined the meal, and its just not acceptable, especially from such a high end place. We went to a chain restaurant for lunch the day after and received excellent 5* service there, but this could not be done in the Colony Grill sadly. Common restaurant etiquette was lost on our visit, our water was never refilled, but we watched other tables recieve this service, we werent asked if we wanted more drinks, we werent asked how the food was during or after the meal, and the burger my partner had was a bit dry, but we were given no opportunity to tell anyone this. It was really frustrating and the waitress was just so miserable to be honest, not the usual standard of this place at all. When I asked to have the service removed from the bill, as there wasnt any service given, nobody even came over at this point to ask if there was a reason for this or to see if everything was ok, as they usually do in restaurants, they really just were not bothered. A really big let down, and it could have been so easily great to be honest, a shame. 2 stars for the steak and the excellent maitre d as ever.

Im a huge fan of the Colony Grill room, but Im a huge fan of Corbin and King restaurants generally so its no surprise. As with all their restaurants service at the Colony is impeccable.The restaurant is inside the The Beaumont Hotel. The Beaumont Hotel is an Art Deco garage that has been beautifully converted into a hotel.The restaurant is accessed through the bar which is a lovely place for a drink. As you may have anticipated, the bar and room are heavily Art Deco influenced, but theyre not kitsch. Think exclusive New York club atmosphere, wood panelled, understated but oozing confidence and money. Ive never been to a New York private club, but I have been to the Ralph Lauren shop on Bond Street which pulls off the same thing - Polo club chic.Enough about the room onto the food. The food is not experimental, not cutting edge. Its clubland favourites (theres a theme hereCeasar salad, pate, steak tartare (prepared before your eyes with more theatre than Shaftesbury Avenuefollowed by huge steaks on the bone, right the way to burgers.The clientele are well heeled tourists, and well heeled locals looking for comfort and solace. They both find both in the Colony Grill Room, just 50 metres from the shopping hell of Oxford Street.

Exceptional service and dining service. We thoroughly enjoyed our lunch meal at the Colony. Service was friendly, attentive but not intrusive. The decor was art deco, comfortable and quiet. The quality of the ingredients was high. Im normally not a huge fan of duck but Ive heard it was good hear and Im glad to say I wasnt disappointed. Would definitely come back.

Usually love this place, although last night the food was a little uncharacteristically disappointing.In general, the decor is classy and cosy, the service is of a very high standard, and the food is great too. The DIY ice cream sundaes make it worth a visit almost alone.Not the cheapest of places, but its the bar restaurant of a Mayfair hotel, so not surprising.Well recommended.Update: since leaving this review, management contacted me, and made every attempt to understand and offer solutions. Service really is of the greatest standard, and will keep me going back.

We had an excellent time at The Colony Grill! The staff was so friendly and helpful, including greeting us out front and delivering us to our cab afterwards. Our meals (lentil ragout and calf liver with sweet potato frieswere both very very good. The whisky sour was one of the best weve had. But the dessert...the dessert was the highlight of the meal! We had the Knickerbocker Glory and glorious it was!! We left full and very satisfied, but only after our waiter came running after us to return my husbands jacket 😅 Wish we had a place like this back home (but then wed just be really fat!).

I had never felt as embarrassed as I was made to feel on Friday, we walked to The Beaumont from The Mayfair where we staying for the lovely ambience which I had read about and the meal which was also quite nice. We had a salad, steak, sweet potatoe fries and stewed corn which was beautifully done.The bar was recently renovated and has a lovely relaxed feel to it. We were given a talk about the old and the new from the Maitred which was also nice.My partner asked for a business card as he intended to return with some business partners, this will not be the case.As we walked out, the Maitred runs after us and accused us of leaving without paying the bill. Im not one to use the race card and have never experienced this, but my partner pointed out that the same treatment would not have been given to a caucasian couple without confirming from the waiter who served us.Never, have I been so embarrassed and Im still reeling from it 3 days on.We will not be returning to The Colony, the meal was good but I have had better in London with better service and treated with respect.This is has been quite an embarrassing ordeal, hence the review

Average steak (we had the flat iron steak), poor prawn cocktail (it isn’t a cocktail in spite of the name). Friendly staff but we had to order our food twice to two different waitresses.

Holy sh*t the steak was £50 (14oz rib eyebut it was the best steak Ive ever had in my life.Great location as well and the decor is wonderful. The staff are all friendly and it doesnt feel stuffy and stiff like some places around here can.

I really enjoy visiting the colony grill. The menu is American/comfort/bistro food and the cottage pie a favourite. The restaurant is beautifully designed, as is the adjoining bar. Staff are very attentive and cocktails excellent.If you can manage it - steak tartar - cottage pie - knickerbocker glory are all amazing.Love going here. A real favourite!

The restaurant was quiet and softly lit, which would perfect for a date. The service impeccable and I had what was possibly the best steak tartare of my life, which was prepared right in front of me. To follow I had a juicy and tender veal chop with some delicious carrots as a side, and of course crème brûlée as dessert. It is not cheap, but for the quality you are getting, I would say it is reasonably priced.Also do not be discouraged by the posh setting, the staff are nice and will never make you feel out of place.

Went for my husbands birthday. The positives: venue is beautiful and real old world charm, steaks were nice quality and cooked right, cocktails were good. Negatives: the worst pastrami sandwich ever- 2 thin slices of meat, too much cheese that wasnt Swiss, no thousand island dressing and no Jewish rye bread. Could have gone to M&S for a better one and at nearly £20 I felt completely ripped off! This place has clearly never been to a real grill room in the US and tasted all the staples they have simply made them up. The steaks were served on cold plates so they got cold very fast. The ceasar salad was bland and hardly any anchovy flavour. The head waitress was in such a mood and rude to us when it was my husbands birthday. And the wine & water were only topped up once by the waiters. I can see this place is going down hill as it was not full and bad service and even worse food. Would definitely never go there again I feel cheated for the price we paid.

This is not a cheap restaurant so the rating reflects against expected high standards.The service is good but could me more attentive. There were a few times we wanted service and could not attract attention.We were three people and they placed us in a booth. These are only comfortable for 2 people in my opinion and a bit of a squeeze for 3. One of the open tables would have been appropriate.The restaurant was busy and the acoustics meant that it was difficult to hear others at the table without raising voices. A catch 22 situation as everybody else had similar issues.My son loves it here and his swordfish was perfect and he loved it.My wife had the trout and she said it was a fine cooked piece of fish and she enjoyed it.But this is my review and my food was not great.I always choose badly and after disappoinment in the past ( deep fried chicken that had chillie in the batter; steak tartare that again was too spicy; prawns with - you guessed chillie again etx etc)This time I played safe and went for the new York hotdog. Over caramelized onions, sauerkraut and a fairly restless jot dog made for an undesirable experience.My son loves it here so we will be back.Maybe Ill try the steak next time!!!

One of my favourite breakfast spots in London. The food is amazing and set in a nice peaceful 1930s dinner. Perfect for a quiet business meeting over breakfast or a little oasis of peace before you hit the ground running.

Awesome restaurant, nailed the desserts.I came here to celebrate my girlfriends promotion. Literally on a whim as I saw it in an email and thought it looked cool. I was slightly wary initially that it was just another hotel restaurant, I was glad to find that it isnt.The staff were really friendly, happy to explain the menu and werent in any way obnoxious (which I do find in some swankier establishments...). The food was also awesome, and old worldy / nostalgic. How often do you see gammon and pineapple on a menu!?The food was excellent. The mock turtle soup was delicious (and I managed to not get any on my white shirt which I think I might put on my CV...). My girlfriend was elated to see she could have mac and cheese for a starter! The mains were also excellent. The fried chicken was delicious (and hugeand my lamb was perfect. I cant cook lamb to save my life so this was a treat.The ultimate win however was the dessert. The list looked good, so we were excited. I was veering towards a knickerbocker glory. Until they brought out a pad and pencil to CREATE YOUR OWN SUNDAE! SWEET JESUS! I dont think Ive ever been so happy. You get to choose different flavours of ice-cream, toppings and sauce, all for a very reasonable £8.50 or so. Honestly. It was amazing.I would definitely recommend this place if youre after a decent meal / celebrating. Its not cheap though. Once drinks and service etc was in I was touching £200 for the two of us.
