The Petersham - Italian Organic Restaurant In Covent Garden London Reviews from The Last Year
Goodish food but eye-wateringly expensive.
This is a pretty restaurant with mixed quality food and extremely expensive. Service was good. Our starters of pickled beetroot and liver parfait were both excellent. Both main course pasta dishes were obviously made from fresh pasta but unfortunately about 30 seconds over-cooked and so had no bite to them. We had one side dish of broccoli which was fine. We had 3 glasses (between two of us) of one of the cheaper red wines at £20 a glass. No pudding or coffee as we were heading for the ballet. The whole experience cost us just over £190 and we came out thinking how did we do that? Not again I am afraid.
A joyous evening with friends
I went with a couple of colleagues after work and we had a lovely time. The Restaurant has a beautiful set-up and the ambience with lovely with unique paintings and artwork and dramatic floral displays. The food was amazing, I particularly enjoyed the Chicken Liver Parfait, and my colleague loved the Tiramisu! Service was great and the staff were attentive ensuring we had everything we needed or wanted throughout the meal. It is a great little find off the hustle and bustle of Covent Garden Plaza and look forward to returning in the summer to enjoy a meal in the courtyard area.
Expectations dashed by disappointing food and service
Beautiful setting and ambience. I'm afraid to say, the positives rest there. I was recommended The Petersham and booked for my partners birthday. I cannot describe how disappointed we were - the food was mediocre (at best) and was further let down by the service. We opted for the foraged mushrooms as a starter - we were presented with a lot of "nothing" in batter placed in a bowl with paper underneath. Tasteless other than grease and oil. How on earth did this ever pass the test when the menu was devised? Much of the starter was left and we were hoping the main would redeem. Ox cheek - very fatty and flavours were bland. We swiftly declined the offer of desert. The service was poor and the managers response to our disappointment was equally bad. Yes, 10% was knocked off the final bill but nothing could make up for an awful start to my partner's birthday celebrations. Thankfully we found much better restaurants for the remaining stay - Clos Maggiore and Fallow - both of which delivered 200% more than The Petersham. £200 was an awful lot of money to be left so disappointed. Awarded more than 1 star given the lovely setting. Serious attention needs to be given to what is happening at The Petersham - this is represented not only by this review but other recent reviews and other disappointed customers during our visit. Such a shame.
Pushy service for ok food
Food was ok, good in general, not worth the price though. The vegeterian options were scarse, and the wine list was again good but overpriced, I know many of the wines and they do not remotely cost that much not even including import and surcharge, there was nothing under £50 and some of them cost 5£ in Italy! The service was one of the worst ever experienced I had to apologize with the friends we had with us . The lady who served us was trying to push the most expensive dishes on us and minimize the size of plates to make us get more. When explaining the menu she gave an explanation of the special and then literally said “I can’t explain the whole thing” adding a bla bla bla here and there when the explanation was too long. When asked about beer or vegetarian dishes again she downplayed them suggesting we would go for something else. She took the wrong order and one of the plate that arrived was uncorrected. When sustituted after few minutes she insisted we tried The wrong one because it was good and “it’s a shame for it to go to waste”. Nicely the restaurant discounted the bill due to the mistake. Also £16 for the bread at the table is a big no.
The Sweetest Restaurant in Covent Garden
Thankyou Giuseppe & Nadia for excellent service! You made us feel like we were the only patrons in the restaurant. The food was absolutely Devine. Portions were smaller BUT were very filling and well worth the money! The atmosphere was delight. Fresh flowers everywhere. Very lucky to have dined twice with you this week! My only complaint.,,, I would love a little shop like the Petersham in Richmond to give you more of my $$$. Thankyou again for a lovely lunch & wonderful visit. Very fortunate to have Giuseppe & Nadia … best service I have had in London! xo
Nice food, poor service
Very happy with the food and wine pairing. The interior is beautiful. However, the chairs are not comfortable and the venue is a bit noisy (acoustic). More disappointing, the service was a let down. The cocktails we had ordered for pre drinks arrived together with the first course (with wine). Then there was a long wait for the second course, with wine pairing being poured after the food had arrived. One member of the staff in particular was less than charming, more concerned with himself rather than paying attention to the guests or being a good colleague. Will not go again and not recommend.
So enjoyable!
Been there with my mom for desserts and had a delightful experience at this charming italian spot in Covent Garden. From the warm welcome by Ioana at the door to Giuseppe's engaging presentation of the desserts, the experience was elevated. Valentin, the sommelier, shared insightful details about the wine while Valentina ensured we were well looked after throughout. Their exceptional service added a personal touch making our visit truly memorable. Our experience was so enjoyable that we're already planning our next return. Thank you very very much!
New Years meal cost not matched with quality
The service was lacking. The meal was a new years event and should have lasted till 12.30. The fixed menu for 2 was £400 excl. drinks. That’s not unusual in central London for higher standard meals and service. Unfortunately the cost was not matched by quality. We are Londoners and are familiar with what’s available. So, the food and service fell well short of what was advertised. No NY fizz was offered before 12.00 and then the bill was presented to us, and the music ceased, at 12.02.
Pretty but average
This is an incredibly pretty restaurant. There is a great choice of cocktails. The winter menu includes lots of options, but we found that the menu didn’t accurately describe the dish, that is to say, there were ingredients or spices which you wouldn’t know were in the dish until you ate it. A restaurant that asks you if you have any allergies should detail all ingredients, this left for some interesting surprises. The downside was the cutlery and the toilets. The first time this has happened to me in a restaurant. The cutlery left off a black mark on your fingers (sort of like when you wear cheap jewellery and there’s a green mark left if you get it wet or have moisture). We raised this with the staff after our mains and when we got our cutlery for the dessert, we noticed the same thing had happened again. It was incredibly disappointing and so strange. Again, if you have an allergy to metals, this would have been a problem. The toilets were disgusting and I’m surprised that a restaurant of that standard and appearance doesn’t have someone actively cleaning and checking the toilets. In the ladies’, one toilet was flagged out of order, one was blocked (you couldn’t flush it at all) and one had wee all over the floor. The taps didn’t really work either. The only nice thing was the soap/hand cream which smelt lovely. Otherwise, I wish I hadn’t needed to use the rest room. For appetisers: Jerusalem Artichoke and Scallop Carpaccio. The artichoke is a shareable dish as there are plenty of foraged mushrooms. The artichokes are few but tasty. The scallop was so fresh and the lemon/garlic sauce was incredible. For starters: Fettuccine and Tortello del are. The sauce of the fettuccine was dry meaning it was difficult to twirl the pasta and you had to ensure it didn’t stick together. Could have done with some more liquid. The Tortello dish consisted of 5 tortellini in a creamy sauce, black truffle and a pungent Parmigiano reggiano. Heavy than expect but packed a punch. For mains: The Petersham Brasato and the Spicy Onion Squash. The beef cheeks were cooked very nicely and fell apart, and pairs with the truffle and jus. The pickled cabbage is definitely a necessity to break up the taste. Again though, a heavy dish. The squash itself was tasty. However it comes with this crispy rice which makes no sense. There are also a lot of fragrant sauces and vegetables on the plate. Definitely not a Mediterranean dish and probably wouldn’t order this again. Desserts: Rum baba and profiterole. The Baba is a classic, the sponge was amazing, the cream was fresh, the strawberries and presentation were a nice touch. The profiterole wasn’t anything special. The pastry was quite plasticky, the cream mid and the sauce was poured over the top and kind of ruined the dish. As this booking was for a birthday, we also received a decorated lemon sorbet crumble. The sorbet was unreal and exactly what you need after many dishes. Would definitely recommend.
Disappointing and overpriced
Went for New Year's Eve dinner. £170 per person and drinks on top. Not good value for money. Tiny canapé to begin with, then cerviche prawns, underwhelming cauliflower truffle risotto and then hake on mash with no veg. Heavy on salt throughout. Unusual, v chocolatey tiramasu but huge to end with and v rich. Drinks were nice - glass of Italian fizz, IPA beer and 1/2 bottle of soave. Jazz trio playing but finished at 12.02. Then bill presented with a hurried new year greeting. We were not asked in the lead up to midnight if we wanted any bubbles to toast the new year in. Given the evening and expense, we were not made to feel that visiting the Petersham was a special event. Overall, extremely disappointing.
Overpriced and mediocre
Sorry this was a big miss for me. The food is horrendously overpriced and, the majority, distinctly average. Disappointingly when paying £40-£50 for dish the waitress should know exactly what the dish comprises. To be fair the carpaccio with grapes was well worth the money but the steak (bland) / monkfish curry (bland) and fish stew was very much not. Definitely not somewhere I will be going back.
Sensational Food
Came here two years ago and was not blown away. Decided to give it another try because the restaurant is beautiful and elegant. The staff informed me that they have a new executive chef and let me say : BRAVO. Beef tartare 10/10 , Risotto and Linguine Pasta were outstanding. Monkfish curry is also well executed. Tiramisu is the best i ever had also because its different from the usual ones you find in Italian restaurants.
Perfect in everything!
Amazing place! My friend took me here when I was visiting London during a work trip. We were welcomed from very friendly staff who looked after us all evening. The food was so tasty and the wine recommended by the waitress was perfect! The atmosphere and decor is really nice and I thought that for a fine dining experience it wasn’t incredibly expensive especially considering that the restaurant it’s in one of the most famous and luxurious part of London. All in all highly recommended.
Amazing food and outstanding service
I took my Italian friend here who was visiting London. I was eager to impress her with Italian cuisine and found this little gem. The food was delicious and we had great table service. The ambience was out of this world. We both felt special and it made for an overall pleasant experience. Highly recommended and will hopefully go back some time soon.
