The starters were incredible. Had the seafood tartare and the roasted scallop. Highly recommend the seafood tartare.
Turbot as the main which was good and light plum sorbet. Good service and good food. Would come back

I very much enjoyed my evening at 20 Berkeley, what a striking building, lovingly restored with many nooks and crannies to get lost in! Right from the beginning, I was shown round, being in the presence of a Picasso in the private dining room to the small bar next door which almost felt like you were in the front room. After a few cocktails we made our way upstairs to a booth and was welcomed with menus that was a fitting tribute to Britain. With vegetables grown at the elephant and castle, seeing as I was born in the wonderful and ever so vibrant elephant and castle, this felt special. The menu is in the style of an origami type folded Victorian love letter. And the love letter was addressed to the farmers and producers up and down the British isles. The food was impeccable, marmite had even been incorporated, marinated in nostalgia, I for one tip my hat and am here for this style of simplistic purism!! Bravo
Absolutely stunning night. Came with my family with 11 people in total and everyone was satisfied with the food, service and the whole experience. The manager is professional and have deep knowledge of all the dishes. He was being very considerate when I was pre ordering the food so that we had the right amount of food at the end. Have to point out the slow grill whole turbot as well because it was grilled to perfection. Personally I love the roasted scallop with sorrel velouté the most as the flavours were beautifully unified. Will definitely revisit again.
As a member of Ten with Barclays, I got an email from my bank mentioning that 20 Berkley is offering 50% off my food bill until late July, so I jumped at the opportunity since I already made plans in the area anyway.
And I have no regrets! Amazing service and even better food. I would come back for the bread alone. Just wow!

What a wonderful time we had! This place truly is a hidden gem. From the exquisite food to the stunning design and ambience, everything was just perfect. We were warmly greeted upon our arrival and offered some delicious cocktails to enjoy at the bar before our meal. Speaking of which, the signature cocktails here are absolutely amazing! The bar staff were so helpful in explaining each one to us, taking the time to make sure we fully understood what we were ordering.
Then Matthew, the restaurant manager, kindly escorted us to the dining area where we were able to take a quick tour of the venue. The private dining room was absolutely stunning!
To our delight, the food was just as amazing as the cocktails. Our order consisted of asparagus with quail egg, risotto with saffron, and Dorset snails. As our main course, we decided on John Dory, Rib Eye, and Sea Bass. The food was absolutely delicious! Each dish had its own unique flavors and was cooked to perfection. We also received a great wine recommendation from the head sommelier, which perfectly complemented our meal.
After enjoying a delicious meal, we topped it off with an assortment of cheese and a chocolate tart. It was the perfect ending to a wonderful dining experience.
All in all, the service, food and drinks, as well as the atmosphere and design, provided us with an exceptional experience that we will never forget. Thank you for the great hospitality guys!

Great interior and great food! British led produce at its finest with the best execution!
Highlight was the Nipperkin bar with innovative cocktails and great atmosphere! Very cosy, and Angelos and his team provided the best hospitality!
Highly recommended, will definitely be back!

An exceptional new restaurant right in the heart of Mayfair.
We received a warm greeting on arrival and were shown to a lovely downstairs bar for cocktails - the range of options was great, I had trouble making a choice! It had a warm and comfortable atmosphere with a knowledgeable team of staff who were happy to make recommendations.
We had a beautiful table upstairs for dinner. You can tell that attention to detail is taken seriously here - even down to the lovely menu design. Once again, we were attended to by a couple of brilliant staff members who were happy to guide us through what was on offer.
The food was absolutely delicious, the lamb in particular is worth mentioning - it may have been one of the tastiest meals I've had. Their wine selection is very extensive, and again the team were happy to give recommendations based on our food choices - our bottle did not disappoint!
An all round 5* experience, I couldn't recommend highly enough - we'll certainly be going back soon!

Outstanding restaurant.
A lot of thought and passion has been put into designing this restaurant. The interiors are probably some of the best I’ve seen in all my dining.
The menu (although simple. I had a look online and was looking forward to the specials menu, will be back if I can eat from this menu) had British classics which have been cooked to perfection. Here’s what I can recommend:
The honey rolls with marmite butter to start were so moreish however I found impractical as the buns were especially sticky and I had to use my hands to remove from the basket.
The cod was so soft and the ingredients it was rested on was so flavourful. Very pleasantly surprised how they managed to elevate this cod dish.
I’m not usually a fan of dressed crab but this is the only dressed crab I have ever enjoyed. Full of a variety of textures and flavours in the best way including melon and potato (I think).
The apple tarte tatin for dessert was very large (it does say for two people but I was still shocked at the size considering it was also a very reasonable price), I love an apple tart and this was extremely good especially the buttery flakey pastry.
I did finish with a ginger tea where I felt, for £4.5, they did skimp on the amount of ginger. Having only two small slices, the flavour could’ve been stronger.
Also we were charged for the wrong alcohol, only noticed once we left, which therefore cost us more than needed.
Overall I think this restaurant is delightful, great atmosphere and food. The staff are very attentive and professional. I’ve been to a few openings of restaurants where the staff and restaurant as a whole doesn’t feel ready to open but 20 Berkeley is prepared and I expect it shall be very popular if it keeps up the impressive quality of service, food and atmosphere.
(The toilets are also gorgeous, you must go!)
