Very elegant and simple restaurant. Excellent service and comprehensive knowledge of the menu. The menu is small. We opted for the tasting menu. Every single dish was well presented, prepared and top notch! 3 Michelin stars well deserved!
Fantastic meal! It was faultless, we went for a 21st birthday and the experience was sensational. The food was delightful with all dishes being presented beautifully. The service was top notch we weren’t even allowed to pour our drinks and the ambience was lovely. A really enjoyable evening, thank you to all the staff and we really enjoyed meeting the chef! I advise booking early as it was a 5 hour experience for our table of 9.
The food was ok as was the service. Pretty disappointing given the 3 stars. They offered other patrons a walk through the kitchen along with signed menus and I didn’t get offered either. I wasn’t given a menu even though that’s customary for 3 star spots in my experience. As far as the food goes, I thought the dishes were composed well but were lacking in flavor substantially
Alain Ducasse at The Dorchester is elegant but falls short of expectations. While the setting is luxurious and service is impeccable, the dishes lack the depth and creativity you might expect. It’s a pleasant experience, but it may not justify the high price tag for some diners.Food: 4/5
We have eaten at a lot of the top restaurants in the UK over the years and for us personally this has to be one of the best. The service was impeccable not only because the team were extremely attentive, as you may expect in a 3 star but we had conversations with every person that served us. We don’t like stuffy or pretentious and this place is definitely not either. It’s a lovely warm and welcoming environment where you feel very at home and relaxed. When we described the type of wine that we enjoyed, the sommelier advised us on what he thought would suit best, he didn’t disappoint and chose perfectly. The food was balanced and extremely well executed. What we particularly loved and although it may seem small was that you had a cheese course included, rather than having to pay a supplement like in so many high end restaurants. The three cheeses provided were exceptional and complimented each other perfectly. You may think cheese is boring but when you taste this selection, you really won’t be disappointed. We were able to meet Jean-Philippe Blondet in person, a relaxed and easy going chef who gave us the time of day when he didn’t need too. A huge thank you to all the team that made the whole experience so enjoyable for us, we couldn’t recommend this restaurant enough.
I recently dined at Alain Ducasse at The Dorchester in their private dining room, and it was, without question, one of the worst restaurant experiences I’ve had. For a restaurant that boasts three Michelin stars, the service and attention to detail were shockingly poor from start to finish. From the beginning, we noticed service issues: bread crumbs and butter remained on the table between courses, food menus were left strewn across the table, and napkins weren’t picked up when anyone went to the bathroom—a detail that shouldn’t be overlooked at a restaurant of this caliber. Even worse, plates were being cleared before everyone was done eating, a level of carelessness I’d expect from a casual eatery, not a fine dining establishment charging premium prices. The food itself? Mediocre at best. It certainly didn’t match the high reputation or astronomical price tag nearly £6,000!. But the true disappointment came from the General Manager. When we politely raised these issues, he offered no apology, no acknowledgment, and no attempt to make things right—not even a complimentary gesture or a simple word of empathy. The experience left such a sour taste that we opted to skip the cheese and dessert courses, settled the eye-watering bill, and left. I wouldn’t return if they paid me to. Save yourself the trouble and find somewhere that actually values its patrons.
Alain Ducasse at The Dorchester offers the most refined dishes of the contemporary French cuisine, as by Alain Ducasse tradition, accompanied by the most prestigious wines in an elegant atmosphere for a special dining experience. Rino Siconolfi Instagram rino_siconolfi
Absolute culinary experience!! Also be prepared that the dinner will last for the whole evening - from start to finish it was 4.5 hours for us so I would recommend booking an earlier slot so that you can enjoy the whole experience at a good pace! Everything was impeccable but my highlight was the newly added dessert which is the Golden apple! They first dehydrated the apple then rehydrated it again as part of the cooking process to give a unique texture to it and I've never tasted anything like that before !! They are also very accommodating to any special requests so please don't hesitate to reach out to them when you book if you wish to change some of the dishes from the tasting menu!
3*Mich. I was disappointed as, to me, it lacked the magic of the Michelin star rating, the marketing and the wonderful glamorous surroundings within Dorchester Hotel. Only one dish was truly outstanding and memorable which is the scallops. It is a symphony of many different delicious flavours and textures. The remaining dishes were unremarkable. The Hugel Riesling wine is pleasant; I often have a glass of this exact same bottle in the French House Soho… hmm. The service set my teeth on edge announcing dishes far too rapidly and without engaging with us…the accent of one is so strong I could not understand what I was being told. Also I was uncomfortable with the manner of the waiting staff. I dined at Kerridge’s a few days later and both venues have enormously high ceilings; at both I found the feel/setting was unappealing and perhaps cold, compared to other venues. CH
We went for the tasting menu with paired wines. Having eaten at a few other Michelin restaurants Core, Heston, Moor Hall, The Kitchin we had some benchmarks to compare Alain Ducasse to. The service is impeccable and the staff were very professional and friendly. The entire service took nearly 4.5 hours and there were long waits between courses so make sure to factor this in if you have a late reservation. The surprise was the food. Whilst some dishes scallops, lobster were exceptional with rich, incredible sauces we didn't have those wow moments with the other dishes that we experienced at other Michelin restaurants. I would highly recommend the caviar, the way they served it made it one of the stand-outs for us. We went for the Icons wine selection and the sommelier had done an incredible job. We didn't want to drink 7 full glasses of wine so they kindly split this so we had half a glass each per course. We got to meet Alberto an absolute gent and his team which was a lovely touch, and his kitchen is incredible. It's a huge restaurant and whilst the fibre optics are striking, when you're sat there you could almost see the room being used for a wedding/conference venue because of the style of wood panelling on the walls.
