"The restaurant is housed in a beautiful building adorned with pictures of past prime ministers, giving it a private club atmosphere. I attended a reception in the Churchill room, a charming period room. The staff were generally pleasant, though a bit aloof. The wine was good and continuously topped up. The canapés were tasty, but there weren't enough for the number of guests and the staff didn't circulate frequently enough. It's a great place to visit if you're lucky enough to be invited. Just be aware that the street numbers on St James' Street are not in sequence, so be prepared to search for a bit."

Excellent simple lunch- Steak kidney pudding. Summer brings happy hours at the bar- Champagne at half price! What more can you want? Excellent service.

I was invited by a friend to join him at the Carlton for breakfast. I was exceptional. This is the real British Club experience which is really unmatched. The service was impeccable, the food perfectly cooked and presented.

A great breakfast, the only thing missing was the Marmite. Lunch, also fresh tasty. Dinner, wonderful, especially the specials of the day. Salubrious surroundings. The staff are absolutely outstanding, better than most top Hotels.

I enjoyed a dinner and wine tasting at this restaurant. The food was fantastic, the wines were excellent, and the service was top-notch. The presentation of the food was beautiful, it tasted even better, and the atmosphere was perfect for enjoying good company.

I have not dined at the Carlton for a couple of decades. I was invited as a guest to a dining club. This is where a club (I am a member of two) is tested to the hilt. They put on a good show. Service was gracious and smooth, the food was sound, that cusp between solid and fancy, one might say and the wines were sensible and mercifully poured. I left a happy chap.

Frankly, I'm surprised that Trip Advisor had this on its list for review as it's a private club. We're lucky enough to have a friend who is a member. This is a club of the conservative establishment of the UK. Members include prime ministers going back at least as far as Disrailie. As one might expect, the surroundings are quiet and in extremely good taste. The service is excellent and they have a very good cook.

I have visited this restaurant for lunch a few times and found the food to be average. I was disappointed that the soup was not served hot, which should be a basic expectation. However, I had the opportunity to attend a special dinner in October where everything was exceptional - the food, wine, and service. My only criticism is that the portions were quite large, but the quality of the food, especially the ceviche, was outstanding. Congratulations on a job well done.

I was invited by a friend to lunch there. Fantastic decor, with the picture of all Conservative Prime Ministers on the walls, the typical English Club! We started off with a visit at the bar with a brilliant Barman and then we went on a conducted tour of the Club, the Library, Veranda garden, smoking area and finally the Restaurant where we ate a very high class lunch with superb wine. As I was a guest I am not in a position to state if the venue was a good value for the money paid but, my God, what an experience!
