Scully St James's - London

The restaurant was empty when we arrived for our reservation. we were not visited as fast as it should be. another table did not sit too long after us and was served immediately. if a restaurant is as empty as this with plentiful staff, the service should have been much better. our plates were not deleted or changed after each cure. we had to ask. with food, this stinging and tasteful, plate change should be given. we had to ask for water again and again. there was a very Kursian explanation of each plate, and the recitations were hurried and red. the courts were so unusual, it would have been nice if the server acted as if they were taking care of them. when chef sully appeared, we were very excited to have the opportunity to talk to him. he spoke with the staff, then held at the only other table in the restaurant. from any reason he did not come to our table. we really wanted to meet him, so I asked if he was still there and was told by a worker that he was just outside. actually it wasn't. concerning eating, it was raised. the careful in the creation of each teller and each plate was obvious. the beef races were really excellent, accompanied by the pancetta tomaten ragu and a tasteful oyster mushroom mayo foam. my favorite was the gurkensalat, which was decorated with mango, cocosnus and buttery sunflower seeds. wow! my only culinary complaint is that every dish with oyster mushrooms was much too salted and many dishes contained them. also the lamb shell was prepared with lamb, which consisted only of gristle and fat. they were serious.

Amazing and different food on a good wise. beautiful staff a real joy thanks

That was extraordinary. such interesting aromas and combinations of food. the advice given by the waitress was excellent as the service was. really great experience.

Delicious meal and excellent service. Coming here for a birthday celebration was something of a risk but I had been attracted by an innovative looking menu and so booked for an early evening dinner. We were both delighted by the intelligent and attentive service and the extraordinary tastiness of the meal. We found we had to tuck away our tradition-bound expectations of what should be where and how things should taste. And we definitely needed the waitress’ guidance around the menu. But our taste buds were enchanted by everything, from the garam masala with curry Leaf chickpeas served as an appetiser with our drinks, through the skewered oyster mushrooms and the puff beef tendons, each used to spoon up their delicious sauces, to a gorgeous dish of duck on a bed of flavourful rice, culminating in a chocolate desert full of of flavours I have never experienced with chocolate before, but which made it more delicious than any I have tasted. Definitely one to come back to, though I must remember that the very high prices (meal for 2 with a bottle of Chianti and two glasses of Prosecco totalled over £200) mean the occasion will need budgeting!

Amazing food. Pricey, but excellent. The vegetarian dish I had as a main course was the best I had during my stay in London, and the beef entree was to die for. Excellent place.
