Take a stroll down Monmouth Street, London and you'll discover a little piece of England that will remain forever French. Mon Plaisir, London's oldest Family run French Restaurant, has been a purveyor of the finest French cuisine for over half a century. The entente cordial hits you as you enter, and the French atmosphere is as thick as the waiters French accents. You'll find yourself surround by wonderfully original French artefacts, you could find yourself leaning against the pewter topped bar which once graced the lounge of a Lyonnais brothel.

    Mon Plaisir continues to delight - a genuine French bistro atmosphere in the West End. Super food, friendly and efficient service. Thoroughly recommend the confit de canard, never disappoints.

    Fantastic food and service was friendly and helpful. Room we were in has 'cold' lighting which spoils the ambience & it was noisy but not surprising as close to Christmas. Very authentic.

    As always, one of my favourite places. The house salad starter was superb. The coq au vin would have benefited from longer cooking, in my opinion. Cotes du Rhone wine was very tasty and good value. I love tge authentic French ambience and service.
