Lovely place but tables too close together food ok setting lovely. Couldn’t hear my guest talk - who was new client as the tables other side were 300mm apart. Starter ok cod was a bit tasteless but my guest enjoyed it so that was a plus.

Service poor for the price. Had a few bites of the special pasta (orecchiette with beef ragout) it was flavourless and we found bones in it. Server took dish away without asking how it was or for feedback and we weren’t offered any discount. We asked for coffees, waited 30 mins, they didn’t arrive and were still included on the bill

Good service, didn’t think much of the food. Pre theatre Menu was a bit limited and very dull. Chose the location as we had to go to Cadogan Hall for an event but probably wouldn’t to eat here again.

Tastey food. Would be nice to have more food options as only a few food options. Really beautiful atmosphere. Service was ok it took quite long for the food to arrive and for them to take our plates once we had finished our meal and we went up to them to pay as it was taking a long time. Overall a pretty place with yummy food just a bit slow with the service but would still recommend to a friend.

We enjoyed a very good early-evening meal at The Botanist, where the pre-theatre menu is a relative snip at £30. Tuna carpaccio and halibut were expertly prepared and thoroughly delicious. The dining room is elegant and comfortable, and our window seat gave us an amusing vantage point from which to observe the beautiful people of Sloane Square. All in all a great pre-show option for patrons of the Royal Court & Cadogan Hall.

Unfortunately we had a bad night; table 6.30pm and by the time we ordered 40 minutes later they had run out of the hamburger (one of their most popular dishes). Alternative choice of food was sub par but Manager recognised the issues and dealt professionally. It’s a shame as I’ve been to Botanist many times before but whatever happened in the kitchen it just didn’t materialise.

Sandra, it's upsetting to hear that you did not receive the top-notch service we strive to provide. If you are willing to give us another chance, please reach out to us at 020 7730 0077 to speak to our manager directly. Thank you
