"At L’Atelier the balance of creativity with common sense and clear cooking skills is perfect, the room delightful, the matched wines inspired and the staff, even when wielding fire extinguishers, cool and solicitous." READ REVIEW
"The London outpost of L’Atelier stresses quality and simplicity above all else, and it makes for one of the best gastro experiences in the world, let alone the capital." READ REVIEW

"We went the route of three tasting dishes each. All were prepared with utmost finesse..." READ REVIEW
"...this nice meal was more appropriate to a decent bistro than to a restaurant bearing the name of a chef who holds 17 Michelin stars, more than any rival." READ REVIEW

"...this is an unusually slick and impressive restaurant, and everything we ate until the puddings - all ordered from the conventional half of the à la carte menu, rather than from the more faddish side offering small tasting dishes - was terrific." READ REVIEW

"...if you love food, and watching the theatre of the kitchen, once you sit down it's a joyous experience: great food without the po-faced flummery." READ REVIEW
"This, I think, is Robuchon's mission, to merge food of great style and finesse with a more liberal, modern dining experience. Mission accomplished." READ REVIEW

"The food here is what it’s all supposed to be about, and the food here is very good indeed." READ REVIEW
"... the inventiveness and balanced flavours and textures in something like the sautéed squid with baby artichoke, chorizo and tomato water danced off the plate like a naked choir singing kyries." READ REVIEW
