Halal Reviews for Alain Ducasse at The Dorchester Mayfair

We were very excited to dine here and, having experienced several Michelin-starred restaurants before, we arrived with high expectations. We chose the Harmonie tasting menu, and while each dish was beautifully presented, some lacked depth of flavour. The scallops were outstanding and we also enjoyed the restaurant’s signature dish. However, the cheese course was underwhelming and the wild mushroom dish, one we had particularly looked forward to, was unfortunately quite bitter and didn’t meet our expectations. The staff were lovely, but attention to detail could have been better. The tables weren’t cleared between courses and the bread and butter stayed until dessert. A thoughtful touch was the final celebratory cake for our anniversary, which we truly appreciated. Overall, it was a beautiful and enjoyable experience, but when dining at a three-star Michelin restaurant, excellence is expected throughout. While there is much to admire here, we felt there is room for improvement, and for us, the experience did not quite justify the price.

Dining at Alain Ducasse at The Dorchester is, without a doubt, an out-of-this-world experience. The 7-course menu is a festival of flavours on the palate; the staff’s attention is unequivocally up to the exacting standards of Mayfair. As a dessert lover, I can emphatically say that the finest dessert I have ever tasted took place in this restaurant – “Baba like in Monte Carlo” is an obligatory choice to round off this exquisite tasting with a golden flourish. The 3 Michelin stars are precisely where they belong: the best restaurant in the United Kingdom.
