   It was good, however they were quite rude and forceful about photos in the main dining room with flash on. It is extremely dark in there and After paying so much money for food, I should be able to take at least 3/4 photos with flash on so I can acc capture the experience I paid for.

   It is not nice at all to be told to leave the bill on the table while we are drinking our tea and eating our dessert. It was annoying that the waiter kept telling us to get up.

   Bacchanalia London: Stunning Ambience, Inconsistent Experience Bacchanalia is undeniably a visually stunning restaurant with an opulent atmosphere that makes for a fun night out. However, while the setting is impressive, the overall experience left much to be desired. The food was hit or miss—my fish dish lacked seasoning and depth of flavour, while my friend thoroughly enjoyed her lamb chops. Service was another weak point. The sommelier was unhelpful and dismissive, insisting we order a dark liquor-based drink special despite us clearly stating our preference for light spirits. When my friend, feeling pressured, ordered it and we later sent it back, the sommelier’s frustration was obvious. The arrival experience was also disappointing. Despite having a reservation, our table wasn’t ready on time, and we were directed to wait at the bar—only to find there were no seats available. We had to keep an eye out ourselves for open spots, and our table wasn’t ready for at least 15 minutes past our booking time. Additionally, while the bartenders encouraged us to return after dinner, we were surprised to find that the bar closes at the same time as the restaurant (around midnight), which felt unusually early for a venue of this calibre. Ultimately, Bacchanalia is worth visiting for the ambience and a drink, but the food and service didn’t live up to expectations. I’d likely return for the setting, but not for a full dining experience.

   I booked a table for Women’s Day, and the entire experience was outstanding. From the moment we walked in, every member of staff was incredibly welcoming, greeting us warmly and making us feel truly valued. The service was impeccable—attentive, friendly, and professional. The food was absolutely delicious, with generous portion sizes that made the meal even more enjoyable. The restaurant itself is stunning, with beautiful decor and impressive architecture throughout—even the toilets are elegantly designed! This place is an absolute gem, and I will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend!

    The food we ordered was very delicious. It was very good wine paired. The service was excellent, they really know how to take good care for their guests. The only minus of this beautiful place is the noise. Yes, there are too many seats for the size of the hall and it is too loud.
