Jean-Georges at The Connaught

Dinner at Jean Georges at The Connaught looks great and the service is polished but the food landed in the “good, not special” zone for me. The best thing I had was a small complimentary soup from the chef genuinely excellent, and I wish it were on the menu. Nice room, worth a try if you’re nearby.

We came for the Afternoon Tea Experience, and from the very beginning, the staff were incredibly welcoming. During the service, we had the pleasure of being served by Fernando and Carolina — two wonderful Italian hosts who were not only very knowledgeable about the tea selection, but also explained the entire experience beautifully. They suggested the teas most suited to our tastes and even recommended some great activities to explore in the area. A very special thanks to Kate, she was also extremely accommodating and took the time to share some thoughtful suggestions, which we truly appreciated. The food was fantastic and perfectly paired with the teas, thanks to the team’s guidance — and the pastries were probably the best I’ve ever had in my life. The only thing that could be improved is the ambience: there was no background music in the lobby and could hardly been heard during the experience itself, which would have made the atmosphere even more comfortable and relaxing.

Really enjoyed dinner here, sadly don't have a picture of the lamb chops but they were cooked and seasoned to perfection and couldn't recommend them enough. Our favourite starters were the crispy salmon bites aabd the tuna tartare. Service is great here as you'd expect and if you go for a drink at any of the Connaught's bars they are happy to move your drinks and tab with you.
