Halal Reviews for Frog by Adam Handling Covent Garden

From the moment I made the reservation to finalizing the details and enjoying a pre-dinner drink at the bar, everything was seamless. The food was simply outstanding - every bite worth it. Each course showcased a new level of creativity and technique, and it was nice to watch the chefs working their magic course by course. My absolutely favorites - the Pigeon with beetroot and black truffles and the Madeleines. That said, the atmosphere at the front of the house felt a bit off. There seemed to be some tension between the service team and the kitchen, and the vibe of some members of the service team was lacking warmth and genuineness. I would definitely go back for the food.

First experience at The Frog and I was not disappointed. From the moment you walk through the door, the warm welcome instantly builds anticipation for what’s to come. The restaurant has a London vibe, modern, stylish, and full of personality. The open kitchen feels like a theatre, the chefs the actors, and the food the performance. One of my favourite details is the menu: presented as a map of the UK showing where each ingredient originates. It adds a layer of mystery to the meal before it even begins. And the food… absolutely spot-on. A true talent of a great restaurant is to make you enjoy ingredients you normally might avoid and even make you say wow. That was exactly my reaction to the eel on toast. The Parker House bread was fantastic, and the liver-butter flower was almost too beautiful to slice into. The lobster and the red mullet also deserve special mention; both excellent. Of course, a restaurant is nothing without great service, and Lorenzo’s team operates like clockwork. Every detail is noticed. Even my napkin lightly stained after wiping my mouth with joy, was discreetly replaced while I stepped away for a moment. This was my first visit, but certainly not my last. Highly recommended.
