Totally overrated! To make it short: It's AVERAGE in all respects, not more. The atmosphere is NOT EXCITING AT ALL. Waiters are rushing to take orders, we didnt feel ready when they approached us for the third time. Food was ok, but nothing spectacular - we had the chateaubriand; it was not easy to chew...The staff was pretty arrogant. We have been to much nicer, higher quality restaurants in London - definitely, Le Caprice is NOT RECOMMENDED!

Steak tartare appetizer followed by Dover Sole was great but for the hollandaise that was cold. Duck salad was wonderful. French fries were tepid and went back. Service is terrible although waiters don't look like the old union hacks that have forever bedeviled the Pierre. Hopefully, someone from London will come for a year to make sure Le Caprice lives up to its reputation. What a shame. You only have one chance to make a good first impression.

in summary a 1 hour 45 min experience for one course at the end of lunch service (not during peak hours) with serve yourself wine for a grand total $170 (if only it had been BYOB instead of self service it might have been a better deal) – I won’t be rushing back!

Loved the Cauliflower soup as a starter , and the Salmon fishcake was fantastic , very meaty with little filler and tons of taste

what a disappointment ! first of all they made such a fuss about not being able to accommodate 8 instead of 6 and the table was more than big enough. Not to mention the place was not even 60% full. It was supposed to be so hip and cool but it was more like an A.A.R.P. meeting. My salmon cake was burnt on the outside and cold on the inside i felt terrible for the Salmon that gave its life for such an inept chef
