Aubaine Mayfair

So the fork had a deal for food and we wanted to try it out as we haven't been to this location. It's a hidden gem of a location which you would walk past if you didn't know about it. I love the decorations they have used it feels very exotic and fun. We ordered the calamari which was lovely and fresh. Baked vacherin which was delicious a rich cheese that is messy but god does it task amazing. Miso aubergine which the miso sauce is so tasty and it's difficult to just have a bit of it. The chicken supreme it was so tender to eat and every bite just again makes you want more. The lobster pasta had that rich flavour and my girlfriend loved it. We shared it was half price so we went to town. The desserts are my favourite here. We had the millefleur which the filling is so lovely and you wish they just put it in a bowl for you to scoop. The pear tart had this home made goodness that reminds you of that skilled aunt that made amazing sweet goodness. The chocolate and coffee cake wasn't that rich and it was okay. They did a valentine's chocolate cake which was amazing I wish they did it again. Service was wonderful and they took excellent care of us. I highly recommend here and look on the fork app for deals and with the receipt they give you 20% off. If you found my review helpful please press like. Thank you so much.

I had a meeting with one of my friends. She took me to this place since she works around the corner. The restaurant is big and spacious.... The service was polite and friendly. Impeccable. Very please with that The food was delicious, they even gave us ...complementary sweets... that was a nice touch The toilets are spacious and clean

Great food and service. I had the beef carpaccio to start, which was one of the best I’ve ever had. Stone bass for the main and pistachio eclair for dessert were lovely.

Great set menu - two courses for £17. We enjoyed the warm bread baked on site, the octopus carpaccio then the steak (£3 supplement) and fish dish. Food was good for the price and a lovely menu for a summer’s evening. Where Aubaine excelled for us was the superb service. Staff were energetic, friendly, thoughtful and very attentive. It’d definitely be the staff and experience that would bring us back again.

We had a great dinner with the family. The food was delicious, it pleased kids and adults alike and we were very happy to be away from all the touristy restaurants by picadilly. We ll definitely go back.

I had the best time at this restaurant. I booked a surprise birthday get together for a girls night out. As expected the birthday girls were late. However, we were able to enjoy the night without any pressure from staff. We stayed so long and didn't want to leave as the food service and ambiance were all perfect! We were also really impressed with how reasonably everything was priced. We had a variety of mains, starters, and desserts, and it was quite a tough choice deciding what to select! The best thing about Aubaine Mayfair is the staff! Demetrious spoke to me on the phone and warmly welcomed me when I arrived at the restaurant. Çise was the absolute best host ever. And everyone else on the team was also really hospitable. It is also worth mentioning that Aubaine caters for Muslims as the meat is halal. I would say it's most definitely the best French cuisine you will experience in central London! Amazing service and value for money. Thanks to everyone for making this such an enjoyable night out!

I had a lovely brunch at Aubaine. I wanted somewhere nice to take my mother out for brunch and for that, Aubaine was perfect. It is on the expensive side, but you get excellent quality of service and food for that price. I had a filter coffee that was prepared and filtered at my table. The pistachio cake I had with it was delicious, with a delicate balance of flavours. I had the scrambled eggs with black truffle which was simple, but delicious. My mother had the goat's cheese which was also delicious. The decor is simple and rustic. Would recommend for a nice brunch, on the higher end of the budget.

Quiet atmosphere, lovely service (the young waitress was adorable) and food is unbelievably good. Starters were good, but the swordfish on artichoke pesto was sublime. Perfect roasting and flavours... Definitely recommended!

We had a fantastic time at the restaurant. The food is amazingly delicious, the service is excellent. We will come back for sure.

Excellent find slightly off the beaten path in Mayfair. Very nice ambiance, friendly staff, relaxed atmosphere, great food and generous drinks. Recommended. 20% included service charge is a lot, but ok as long as the staff gets all of it...

we had lunch here and the food was incredible. i had the chicken paillard and it was so flavourful without being overwhelming. the atmosphere here is also great. would highly recommend!

I love Aubaine's food quality as they serve a very good salmon. The brioche is also delicious. It might be the best eggs royale👌🏻

Amazing quality of the food. Exemptional service. You can clearly tell that all of the ingredients are fresh.

Great truffle pappardelle. I also like the lobster bisque spaghetti.

This is a great restaurant. The back wall is covered in flowers and decoration or you can people watch from the front window. Great menu and service at all times of the day.

Lovely place to discuss art while sipping your macchiato or Earl Grey after a tour through the surrounding galleries. Lovely staff.

Super nice and friendly staff with a great tasty food. The Chicken breast croquettes and Baked Camembert is a must try 😋👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

I had the pleasure to dine with my mother at Aubaine a few years back. It was for the end of my internship in London before getting back to France and I wanted to treat her to a fantastic meal. We went to Aubaine and had the best service we ever received. The servers were extremely helpful and had all the attentions of the world. The orders were placed quickly and were faultless. We had the roasted camembert as an entrée, it was creamy and sweet with the honey on top. The nuts were a nice crunchy touch. I had the lobster pasta which was wonderful, full of flavors and the texture on the lobster was exactly how I like it. We ended our dinner with a dessert. I had the chocolate cake and she had a fusion between a pain au chocolat and a croissant bakef in a dish. Surprising as it doesn’t exist in France but she absolutely loved it. All in all, it was a truly marvelous experience and I thank again the staff and the kitchen for making this special occasion a success.

Amazing lunch and my server Christian is such a joy. He brought french flair in Aubaine. The food and the atmosphere is beyond beautiful.

I had the fillet steak £39 served with fries, peppercorn sauce & watercress, as a side I had the cauliflower roasted cheese £8. The food was great all around I loved the cauliflower cheese. The vibe inside the venue was nice, it was quiet/moderate at the time since there was not many other tables. The service was great, attentive when needed. Overall i cannot stunt on Aubaine as it was a great experience. Only mishap I had was that I ordered the fillet steak as medium rare & it was more towards the rare side but it did not bother me much as I eat steak both ways it just depends on the day 😁

The staff were lovely and engaging. I had the lobster tail pasta and the lobster bisque the pasta arrived in was gorgeous. The calamars frits were perfect - it's always risky ordering calamari as it can be chewy but the batter was light and crunchy, with a lovely colour and taste. The fillet steak was cooked so well and as requested, with perfectly crisped chips on the side. The Noam beer that I had was nice and light, really enjoyable beer. Definitely worth a visit and would definitely return.

I ordered the cauliflower and mushroom curry following the recommendation from one of the waiters, it was actually a burst of flavors, highly recommended. The portions are not massive but I think the quality of the food makes up for it. The service was good, very attentive and polite.

The service was absolutely amazing. I had the lobster spaghetti, which was good but needed a lit more flavour and seasoning. The creme brulee was excellent.

Nice place for coffee and food. Chilled atmosphere and relaxed inside, Food was good, just. Club sandwich but very nice. Coffee was also good but just not hot enough.

Food is very good, nice atmosphere and sitting, prices are reasonable

My partner and I came here because we were drawn by the lobster pasta. We're going through a phase at the moment and are trying multiple restaurants serving such a dish. We ordered the wagyu katsu sando. The lobster pasta and a millefeuille for dessert. The lobster pasta was exceptional. Fresh lobster tail, was tender and flavourful and accompanied very well with the lobster basque sauce of the pasta. Wasn't too salty and burst of flavour with every bite. However for £40, it was on the pricier side of dishes on the menu. The wagyu sando was quite disappointing. The beef was tough, but very well seasoned. I understand it isn't A5 Wagyu, and they use British wagyu but I at least expected to not have to tear through the meat with my canines like I were eating a rump steak. The highlight of the night was the millefeuille. Decently priced and was a massive portion compared to patisseries around London. The cream was soft and sweet. Delicate and melted in the mouth. The pastry wasn't too flaky but just the right texture. It almost had me ordering another. The service was great! The waiter didn't hesitate with any questions we had and checked up on us throughout dinner to ensure we were satisfied. Water glasses were never left empty!

I’ve dined at Aubaine locations across London several times, and most recently visited the one in Mayfair. The food is consistently great—I’m a big fan of the Lobster Spaghetti, it never disappoints. That said, I did feel the service at this particular branch wasn’t quite as warm or accommodating as I’ve experienced at the others.

The food was alright. The restaurant was almost empty and the waiting times were simply not reasonable for the amount of people on the premises. The employees were just taking too long to serve the food. Some customers were clearly being paid too much attention while others simply being neglected. Perhaps you should not judge a book by its cover.

Really fantastic food and drinks. We had a lovely today and Anaise (sorry if we spelt it wrong) was brilliant as was our male waiter. Our only point is that for a bottomless brunch we felt the drinks could have come out a little a quicker.

Be aware that the brunch menu only applies to Saturday and Sunday, which was a disappointment to us as the lunch offerings consisted mostly of heavy portions (aside from salads) Staff were friendly and atmosphere relaxed!

Shared a lovely breakfast with my family here and service was very kind and accommodating.

The restaurant itself is quite pretty, and the staff look very professional however I wasn’t very impressed with the food. Starter - The cheese bruschetta was ok, however I suggest it to be shared as it’s a bit too heavy just for one person. Main - I had the lobster and prawns roll for main and the mayo was overpowering and I couldn’t taste anything else rather than that, I also noticed very few prawns and almost non -existent lobster. Dessert - the fruit tart had only strawberries on top ( was expecting a variety of fruits given the name) and had no pistachio heart. Overall pretty tasteless. I also found a piece of plastic in my starter , upon notifying the waiter he apologised… I didn’t make a fuss of it really but was expecting the curtesy of having that dish removed from the bill.

This used to be my first choice for brunch but today’s experience really left me disappointed. The service was very slow and not at all up to the standards. On top of everything they forgot my side and this is how a portion of chips looks like...overpriced frozen chips... too bad. Update: we’ve been offered two complimentary cakes without even complaining.

I have been to Aubaine multiple times for breakfast and lunch. Mostly because friends work in Berkeley Square so it's a great spot to meet and then go off to work. The food is solid and the service ranges from very friendly to...um...disinterested flamboyance from one of the waiters. All of which is quite fun to watch. The atmosphere is very relaxing and zen both early in the morning and at weekend lunchtimes (we went on a Saturday). Very calming even though you're right in the centre of town. I really do recommend coming here if you are in the area and looking for some solid cuisine at a fair price point. Will return multiple times, I'm sure. Update: went again at the end of October and it was £70 for a bottle of water, four cappuccinos, avocado on toast, mixed berries and a side of salmon. Although inflation is hitting everywhere, this is about 30% more than I would have expected. I no longer believe this is a fair price point, although this phenomena may not be unique to this restaurant. Reduced from four to three stars.

The staff was really helpful but the food was either too salty or cold. Bathroom was not cleaned. The restaurant is meant to be quite stylish and food prices are quite high but the ambiance and the service is not there. Would not recommend.

The least tasty salad I've ever tried was at Aubaine Maifaire London. It consisted of five wedges of Chinese cabbage coated in a tangy white sauce, two slices of overcooked and dried-out chicken breast (2 cm * 10 cm) without salt but with a strong bitterness of black stale pepper, one anchovy - just one! - and three very thin slices of Parmesan measuring 1.5 cm * 1.5 cm. It was an entirely dry and flavorless salad with a bitter taste. When I asked for additional white sauce, the waiter brought sour mayonnaise. I never knew that Caesar salad could contain mayonnaise 🫢. The price for this displeasure was £22!!! I would have liked to request a refund, but the situation didn't allow for it. Have a good day, everyone!

Food was nice, not amusing The service is really bad, and they got the bill wrong. Feel like the servers are in bad mood, wont come back to this place again.

Friday night, only 6 tables were there so they shut off the nice parts of the restaurant and clumped everyone into the front area. We were sat on an empty table where there was no cutlery, glasses or salt and pepper. We asked to move and she moved us to another table which was exactly the same. I do not expect to be sat at a table and then my table be dressed in front of me. Waitress was very moody, did not smile much at all. Food was ok, spaghetti was too al dente and the lobster was not very tender. This restaurant does not belong in mayfair …

Lobster Spaghetti was poor quality, chewy and hard with very little taste. Hostess/Waitress also did not smile once when serving us. Very small and quiet restaurant, not not live up to the prices

Considering that this restaurant is in one of the most posh neighbourhoods of London, the least you can expect is flawless service and food. Unfortunately, our experience was anything, but this. Where do I even begin? Walking in to the front door, a member of staff who was outside barged in through the door and knocked my partner with her shoulder. After sitting down and waiting for at least five minutes before a waiter decided to ask us what we would like, we ordered two coffees and scrambled eggs. Specifically, we ordered one portion to share and we asked for two extra plates in order to share the one portion of eggs. However, even without asking for the extra plates, when someone says the portion will be shared, it is inevitable that extra plates have to be brought to the table. Unfortunately, the scrambled eggs came without extra plates, and when we asked the waiter to bring us plates, she brought us two tiny plates that a coffee mug cannot fit on, and after asking for normal sized plates, the particular waiter was wondering around taking orders from other tables, knowing that we are waiting for two plates. For these reasons, I cannot rate this restaurant above one star however, for a Sunday, I must point out that the restaurant was understaffed with only two members of staff serving the whole restaurant, which could be a reason for this atrocious experience. Personally, I will never be visiting again, and I would not recommend this place to any of you, especially with all the other alternatives in an area like Mayfair.
