We went to Whits on a weekend to London in November 2009. We booked a table last minute and seemed to have no problem reserving one. The service was great, the owner even noticed that we had a slightly wobbly table and made sure it was straightened out. Food was excellent, I had the Terrine and then Tournados and my... more

Have walked past Whits 100 times but finally ate there 14 Nov. What a find! Engaging maitresse (Eva?) runs the front while partner chef runs the kitchen. All food choices were well-prepared, creative, and delightful. Our knowledgeable guest reported that the wine list was interesting and moderately priced. Service was attentive. Value was excellent (GBP 220 for a party of... more

I particularly liked the chorizo and lentil soup starter. The Turbotine fish was so perfect I didn't want to finish it. The lobster mashed potatos and mushrooms on top were delicious The orange souffle... more

We visited London for a week end staying in Kensington. I found Whits on Trip Advisor and booked a meal via the telephone. We were not disappointed. Although not cheap the food was excellent. My wife had Beef and I had a Rib Eye steak with chunky chips. Both were cooked excellently and plenty of it. We shared a chocolate... more

Whits is a very cute, professionally run restaurant. They take pride in their classically good french food. Had steak tartare there---hadn't ordered this in years. Done well. Special dinners go as low at GBP 14 for two courses, but the a la carte menu isn't that much more. more

On a recent trip to London I looked on here to find a decent restaurant and boy did this one live up to expectations! Impeccable service and food. Everything was perfectly cooked & the puddings were just to die for! Great choice of menu although I asked for the Foie Gras ravioli to be removed from my dish as I... more

We have been to Whits several times now and have never been disappointed. The friendly but unobtrusive staff serve up great food at realistic prices and take great care to cater for our special requirements. This is definitely our favourtie restaurant in London. more

This is an excellent restaurant that serves Michelin star quality food without the pretention and silly prices.The chef manages to create dishes where all the flavours compliment the dish rather than dominate.The service from the chef's wife & team is a refreshing balance of friendliness and professionalism that helps create a charming ambience. London needs more of these restaurants,where you... more
