We chose to eat here for our annual Employee Away Day and we were not disappointed. The food was excellent, the wine list extensive and the service impeccable. Enrico was very attentive and charming. He looked after our dietary requirements with no fuss and made us feel completely comfortable. The sommelier was knowledgeable and we had great conversation with her, even allowing us to add to the dessert wine list! The food itself was delicious - even the dairy/soya free was tasty and presented well. All topped off with cocktails on the bar. For a Tuesday night, we were very impressed. Well worth a visit.

We have just had a meal at galvins at windows with our friends and were a little disappointed with our overall experience. We had booked a 3 course meal with half a bottle of wine per couple for £58 however this was not on the menu we were given and the server did not know about the offer so had to speak to a colleague who offered us either a bottle of red or a bottle of white rather than asking if we would prefer a half bottle of red and a half bottle of white . The food was a good standard and presented well, however when you are paying £58 for a three course meal it is very annoying to have to pay £8 extra for any extras eg a tiny portion of veg or mashed potato !!!!! On our last two occasions we dined at windows Fred Sirieix was the Maitre d and he would always make a point of speaking with all his guests , we didn’t meet the maitre d on this occasion until we were leaving and he apologised that he didn’t have the time to come and speak with us which I find very disappointing. On previous visits, at the end of the meal we were given a jar of marshmallows with the bill , when we asked why they had been stopped our server Livia explained that it was due to COVID which I completely understand however an individually wrapped chocolate or mint would have been a lovely touch at the end of the meal . Another lovely extra they used to offer was a postcard to complete and they would send, but yet another nicety which has been dropped! Come on Galvins, you you could do a lot lot better for what you’re charging and maybe employ some staff who are more people friendly!

This restaurant rates itself so highly that there is a cancellation charge of £25 per person. Imagine our shock therefore when we arrived on a cold wet day for lunch to find that the hotel is being renovated. The entrance was most unimpressive, but worse was to come. The heating had broken down and we had to sit with cold air coming from the ventilation. A miserable experience, which the engineers were unable to fix in time. No discount was offered in compensation. Altogether a ruined day.

We had a special birthday celebration lunch here on a Saturday and it was a lovely venue for a celebration. We started with a bottle of champagne in the Sky Bar adjacent to the restaurant and then had a great table overlooking Green Park and Buckingham Palace. We opted for the menu of the day which whilst limited to 3 options per course, was good value for such a highly rated restaurant and we all found something we liked. One little hiccup with the service but this was dealt with quickly and efficiently and after this the team could not do enough to rectify this. Great team work, lead by Andreas, super wine selection and lovely relaxed and casual ambience but in a stylish venue.

This monday my girlfriend and me organized a dinner experience for our short holiday in London and despite the important influx of guests everything was impeccable. For the location, everyone can only be enraptured both by the structure of the restaurant and by the breathtaking panorama offers to guests. Congratulations to all the staff, the engine of this reality. Attentive and warm welcome, from the courses created and elaborated by the kitchen staff to their service by the dining room team everything excellent. Manager Enrico (the number 10 who everyone would like to have), delighted us with his professionalism and cordiality, he recommended us excellent courses sensationally combined with wines by sommelier Giuseppe... all orchestrated by the direction of the manager Antonino. Really excited to share our experience, to have to try to achieve. Soon

Booked this amazing restaurant for my birthday after seeing the excellent Trip Advisor reviews. We were not staying at the Hilton but the restaurant is open to non-residents, go to the lift bank in the main reception of the hotel and select the restaurant. We decided to eat food from the set menu, which was exceptional value at £42 for 3 courses. You are also presented with canapés and delicious fresh soda bread. We were served by the very attentive Andrea K and Tomas, who were very knowledgeable about the menu and wine list. Starters: Devon white chicken & leek terrine, truffle & hazelnut dressing and house cured var salmon with pickled vegetable (carrot & brocoli) Mains: Hake with clams and smoked buttermilk and deica pumpkin risotto and toasted seeds (I chose not to have the blue cheese crumbled on top as I don't eat blue cheese) We also had sides of pommel purse and cauliflower cheese (the best we've both ever tasted of each) Dessert: chocolate choux bun with banana custard filling and salted caramel I would highly recommend this restaurant - the service, the food and the views were all amazing (we dined at night so had the London skyline in the dark) Apologies if I've not mentioned all staff who looked after us, but you all did a great job

Dining with my son. Reliving memories. We took the 7 corses tasting menu. It was absolute delicious. The excellent pairing wine choice by @Rudina Arapi really topped it off. We've had an absolute great evening. Thanks again!

I ate here with my wife on Saturday night and the Restaurant is nicely decorated and the service is quite good. I would have preferred perhaps to have a dedicated waiter as a number of our requests and suggestions needed to be duplicated when others approached too. The bread and Arancini balls they provide at the beginning were really very nice and moreish! My wife had the salmon to start which was definitely over smoked, i had the Venison tartare which i didnt like, it was all too rich and needed more of a pickled element - also lacked seasoning. For mains we both had the Wellington which tasted very good, only gripe with this was it wasnt very warm, its cut from a Wellington which has previously been served to others and got cold. Cauliflower cheese and the Chilli greens were both very nice but the Mash was a bit sloppy. Dessert was good.

We visited for a double birthday for my dad and me. Service from Ricardo and Andrea was faultless, the food was incredible and combined with some incredible wine suggestions, led to a much enjoyed lunch. The views take this place from a 9/10 to a 10/10 if not higher. Will be repeated for sure! Thank you everyone!!!

Set lunch for two on a Thursday. Relaxed setting with excellent service (mainly, if I recall rightly, from Daniel). All courses beautifully presented and delicious. This followed an earlier visit at the end of April, taking a friend for a birthday lunch, when we had a tasting menu with about 5 delicious small dishes. Equally good service and pleasant atmosphere. `

We came here for a stay for our anniversary and were looked after by all the staff so well. They were all very attentive and helpful, especially Enrico & Arianna. Food was fantastic. We had the veal & scallops to start. Both lovely. Both had the steak for main, perfectly cooked. Finished with the playful solero and tarte tartin. Although we definitely had a little bit of food envy when we saw that beef Wellington come out to a nearby table. Definitely a return visit needed to sample that.

The last time we had been here was in the middle of a massive snowstorm on an evening when almost every other table had bailed out and we were treated wonderfully, we assumed because we were about the only guests left. This time the place was packed and we were treated...wonderfully. So either it's something about us or, more likely, it's something about the team at Galvin @ Windows. We went for dinner on our wedding anniversary and had the no-choice Taste of Summer menu (4 courses for £49). Canapes were tiny parmesan doughnuts and smoked salmon cigars. Highly-flavoured cured salmon came with cauliflower, horseradish, caviar and a ponzu dressing. The excellent lamb course came as a cake of shredded shoulder and slices of loin, both tasty and tender, with celeriac two ways and a laverbread gravy. Strawberries and verbana came with strawberry sorbet and olive oil cake. Everything was light, perfectly cooked and beautifully presented. We drank a glass of champagne and a glass of an 'orange' wine from Puglia, then a Pio Cesare Dolcetto that went with both the salmon and the lamb, and finally Pio Cesare Moscato (on the house) with the strawberries. Service was excellent throughout, from the lady running the cloakroom to the General Manager. Particularly good wine service came from Davide, a sommelier I was astonished to learn had only joined the day before - the knowledge of the list he had gained in 36 hours was impressive. A lovely place. The only flaw was an obnoxious and overserved guest holding forth at the top of his voice to a rather embarrassed table of his subordinates, but that was hardly the staff's fault and they quietly moved one or two tables (including ours) to get people away from him.

My partner and I enjoyed a few champagne cocktails in Windows bar next door first then onto dinner at Galvin at Windows. Our experience was wonderful. Our table was situated just a row opposite the main front windows. It would have been nice to have had a front row table but I guess these were booked well in advance and to be honest our table was just perfect. We went straight for the main dinner . Beef wellington to share. We were advised 45 mins to an hour cooking time. This was fine as we were enjoying our drinks and talking at our table with some lovely bread. Main of beef wellington was superb. Cooked to perfection and the best we’ve had. The staff were very attentive professional and looked after us all night. Our 2015 Pomerol went very well and would highly recommend this wine. It was our anniversary and we would 100% return. Thank you so much for an amazing evening.

My sister and her husband, who live abroad, came to spend a week in London to celebrate her 70th birthday. Upon my recommendation, my sister chose Galvin at Windows for her celebratory lunch. She found the whole lunch experience thoroughly overwhelming - the setting, the food and above all else the very attentive front of house staff, they all made a memorable impression. Thank you Ricardo for making it possible to visit the kitchen balcony with the unforgettable panoramic view of London. That said, seeing the number of hardworking chefs (thank you all for cooking and presenting such wonderful dishes!) made as lasting an impression on my brother-in-law as the view did! I look forward with, great anticipation, to our next visit in September.

The tough thing we had to admit, on waiting until our 25th wedding anniversary to revisit Windows where my husband proposed, was what fools we have been not to come back sooner. We enjoyed delectable food in a stylish, modern dining area with great views and some of the best service we’ve experienced in London. The atmosphere was convivial without being pretentious despite the eye watering price of the food. It was honestly worth it as it was so well balanced and carefully put together with great skill; a beautiful feast for the eyes and every morsel was utterly delicious. Thank you to the staff that attended to us and made it feel so special. Sorry I don’t remember all the names but Giovanni and Rico were two, thank you to the others that attended to us also, we had a lovely evening and hope to come back again well within 25 years!
