"There is nothing wrong about this restaurant but it is also nothing special for the price range. Places like Eneko have menus at similar value and the food is exceptional, whereas the food in Quantus was not flawless. I was the “lucky one” since I seemed to order the best dishes in the menu: the sweetbreads, the grilled octupus and the nut cake. My husband ordered the Heirloom tomatoes salad and the tomatoes were tasteless. The chimichurri steak was ok, but far from the best. The same could be said from the crab cakes. The worse thing however were the deserts. My husband ordered a panna cotta which almost needed a knife to be eaten, and my friend ordered a chocolate mouse that had an off smell (we all noticed) and hence did not eat it. In addition when we arrived the restaurant was full but nobody had been served which resulted in us having to wait very long for the food. The service was very pleasant though and the octupus and nut cake were very good"

"We ate a falafel wrap, a roast veg wrap with vegan cheese and some of the salad. It was delicious. I think those were the best wraps I have had for quite a while. Moist and filled with veg. I would eat these again any day. We also drank some Tumeric tea and some chai latte. Again excellent. All the food is vegan. I really want to try the chocolate doughnuts . Run by two friendly sisters. A very cosy environment."

"great, what a fantastic little restaurant. we went for a lunch on Saturday to taste food before we think about an event rental. everything about the meal was wonderful, the service was on point, weeping excellent and eating out. we had 2 starters and one signed. it was a hard choice to choose the best fish cake that ran a filet of monks through the middle and uzy pork brawn croquette. we had the hagel with heifer for the main and that was perfectly cooked, the bark with a little bark boxty on the side was a taste explosion. it is recommended to give this place:"

"My daughter and I went to Wild Thyme to celebrate my birthday on Thursday. I thought the service was great and the young man was very helpful. The food was nice and we really enjoyed it. The ambience was good with small candles on every table. My only two suggestions would be to make the portion sizes somewhat larger. I ordered the flower flower bowl, which was very tasty and the Prawns, but since there were only three yarns in one part, I had to order a second part, as I was still hungry after both dishes. Also, I would add some cocktail options and some cocktails in the menu. Overall, I thought the place was nice and I would definitely go back."

"Prior to dinner, we were invited to Bar 45, by a “member,” and had a wonder pre-dinner wine experience. The Bar is elegant, and understated, with rather limited seating, in the bar area. We were seated at one of the bistro tables, beside the smallish bar. The décor is attractive, and a bit like a modern take on a “gentlemen’s club,” with a lot of more contemporary straight lines. It seems geared more to private functions, but does offer an abbreviated bar menu, “Rough CUTs” from the Wolfgang Puck CUT on-property. We were there only for the wines, so did not get to sample any of the food items. With two glasses of the Jean-Louis Chavy, Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru “Les Champs Gains”’14, a glass of Drappier, “Signature”, Blanc de Blancs NV Champagne, and a Ginger Beer on ice, in front of us, we found that the noise level was quite low, and some pre-dinner business could be easily conducted. The surfaces of the room appeared to absorb the noise from the other patrons very well, though it probably helped that most were speaking in rather hushed tones. The room just seems to make that appropriate. Our service was friendly, and efficient. Though probably geared more to cocktails, I was impressed by the wine list. As I found on almost the entirety of this visit, many more wine lists in London are adding some excellent USA wines. This has been both a change, and a surprise from most of our visits. Bar 45 was a prime example of this, with many very good, to excellent USA producers, even in the B-T-G selections, and then on their “bargain” list, called “CUT’s 60 Under 60,” with bottles at, or below £60 – a very nice touch. Over the years, our UK board members ask why I never order USA wines, and until now, my comment was always along the lines of “the USA wines, that find their way to London, are not ones, which I would serve, or drink. Also, the prices are far too high. I will serve USA wines, when we have you to my country, for the board meeting.” Well, the times, they are a changing, and Bar 45 is a prime example of how much. We will return, and maybe even explore those USA wines, but only for my UK board members, as I get those at “home,” but cannot get such lovely Montrachets there. We also want to return for the bar menu too."
