Square Meal Review of Oscar at the Charlotte Street Hotel ?

This ‘enjoyable & memorable’ restaurant is a place to relax & enjoy unfussy cooking – unlike the bar, it’s rarely packed, & there’s no table turning, so you can take your time. The vibrant decor (all pale woods & bold patterned upholstery) is typical of the Firmdale hotel brand, while a buzz from the adjoining bar adds some extra oomph. The cooking mixes seasonal British ingredients with eclectic influences, from a delicate crab salad to pot-roast chicken with ceps, pancetta & butternut squash or expertly judged rack of lamb with a seared crust & ruby-red middle. Finish with an elegant fruit tart or one of the signature sundaes, such as a cute take on Eton mess. Prices are pitched at wealthy hotel guests & those on expenses, but there’s a good-value set menu for everyday outings.

    Lunch at Oscar in the Charlotte Street Hotel was a very enjoyable and memorable experience. The decor is interesting and different and certainly not stuffy as some hotel restaurants can become.

    The food and service were both very good. It was a busy lunchtime service but that did nothng to distract from the quality of the food which arrived in a reasonable time. The Baked Alaska was particularly well prepared and fulfilled all of the expectations. My main course of veal was very well cooked and presented. The flavours supported the visual impression of the dish very well. My colleague and I both commented on what an enjoyable experience Oscar had given us and our intention to return.

    The only downside is that the restrooms are a little way away from the restaurant and that involves a few stairs. I am not sure if they have anywhere available as an alternative for diners with mobility issues.
