Square Meal review of Clos Maggiore: ? Write your review

The restaurant formerly known as Maggiore’s may have been given a new French name & menu but it’s held on to the sophisticated, unpretentious atmosphere that has always set it apart from the usual riff-raff of eateries around the Covent Garden piazza. The brief menu of elegant, modern French fare might include meltingly tender char-grilled scallops with crispy pig’s trotter tart, succulent treacle-caramelised duck breast with Armagnac sauce, & a fantastically luscious apple tarte tatin for dessert. Unhurried service ensures there’s plenty of time to enjoy the six-course tasting menu & to explore the award-winning, 90-page wine list which focuses on France but also offers good worldwide coverage. The front of the restaurant is better suited to business dining, with its rich wood-panelled walls exhibiting a rare selection of brandies & Cognacs (acquired from the Duke of Windsor’s private cellar), while the beguiling faux blossom-filled conservatory at the back is ideal for candlelit romance. The dimly lit, traditionally furnished private dining and wine tasting room, meanwhile, makes a cosy setting for an intimate dinner or cocktail party.

My boyfriend took me to this wonderful restaurant as a surprise and it was a fabulous evening. The food was delicious and the service was just perfect – not too little and not too much. The sommelier swiftly solved our indecisiveness issues and the wine she suggested worked perfectly with the dishes we had chosen. Yes it's rather on the pricey side but in my opinion, food, wine and service like that is worth paying for.
