I booked a table at this place on a whim because of the Great British Menu connection. I just want to say that I have never enjoyed an evening of food as much in my life. We had the tasting menu and each dish was brilliant in its own way. Some were "just" lovely, others were revelations.I think the biggest accolade I can leave is that: I have a reputation for being a bit of a fussy eater, and there's loads I wouldn't normally try, foods I didn't think I'd like, many of those on the menu. I didn't leave anything on the plate at the end of any course.Well worth a visit. And I can't wait to go again to see what else is on offer!

Food, atmosphere, service. Excellent. Whilst you’d expect nothing less from a Grantley Hall restaurant, it’s easy for it to rely on exactly that fact. Everything was perfect though, and well worth a visit. Would highly recommend the Tandoori Lobster starter. A great way to celebrate my 30th. I hope to visit again soon.

This was the most amazing dining experience I have ever had. Everything from the staff when you first walked in to the meal itself was beyond exceptional. We both had the sample menu and everything was just exquisite. The staff are beyond helpful and friendly. It was just a fantastic experience from start to finish

We’ve been here before but had not previously tried the tasting menu and decided to give it a try. Wonderful meal and loved every course and we were pleasantly full at the end of it. Service was excellent and it should be when they charge you 12.5% for it. Lovely decor and setting. It’s not cheap and it was north of £600 for 4 of us, including pre dinner drinks, 2 bottles of a really nice Chablis and service charge. Would we do it again? absolutely.

Absolutely superb. We had the 8 course tasting menu and it was truly exceptional. Great relaxed atmosphere with attentive but unobtrusive staff.

Excellent, original food and superlative service. We went to celebrate an anniversary and received a card and a special dessert. Staff were attentive and knowledgeable, food beautifully presented and delicious.

Stayed at GH for 4 days and this was probably the weakest restaurant offering - but still very enjoyable. The standout feature was definitely the cocktail selection - we spent some time at the bar after dinner trying all the funky smoking concoctions. Staff were amazing, food decent if a bit too salty. Music a touch too loud!

After a disappointing meal at Shaun Rankin the evening before this was really good. Food, service and ambience were excellent and we enjoyed a great night. Only negative is it is very punchy on price but nonetheless a really fantastic meal with some great flavours across all the dishes we had and dessert was amazing.

Wow! What a meal. We each had the tasting menu and were blown away by it. Having a gluten and dairy allergy didn't stop the team from being incredibly accommodating and altering the dishes so that I could eat them. The biggest praise of the night goes to Wiktoria who assisted us through the night to get the most out of our tasting menu and was incredibly knowledgeable! We would come back here in a heartbeat for the divine food, excellent non-alcoholic drink options and top notch service.
A high end restaurant that won't book return transport for you so you have to leave your 8 course meal, walk outside because there is no phone reception in the restaurant, call a cab, discover they need a credit card to secure a pick up from an unreliable venue, go back to your table, grab your wallet to read out a credit card and return to your fellow guests waiting on you to return from what would have ordinarily been a request for a simple taxi booking.

This outstanding restaurant creates superb food unlike any other Asian Europian cuisine we had tasted. We can't single out one dish as being better because everything we had was delicious and lots of it too. The Silver Service was exceptional and so friendly which made our night more special. The restaurant ambiance is was amazingThank you EightyEight for a wonderful evening and thank you Grantley Hall, such an incredibly beautiful setting.

We visited for dinner for a special occasion and had a fabulous time The setting is wonderful. Contemporary, relaxed and sophisticated and you know you are in for a treat as soon as you walk through the door We were seated in a cosy booth for some pre dinner drinks and my husband had the ‘best margarita he has ever had’ and I enjoyed a lovely fresh and zingy mocktail. Great start to the evening Taken down for dinner the decor and atmosphere continues with style and sophistication into the dinning room. Initially a little disappointed not to be seated in another booth but our little table for two turned out to be just perfect We both chose the tasting menu, but with one vegan and the evening of tastes and textures began. Starting with a lovely chicken tea and vegetable broth both of which really packed a punch and beautifully presented with a beautifully decorated rice cracker. Without going through every course for you I will summarise to say we thoroughly enjoyed everything and was exciting to see each new dish arriving. As with everyone’s tastes being slightly different you may suggest little tweaks but for the menu variety and value for money there really is nothing to complain about The service was swift and attentive paying attention to wine being poured as needed and water provided throughout without needing to ask for anything. Our waitress was superb and kept us well informed on all the dishes and was genuinely interested in our comments The only slight draw back was a bit of a kitchen hick up towards the end which meant we waited a while for our final dessert and did have to leave before it arrived so didn’t get to experience the full menu. Real shame as everything was so perfect but maybe just a good reason to return Well done to all the team and sorry it’s not 5 stars but know it will be next time

The food is ok. That’s the most charitable description I can bring myself to write. Nice duck, nice chocolate desert, nice staff. Bit loud and the halibut was shamefully overcooked. Generally the dishes were a bit lacking in sophistication and flavour. The staff were very nice but it’s not enough to salvage this one. Really heavily overpriced for what they deliver. I’d give them a ‘well tried’
