The Rotisserie Whetstone

We lunch at the Rotisserie every Sunday unless away from home. The food is excellent and the staff are friendly and efficient. Lovely atmosphere and very comfortable.

We have been regulars ever since The Rotisserie came to Whetstone.

The ambiance is incredible and the staff always very attentive-even though it's always packed to the rafters.

The two course special is exceptional value and we can still get out of there

for under £35 for the two of us.

They pride themselves on their steaks and do no dissapoint.

Our favourite local!!

Very good food but spoilt by the untrained unprofessional service. The bill was brought to us before we'd even asked for it, as we were still in the middle of having our otherwise delicious desserts. Will not go back!

Outstanding in all respects!!!

The ambiance is fantastic-we could have been dining "just off broadway"

lively,bustling and noisy.

The food matched the decor-huge steaks cooked just as we ordered and a

good variety of side orders.The starters were simple but fresh ingredients

do not need dressing up.We had the famous chocolate pudding for dessert

followed by "illy cofee" again the best.

The house wine was well above the average you will find around London.

Staff were friendly and extremely helpfull.

We eat out 2/3 times a week and this place was a real find.

Certainly the best steak restaurant in London.

The Rotisserie Whetstone has been our list of restaurants to visit for many months but I always leave it too late - they are usually full when I call.

We visited for the first time last week and can honestly say that I had one of the best restaurant experieces I have for a long time .

I started with the scallops and my wife had the chicken peri peri sausages.

We both had perfectly cooked juicy steaks and finished every morsil.

We shared a chocolate pud for dessert which finished off the meal perfectly.

They offer a two course special for under £15.00- fantastic value if you are on a budget.

The staff were extremely friendly and made us feel as if we had been coming there for years.

We will make this place one of our regular eating establishments.

We came here last week around 9:00 pm without a reservation and we're lucky to get a table. This was our second visit and Im sorry I have to say that we were a bit disapointed with the food. The scallops were absolutely tasteless, cool and no flavour whatsoever, the buffala mozarella poorly presented. My wife King Prawns were also very hard and the presentation was simply horrible. A full plate of rice and salad with a hanging prawns. My steak however was perfectly cooked as I ordered. Another point was the wines, a bottle of Chablis at £ 39 which cost £ 9 at the local Cash & Carry is a joke guys. Restaurants dont buy in CASH & CARRY guys and the selection of red wines is also very limited and lack of imagination. Champagnes? yes but not the one you want, is out of stock. We were expecting this branch in Whetstone to be more profesional in terms of quality of food and drinks, not another daily trattoria please. The service was fine, very friendly girls and a managment taking care. Thinking to come again ? not sure.

I have been a fan of The Rotisserie for many years-well

before they arrived in Whetstone.

Despite having a few outlets they have continued to maintain and deliver

superb food.Their formula is very simple.High quality food -the most

well aged and tastiest steak in london-by a country mile .

The managers are all exceptional at all their branches and they all deserve

medals for putting up with the hoards of compaliners in Whetstone.

Julias across the way at The Haven Restaurant-just boots them straight out

of his restaurant.

The decor is excellent and will continue to recommend The Rotisserie

as my favourite local Restaurant.

See you next week!!

Food good

Was taken to the Whetstone branch to celebrate my friends 70th birthday. After being seated we asked for the lights to be turned up over our table as it was so dark that none of us could read the menu. My host who is partial blind was told when he asked for the lights to be set to maximum "maybe you would like a torch as well" which deeply upset him. When his wife asked for her steak to be well done she was told by the waitress"You might as well have my leather boots and put sauce on them"Extra bread took 20 minutes to come extra wine 25 minutes. First course was served and a peri peri saugage rolled off the plate onto the table. No apolige or effort to retifiy the situation. Service just was appalling

email was send twice to general manager who till now has not responded which fits in with the bad service of the restaurant

The whole evening was spoilt for my host by the sacastic comments made by the staff .

Fantastic restaurant, decor very nice and a great choice to eat, why go all the way into the west end when we have some really good food places in Whetstone. Prices are reasonable and the wine list is very good. Definately give this place a try (thats if you can get a reservation) Great place all in all.
