L'Affaire - London

Please take down this restaurant from OpenTable. We booked a table for a group of friends through your website, only to arrive and find that the restaurant was closed. We are very disappointed.

Unfortunately, the restaurant was closed even though Opentable had confirmed my reservation!

We had on 21. June 2019 a table booked in this restaurant for 18:30. We arrived at 17:50 in the restaurant to drink a drink in the bar. When we arrived, the place was closed! There was a little hint at the door to say that they were closed because of a problem in the kitchen and would soon be opened again, but not when. We called the restaurant later this evening and left a message, but so far no one has returned our call. We had not informed about it by phone or e-mail. After we had traveled a considerable distance there, we were extremely upset to say the least. We could never recommend a restaurant whose owners treat their customers with dune. If you want a Resataurant in the Wandsworth area, L'Affaire should never be on your menu. We are also concerned that this is badly reflected on OenTable as a booking organization. I would appreciate your company's comments on this topic.

I think these guys have a great place but they just need to make more effort in terms of food and service. The waitress was really nice but did not speak English and couldn't describe what was on the menu. She also didn't seem to know much about the drinks available. The food was good enough but not very well presented and nothing special about it. There was not a huge effort to make it look and taste like a proper Sunday roast. It was just... meh.

Went for Sunday lunch. The place was fairly empty although it was later in the afternoon. We were fairly disappointed with the food; our Yorkshire puddings seemed to be of the shop-bought frozen variety, which is fairly unforgivable given how easy they are to make. And my beef came with a pointless side portion of mini shepherds pie, which arrived too hot to eat and turned out to be nothing more than mince in gravy. Overall a disappointing experience.
