Wright Brothers South Kensington

1. If you love fresh seafood, this is the place for you. We went for dinner with our kids (8 and 10) so they could try some fresh seafood, and we were very happy with the experience. The full house plate was amazing! It had cold clams, shrimp (with the shell), big snails, whole crab, mussels, and fresh oysters. Everything was super good, except the snails were a bit too chewy.

   The mussels dish was excellent and quickly served. The kids loved their linguine pasta and the fish and chips.

2. Oliver serving us was brilliant, a very positive attitude and was more than happy to help with anything we asked. Food was great and atmosphere was nice. Very clean toilet facilities as well.

3. My friend and I happened upon Wright Brothers restaurant and it did not disappoint. We were in the mood for seafood and we were pleasantly surprised with our dining experience. We were able to enjoy a three course meal with expertly made martinis as well. The food was flavorful while maintaining the focus on the seafood. I would definitely eat here again and recommend it to anyone in visiting South Kensington.

4. We had the oyster deal, they were fresh and tasty. We also had the prawn linguini and octopus dish. Both were really good, especially the octopus were cooked to perfection, crispy outside and very soft inside. We werent expecting much other than the oysters but the food exceeded our expectations.

5. We went for lunch after visiting the Natural History museum. We have been greeted by Larissa who showed us a table, but after noticing that we were looking at a different seat, she offered that one instead. That was a really nice touch.

   I have been few years ago to the Borough Market branch and I had great time, and I can happly say that my experience in South Kensington was also memorable (Probably even better!).

   We shared some small plates, everything was beautifully presented, well paired and cooked to perfection.
   The Octopus had almond flakes that were a really pleasant match, it was crispy on the outside and soft inside.
   Tiger prawns were served with a delicious Romesco, the only minus was that needed to be peeled and deveined (finger bowl was however provided as part of their mise en place).
   The scallops were the absolute star. Seared perfectly, meaty and juicy. Simply stunning.

   Diego, the bartender, recccomanded their House Bloody Mary, it was gently spiced, balanced and came with an oyster on top. Amazing!
   We also were allowed to try couple of wines before getting a carafe and their Viogner; it was perfect for our meal: dry, mineral and served at a perfect temperature.

   Both Larissa and Diego looked after us for the entire meal in a professional, knowledgeable and kind way. We felt a great atmosphere in the restaurant as soon as walked in. They both embrace a great culture of passionate Hospitality, something that lately is beginning to miss in London.
   Thank you for the fantastic meal and afternoon and well done to both FoH and BoH!!!
