It's located in an old wine cellar (the oldest in London) and dimly lit by candles. If you are looking for a spot that matches the dark and moody London aesthetic and offers plenty of history, this place is perfect for you. I was very surprised by the quick wait time. We travelled in August which is their busiest time of year and the most we had to wait for a table was maybe 10 minutes. This place seems to be a true hidden gem and more popular among locals than tourists. The cheese boards are delicious and just as unique as the place itself. They have plenty of flavors to choose from and have several different options depending on your budget. We went with the two cheese board and everything included paired perfectly with the wine. The staff was great at giving us recommendations and even let us sample several flavors before committing. We loved this place so much we decided to come back our last day for round two. If you are travelling to London, I highly recommend adding this wine bar to your list of places to eat or drink in the city.

Really cool atmosphere with a low cave ceiling, comprehensive wine list and lots of cheese, charcuterie and some other British favorites. We began with wine, rose bubbles and a glass of champagne- unfortunately my champagne was room temperature which is a per peeve of mine but the rose bubbles were served ice cold in a cold glass?! My husband did enjoy his wine! We were asked about food but they never came back so we decided to enjoy our drinks and the unique atmosphere before heading out

The cod was good and healthy but the pork chop was overcooked and tough for our taste. Loved the British Cheese plate for dessert but really wanted to try the Sticky Toffee Pudding.

We would definitely return and try a few of their other items.

I could not get enough of this place! I already am planning my next reservation, and what to order…read more Although we did get seated about 15 minutes past our reservation time, the wait staff was attentive and friendly, they also gave us a fantastic table on the upper balcony that didn't feel like we were too close to anyone else. As it was just two of us, and we were there more for the wine and cheese/meat, we didn't get any mains but the food around us looked amazing. Next time, I want to order the tartare, the oysters, the steak? or pork chop... everything! We ordered: the mixed selection charcuterie, as well as the herve cheese - a strong softer cheese - (looks small, but we almost didn't even get through the whole piece) and the beetroot and goat cheese salad. That has to be one of the best beetroot salads that I have had. The goat cheese was whipped-like, light and absolutely delicious. ALSO the bread.. keeps coming!!!! And it was warm! Yum! Waitress recommended a couple of wines for us, and we took her recommendation and got white to start. It was a great choice and we loved it. Crisp and citrusy. I wish I remembered the name. We went by the glass and got two glasses each. Total pp was about £25 each and we were more than full. Seriously cannot wait to go back....

If you want to splurge a little there is that possibility as well.Be sure you ask for a recommendation, they know their wine from what I can tell.

After countless trips to…read morethis city searching for a truly incredible meal, Andrew Edmunds finally delivered- and then some. We started with the Smoked Ox Tongue, which was outright delicious -- somehow better than bacon, if that's even possible. For mains, I went with the whole baked Dover sole and my colleague ordered the pork neck steak. Both were incredible. The sole was cooked to absolute perfection with the bones pulling away effortlessly, and every single bite was mouthwatering. I stole a bite of my colleague's pork neck too, and it was just as good. It's rare to find a restaurant that genuinely restores your faith in a city's food scene, but this place did exactly that. Andrew Edmunds is proof that incredible food does exist in London apparently you just have to know where to look. 11 out of 10. Cannot recommend enough. Bravo Andrew Edmunds.

Vinoteca Marylebone is an interesting place, situated near a pub, high-end shops and The Grazing…read moreGoat. On most nights, you can find it to be a busy place among those 30+ somethings, enjoying main dishes with an array of high-end (priced across the board) wines. It is also rated 4/5 on TripAdvisor, and so you'll see quite a few tourists here. It also gets quite loud in this small space, and so you won't be able to hear anyone further than 3 feet away. Our party ordered an array of items: Burrata: this is one thing that comes extremely well done. With little bread, we had to ask for more, however, this was because every bite my party and I wanted to enjoy the soft and fresh nature of this cheese. It lingers and leaves a creamy taste at the end of each bite. Cured Salmon: While not truly fresh, this salmon was done well with subtle smoked flavors. Agnolotti: Made from scratch, this dish is moderately filling but as flavorful as it gets. I think I rarely get to have fresh pasta that is prepared well and complements excellent European wines, so this was a treat. I highly recommend this dish or the lamb. Lamb: If you're a fan of savory, low temp rare-medium cooked meat then the lamb dish is your new best friend. The cuts were substantial and accompanied with a sauté of vegetables. There was also the pork collar entree, beetroot appetizer, poached peach, americano, chocolate tart and strawberry meringue items. I would say out of these, the meringue and chocolate tart were the most visually and taste-wise impressive, but to the liking of ones taste (of course). Service: the service, between two workers, was absolutely terrible. The servers had to be hailed multiple times, and did not deliver service promptly. Even for the check, there was a delay and we could not get responses about items on the menu when we had questions. There was not only poor responsiveness, but also poor knowledge of what was being done or cooked between chefs and wait staff. While not tipped in the UK, I found that this service to be even more dismal than other restaurants I visited. Due to this reason and the noise, it is highly unlikely that I would recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting London and looking for a good business meal. If you're not on a timetable, however, this might be a good place to spend a few hours.

I very much liked it here...especially the fact that they have Prosecco running from the tap ;-)…read more Just like the Vinoteca in Farringdon, this is a place where you just feel comfortable the moment you walk in: it's warm interiore, friendly chatter and happy people. When I was here, I first sat at the bar, while waiting for a few friends to arrive. I ordered a glass of wine and the guy behind the bar was really friendly and took the time to recommend something nice for me. Later we sat down and enjoyed a lovely meal - I ate the steak which came with double-cooked fries...what an indulgence! Attention though: they only take reservations for lunch. So if you want to come with a group of friends here in the evening, I recommend to send someone ahead and put your name on the waiting list. This place gets busy!
