Brunello Bar and Restaurant — Restaurant in London

Brunello is a restaurant with a comfortable yet formal design that just feels luxurious from the moment you walk through the front door. I wanted to have lunch in the Kensington area near Hyde Park, so Brunello at Baglioni Hotel seemed like the perfect place for me.

Wife's birthday Myself and my wife had an awesome time enjoying the Italian afternoon tea. We were served by Jalinka who provided excellent service to us. We enjoyed all 3 three courses of the afternoon tea (however the scones could have been softer).

Following the afternoon tea - which we enjoyed indoors - we then asked Jalinka to provide us with a table outside so that we could mark the occasion by smoking some cigars and drinks. In summary, the place is not cheap but it does represent great value for money. You get what you pay for here (this was our second visit and there...
