Trinity

A beautiful restaurant, interesting menu, delightful food and warm, friendly front of house staff. One of the best in the area, if not the whole South West London. Had the tasting menu with matching wine and it was superb, left with a full belly and a wonderful experience. I wouldn't go by the negative reviews, toptable and trip advisor reviews says it all. A MUST RESTAURANT.

I dined at Tininty with a good friend on a Friday night. The 7 course tasting menu was average overall. The scallops were outstanding and the butternut squash soup was very good. The portion of beef tartare was too big as a starter and tasted strongly of anchovies and capers. The cod dish was not very inventive, the game dish acceptable but nothing special. Staff is friendly and welcoming, but service is inconsistent. The place seems to be aiming for a Michelin Star, but is clearly not there yet. The quality is far below the wonderful Viajante and the consistently fantastic Chez Bruce. What completely spoiled our evening, however, was that the guest at the neighbouring table were basically having sex in front of all other diners. It started with snogging at the table during courses 1-3, standing up and snogging with the whole restaurant pointing fingers at them between course 4 and 5, having a full foreplay in the dining area before course 6 and disappearing to the toilets to finish the job shortly afterwards. When the head waiter came to tidy up their table I mentioned to him that I found such behaviour pretty unusual in a restaurant of Trinity's quality and was surprised that it was tolerated. However, I was told that they were paying customers and therefore could do whatever they wanted. I was stunned. My guess is that Trinity is a Clapham's secret brothel. Would not go again, neither for food nor for 'people watching'.

This Time Out reviewer clearly doesn't know what he/she is talking about. This is one of the best restaurants in south London; one of Ramsay's favourite local restaurants, and one only needs to look at toptable to see reviews from customers raving about this place. I'm not connected to Adam or Trinity, just a happy customer.

Excellent Sunday lunch with my wife and 6 year old at this sophisticated but friendly Clapham local. Menu was interesting and all the dishes chosen were superb. Three courses for £35 make this a special treat but we will definitely be back. Even russled up a gourmet fish and chips for my daughter and service was delightful. Hope the impending and overdue Michelin star means we can still get a table!

I've been going to Trinity, on and off since it opened, and have never had less than a great meal there; usually it's even better than that. For a white table cloth restaurant, the room is elegant but relaxed, and the staff are informal yet graceful and clued up. The food is consistently very good indeed, and often has the power to really blow you away. Fantastic wine list too, and the staff are always on hand to talk you through it in a completely down to earth manner. Why Trinity doesn't have a Michelin star is a constant mystery to me. I'm surprised by Time Out's recent review, I visited only a few weeks ago for Sunday lunch and it was probably the best meal I'd ever had there.

Hope they treat their customers better than they treat the local community. Their bins are on the edge if the Common and always surrounded with rotten food, soiled packaging, last week it was loads of their menus blowing around in the wind. Yucch.

Superb meal and service. The staff were friendly and accommodating, and there was a lovely relaxed atmosphere when we went (on a Saturday night). Could not fault it!

When the food was good it was absurdly good. The pigs trotter starter, crab ravioli starter and poached pear with chocolate desert being cases in point. The cheese board was also very accomplished. However I left feeling slightly underwhelmed as neither of the mains quite hit the spot. My girlfriend liked but did love the veal, but my beef was just too over seasoned and saltier than the sea. I probably should have voiced my concern but the slightly stuffy foodie atmosphere meant I kept schtum, preferring to leave most of it, which at these prices is a travesty! Regards atmosphere, I found it a bit dry. My girlfriend who had visited before in the week commented that it was a little lacklustre, so maybe it was just a quite Friday night. Or mabye we’re too young (ie below 30) for the target market at the weekend. On another note service was slighlty mixed. At one point I tried to top up my wine to be beaten back by an over fussy waiter but by the end of the night, we sat for ages trying to get the bill paid etc. Either way despite some fantastic highlights I’m not sure I’ll be rushing back.

Found the food to be good but incredibly over-priced and the staff stuffy and rigid. Also service was slow, had to wait over half an hour between starter and main on a monday night. Also charge you £2per person for 1 tiny bread roll, a bit cheeky I think.

The review states children and babies welcome. Possibly true if they make no noise at all and never move about! This restaurant is lovely, amazing food but my advice is not to go with children. Despite what they may say they are not truely welcome in my experience.
