The Franklin Restaurant - (Near Kensington and Chelsea, london)

Adam T A lovely little place! I had a quick visit with my wife two days in a row on a recent trip to London. The first time for a quick bite and the second I had Charlottes English. Neither time disappointed. The staff were friendly on both days, the food and drinks were better than expected and good value considering the area. I think Ill continue to visit any time Im lucky enough to be close by.

Caitlin Alexander We stayed here for 2 hours having an amazing lunch as it rained outside. Outstanding food, we had the scotch egg, fish and chips and sticky toffee pudding. On the expensive side but for us on holiday from Australia it was a perfect modern British gastro pub experience.

Luigi Strangis Like all the Ivy Asia, this branch in Chelsea is stunning. We’ve been welcomed by Yasmine, very kind and friendly. I booked a table so I didn’t have to wait at all. Staff were very helpful with the choice of menu and the service was fast. Food was absolutely delicious and the keralan chickpea and aubergine curry was out of this world! Will definitely go back!

Peter I was pleasantly surprised by this restaurant. The interior is vibrant and inviting, featuring a variety of colorful hanging lights and a striking painting of a woman displayed on the wall. The space is enriched with mosaics and decorative elements that create a warm, familiar atmosphere. The staff were exceptionally friendly, welcoming, and consistently smiling, which added to the overall positive experience. The food was very flavorful and visually appealing, matching the lively character of the restaurant. Prices were also very reasonable, offering excellent value for the quality provided.

boicu samson I had a great experience at Ziani — a charming neighbourhood Italian spot that feels warm the moment you step inside. The atmosphere is relaxed and intimate, with a real sense of history and personality in the décor. It’s tucked away on a quiet street, which adds to the cosy, local feel. The food was excellent. I went for seafood pasta, and it came out perfectly balanced — fresh seafood, rich sauce, and cooked exactly right. The starter was equally impressive, simple but done with care and quality ingredients. Portion sizes were spot on, and the presentation matched the flavour. Service was another highlight. Staff were attentive without ever feeling intrusive, and everything moved smoothly from start to finish. It’s the kind of place where you feel looked after. Overall, Ziani delivers that classic Italian comfort with genuine hospitality. I’d happily return — it’s a reliable, welcoming choice for a relaxed dinner in Chelsea.

Marie Taylor-Morrison Nice cosy restaurant with friendly staff. I had the grilled salmon salad which comes with baby spinach, watercress, heirloom beetroot, roasted butternut squash, feta cheese, red onion, basil, balsamic mustard dressing from the lunch menu which comes with a choice of house wines or beers for an extra £2.55. Nice size portion for the price. Enjoyable lunch.
