We went there for a business meal with an international visitor from US. It was a set menu. Everyone had a great time, food was great, wine selection was great, service was great and staff were very helpful with wine selection. I’d highly recommend this place.

An outstanding night of taste adventures matched with great wines that was perfectly presented by expert staff. I am often disappointed at the little things restaurants get wrong, Carlton Wine Room got everything right. Exemplary food, service and atmosphere. Go there!
