Best Seasonal Restaurants in Sutton Benger

Lovely experience celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary. Excellent service and delicious food.

We visited The Olive Tree on Friday evening for their seven-course tasting menu, and overall, we had a fantastic evening. On arrival, we received a lovely warm welcome into the restaurant. It was relatively quiet, with only a small number of other guests dining, which made for a really relaxed and intimate atmosphere. We were presented with an excellent wine list, and the staff were extremely helpful in guiding us towards a wine that would complement the tasting menu. The wine selection was quite expensive, but that’s perhaps to be expected at a Michelin-starred restaurant. Throughout the evening, we were looked after by a number of different members of staff and chefs, all of whom were friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable. Each course was brought out and explained in detail, including the ingredients, flavours and techniques used to create the dishes. This really added to the experience and gave us a greater appreciation of the food. The food itself was absolutely outstanding. We were genuinely blown away by the quality, presentation, flavours, textures and colours of every dish. Each course was an experience in its own right, and the standard of cooking was exceptional. We were at the restaurant from around 7 pm until 10.30 pm, so it was quite a lengthy dining experience. On occasion, we did feel the wait between courses was a little longer than necessary, although that’s probably us being a little picky. We had a brilliant night. The food was genuinely out of this world, and the team did a fantastic job of making the tasting menu an experience rather than simply a meal. A restaurant we would certainly recommend for the quality of its food, and an evening we thoroughly enjoyed.

Greeted with a smile and the 2 ladies serving were very friendly and attentive. It was very quiet in the restaurant but the atmosphere was still warm. We usually go to The Fox at Foxham, but thought we would give The Vine Tree a go. Although more of a pub, the food did not disappoint. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal would recommend.

The usual high standards, We enjoyed fish cakes and fillet steak neither of which disappointed. The chips were excellent as were the French onion soup and scallop starters. The apple tart flambee with ice cream was as always stupendous! Very good service

The fish is always beautifully cooked and the service is great. Thank you.
