Who are we?

Since Wiltons was established in 1742, it has consistently enjoyed a reputation as the epitome of fine British dining in London. Located on Jermyn Street between Green Park and Piccadilly, Wiltons is a family-owned restaurant with a sister venue: Franco’s also on Jermyn Street. Both are managed by Director Jason Phillips who has worked at the Savoy, the Avenue and C London.

Wiltons combines a modern philosophy on service with all that is traditionally British to create the perfect dining experience. The atmosphere is perfectly matched with the immaculately prepared wild fish, shellfish, and game in season and meat dishes sourced from the finest farms.

The restaurant compromises of a bar area, a main dining room divided in 3 sections and a Private Dining room named the Jimmy Mark’s Room that can also be used as additional seating for the restaurant. Wiltons is open for lunch and dinner from Monday to Friday and dinner on Saturdays. For more information, please visit our website www.wiltons.co.uk
