Manager notes · 29 Sep
Lunch Managers: Kyle, Ruby · Report by: Ruby FOH Busy Tuesday lunch (137). A lot of reservations wanted to be seated outside due to the weather so we had to move sections around in order to facilitate this. The team did well at being flexible. A few larger groups in, the reservations were spread nicely with the set arriving at 12:00 so they flows to the kitchen were good and not too many orders were put through at the same time. We had Sophie doing her first shift on the pass today and she did a great job, Taanu was training her very well. Overall a great Tuesday lunch, llots of happy guests. Events / Reservations A few larger groups in for lunch today with one set menu of 15 - Brunswick house. We took 16 walk ins.
Notable Guests: Fergus Lawlor, Peter Saville, Darrell Vydelingum Beverage Notable Guests: Fergus Lawlor, Peter Saville, Darrell Vydelingum Dinner Managers: Ruby, Kyle, Jolita, Junyi, Naya · Report by: Ruby FOH Half hire tonight so a more intimate service, the weather was lovely so we had 2 sections outside and 3 in. Big pre theatre crowd in with almost all early reservations opting for this. We had a set menu of 11 join us (decreased from 12). They arrived at 6:30. Reservations were spread nicely throughout the sections. Not an extremely busy night, only a handful of turns due to the terrace being in use. Guests were very relaxed and were able to extend their stay with us tonight which was nice to see. Lots of cocktails and wine for a Tuesday dinner!
T204 was a regular, he was very excited to see what was new on our menu and opted for the pear salad and the partridge. Very excited that the chocolate sorbet was still on the menu, he said ‘I hate all other chocolate ice cream normally but I love this sorbet!’
T106 - very complimentary when they left. Saying the staff here are so lovely and that they love it at Toklas so so much!
T202 - sabina - had a lovely meal with us, again very complimentary of the food and service. We sent a chocolate sorbet as one guests was allergic to egg and couldn’t eat the ice cream. They were very happy about this and said the desserts were fantastic! Events / Reservations We hosted Thomas Dane gallery tonight in celebration of Salman Toor's exhibition opening. They started to arrive from 8PM with canapes going out by 8:15PM. They really enjoyed the food with some guests complimentary the red wine as well. They stayed up until midnight and headed off the St Clements for a night cap. Excellent work from the team tonight, staying ontop of everything up until closing.
Notable Guests: Sally Johnson, Andrew Spink, Sabina Fatkullina. |

Guest feedback · 29 Sep
★★★★★ 4.8 average · 8 responses received ★★★★★ Caroline Jefford · visited 28 Sep · Lunch · 2 covers · served by Finn Food 3 · Service 5 · Ambience 5 please power wash the main steps up from the street- they are so grubby- i visited toklas again yesterday after a tear and main approach is still so grubby- lets you down big time. also signage on arrival is poor- i really dont want to be confused finding the restaurant entrance and instead see the words OFFICE in amateur lettering on my approach.
also food wasnt really up to scratch - granted it was a monday lunchtime but the rocket and pear salad was bland and poorly presented, and the potato vegetable medley served with the mackerel was definitely made on saturday- potatoes tough and dried up . the main was swimming in excess oil. very disappointing. sorry as i was prepared to be wowed.
service was excellent though and made up for everything- we had a good time ★★★★★ Yves Kim · visited 28 Sep · Dinner · 2 covers · served by Ayhan Food 5 · Drinks 5 · Service 5 · Ambience 5 It was my boyfriend's 30th birthday dinner and the service was AMAZING. I never seen this level of service in any London restaurants. Really impressive and felt really warm from their hosting. thanks so much for the bubbles and ice-cream with a candle! I'll cherish this lovely memory you made for us!! ★★★★★ Wendy Miles · visited 28 Sep · Dinner · 2 covers · served by Aleks Our waitress was lovely, as was Alice on the front desk. ★★★★★ Eleanor Hargadon-Lowe · visited 28 Sep · Dinner · 2 covers · served by Sophie B Food 5 · Drinks 5 · Service 5 · Ambience 5 Absolutely fantastic food and service. Was really wonderful dining experience. Thank you ★★★★★ Helen Wilkinson · visited 28 Sep · Dinner · 5 covers · served by Sophie D Food 5 · Drinks 5 · Service 5 · Ambience 5 ★★★★★ Joshua Bishop · visited 28 Sep · Dinner · 2 covers · served by Sophie D Food 5 · Drinks 5 · Service 5 · Ambience 5 ★★★★★ Takaki Ochi · visited 28 Sep · Dinner · 9 covers · served by Medi ★★★★★ Kristina Blagojevitch · visited 29 Sep · Lunch · 3 covers · served by Olivia Food 5 · Service 5 · Ambience 5 Google Reviews ★★★★★ 4.7 / 5 · 1,259 reviews total 2 new reviews ★★★★★ Rex Leyland · 29 Sep 2026 NO REPLY Truly a wonderful surprise with imaginative food and fabulous house wine all to be highly recommended coupled with friendly warm service. ★★★★★ Joshua Bishop · 29 Sep 2026 REPLIED Simply perfect.

Revenue: Lightspeed net ex-VAT · lunch = tickets opening before 15:00.
Events: split from Lightspeed accounting groups (Food/Drinks/Wine Events, Event Hire), shown within each shift. Booking detail and budget from the events sheet.
Events pipeline: sheet cost column (ex-VAT where entered) summed by month vs FY budget — unpriced bookings excluded.
Covers: SevenRooms non-cancelled bookings. SPH = food/bev revenue ÷ covers.
Sales budget: current month pro-rated to today; complete months use full budget. Events budget: events sheet (fiscal year).
Revenue forecast: actual MTD + normal-day rate × remaining normal days + booked events. The normal-day rate is this month's actual non-event-day average, regularised toward the budget's normal-day rate early in the month (an ~8-day prior) so a strong or weak start does not swing the whole month; it converges to actuals as the month progresses. Whole-venue events (≥£15k) replace the day; bar events keep ~70% of a normal day alongside the event.
Profit: restaurant Net Profit & Trading EBITDA from the latest MI management reports; updates monthly as reports are issued.
Guest feedback: SevenRooms post-dining surveys · Google reviews via Google Business Profile API (all reviews, paginated).
