Our first visit, a miserable Wednesday night. We loved the warm welcome and although the restaurant was quiet it had a really pleasant ambience, spotlessly clean, decorated with attractive fresh flowers. I really liked the menu, the choices were appetizing and I really could have happily eaten everything on the menu. My starter of beetroot tarte tatin was delicious, the egg perfectly cooked. A fresh foccacia was provided on the table and we soon demolished the lot. Our table chose the cod and beans and the oxtail as our mains. We all raved about the food. If we were being picky we all found this course a little heavy on the salt, not enough to spoil our food but our preference would be for l...
If you want well-cooked innovative food with a traditional twist then this is an inexpensive gem hidden in Ealing. It may not have the curb appeal of being in the town but it does have a pleasant ambience and well-decorated and furnished dining room that is light, airy and spacious. You cannot hear the conversation at the next table!!! Food is of a high quality and although the menu is small (is this a bad thing??? the choices are varied and surprising. The fact that all the staff (including chefs are trainees means that service is not Michelin Star but they are delightful and eager to please. The quality of the food is excellent and this is what one eats out for!! I would recommend this as...
The restaurant is tucked behind the University of West London in Ealing. An inviting warm atmosphere with a modern decor. The students are training and supervised. You can tell a bit nervousness in the students but overall they did a great job. The chefs were able to accommodate a gluten and diary free diet and also my colleague who was vegetarian. The bread and butter was better than top end eateries in London. Also, a gluten free bread was delivered. We asked for an additional serving! Water was served infused with mint cucumber. The cauliflower steaks were flavorful and filling, the soups were served hot and at a perfect consistency. The value you get for nourishing cuisine is to phenomen...
I am a 5th year student studying Culinary Arts Management and I am writing this review to express my joy and satisfaction in working at Pillars Restaurant on Friday mornings. Despite going through a delicate health period, being in the kitchen under the leadership of Executive Chef Paulo and his Assistant Chris makes me feel much better. Our food is made with fresh, high-quality ingredients and prepared with love, passion, and dedication. I highly recommend anyone looking for a great gastronomic experience to visit our lovely Pillars Restaurant. Our food will surely make your stomach smile! Speedy Gonzalez

I have been living in Ealing for many years and recently visited Pillars Restaurant at West London University for the first time. It was an amazing experience and I will definitely be returning. The gazpacho soup with parmesan custard, hake with beans and chorizo, and individual platinum jubilee trifle were incredibly delicious. All of this, along with coffee, came to a total of £14.50 and they do not accept tips. My two friends and I thoroughly enjoyed our meal.
Over the past 2 weeks we have had 2 very good lunches at Pillars. We thoroughly enjoyed the food and the efforts of the new trainee staff. My wife and myself thought they were terrific. Complements to Manager Will. The students will learn a lot from him. Very Professional. We very much look forward to returning next September when we are in London.
Excellent food .excellent service. Spotless. Great atmosphere.staff first day serving food to customers were super efficient. Chefs first day cooking for customers served great food. Windows kept open so good circulation if air in a huge spacious restaurant.
Extraordinary value for money. We had between 6 of us Spring vegetable soup, cod with poached egg, spinach and crushed potatoes, roast sirloin of beef with vegetables, panno cotta, chocolate and coffee cake. All very good quality with attentive service.

I just came back from lunch today and I can't say enough good things about it. The value was fantastic, the food choices were great, and the front of house staff were lovely and eager to enhance their skills. We will definitely be coming back again.
The food was fantastic and the service (particularly Dominic) was exceptional. The music was perfect as well. Can't wait to visit again
