Well Le Cinq in particular had a scandalously bad (and very entertaining) review from a very well known restaurant critic questioning how the hell it had 3 stars: https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/lifeandstyl...

So maybe trust your gut more?

I've only ever eaten at one restaurant with one star (Hisop in Barcelona) and it was wonderful, but I don't think there's any reason to think the Michelin ratings are a perfect system.

Looks like your link was mangled into uselessness by Google?

Seems like the link that they shared leads to the site's favicon.

I think this is the correct one: https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2017/apr/09/le-cinq...

Jay Rayner is a delight (he comes across better in his writing, I think, than he does on TV). He had a comically bad time at "The Polo Lounge" at the Dorchester recently too: https://www.theguardian.com/food/2021/aug/15/the-polo-lounge...
