Sorry to hear that.
The few restaurants which require a jacket gave me one (I'm thinking of the US and France, can't remember if I face this situation in the UK ). Unfortunately it was only for the time of the dinner as some of the jackets were nice
Requiring a jacket and don't provide them is not very "michelin stars" oriented.
I could be wrong but believe Robuchon Vegas require a jacket, most guests had one, I never had one there.
I remember once at the GV a waiter almost shouting at a guest 10 meters away that a jacket is required in the restaurant......
