Restaurant Reviews

264 Brompton Road, Knightsbridge, London, SW3 2AS

This is the next restaurant from Tom Sellers, who's behind the very popular Restaurant Story. He's joined up with Daniel Phippard for this restaurant hidden behind Brompton Road which will have classic and contemporary influences. And a great big tree in the middle of it too. Expect a buzzing bar.

Canalside, Here East, 27 East Bay Lane, London E20 3BS

The people behind Soho's Mele e Pere have opened this Italian trattoria in Hackney. Expect a regularly changing Italian menu, vermouth on tap and plenty of home-made goods to take away.

120-122 Morning Lane, London E9 6LH

This restaurant is from Magnus Reid, previously best known for the Rooftop Cafe near London Bridge. This is a wine bar and restaurant which features a seasonal menu and an ever-changing wine list from small producers.

London Mertopole Hotel, 23rd Floor, 225 Edgware Road, London W2 1JU

This sees Bjorn Van Der Horst (Eastside Inn) and Omar Romero (Rhodes Twenty Four, Rosewood) taking over the dining room on the 23rd floor of the Hilton Metropole. Expect a modernist Japanese pub with food to match. Plus Kirin beer K-slurpys and clay barrel aged cocktails served on airline trolleys.
