Restaurant Reviews

Connaught House, 1-3 Mount Street, London W1K 3NB

This restaurant from Richard Caring (Scott's, Caprice) isn't doing anything by halves, as the name might suggest. From the moment you enter, you'll be met by a room dominated by galloping unicorns. That's all matched with a Greek-influenced menu, but it's the whole scene which is the real draw here.

91 Golborne Rd, London W10 5PR

While Thomas Straker occasionally gets into the press for the wrong reason, he still has a huge social media following and his Notting Hill restaurant remains a hit. Here, you can expect a menu centered around sustainability and seasonality and certainly get to try a few of the chef's famous butters too.

82 Duke Street, London W1K 6JG

This Mayfair pub is now owened by the Cubitt House group who have given it a complete makeover, as well as completely relaunching the restaurant upstairs (which has been designed with a Mayfair clubby vibe). In charge of the food is chef Ben Tish and the menu here "takes its inspiration from Britain with a little bit of France."

100 Portobello Road, London W11 2QD

This Notting Hill restaurant comes from the people behind Pachamama, but this time it's all about Greek food. So expect a menu of modern mezze dishes as well as chargrilled meat and fish. On top of that, they have a bar that's worth the trip alone called Naked & Famous, in the basement.
