49 Lexington St, Soho, London W1F 9AP

After a number of years in pop-ups and other spaces across town, Rita's have settled in Soho for their main restaurant (they also do sandwiches in Dalston). The menu is inspired by owners Gabriel Pryce and Missy Flynn travels across the Americas and the wine list is pretty special too.

Ixchel is a Mexican restaurant in Chelsea led by chef Ximena Gayosso Gonzalez (previously Brat, Ella Canta). Using locally sourced produce, the menu features tacos, tostadas and larger sharing plates like smoky adobo short rib or sea bass with pistachio mole verde. Just as useful is the downstairs bar which focuses on tequila.

When the team behind a new pub includes those with top Mayfair credentials, the mighty JKS restaurant group and Michelin starred chef James Knappet, it all augurs well. They’ve given this King’s Road pub a new lease of life without tearing the heart out of the place.

Often cited as one of the most romantic restaurants in London, this Soho stalwart is also a great old-fashioned bistro with a decent wine list. If you're looking for somewhere to be flatteringly lit by candlelight - this is the spot.
