- CPCathPBath/Somerset •3 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoWe got here 25 mins before our booking time, but were taken immediately to our table, served with drinks, and our food order was taken quickly. Both courses we ordered came in a decent amount of time, and were lovely. Not a huge vegetaran offering, but as long as there's cheese in some format, I'm happy! During this time it became very busy, the noise level picked up and then the staff were presumably insufficient in number to cope, as by the time we got someones attention we did not have time for dessert. We were heading to a matinee show, so couldnt risk the dessert and then bill taking a long time. It was a shame as the dessert is my favourite part, but luckily I hadnt seen the dessert menu so didnt know what I was missing!More infoThe Ivy Soho BrasseriePrice: Expensive• Contemporary British• Soho•4.2

- OTOpenTable DinerLondon •1 review5.0Dined on Jan 1, 2023One of the best meals I've ever eaten... Came here for a birthday treat with my partner. Everything about the experience was perfect: from the hospitality at reception, the impeccable and friendly service in the bar and restaurant, to the food itself. It's not cheap (although the express menu is very good value) but represents good value for money in terms of the quantity and quality of the food. The steak and lobster were the highlights, but there's something mouth-watering on the menu for all appetites. Highly recommended for a special occasion.More infoHawksmoor Air StreetPrice: Expensive• Steakhouse• Piccadilly•4.5

If dining in the U.K. still evokes lackluster fish and chips or sorry boiled vegetables, it’s time for a trip. Call it the renaissance of British cuisine—from revived and updated bangers and mash to regional authentic Chinese, London has rewritten its own culinary story and now proudly bears the qualities of a veritable food destination. With a population of nearly 8.8 million people and one of the most popular airports in the world, the city is a bastion of cultural and culinary diversity, from an old world Parsi café and forage-forward tasting menus, to rethought English breakfasts and markets of all types. We’ll cheers to that.
