Reasons to go
Full description
Perched above Regent Street inside the Hotel Café Royal, this Michelin-starred dining room offers large windows and natural light that set it apart from the more subterranean fine-dining rooms nearby. Reviews are more mixed than most of London's top tables, with a 4.3 rating from under 200 reviews; some praise confident, well-executed courses using excellent ingredients, while others feel the cooking is polished but lacks a distinct point of view.
It's a solid choice for a smart evening out in the West End rather than a must-book pilgrimage, and the calm, light-filled room lends itself well to a relaxed but still special dinner.
