Restaurant Reviews

344a Essex Rd, London N1 3PD

Stable Wines comes from the same team as Goodbye Horses. It's a wine shop upstairs, but head through the shop and you'll find the most beautiful wine bar downstairs. That's much larger than the shop with an almost gothic look. The same focus on natural wine can be found down here as well as a menu of small plates.

St Pancras, Euston Rd., London NW1 2AR

This Hawksmoor does what the oether do best, great steaks and more, excellent cocktails and a winderful vibe throughout. It also ups the game by being in one of London's most beautiful dining rooms. Plus, there's a separate bar called The Martini Bar which is almost worth the trip alone.

37 Sloane Square, London SW1W 8AN

Martino’s is from the team behind The Dover, and it’s an all-day Italian restaurant with lots of nods to 1950s and ’60s trattorias, but within a modern setting. It's an all-day restaurant kicking off at breakfast with dishes in the evening including dishes like beef carpaccio, short rib ragù tagliatelle, meatballs zupetta and a standout lasagna verde alla Bolognese. Very handy for the tube, there's also an excellent bar here.

8 Balderton St, Brown Hart Gardens, London W1K 6TF

Rosi is the main restaurant inside The Beaumont in Mayfair, led by top chef Lisa Goodwin-Allen (who also runs Northcote). The restaurant here is all about British dining, with classics like pork pies and suet pudding on the menu. There's also a big focus on tableside theatre, with a fair bit of flambeeing and the build-your-own sundae is always a big draw.
