London restaurants best for... Fine Dining
68 Royal Hospital Road, London SW3 4HP
Of all his restaurants the world over, this is Gordon Ramsay's flagship restaurant, based on Hospital Road. Matt Abé is the man in the kitchen here, in charge of retaining Gordon's three Michelin stars.
8-9 Blacklands Terrace, London SW3 2SP
This fine dining restaurant in Chelsea has racked up some serious accolades, led by Chef Patron Taylor Bonnyman and Head Chef Marguerite Keogh. Produce-driven (they have their own kitchen garden to supply much of what they cook), the 40-seater restaurant has a team with a huge amount of experience at the top end of British, European and American dining.
RICS, Parliament Square, London SW1P 3AD
Just across the road from Westminster, Michel Roux Jnr’s new London restaurant in the Institute of Chartered Surveyors building has 2008 Roux Scholarship winner Dan Cox as head chef. There is a separate first-floor bar serving snacks and smaller dishes and the 56-cover restaurant features a French/Mediterranean-inspired menu. It's a beautiful building with a stunning view of Westminster and Big Ben.
201 Tooley Street, London SE1 2UE
Tom Sellers previously worked with the likes of Rene Redzepi at Noma, Adam Byatt and Thomas Keller before making his own name with the Michelin-starred Restaurant Story. It's led by a tasting menu that changes by the seasons while still keeping in a few signatures, like his beef dripping candle. After a major refurb, an entire new floor was added to the building adding a chef's table with an impressive view and terrace.
The Capital Hotel, 22-24 Basil St, Knightsbridge, London SW3 1AT
Two Michelin starred Nathan Outlaw has opened this restaurant in the revamped Capital dining room. Expect dishes like Cornish crab on toast and roast brill on the bone, all created by head chef Peter Biggs who has worked with Outlaw for ten years.
85 Fleet Street, London EC4Y 1AE
More French perfection from the Peter Prescott and Terence Conran partnership. There's a charcuterie counter, sushi bar, members club and private rooms. Head chef David Burke comes via Bibendum and Pont de la Tour. Oh, and Samuel Pepys was born here.
41 Buckingham Gate, London, SW1E 6AF
With London high-end Indian restaurants being so good, it’s worthy of note that the Quilon has been one of the longest-serving in the city and it has a Michelin star to boot. Expect southwest coastal Indian cuisine with a high-end feel.
