Few families can lay claim to prouder culinary pedigree than the one behind this seriously slick restaurant just off Oxford Street. It’s a joint venture from Albert Roux (the first chef in the UK to earn three Michelin stars) and his son, Michel Roux Jr (the one off the TV – and holder of two Michelin stars at Le Gavroche). So it won’t come as a surprise that this place impresses by the bucketload.
Throw in a glowing four-star review from us – plus plates from a head chef with previous at Palm Court and the Michelin-starred L’Atelier de Jöel Robuchon – and this looks like one particularly delicious way to spend an evening out. Oh, and did we mention the belter of a dining room? Seriously, not many better lookers in London.
