Harden's says
Michel Roux once ran this space within the posh five-star overlooking the Beeb at the kink in Regent Street above Oxford Circus. It’s been through numerous incarnations over the years and has sometimes struggled to find a formula that captures the potential of this elegant space. Next to try will be the Thesleff Group with the February 2026 launch of this first spin-off from the venerable Sale e Pepe Italian restaurant in Chelsea purchased a couple of years ago. The formula includes a seafood-focused menu, live seafood displays, and a Josper Grill. Sample dishes at the launch: Linguine All’Aragosta, Branzino al Sale, Linguine Vongole e Bottarga, Toro Grasso, Gambero Rosso, Spigola Crudo, Tagliarini Grancho.

For 34 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
