Harden's says
Your eye goes to the horizon at this landmark space – the top of the Hilton Park Lane which for many years was Galvin at Windows (RIP). Since summer 2025, it’s channeled the opulence of 1930s Shanghai… well, to the extent you can from the 28th floor of a late-1960s tower block – with luxurious Chinese menu to match.
Harden's survey result
Summary
Boasting a magnificent panorama over Hyde Park from the 28th floor site that was for 20 years ‘Galvin at Windows’ (RIP), this July 2025 newcomer marks the arrival in the capital of a UAE-owned concept (part of the Fundamental Hospitality portfolio) proven in Dubai and Doha and soon to open in Monaco. 1930s Shanghai is the inspiration for its design make-over, while, according to the press release, the ‘Pan-Asian cuisine… is not just about eating – it’s about storytelling through flavours, textures, and experiences… spanning from China to Japan to Vietnam, while incorporating premium ingredients’. On the menu this seems to result in a vogueish mix of dishes like Yellowtail Carpaccio with Black Truffle, Cantonese-Style Roast Duck with Foie Gras & Caviar, Spicy Bluefin Tuna Oshizushi, and Braised Beef Short Rib Shanghai- Style. Top Tip – the adjoining cocktail bar, newly rebranded as ‘Bund’, has all the stunning views of the main restaurant; maybe sneak in a trip there first to scope out if this is one for you.
For 35 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).
