Harden's survey result
Summary
This dramatic dining room (a former banking hall with an astonishing 5-metre corniced ceiling) of an Ian Shrager-designed hotel north of Oxford Street provides a superb setting for Jason Atherton’s well-established Fitzrovia destination. It has fans for all occasions thanks to its accomplished brasserie cooking, but it’s for wowing clients that it’s most often nominated in our annual diners’ poll and “there are booths that are ideal for business discussions”.
Summary
“For first timers, the room [a converted banking hall] remains one of – if not the most – dramatic dining room in London and possibly the UK” at this Ian Shrager-designed hotel north of Oxford Street. Jason Atherton’s smart brasserie cuisine more than holds its own nowadays, too, and it‘s a hit with expense-accounters as well as those on a big night out: “come for the business meeting, stay for the mac ’n’ cheese and wine list – always a treat!”.
Summary
“The impressive room is good as it looks in the photos” and “the bar is one of the most beautiful in central London” at Jason Atherton’s sparkling venue: a converted banking hall that’s part of a glam (Ian Shrager-designed) hotel, north of Oxford Street. With its “big and well-spaced tables” it’s “sure to wow your customers”, catch the attention of your date or set the scene for a “lovely special occasion”. Historically, other aspects of the performance have played second fiddle to the surroundings here, but this year it won all-round praise for its “excellent” luxury brasserie cuisine and “knowledgeable” service too.
Summary
“Jason Atherton certainly knows how to tart up traditional British fare”, according to fans of his “indulgent and delicious” cuisine within this “fabulous” space – a converted banking hall that’s part of Marriott’s glam, Ian Shrager-designed Edition hotel, north of Oxford Street. Ratings overall, though, are in middle territory, with harsher reports feeling it “rarely elevates above the level of a good gastropub”. Top Menu Tip – “the mac ’n’ cheese is simply the best”.
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).
