Harden's says
Spanish celeb-haunt Amazonico (famous for its lushly forested interior - think Rainforest Cafe without the animals or kids) has now opened in the former Allied Irish Bank building in Berkeley Square.
Harden's survey result
Summary
The “wonderful decor” at this jungle-themed Mayfair haunt combines with live music and cocktails to create a “great atmosphere”. But the high-end Latin-American-cum-Japanese cuisine comes at “gulp-inducing prices”, and critics say the venue is “Instagram-worthy but not much else” – “a place to go to be seen”.
Summary
“If you feel like a party this is a good place to come” – this lavish, foliage-filled Mayfair haunt ‘goes for it’ with its “live music, nice cocktails and lively ambience” and provides a “great setting” (including for romance). Fans say “the food is as good as the music” and applaud a “superb overall experience”. But there are also those – particularly who focus on the sushi and luxurious grills rather than the complete package – for whom it’s just far too overpriced.
Summary
“It’s the full experience – live music, vibe, décor, cocktails, food – that makes for a magical evening”, according to fans of this forested Brazilian-Japanese fusion haunt, in the heart of swanky Mayfair. On the downside, prices for its sushi and luxurious grills are “absurd”, but even those finding the venue “faintly ridiculous and definitely pretentious” say “the décor is worth the price of admission and I couldn’t help enjoying the ride!”
Summary
“A great atmosphere and amazing food” dazzle fans of this “fun”, “see-and-be-seen” late-2019 sibling to Madrid’s celeb-haunt of the same name, famous for its lushly forested interior (think Rainforest Cafe, but without the animals or kids), which occupies the former Allied Irish Bank building in Berkeley Square. On the downside, though, prices for its luxurious sushi, seafood and charcoal grills verge on “astronomical”.
