Featured Marylebone Restaurants
1. Carousel
Fusion restaurant in Marylebone
71 Blandford St - W1
“A brilliant idea that never disappoints” – this Marylebone venue hosts “a different guest chef every week”, flying in “some of the most exciting cooks in the world, who deliver an astonishing range of food”. Lunch from the crack in-house team is also “terrific and great value”, comprising “small plates full of original flavours”.
2. Blandford Comptoir
Mediterranean restaurant in Marylebone
1 Blandford Street - W1
“Wonderful bistro food” – “surprisingly fancy, but very well executed” – matches up to a notably “interesting and well-priced wine list” at this “delightful little wine bar” in Marylebone from Xavier Rousset, the youngest-ever Sommelier of the Year.
3. Les 110 de Taillevent
French restaurant in Marylebone
16 Cavendish Square - W1
“You will never get bored, although you might get drunk!” at this London scion of Paris’s famous Taillevent group, where “you can try 110 different types of superb wine by the glass”. Set in “an attractive former private banking hall” – on the opposite side of Cavendish Square from the back of Oxford Street’s John Lewis – its “staff are extremely well-drilled and make everything effortless and smooth”. However, “the total cost of a meal takes it out of brasserie territory”, while the “seasonal French cuisine”, though “enjoyable”, doesn’t always seem in keeping with the level of ambition that the final bill might imply.
4. Artesian, The Langham
restaurant in Marylebone
1c Portland Place - W1
The source of indulgence, guests will be inspired in Artesian, named after the original 350ft-deep well under the hotel. At the forefront of the sophisticated London bar scene, Artesian creates a perfect blend of a fun atmosphere with an innovative approach to cocktails.
5. 108 Brasserie
British, Modern restaurant in Marylebone
108 Marylebone Ln - W1
Set in the heart of Marylebone, 108 Brasserie, just off Marylebone High Street at the top of Marylebone Lane, houses two distinctive areas; the bar, a chic and sophisticated drinking and dining area and the brasserie’s dining space, where its modern British dishes take c...
6. Roux at the Landau, The Langham
British, Modern restaurant in marylebone
1c Portland Pl - W1
“Smooth-running and elegant” – the recently-adopted, more modern and svelte style of operation (no tablecloths, and a new central bar for counter-style dining) is suiting this Roux-branded dining room: part of a luxurious five-star hotel, opposite Broadcasting House. Despite the harder-edged look, the ambience remains “delightful” and the cuisine is “first class”, with the option of eating à la carte, or from the six-course tasting menu. “Spot-on service”, in particular, featured in numerous reports this year.
7. Twist
Fusion restaurant in Marylebone
42 Crawford St - W1
“Very surprisingly delicious, every mouthful – way beyond expectations” – Eduardo Tuccillo’s tucked-away Marylebone venture (on the site that ages ago was Garbo’s, RIP) is arguably “very underrated due to its location” in a “so-loud, as it’s so-small” two-floor space. But while it feels “too casual to be a very special night out, the food and service can’t be beaten”: “a different approach with tapas that aren’t just Spanish” delivering “some inspired food combinations”. “On the pricey side, but consistently well worth it.”
8. Locanda Locatelli
Italian restaurant in Marylebone
Hyatt Regency, 8 Seymour St - W1
“A restaurant of the highest calibre, which manages to be elegant and unpretentious at the same time” – Giorgio Locatelli’s long-established Italian (which he, and wife Plaxy, opened in 2002) provides “a fantastic experience from start to finish”. The hotel environment it sits within can seem “rather sterile”, but the division of the moodily-lit dining room “breaks up what could be a large soulless space”, and the ambience still feels “buzzing after all these years”; boosted by its “impeccable” and “good-humoured” service. A few diners discern “a lack of wow factor” in the cuisine, but more common is a hymn of praise to “simple ingredients combined and cooked to perfection every time”.
9. Dinings
Japanese restaurant in Marylebone
22 Harcourt St - W1
“Crazy combinations, truly awesome at times” continue to wow all who taste the “meticulous” sushi and other modernised Japanese dishes at this duo of venues – an “awkward and tired-looking basement” in Marylebone (under chef Tomonari Chiba) and a “much-cooler-than-the original” setting in Knightsbridge (under chef Masaki Sugisaki). “I’ve wandered all round the menu with friends, and each bite was terrific”.
10. Zoilo
Argentinian restaurant in Marylebone
9 Duke St - W1
“Much underrated”, this Argentinian tapas and wine bar behind Oxford Street is the perfect place to sample “steaks from the Pampas, cooked to perfection”. “Lunchtime specials are terrific value”, and the “mini beef burgers dripping with homemade chimichurri are worth a journey”.
