Featured Marylebone Restaurants
1. Roux at the Landau, The Langham
British, Modern restaurant in marylebone
1c Portland Pl - W1
“All round 10/10!” – The re-launched Roux-branded operation in this “elegant” and “beautiful” dining room, a stone’s throw from Broadcasting House, jumped up several gears this year, as a lift in ratings coincided with its February 2018 re-launch in a new more “relaxed and simple” guise, incorporating a new, central dining counter and adopting a luxurious, ‘no-tablecloths’ style. “Not one thing is amiss” when it comes to the “exceptional” modern French cuisine (which now takes a more ingredient-led approach), service is exemplary, and the overall experience is “one of pure indulgence” (especially for a romantic occasion).
2. Palm Court, The Langham
Afternoon tea restaurant in Marylebone
1c Portland Place - W1
“The wonderful mirrors and damask decor and the pianist playing all make for an event” in the “very civilised” lounge of this pukka five-star, opposite Broadcasting House, which claims to be the birthplace of the sacred national ritual of afternoon tea. Options include a children’s tea in conjunction with Hamley’s (which includes a ‘free’ teddy bear): “we adults looked on enviously as the kids received jigsaw-cut sandwiches (as many as they wanted) and beautifully constructed small scones, cakes… although the adult tea was also made with marvellous attention to detail!”
3. Gaylord
Indian restaurant in Marylebone
79-81 Mortimer St - W1
This Fitzrovia veteran, “the ultimate traditional Indian”, still cooks dishes in a tandoor oven imported in 1966, and believed to be the first in the UK. The menu has been successfully modernised in recent years, with such choices as ‘paneer jalfrezi tacos’ giving “an Indian twist to the Mexican street-food favourite”.
4. Cocochan
Pan-Asian restaurant in Marylebone
38-40 James St - W1
Located in the heart of Marylebone, Cocochan offers contemporary Pan Asian Cuisine. Its extensive menu is created with a selection of light nibbles such as Sushi & Dim Sum to classic dishes drawn from Chinese, Japanese, Thai & Korean cuisines, as well as more unique delicacies fr...
5. 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.
6. Twist
Fusion restaurant in Marylebone
42 Crawford St - W1
“Eduardo Tuccillo’s relative newcomer [it’s three years old] is well-hidden in the depths of Marylebone” on a site that some reporters “date themselves” by recalling in its days as Garbo’s (long RIP). As with its long-departed predecessor, the “minimalist interior” is a fraction “bare and noisy”, but all reports acknowledge it as “a real winner”. “Plates are designed for sharing, tapas style” and “if you are a proper foodie, you will love his phenomenally creative Italo-Spanish cooking with some Asian-fusion to surprise as well”. “It’s in my neighbourhood but I’ve only just discovered it: glad I did!”
7. Donostia
Spanish restaurant in Marylebone
10 Seymour Pl - W1
“Perfect, high-quality Spanish food”, “well presented by personal and engaging staff” win only the highest praise for this little but “really lively” and “fun” pintxos and tapas bar near Marble Arch (which, as well as a counter by the open kitchen, also has a couple of tables at the back). “Possibly a bit noisy” is the closest any reporter comes to a criticism. Sibling to nearby Lurra, it is named after the Basque for San Sebastian, the region’s culinary mecca.
8. Jikoni
Indian restaurant in Marylebone
21 Blandford Street - W1
Ravinder Bhogal’s “magic touch with flavour” helps create “wonderful and interesting dishes” at her Marylebone yearling (whose cuisine reflects the chef-patron’s mixed heritage with flavours from East Africa, the Middle East, Asia and Britain). With its “informal service” and “cosy” style it’s “a perfect venue for culinary exploration”.
9. Texture
Scandinavian restaurant in Marylebone
34 Portman St - W1
“Unbelievable… everything was magnificent!” – Aggi Sverrisson’s “more-than-first-class” venture (now over ten years old) is a showcase for his truly “superb” Scandi-inspired cooking paired with an outstanding wine selection, too. “Service is occasionally hit and miss but mostly good”. Top Tip – don’t miss the fish tasting menu here.
10. The Landmark, Winter Garden
British, Modern restaurant in Marylebone
222 Marylebone Rd - NW1
With its palm trees and soaring, glass-roofed atrium, it’s not hard to see why this beautiful and “very relaxing” space features in lists of London’s most Instagrammable locations. Its other top features include a luxurious Sunday brunch buffet with ‘bottomless’ champagne, and plush afternoon tea.
