VyTA Restaurant & Cocktail Bar, Covent Garden - (Near Westminster, london)

Nel Kerai Absolutely fantastic food. Every dish had a twist with different inventive sauces providing a great variety of rich flavours, without heavy creaminess. Ice cream cone chaat and candy floss dessert delivered playfulness and originality. Grand yet homely interior with nostalgic memorabilia giving it a comfortable feel. Service was 10/10 with food orders arriving quickly and our waiter was very attentive and informative. A memorable celebratory experience.

Mira Shah Six Clerks is such a cosy and inviting spot inside The Law Society, The food was absolutely incredible. Chef Scott Dineen created a five course tasting menu celebrating British spring produce, and every dish was a hit. We started with London sourdough and burnt onion butter - simple, rich, and the perfect way to begin. Then came “Down the Rabbit Hole”, a beautifully done pressed rabbit terrine with lemon verbena emulsion and black olive - so delicate and full of flavour. Next up, “Eggs ‘n’ Soldiers”, which was hands down one of my favourites. A creamy Lancashire bomb custard, firecracker jam, a soft pheasant egg, and Wye Valley asparagus - comforting but elevated. “Mary Had a Little Lamb”—perfectly cooked Romney Marsh lamb, with smoked belly curds, morels, wild garlic, and kombu dashi. Every element worked together beautifully. “The Crossover”, a clever play on a hot cross bun with sherry caramel, whipped Baron Bigod cheese, and black truffle - sweet, savoury, and completely addictive. And finally, dessert: “The Humble Carrot” - a gorgeous mix of carrot cake, ice cream, pickled walnuts, orange marmalade, and dill granita. Unexpected, refreshing, and the perfect way to end. The whole experience was thoughtful, balanced, and absolutely delicious. Highly recommend.

Vinicius Santos A Well-Executed Pre-Theatre Experience at Cora Pearl The décor is relaxed and intimate, complemented by soft background music that creates a warm, understated atmosphere. Expectations were high, especially as Cora Pearl has been ranked by the Michelin Guide as the best pre-theatre dining spot in London. We visited as a family of four and arrived about ten minutes before our pre-theatre reservation; our table was already ready, which was a great start. My parents both chose the three-course pre-theatre menu: potatoes with cod roe to start, pork steak for the main, and the After Eight crémeux for dessert. I had the butternut squash with coconut cream as a starter—the cream was thicker than I expected, but still very rich and delicious—followed by the wild sea bass with Jerusalem artichoke velouté, salsify, and bergamot. Overall, the food was excellent: well executed, well balanced, and thoughtfully put together. We shared a bottle of Riesling and I ordered the Cheeky Peach cocktail, as the restaurant is known for its cocktails. Both were enjoyable, though not particularly memorable. The Parmesan fries, however, were outstanding and easily a highlight of the meal. The staff were attentive and friendly throughout, although service did slow down a little during busier moments. That said, it didn’t detract significantly from an otherwise very enjoyable pre-theatre experience.

David Stephens These are my views based on my experience The moment we arrived we could see this is a well run restaurant. Our drinks and meals were excellent, good portions and well priced. All the team were polite and helpful. The only let down were the toilets, they need to be checked more often, I used them once and it was a mess, tissues allover the floor and wash bowls. My wife said the same about the ladies toilets too. I did notice the downstairs dinning area, so bigger gatherings are well catered for. Thank you all at Cote, we will be back.

Sam Scalabrini Lucia was our server and she was great! Everything was delicious. We were stuffed by the end of our tea experience. I especially loved the scones and cakes!! The food was well worth the price.
