Meraki

➤ 80-82 Great Titchfield StreetW1W 7QT, London, United Kingdom

Carte • Full • Greek • Bar-lounge • Mediterranean

"I've been there a few times when I like the big food very much! Greek, but still don't slander as many others, because everything is very tasteful! salt baked fish especially mentioned! inexpensive for a seabas but great! the main area in the entrance has tight packed tables and lacks in any personality, while the rear tunnel looks great. the attention to the removal of used harness from the waiters was quite a problem and they seemed stretched without a smile over their boobs. will go again with better expectations, as I do well to spread over meraki to all and see if I am right in my views."

Champagne Route

Carte • Wine • French • Brunch • Drinks

"Tucked away from the road in a pedestrian square between office blocks (it was a little difficult to find), a signpost led us to a delightful square with a ground fountain feature, where children were splashing about in swimming cistumes on a sunny Friday evening. This was a chic boutique size restaurant whose apparentlt basic menu did not appear to celebrate the true quality of its food, which was outstanding. Each course was delicious and melted in our mouths. It was very quiet (few customers, surprisingly), with just some gentle background music and a perfect setting for a romantic evening out."

The Sichuan

➤ 14 City Road, EC1Y 2AA, London, United Kingdom

Carte • Asian • Salad • Chinese • Sichuan

---

"This is an exceptional restaurant that specializes in Sichuan cuisine. Contrary to many beliefs, this is not always spicy hot! We ordered a good variety of dishes and they were all absolutely fantastic. As we do not live in London, this place is on our priority list when we make the trip. The food is incredible, and over the past decade has actually made us come to London just for their unique dishes."

Ops Wines

➤ Unit 128 Druid StreetGreater SE1 2HH, London, United Kingdom

Carte • Full • Tapas • Bar-lounge • Mediterranean

"we had an unforgettable evening at OPS wines, the wee was phenomenal, the eating was delicious (we would highly recommend the flame chouriço) and the service was impeccable. we had been lucky to have met the owner pedro who took time to talk to us about his incredible journey to open OPS wines and recommend the perfect wee to our preferences. the weebar itself has a very special atmosphere, which it lies in one of the arches and has a wonderfully rustic and intimate atmosphere. perfect for a date night (as we had), but we also saw a birthday party and various other group meetings. we will definitely be back here!"

"Just a hop, skip and jump from the bustle of Covent Garden this is a really lovely independent pizza restaurant. It’s a warm and inviting space with a genuinely friendly team and the pizzas are delicious (and great value)."
