Park Chinois

Nearby on Berkeley Street, Park Chinois is one of the best restaurants in Mayfair for dim sum. Recreating the opulence of the 1930s, they actually have their own in-house theatre company who host live entertainment.

Restaurateur Alan Yau knows a thing or two about creating the right ambiance and it’s a very elegant place, with white tablecloths and gold leaf in abundance. Try the roast duck or book in for afternoon tea with live music. We enjoyed the lunchtime dim sum menu, available four days a week from Thursdays onwards.

The restaurant has a warm and inviting atmosphere, and the staff are attentive and helpful. Kitty Fisher’s is the perfect place to enjoy a delicious meal in Mayfair.

Theo Randall at the InterContinental

Theo Randall at the InterContinental is one of the top Italian restaurants in Mayfair. The dining room has a fresh new look but the quality of the produce remains unchanged.

We highly recommend the Saturday bottomless brunch, Festa in Famiglia. There is a huge array of dishes to choose from, accompanied by Aperol Spritz, Negroni or Prosecco for 1.5 hours from arrival.

Dinner at Theo Randall is also a fantastic culinary experience. Feast on Italian dishes such as pan-fried cuttlefish,, mushroom and ricotta ravioli and beef sirloin with porcini, mixed greens and roasted carrots.

Pair your meal with one of the many delicious Italian wines that the knowledgeable sommelier recommends. Most importantly, save room for the delicious Neapolitan rum and Amalfi lemon baba!

What’s more, Theo has a new cookbook, The Italian Pantry, which offers 100 different ways to use 10 cupboard staples at home. Beautifully presented, this cookbook is a great way to enjoy a taste of Italy at home.

Sartoria

This Mayfair restaurant has been going strong on Savile Row since 1998. Renowned for its Italian cuisine and attentive service, Sartoria has a cosy bar as well as a spacious dining room with comfy banquette seating.

In the evenings, the low light gives it an extra charm. The tables are sufficiently far apart that you can easily have a private business conversation or intimate date.

The food is equally impressive, with dishes inspired by Chef Patron Francesco Mazzei’s Calabrian roots. Classic Italian dishes such as fritto misto, vitello tonnato and tiramisu are complemented by contemporary dishes like crab salad served pinzimonio style and home cured black cod with liquorice. Save room for delicious desserts such as ginger chocolate tartlet with raspberries or an amaretto tiramisu.
