I will be in That London next weekend. It's my wife's birthday so I'd like to take her to a nice restaurant, hoping to escape for 100 quid or so. Fish place might be good. We'll be staying near Gloucester Road, but I suppose we can get around by that underground thingy they have down there. Any recommendations would be gratefully received!!
I remember seeing a thread about taking the wife up the Oxo tower, might be worth a look into that
We went to the real Greek last time we were there. If was fantastic.
Bocca de Lupo.
Good luck getting a table though.
[url= http://www.medlarrestaurant.co.uk/ ]Medlar[/url] isn't far from there, has a Michelin star, yet not that expensive (£100 should be doable with a bottle of wine). Not been yet but planning to.
[url= http://www.j-sheekey.co.uk/ ]J Sheekey[/url] is meant to be excellent for fish & seafood but is a bit of a trek (it's by Leicester Sq tube).
Else just get on toptable or london-eating and see what's well reviewed.
If you fancy lunch also would recommend meat liquor. Is just burger but what a burger. Cool place to.
I normally suggest the [url= http://www.thewolseley.com ]Wolseley[/url] for somewhere with a bit of sense of occasion, and decent food, and is really rather nice inside to boot.
Three courses and wine is doable for £100 or so.
I can highly recommend Quo Vadis on Dean St in Soho or St John's in Smithfield.. Or Polpo.

(there is simply no way of saying this without *somebody* s****ing so I'm not going to try...)
I've been to the Oxo Tower restaurant and it was really very good - wonderful food and the environment was fantastic. Do it.

Bocca di lupo or hawksmoor.
That is all 🙂
Hawksmore on regent st
Providores
Dabbous(although almost impossible to get a table)
Any of the Hawksmoors(the one on Air St does quite a bit of fish as well as the usual steaks)

Hibiscus
Gail's Kitchen
Hix Soho
Roast in Boro Market
River Cafe
J.Sheekey - I dont eat fish but I'm told it's pretty much the best fish place.
What about Bills near Hix ( near Rapha ) ?
Mon Plaisir, Covent Garden
Uno, Pimlico
Boisdales, Belgravia
Hunan, Pimlico
It's gotta be The lvy
It's really down to earth, good food, excellent service,
And half a chance of spotting a z list celeb 🙂
The Mrs will love it.
Will struggle to get a table but defo worth a try if you can be flexible on time
Tamarind in Mayfair for michelin star curry. Downside is you'll never enjoy a normal curry in the same way again.
If it's fish you're after it has to be J Sheekey.
Would second mon plaisir. Very good food and lovely place.
Pizza restaurants for your wife's birthday is a good idea.
Brilliant idea! Why not save some more cash and just get a domino's or pizza-hut 😯
Do they do a spam pizza?
