For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).

What the Newspaper Critics are saying

The Times

Giles Coren enjoyed his visit to “the newest and most gorgeous restaurant” from Limor and Amir Chen (who have Delaminas in Marylebone and Shoreditch), this one set in “a lovely old Covent Garden house full of mazy staircases and nooky dining rooms washed through with London winter light. A fresh and friendly place to spend the last Friday of half-term with our children, but no doubt a sexy night-time spot when the sun goes down.”

The menu features eastern Mediterranean/Israeli food of “insane colourfulness”, with contrasting flavours that work beautifully together, although Giles reckoned that dishes including butterflied sea bass with chilli date molasses and grilled chicken with sweet potato “leaned towards the sugary rather than salty end of the spectrum”.
