It seems that Gordo has licked his wounds after his restaurant empire nearly imploded and is now ready to rise like the proverbial phoenix. The restaurateur believes he has identified two brands that have the potential for London and nationwide roll-out, according to Big Hospitality. And the brands he has alighted on as his ‘next […]
It seems that this summer outside is the place to be. Perhaps restaurants are taking a leaf out of the Ivy Chelsea Garden’s book (which opened in March to many oohs and aahs from not just the Sloane set but Marina O’Laughlin and Grace Dent too) as venue after venue launches its own verdant outdoor […]
Last year Gordon Ramsay showed his nostalgic side by snapping up the site of Aubergine – the restaurant that launched his career 20 years ago. Now the f-bombing chef has reopened the venue as an outpost of his maze Grill – the “utterly forgettable” Mayfair spot that inspired this comment in our 2015 survey; “the bill stunned […]
We don’t want to fan the flames of what is frankly a melba toast thin story, but a few words on this supposed ‘fracas’ between Jamie Oliver and Gordon Ramsay. The two chefs have apparently engaged in a war of words with the shouty one telling the Mockney one off for not going to his […]
Mark Sargeant (of Folkestone’s Rocksalt and London’s Plum + Spilt Milk fame) has been brought in to revamp the menu at Trafalgar Square’s Strand Dining Rooms. The all-day restaurant, launched by restaurateur Mark Harris last year, received some pretty scathing reviews from the likes of Giles Coren “the chicken wasn’t fit to bait a mousetrap” and […]

The results are now in from our annual survey of restaurant-goers – one of the most comprehensive in the UK – and we can reveal which London restaurants are hot (and which are not). This year saw unprecedented growth in the net number of new restaurants opening in the capital (101), beating the previous 2006 […]
Just off Regent Street, a handy brasserie-style operation serving thoroughly competent but rather unremarkable dishes at prices seemingly inflated by association with proprietor Gordon Ramsay. You never quite know what to expect at a Gordon Ramsay establishment. Within a mile or so of each other, you can have places which are very good (Pétrus, say), and […]
Gordon Ramsay today (10 November) launched his first ‘heart-of-the-West-End’ operation, Heddon Street Kitchen. Modelled on City outpost Bread Street Kitchen – not, it must be said, much favoured by Harden’s reporters – it is located on the former site of a Living Room bar and restaurant, just off Regent Street. Heddon Street, the Gordon Ramsay group’s 13th […]
