I'm going to visit mid-year and I'm considering the Ivy. I think I'd like to avoid Gordon Ramsay as his average price for a dinner is 100 pounds.
Is Pasha good?
Please give me some recommendations.

Well, I've been experiencing some good ones with a friend... cos as French people we always tend to go for the good food and wine! ;oP
Here is the list (mainly French though... but food is beautiful!)
Criterion on Piccadilly (I go there at least once every 1-2 month!)

Le Pont de la Tour, V nice for seafood and that great view on Tower Bridge
http://www.conran-restaurants.co.uk/restaurants/le_pont/home
Trinity, nice new stylish "Gatro Pub"/Restaurant where the food is V innovative and nice

Bleeding Heart, Typical French restaurant; includes 4 restaurants but highly recommend the Bistro which is the best value for money

And if you like Moroccan food; here is the place to go:
http://www.bogayo.com/ on Old Street (in the "trendy" Shoreditch area)
Just around the corner from my office and it's like my gran-ma cooking !!! That says it all!
Have a good stay in London!

Hey
Depends on what you want to pay, what kind of food you like etc.
That said - my hearty 100% recommendation would be La Trompette in Chiswick - it's 35 quid fixed-price dinner, the food is better than Gordon Ramsay at Claridges, the service is flawless and the wine list is very reasonable.
The Ivy is really nice too - but in terms of food it's actually quite simple, the signature dish at the Ivy is Cottage Pie and they also do bangers and mash - it's just the celebrity thing that makes it so popular.
Check out www.london-eating.co.uk - excellent reviews on that site.
Happy eating!

Hi, I went to the Ivy just before Xmas and thought it was very good, and I managed to book only a few days before!! This was for a Thursday night though, they say need to book 6 months in advance but I rang up and they had a couple of tables free.
For 2 of us who had starter, main and a bottle of wine came to £75, which I didn't think was bad at all, was expecting it to be a lot more expensive

Alistair Little on Greek St for the a l. a. carte treament, small position, decor interior of reason trouble-free besides the undeniable fact that the food is impressive and the employees were mind-blowing. For the funds, Mem and Laz, basically off top st in highbury (Theres a pub suggested as the bull, on the nook, that is about 4 doorways up from there on the otherside of the line. Mediterranean food, fairly solid sparkling bread, continually fairly busy.

London has the best Indian restaurents! There are many of them and most are reasonably priced. Also, look for chinese and other ethnic places. Avoid traditional English food at all costs !

i recommend that you go to "Banners" in North London Crouch End. great food makes it famous in the trendy media type area. also great atmosphere, dark and cosy, great music, if thats what u like. it was a favourite for the likes of Bob Dylan who apparently scoffed there on a regular basis.
