Lita Marylebone

London, UK

This all-day neighbourhood bistro’s culinary ambition is exceptional, having won a Michelin star within its very first year. Known for live fire cooking, here you’ll find seasonal Cornish turbot grilled whole over coals alongside Devon duck crown, finished in the brick oven with legs confited, and a pairing of foie gras seared over coals. Cold dishes are also crafted with confidence: wafer-thin tuna carpaccio arrives in careful tessellation; a lobster and tomato rosti pairs naturally with a pomelo-based Solara spritz. Cosy banquettes and restored wooden tables set against stuccoed walls complement the drama of the open kitchen, while a glass-enclosed walk-in cellar serves as much of a design statement as a source of inspiration. Look to the European-focused list within, which rises to the occasion with an impressive Burgundy selection and options available by the bottle and glass.
