Flesh & Buns Oxford Circus

You'll find Flesh & Buns Oxford Circus perched on Berners Street and lined with golden lucky cats, sleek leather furnishings and dangling foliage from the ceiling. It comes from the masterminds behind popular ramen spot Bone Daddies and features 'press for pisco' as one of its fun quirks. It's based around casual Japanese izakayas and serves delicious sashimi, maki, and meats from the grill such as olive-fed British wagyu, miso aubergine and smoked pork rib. Each is served with two steamed buns and you can add extra sides like tenderstem broccoli or grilled cucumber salad too.

Bricco e Bacco

Bringing the art of butchery right to your table, Bricco e Bacco is a premium steak restaurant with a Sicilian twist. This was created by a family of butchers in Palermo, who opened their first restaurant in Monreale in 2003 - and have only grown since then.

They use the finest cuts of meat from around the world, paired with bold Sicilian flavours to create a unique dining experience. Tuck into the likes of dry-aged ribeye, chicken spatchcock or spaghetti puttanesca, all while admiring the bold red surroundings. Plus, they offer a set lunch menu of three courses for just £26.

Bloomsbury St. Lounge

🎄✨ Christmas Day Buffet in Bloomsbury ✨🎄£70pp and 1 other offer

Found near the British Museum in the far south of Fitzrovia, Bloomsbury St. Lounge is a Mediterranean-inspired restaurant tucked away inside Radisson Blu hotel. The swish space is known for serving up amazing small plates spanning the like of chilli and garlic prawns, habanero-spiced chicken, and aubergine with crumbled feta and gome. Otherwise, there's also a selection of British classics like fish and chips or burgers, as well as signature cocktails and white sangria to wash it all down.

Arros QD

Fronting super swish interiors, open fire cooking and some of the best Valencian cookery in London, ArrosQD is the perfect place to settle down for a meal. Choose from their variety of tasting menus, which include the likes of truffle potato souffle, rabbit paella and octopus leg.

RAI

RAI is a sleek, modern Japanese restaurant just moments away from Tottenham Court Road station. The beautiful space is filled with cherry blossom trees and dark furnishings, and there's even an omakase counter that seats only 10 people at a time, perfect for an intimate meal.

Tuck into tasting menus from £59 per person, promising multiple courses prepared by chef Padam. Think grilled duck with poached figs, hand-picked oysters, prawn tempura rolls and so much more.

LIMA FITZROVIA

Lunch & Threatre Menu - 2 courses £27 - Mon to Thurs: 12 — 14:45 | 17 — 17:30 Fri & Sat: 12 — 17:30

There's a renewed buzz around LIMA Fitzrovia, thanks to the arrival of Head Chef Diego Recarte, who's ushering in an elegant new era for this much-loved Peruvian restaurant. His menu is a polished blend of classics and boundary-pushing plates: A5 Wagyu tiradito layered with crispy potato and ají panca; mussels from St Austell Bay served on golden toast under a cushion of oyster mayo and guanciale; and buttery Isle of Skye scallops brightened with beef fat persillade and seasonal greens.

The signatures remain - ceviche clasico, lomo saltado - but it's the larger dishes that show Recarte's ambition: Kimchi-kissed Cornish octopus, a thoughtful catch of the day with almond cream, and Ibérico pluma paired with roasted summer cabbage and plum chimichurri. To drink, expect pisco to take the spotlight, alongside spritzes built for long evenings and a considered wine list that mirrors the kitchen's expressive style.

YOPO

If you're after The Mandrake's restaurant in Fitzrovia, then you're bound to have heard of the jungle-cum-Gothic chic that is YOPO. This fine dining eatery is known for its 'Grammable interiors and oh-so-tasty menu that fuses European and South American dishes, including scallops, tostadas and more.

Greyhound Cafe

What started out as a menswear brand in the 80s progressed into one of Thailand's most popular restaurants, and can now be found in Fitzrovia. Greyhound Cafe is a homage to Thai dining, done with a contemporary flair; we recommend the hot oil pork knuckle, an Asian take on a traditional German dish.

ROVI

ROVI has been setting Fitzrovia alight with vegetables, fire and a touch of fermentation magic since 2018, and it's better than ever. The kitchen still leans into sustainability with enviable ease, turning out seasonal dishes that make the most of whatever the team's Wolves Lane farm sends in that very morning.

Nothing here is wasted or ordinary. That surplus crème fraîche from the pink fir potatoes? It reappears in a clarified mango cocktail. Those unforgettably crisp aubergine tops? They're fashioned from deli offcuts. It's food that's as clever as it is delicious.

Pied à Terre

Pied à Terre is bringing Michelin star dining to Fitzrovia, with its blend of seasonal and British ingredients. For an extra special treat, book in for the 10-course tasting menu (also available in vegetarian and vegan form), with everything from smoked quail through to Orkney scallops.
