Soho is the glorious epicentre of London’s incredible culinary scene

There’s honestly nowhere in the world like Soho. The haunt of poets, gangsters, trendsetters and many a louche genius, the seedy, sleazy and impossibly romantic heart of London’s West End is also home to loads of great independent shops, cafés, bars and, most importantly, restaurants. Its culinary diversity has been fuelled by centuries of immigration and cultural cross-pollination. From rustic French fare to Mediterranean small plates and tasty tapas, here is Time Out’s list of our absolute favourite Soho restaurants. Whether you fancy a slap-up meal or are just in the market for a mid-town pitstop, we have you covered.

RECOMMENDED: Here are London’s best restaurants.

Old Soho looms large at Quo Vadis. This elegantly bohemian members’ club heaves with history, despite the fact that its public dining room received a thorough makeover at the start of 2023. Previously a dark and moody mystery, with the restaurant’s floorspace doubled, this once rather poky room is now wonderfully welcoming. Eat alongside glamorous wine-swilling pals and oyster-slurping folk who look like artists – even if they’re not – who feasting on congenial chef Jeremy Lee’s indulgent takes on classic British food.

Evoking the traditional feel of a Japanese udon-ya, this casual eatery wouldn’t be out of place in Tokyo. A blond-wood counter dominates the long narrow space (chefs on one side, diners on the other) but it still feels spacious and airy. And there’s now a diddy table out the front, too. Koya classics such as udon with mushrooms and walnut miso (kinoko) are available here, as is breakfast – try the ‘English breakfast’ udon: an earthy broth topped with fried egg, bacon and shiitake mushrooms.

In little over a decade the French pleasure palace that is Brasserie Zédel has become a London landmark. Long gone is Zedel’s famed two courses for under a tenner deal, but the prix fixe menu remains, it’s just a little more prix-y than before. That said, two courses for £16.95 (or three for £19.75) remains decent value for a zingy mound of dijon-drizzled carottes râpées followed by the house speciality of steak haché – another mound, this time of chopped steak with peppercorn sauce and perfect fries. Slam a creme brulee on the end and you’ve got yourself a fabulous three course dinner for under £20, a real rarity in Soho.

Though based on Taiwanese street-food dishes, Bao’s kitchen really pushes those boundaries. The restaurant’s name derives from ‘gua bao’: fluffy white steamed buns, in this case filled with braised pork, sprinkled with peanut powder. Other sorts of bao are more slider-like. But buns are only half the story. Xiao chi (small eats) are given equal prominence, and the drinks list (well-matched beers, chilled foam tea, glorious peanut milk, and ten-year-aged oolong teas) is especially distinguished.

Head to the top floor of this old-school boozer to the teeny dining room, which is decked out with black-and-white pictures of salty old Soho geezers. The daily-changing menu – cooked up by Neil Borthwick (ex-head chef of The Merchant’s Tavern) – is crammed with seasonal French and British fare. It all tastes brilliant – gutsy, stripped back and practically cutting-edge.

A small ‘modern Filipino’ restaurant from the same group behind Kentish Town’s culty Panadera Bakery and Mamasons Dirty Ice Cream, Donia offer a brief but masterful menu of rousing, flavour-packed gastronomy. Think prawn and pork dumplings with white crab, thick-cut sea bream kinilaw, massive lobster ginataan with creamy coconut and pumpkin sauce and sensational lamb shoulder caldereta pie.

London loves Sichuanese food. The central Chinese cooking style, famous for its copious use of dried chillies, show-stopping red broths, pungent garlic and mouth-numbing peppercorns. Barshu, opened in 2006, was one of the first well-known spots to offer this singular cuisine to Londoners. Recently, the two-story Soho venue has enjoyed an invigorating glow up and zhuzhed its menu with a few new dishes. But it’s very much business as usual. And business at Barshu is good.

A proper Soho institution that’s open seven days a week, 22 hours a day, from 7am to 5am. Established in 1949 by Lou and Caterina Polledri, this little neon-lit family-run Italian café has been passed down through generations and serves a damn fine cuppa joe. You’ll still find a lot of the original fixtures, from the red-and-white formica and tiled floor, to the Gaggia espresso machine. If you’re lucky, you might even catch a lively Italian football match blaring on the TV.

Home of the best prawn tempura hand roll in the city, this Winnett Street sushi joint is so humble you could walk past it and never realise it was there. When marking up the dishes you’d like on the paper menu, don’t hold back; as well as those hand rolls, there are street-food snacks, sushi and sashimi.

Gauthier Soho is all about sumptuous, rarified eating: go for cutting-edge French dishes, served in hushed surroundings. And although classic fine dining hasn't always welcomed vegans, its chef Alexis Gauthier is a bit of a pioneer on this front, with a long-established all-vegan menu available for plant-based diners.

This light-filled Dean Street branch of Barrafina serves up excellent tapas from a high marble counter, from which you can watch chefs dole out dazzlers such as oozing tortillas and milk-fed lamb sweetbreads. Pick from a knockout list of Spanish wines and sherries to go with.

This modern Mediterranean spot will knock your socks off. To set the scene, the decor is inspired by the leafy, rustic courtyards of Italy, Spain and the like, so you’ll find golden-washed concrete walls and terracotta floor tiles. There are no beating rays overhead, but the sizzling, open-flame grill provides a somewhat balmy temperature. While the concept of using quality British produce to create sun-kissed, Southern European dishes is fairly standard stuff these days, Firebird’s flavour combinations and sheer finesse is a novel thing.

A small, unshowy restaurant that’s made a name for itself with a short but perfectly formed menu and easy-going conviviality. Dishes are seasonal and it’s excellent value for money. Adept, friendly staff are a further plus. It’s added ‘Roman style’ pizza to the menu, along with added outdoor seating as part of the area’s pedestrianisation, and tables can be booked in advance.

Bebe Bob is the latest offspring of Bob Bob Ricard, and you’ll find it a mere skip away from the original’s Golden Square-adjacent location. Here rotisserie chicken in hyper elegant surroundings is the order of the day. ‘Any main course the customer wants as long as it is chicken or chicken’, says the menu, with the options being a whole Vendée bird from Western France, or one from Landes in Gascony. There’s a brief but well thought-out selection of sides, with a pungent sauteed kale with garlic, earthy truffled cauliflower cheese and golden french fries. Wash it all down with some champers and enjoy the glitzy surroundings.

When the then-twenty-something head chef Angelo Sato opened Humble Chicken in the bones of the original Barrafina in 2021, people were tripping over themselves to sing the praises of his cosy Soho yakitori joint. A couple of years down the line and Sato has shifted his own goalposts. He's now moved on from acclaimed and juicy Japanese chicken skewers to Humble Chicken 2.0 which offers an omakase of 13 immaculate east Asian-rooted dishes for a not cheap, but not extortionate £115. It spans snacks, oysters, dumplings, sashimi, and, of course, chicken. Impressive stuff.

Three-quarters of a century after opening its deli, Soho’s Lina Stores has launched this proper restaurant. Go hard on the pasta: al dente handrolled pici pasta noodles, gnudi ricotta and semolina dumplings, squid-ink spaghetti and agnolotti filled pasta. The best seats in the house are at the street-level counter, or head downstairs to the intimate trattoria-esque space. Small portions make this the ideal place to grab a quick bite before moving on.

Luxe, imaginative takes on Sri Lankan dishes, made with responsibly sourced British ingredients. Enjoy gigantic Ceylonese-spiced prawns, and a crab kothu roti with Devon white spider-crab meat. There are hoppers, too, delicate, lacy pancakes with a rich yolk nestled inside. Paradise is unquestionably cool, unquestionably innovative. If you want to immerse your tastebuds with sweet, buttery, complex flavours, it’s hard to beat.

As elegant as a Korean BBQ opposite the Coach and Horses on Greek Street can be. The grill, operated by buttons at the side of the table, is the star attraction here, cooking up curled wafers of beef brisket, a marinated blanket of short rib and, best of all, a prime slab of rib eye. Each piece of meat was seared, fussed over, trimmed, flipped and lovingly squished. Everything is served with its own punchy dipping sauce. Nothing disappoints.

Lavish, ostentatious, excessive: in other words, a whole lotta fun, Bob Bob Ricard is an outlandish one-off for those who want to impress hot dates (or ‘valued clients’). Louche roaring twenties decor sets the scene for an indulgent menu of international comfort food with a Russian slant – vareniki (potato dumplings), fish pie, chicken kiev etc. Just press the champagne buzzer if you’re running low on bubbly.

This boho-chic Persian joint, from the group behind Bao and Hoppers, may be small but it still packs a punch. Take a seat with views of the open kitchen and plump for one of the innovative grills. Our favourite is the poussin: its charred, blackened edges offset its chilli, red pepper, sumac and garlic marinade. Berenjak is vibrant and atmospheric, with eager-to-please staff, and a bill that won’t kill.

Jason Atherton’s Michelin-starred Soho enclave is one of his more frenetic outposts – a sprawling dining room with exposed brick walls, traditional whitewashed copper ceilings and a menu of reimagined modern cooking delivered by a profoundly skilled brigade. Sharing jars, steaks and sundaes sit alongside pitch-perfect dishes such as roasted Cornish hake with aubergine, capers and bone-marrow butter. Savvy Soho drinkers use a separate entrance to access the Blind Pig cocktail bar upstairs.

The sequel to Ben Chapman’s original Thai barbecue joint Smoking Goat is a slam dunk. Sit up at the stainless-steel counter and watch the chefs stoke and tame the fires to produce authentic-tasting northern Thai dishes, baked in clay pots over the charcoal barbecue. It’s pure theatre for food lovers, and the dishes boast memorably intense flavours – from the dry spice rubs used on the fresher-than-fresh fish, to the lashings of ginger and spice in the beef-neck curry.

Maresco is the third, and his debut central London spot following Crouch End’s Bar Esteban and Stoke Newington’s Escocesa.

This Sri Lankan stunner may have a chilled aesthetic, with its vintage/modern interiors and focus on street-food dishes. However, it’s from the team behind Gymkhana, Bao and Bubbledogs, so you can bet your bottom rupee that a slick experience awaits. The eponymous savoury pancakes are crisp and chewy in all the right places, the karis are full of flavour, and starters such as goat roti are unmissable.

On the ground floor of new members’ club 1 Warwick, this contemporary British bistro and all-day dining spot celebrates its Edwardian heritage and architecture. Nessa is so named in tribute to Vanessa Bell, the English painter, designer, sister of Virginia Woolf and core member of the proto-hippy Bloomsbury Group. Chef Tom Cenci’s indulgent but accessible cuisine celebrates seasonal British ingredients with the likes of celeriac carbonara, spiced bulgar wheat-stuffed savoy cabbage, and juicy mega-meatballs of lamb and pork belly.

The buzz is as important as the food at Jacob Kenedy and Victor Hugo’s enduringly popular restaurant. Dine at the bar and you’re in for a fun time – especially if you sit by the window, where you can watch the occasional celeb swan into the dining room. The menu is a (slightly confusing) jumble of small and large plates celebrating the best of artisan regional Italian cooking – all supported by an enticing selection of cocktails and an impressive all-Italian wine list.

Here’s a delightful distraction in the heart of Soho – a French fantasy complete with stripped furniture, objects d’art and a menu that’s as Gallic as ‘La Marseillaise’. Whether you fancy the oozing camembert or a mighty helping of braised lamb shoulder with anchovies and soubise sauce (made from onions), the cooking is all about fine ingredients and bourgeois sensibilities. And the outdoor seating du jour only adds to the overall effect.

Like its sister restaurant Barrica, this is a place where you get proper tapas-sized dishes, so you can really get stuck into the menu. Copita sidesteps the usual clichés in favour of less familiar ideas such as smoked anchovies with pork crackling – no wonder it’s popular with the post-work crowd and can get fairly cacophonous. Thankfully, service is always fast and friendly, making this a real find in the heart of Soho.

Out of the same stable as Salt Yard, Dehesa and Opera Tavern, Ember Yard builds on the strengths of its fellows, using Italian as well as Spanish tapas-style dishes and techniques as inspiration.

By anyone’s standards, it’s pretty punchy for a South Asian restaurant to open next door to a Dishoom. Truthfully though, Kolamba is a very different beast: smaller and more sophisticated. Sri Lankan signatures include fish cutlets – aka spiced mini fishcakes with deep-fried coats – fiery patties and monkfish curry. Best of all: the creamy and comforting cucumber curry. With serious atmosphere and style, this stands up to its neighbour for sure.

Mountain – the first Soho restaurant from Brat's Tomos Parry – boasts an expansive, industrial-chic dining room and Basque-ish food which is big on narrative. The sobrasada is made on an organic farm in Mallorca. Meat, sourced somewhere equally lovely, is butchered on-site downstairs. The butter has a backstory more compelling than the protagonists of most Netflix dramas. When it’s good it’s excellent and Parry is an exceptional talent; his cooking is all about rusticity, simplicity and heritage. However, mains veer on the bad side of adequate, which doesn't quite cut it when you're dropping this much dough on dinner.

Marugame Udon was founded in Japan in 2000, and in 2021 it opened its first branch in London, at Liverpool Street. This Soho location serves up steaming udon noodles, rice bowls and an overwhelming variety of tempuras, as well as some omusubi (rice in a seaweed wrap), desserts and fun drinks. In the middle of central London, Marugame Udon’s USP is that it is incredibly, incomparably cheap. The noods start as low as £3.95 for a kamaage (udon in kama water with a fish dashi on the side), and the absolute most you can spend is £12.45 on a large pork tonkotsu. And we mean large.

Though its food certainly passes muster, it’s this restaurant’s concept that earns it bucket-list status (and you won’t hear us saying that very often). Hidden behind/beneath its sex-shop façade, La Bodega Negra continues to befuddle first-timers – especially as the ‘shop assistants’ play along even after you’ve worked up the courage to enter. The dining room is so dark, sultry and downright Mexican that you half-expect Salma Hayek to sashay past. Order some cocktails, ignore the prices and let the good times roll.

Nopi’s chef-owner is Yotam Ottolenghi, who struck culinary gold with his game-changing Ottolenghi cafés. This is a more formal, more grown-up take on proceedings that shares the same look and ethos – right down to the inventive fusion of Middle Eastern cuisine with bold forays into the Mediterranean and Asia. Nopi isn’t the greatest bargain in town, and two-hour table slots are strictly enforced – but the wide-ranging wine list has some excellent (if pricy) selections to wash down the decent food.

Hotel restaurants are tricky characters – some can be quite forgettable, while others manage to completely outshine the hotel. And somehow, Broadwick Soho's in-house spot Dear Jackie manages to do both. It’s pleasingly kitsch, flamboyant and fabulous, like a more sophisticated version of the Big Mamma restaurants, though the short Italian menu gets rather overshadowed by the highly memorable decor. That’s not to say that the flavours don’t pack a punch, they really do, but some swing a bit too hard. And let’s be real, this place isn’t really about the food; it’s all about the vibe and that it gets pitch perfect.

You know what they say: practice makes perfect. And Harry Edmeades, aka Señor Ceviche, has had plenty of practice. In 2012, after a stint at Lima’s renowned ceviche restaurant El Mercado, the 25-year-old British chef came back to London and started Don Ceviche, a pop-up with just five ceviches (raw fish cured in citrus juice). Then he spent another two years perfecting and expanding the menu before launching this ‘proper’ restaurant.
