Named after a character from Mozart’s The Magic Flute, this flamboyant restaurant continues the operatic theme with ten individually styled opera boxes, velvet drapes, theatrical props and other colourful frippery. Food is Mediterranean-Turkish, but the big draw here are the opera and string quartet performances on Monday and Sunday evenings, and Sunday lunchtimes, featuring singers and musicians from the nearby ENO and Royal Opera House, along with students and rising stars. The three-course Opera menu (£26.50) offers the likes of boreks for starters, followed by roast duck with plum sauce, slow-cooked shank of lamb or vegetarian crêpes, then baked pumpkin in spicy syrup or fresh fruit; there’s also an à la carte menu.
