"Verdict: Gymkhana is one of the best Indian restaurants in the city. The upscale Mayfair spot specialises in impressive dishes that live long in the mind but less so in our takeaway boxes. We give it until the bus journey home for you to have polished off the last of a wild muntjac biryani. Reservations are released two months in advance, so set your alarm for 6am that day. Your best bet is planning the best London day off known to lamb chop-lovers and opt for one of the weekday lunchtime bookings. If you’re really struggling, sister spots—Bibi, Brigadiers, and Ambassadors Clubhouse—usually have more availability." - jake missing, sinead cranna, rianne shlebak, heidi lauth beasley
