The 25 Best Restaurants In London - London - The Infatuation
"Whether you're a Beckham or a bemused tourist, Gymkhana is a certified London landmark. It’s a Mayfair restaurant dressed up in jade green glad rags, but look past the marble and hunting trophies, and you’ll find some of the city's very best Indian food. The deliriously creamy, Hermès orange-hued prawn curry results in Kashmiri chilli tingles, the tandoori lamb chops sizzle in all of their garam masala splendour, and the obscenely fragrant wild muntjac biryani arrives on its own tableside throne. Gymkhana is still one of London’s toughest reservations to secure, but it’s worth setting an alarm for and honestly, there’s something wonderful about counting down the days to your meet cute with those chops’ fragrant masala coating. 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, rianne shlebak, sinead cranna, heidi lauth beasley
