13 Best Restaurants Near Oxford Circus For A Post-Shopping Meal - London - The Infatuation

"This chic-looking Italian spot on Great Portland Street is a feel-good place where the pasta dishes are satisfying and ideal for post-shopping fuel. And you’ll almost certainly be able to get a last-minute table. During the day, it’s a bright, inviting space. In the evening, the dining room turns moody, quietly buzzy, with lighting that’ll make everyone five times more attractive. There’s a good selection of dishes too, so bring a group when someone wants a stand-up margherita and someone else wants to go fancy with the truffle ravioli. " - Heidi Lauth Beasley, Jake Oliver, Rianne Shlebak

"Oxford Circus can often feel like a hard place to find somewhere good to eat.

During the day it’s a bright, inviting space and come evening, the dining room turns moody and quietly buzzy, with lighting that makes everyone five times more attractive.

We had an amazing evening at Faros in London! The food was absolutely delicious — the truffle pasta was rich, creamy, and packed with flavor, easily one of the best we’ve ever had. The ravioli were equally impressive, perfectly cooked and beautifully presented. You can really taste the quality of the ingredients and the care put into each dish. The drinks were also a highlight of the evening — creative, well-balanced, and served with style. The atmosphere was warm and vibrant, and the staff were incredibly friendly and attentive without being overbearing. Faros exceeded our expectations in every way. We’ll definitely be back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience in London!

Traditional Italian cuisine. The pizza is made exactly right, with thin crust and soft cheese melting in your mouth, the pepperoni is good quality with strong flavor. The service is also impeccable- Ruby is very attentive. The atmosphere is cozy and nostalgic with good sound tracks in the background. We will definitely come back again.

We had a lovely family dinner at Faros London this evening. Although there was a small issue during the meal, it was quickly addressed by the management in a professional and efficient manner. I truly appreciate how responsive and helpful the team was. The food was absolutely delicious, and the overall service was great. Special thanks to the management and staff for turning things around so smoothly and making our family gathering a pleasant experience.

Came to Faros in February. This is the best meal I’ve ever had. Food was exceptional, and the staff were more than happy to give me as much basil as my heart desired (which is an absolutely obscene amount—much more basil was brought after this photo was taken). Service was incredible. Chef and his son are adorable. I wish I could eat at Faros every night. Every single course was a work of art. ❤️

Unfortunately, I was disappointed with the experience at Faros. Me and my partner visited on a weekday lunch since it had a very high rating, and we wanted to try it out. We had calamari fritti and octopus carpaccio for starters. Calamari was one of the toughest I've had. Octopus carpaccio had no flavour despite me trying desperately to get any flavour out of it. :D The mains were better. Margherita pizza was nice, simple but tasty, with thin base. Seafood risotto had a big problem of tough seafood, not feeling fresh at all. Beef ragu pappardele was okay. Just expected deeper flavours with beef ragu cooked for 6 hours. Overall price and quality of food did not match. Sitting space was very limited. We had a tiny table with barely enough space for 2 plates, cutlery, and glasses. In addition the table next to ours was very close. I was worried of smn sitting there since we would definitely have intervened in each other's spaces. Service was good. However, I feel like the restaurant is trying to overcompensate poor food quality and high prices with overly attentive service.

It's so wise to choose this restaurant for your birthday this time! The moment I stepped into the restaurant, I was immediately drawn in by its warm and elegant atmosphere. The soft lighting and soothing music blend perfectly, and every corner is filled with a sense of ceremony. The dishes are delicious. Waiter Mehmet provided meticulous and measured service throughout the meal, always paying attention to the needs without disturbing the dining rhythm. I had unforgettable birthday memories here. Both the food and the service were impeccable. Highly recommended!
