Mortimer House Kitchen is an independent Mediterranean room in Fitzrovia that still reads as a find — not on the tourist circuit, and the kind of place a local would send you.

Why we recommend

Mortimer Street dining room inside a members' house — Mediterranean-leaning, beautiful room, and cooking that punches above the hotel-restaurant cliché. Worth the trip for the space alone.
