London Restaurant Reviews

Hi, I'm Mehreen! I write honest London restaurant reviews to help you discover the city's best restaurants, cafés and bakeries, one meal at a time.

Every review is based on a real visit, with recommendations on exactly what to order (and what to skip). Because life's too short for a bad lunch.

Wild Izakaya London should be a win, but our £130 lunch disappointed. Great fish, messy pacing, and clumsy execution failures. All the details in our review.
