3. Restaurant Gordon Ramsay

A list of the best restaurants in London would not be complete without Gordon Ramsay. This top chef has several restaurants in Great Britain and abroad.

Gordon Ramsay likes to use recognisable ingredients without much embellishment. So from simple products such as courgette, beetroot and salmon, he creates culinary works of art for your plate.

5. Amaya

Crazy about Indian cuisine? Then Amaya should be on your must-visit list. The remarkable thing about Amaya is that they cook traditionally as much as possible. They use a tandoori oven, coals like a barbecue and an open grill. This gives all dishes that typical Indian flavour. The restaurant has an open kitchen and is decorated colourfully but elegantly, just like the dishes. Amaya is one of the best Michelin-starred restaurants in London.
Address: Halkin Arcade, ingang via Lowndes Street

The dishes he describes in his books and serves in his restaurants are therefore influenced by flavours from the Middle East and Asian and Italian cuisine.
