This new spot by chef James Lowe is quickly becoming a brilliant showcase of modern British cuisine . While that may come as no surprise, they're also serving some of the best coffee in Shoreditch.
I highly recommend this East London fine dining experience. The menu changes daily and is full of surprises - including a few courses that aren't advertised. Perfect for a special occasion .
Looooove this place! Everything’s perfect, food, vibe, service, everything. I ordered the monkfish for lunch , and it’s absolutely amazing. Best fish dish I’ve tasted for years. Licking plate LOL
Menu changes daily but we lived the duck hearts with sweet corn as well as the beef and mussel tartare . Order extra appetizers and share them - at dinner it's a set tasting menu
Seasonal British cuisine, 4 course menu that changes daily. Great combination of flavours in each dish. Highlights were the duck and the espresso meringue
High quality coffee served at the bar - take a seat and ask the barista what filter coffees are on offer. Espresso , flat white , etc, available too.
They have a secret coffee bar during the day serving coffees from the likes of Koppi. Had a selection of the small starter plates for lunch which were all excellent. Decor is St. John chic . v cool.
Great ingredients, well plated and amazing taste. What else you could ask for. Order few plates and share to be able to taste all.
Have the filter coffee , it's wonderful (and still a fairly rare thing) to get decent coffee at end of meal for once. At £39 for 5 courses it's great value showcasing some decent modern British cuisine
You can't go wrong here but rejoice extra hard if the sardines on toast or the netil soup are on the menu. And if you like Vermouth try an Americano before dins.
Traditional English menu with an acidity and earthy print.The price is a little bit high, but overall I’d say 7.5/10 I didn’t like the 1£ for charity that was added, without my consensus, to the bill.
Michelin 1 star. Pretty clean , sterile decor. Quick service . They only do a set menu for dinner which actually makes things easier and fast!
One of THE best dining experiences ever … food was phenomenal… service was OUTSTANDING… Patrick was superb, knowledgeable , friendly and patiently explained everything … Thanks
Excellent modern British cooking in the heart of trendy Shoreditch. Menu changes daily but have the Ox Heart if poss! Full review on Scoff: http://scofflondon.com/restaurants/lyles-restaurant-review/
“Chef James Lowe’s food represents an evolution of British cuisine from sturdy nose-to-tail cooking to an elegant celebration of the delicacy of the English seasons.” - David Prior Read more
For lunch , just get two small plates per person. You will have a feast for cheap . Coffee is amazing here, so save some room at the end.
Delicious and innovative 5 course fixed tasting menu . Worth it as a treat or if someone else is paying. Sets a high bar for a first date.
One of London's best new restaurants . Really smart cooking here, and comes as an affordable price fixed meal.
Don't even think about going in if you've accidentally worn denim on the day, the pretentiousness doesn't end with coffee nonetheless good coffee & the barista behind the bar is really friendly .
Great food vibe and service interestingly wine list the ox tail and marrow crumpets were the standout dish for me
AMAZING! Just lean back and enjoy all the menu has to offer. Delicious natural wines !
One of my favorites in London. Quite innovative but down to earth British cuisine. Very good value for your money.
There’s a coffee bar here in the morning serving one of London’s best single origin pour overs.
Simplicity on the menu and space ????+ great coffee
Lol that this has only an 8. Rated one of the world’s best and for what it is, you cannot beat the price.
Interesting excersise in deconstructed food. The menu was honestly hit and miss 50/50. Would ultimately not return quickly. The wine list doesn't perfectly compliment the ever changing menus.
Delicious seasonal menu . Couldn't move after all the courses. They let you share glasses of wine - I recommend doing that!
Great quality food, but heavy on the cheese during my dinner menu . Would love to go back for an a la carte lunch .
They do a fixed dinner menu and it changes fairly often - the food does not disappoint and neither does their wine selection .
Trendy modern british food with a daily changing menu . Food was okay and definitely on the salty side. Service was very slow too
Very good value for money . Interesting combinations of food within a casual atmosphere .
Extraordinary food experience! A delicate mix of textures and flavours.
Wonderful service, creative menu! Will definitely be back!
I don’t understand the hype. Every dish was extremely plain and disappointing. Smoked salmon , pea salad ...really? The only redeeming factor was the blackcurrant dessert which was actually phenomenal.
They have a very nice monkfish plate! Must try
Hidden good coffee place ! I hope they serve breakfast , then it would be perfect.
If the Jerusalem artichoke is on the menu, you want a reservation pronto!
Fresh ingredients and flavors but 2/6 dishes were really really salty
On the $$$ but excellent. If only I could afford it more often.
Coffee and the food
Fantastic flatwhite
We tried 6 starters and all of them were exceptioal.
They only have a fixed menu but it's great.
Healthy light food
You should go :)
It's worth popping in just for a take away coffee .
Outstanding minimal taste maximum pleasure
I was very very disappointed!!65th restaurant in the world really? 1 star Michelin? Bad service, the food was just ok..I don't know if it was a bad day for the chef and his team but really bad night!
Some good stuff happening here
The food was not good. It was either oily, salty or burnt. Definitely does not shine as a Michelin star .
The roast bone marrow and the duck hearts with radishes are both amazing. The roast grouse is pretty good too. - Leigh Hoang
Great atmosphere. Great for dinner meetings, date, catching up with friends. Food and drinks are more on the expensive side though. - Kornelija Maceviciute
Interesting use of ingredients with great vegetarian options. The place has a light and airy ambience and am looking forward to the place getting their well deserved Michelin star. - Cheryl Ye
Hop@naming upstairs a must. Chilli squid and green curry chicken outstanding. - Samantha Sile
Live jazz music, out-of-this-world cocktails and the friendliest staff. Perfect for a date! - Myrtou Par
Amazing place to visit, shop, eat and drink.. Good restaurants, burger joints, or even food trucks serving food from all over the world.. - Jay
