Dinner is the most significant meal of the day according to Heston Blumenthal. And he incorporates that same concept into the magnificent Dinner by Heston Blumenthal, the restaurant that has won numerous awards, including AA Rosettes, Michelin stars, and many others.

In this restaurant exclusivity is vital. Enjoy a private dining area decorated in the style of the 16th century, or indulge in a specially curated customized cuisine at the Chef's Table. The main dining area has floor-to-ceiling glass walls and clear views of the unique pulley system in the kitchen, a unique dining concept that matches its equally creative menu. Be ready to become mesmerized by Heston's innovative use of molecular gastronomy in his scientific culinary techniques. Don't forget to try the Meat Fruit, Salamagundy, Spiced Squab Pigeon, and Tipsy Cake before you leave.

At Rick Stein Barnes, which is run by none other than Rick Stein himself, settle in for a more laid-back experience. He actually lives just across the river from the restaurant and is frequently seen in the kitchen.

The two defining characteristics of this restaurant are authenticity and simplicity. The restaurant isn't seeking to earn any Michelin stars, as Rick Stein so eloquently states; rather, all he wants is a welcoming environment for diners to enjoy time with their loved ones. This celebrity chef restaurant, which is located along the Barnes waterfront, puts "dining with a view" at the core of the experience. The restaurant is proud of offering fresh seafood from the nearby town of Padstow, which is well-known for its fishing port. You must definitely not miss the spiced Gremolata prawns, the hearty Indonesian seafood curry, or the Dover sole a la meuniére (sole cooked in butter and lemon).

Tideway Yard, 125 Mortlake High St

Le Gavroche translating to "street urchin," climbed dramatically from modest beginnings to an explosive bout of fame.  It was the first restaurant in the UK to receive one, two, then three Michelin stars, in addition to honors like the Chef Patron Award, the Laurent Perrier Award of Excellence, the Lifetime Achievement Award for Michel Roux Jr., and more.

Consider Le Gavroche to be the Julliard of fine dining! It has trained chefs like Gordon Ramsay, Marcus Wareing, and Bryn Williams. Michel and Albert Roux founded it in 1967, and today Michel Roux Jr., who you may know from his Masterchef fame, manages it. You can enjoy the finest French classics here.

Marcus Wareing and Gordon Ramsay have a well-known dispute that dates back to the 1990s, but it hasn't stopped him from launching a spectacular eatery with his name on it.

Despite receiving a Michelin star and five AA Rosettes, Marcus maintains a commitment to traditional British flavors while producing foods that are not pretentious. The restaurant, which is a part of the five-star Berkeley hotel, only purchases the best seasonal ingredients from a selected group of vendors.  While visiting this restaurant you must definitely taste their seasonal tasting menu's option of five or seven courses. The head chef and senior sous chef personally select the courses, which may include dishes like confit double-smoked pork belly and roast Orkney scallop. All these items are paired with an exquisite sommelier’s selection.
