Good restaurants in covent garden - price not an issue?

Bistro 1 on Southampton Street.





The food isn't expensive, on the contrary its quite cheap, but don't let that put you off because the food is absolutely amazing.





If you like simple Mediterranean food then this restaurant is worth a try.

Rules in Maiden Lane. England's oldest restaurant - it has been there 200 years.





I eat there at least once per month. You will need to book well ahead - and if you are planning to go on a Friday / Saturday / Sunday you will need to book probbaly 2+ weeks in advance to have any chance of a good table.

Some of the other suggestions are good too - Loch Fynne is OK for seafood - but it is a chain so it is not that special.





The Savoy Grill is fantastic - but very formal and you are looking at £150+ per head with wine.

and Savoy Grill on Strand across road from Covent Garden
Reply:Maggiore is excellent, just off covent garden market, very elegant - you'll need to book asap tho.





I didn't think deuxieme was very good and the tables are a bit too close together.
Reply:For atmosphere try Sarastras at the back of Drury LOane. The food is sort of Greek/Turkish. The walls are painted like a theatre. The ladies ands gents have erotic paintings. There are little boxes you can get that you climb up steps to. On Sundays and Mondays there are opera singers performing from the Opera House. The guy who runs it calls himself King Richard. It's not haute cuisine, but it is fun
