Below is a list of the british (modern) restaurants in london - restaurants serving modern british food, rather than traditional (pie and mash). The list is in alphabetical order (by restaurant name, except we ignore any 'the'). If you know of another, or you'd like to send us a (two or three sentence) quick review of any of these restaurants, please contact us.

If you want to book a table at a london restaurant online, or you're flexible on the restaurant and want a special offer, there are two options: www.5pm.co.uk and www.toptable.co.uk. Both are quick and easy to use, you can confirm a table online at most restaurants, and you can even read the menu at some restaurants before you book.
