Claro (London)

Top notch Mediterranean cuisine. The food is outstanding - good portion size, great presentation and with excellent quality ingredients. Great selection on the menu, including innovative takes on classic Mediterranean dishes, “must have” breads like the kubaneh, different aged steaks, interesting variations of lamb, seafood and vegetarian dishes. The service is excellent: friendly, attentive, and professional. The wine list is impressive, and the cocktails are fantastic. Very innovative, beautifully made, and they taste great. Beautiful location and settings in central London. Highly recommended. One of the best dining experiences in London, and we’ll definitely be back.

Came for an early dinner before theater and were thoroughly impressed. Every dish was delicious and plated nicely. The cocktails were SO good! Gabriel our server was wonderful, excellent service and a genuinely kind guy. Great music and pretty setting. Would absolutely recommend dinner here.

We found Claro during a recent trip to London and it was fantastic! We had been doing some shopping in the area and wanted to grab some lunch. We were craving lighter fare with unique flavors and Claro delivered! Everything about our lunch was superb…the global flavors of the food, the inventive craft cocktails, and the creative twist on a dessert classic, chocolate mousse. The interior was also stunning! Beautiful windows flood the space with warm soft light and the attention to detail is apparent. Highly recommended for lunch or dinner, for both an intimate meal or with friends.

This is the first time we travel to London from USA. Our family of 6 ordered 6 dishes for dinner and all 6 were so delicious that we came back the next day. Again, there were so delicious, especially the octopus which is so far the best for us compared to all the restaurants that we have had from several European countries and USA. The spareribs and the beef were perfectly done with tasty delicate side dishes. The dishes are better than some of the 1 star Michelin restaurants that we have dined in the past. We highly recommend Claro.

Wonderful evening at one of the best restaurants in central London. The food was superb, with creative Mediterranean-inspired dishes and excellent use of vegetable ingredients and flavor combinations. Highlights included the okra on labaneh, which was delicate and perfectly balanced; the kubana bread, baked with butter to perfection; the shrimp falafel was a brilliant and original ; and the lamb “cigar,” rich and refined. The desserts were equally memorable, especially the date cake with whiskey, pecans, and coconut ice cream. Service was meticulous yet warm and friendly, and the venue itself is beautiful and romantic. A memorable dining experience that I would gladly repeat.
