“They don’t need to try too hard” at Jun Tanaka’s “relaxed” but extremely accomplished Fitzrovia fixture. “Everything that’s on the plate is there for a reason… a good reason!” – his “very high-quality” cuisine is “very well-balanced” and service is “charming”. Top Menu Tips – “seared mackerel with pickles works well, beef cheeks is a signature, and turbot head is wonderful”. BREAKING NEWS: In summer 2022, a fire closed the restaurant, with no reopening date set as of mid August 2022.

Jun Tanaka’s brilliant Mediterranean-inspired cooking is showcased at its best at his casual six-year-old HQ in Fitzrovia. It’s “notably good value” for cooking of this “excellence” and “variety of flavours” – the sort of place you’ll “definitely go back to again”. Tanaka has done some TV but is relatively unsung – if he was a little better known, this place would be a household name.

“Mouth-watering food”“French-style with a difference” – wows almost all visitors to Jun Tanaka’s “informal fine-dining” joint in Fitzrovia. “The food is taken seriously but the atmosphere is grounded and relaxed”“when I want a solid and thoughtful meal, I go here”. Better still, it’s “a bit of a bargain for the quality”, and there’s “huge value in the wine list for a Michelin restaurant”.
