London dining

[CAH706]

Hi,

I recently had lunch at the oxo tower brasserie and would like to try somewhere of a similar standard.

In short, I'm looking for;

Reasonable chance of availability on a Saturday late Feb .... Would be dining at 2 or 3pm
No or minimal dress code (smart jeans ok etc)
Good quality food
Location in central London and ideally easily accessible
I'm flexible on budget but ideally under £150 for 2 people ... Wine etc would be on top of this
Lastly, as I'm taking the wife, nice atmosphere/surroundings would be a bonus

Thanks in advance for any suggestions

Clos Maggiore. In Covent Garden.

Wonderful place and will tick all your boxes I believe.

I would recommend asking for a table in the conservatory when you book, but anywhere is lovely.

Thanks,

That does look good!

I've also been recommended the Gary Rhodes brasserie at Marbel arch .... Anyone been there?

so long as they are open in the afternoon....

hawksmoore, hawksmoore, and again hawksmoore.

covent garden branch probably most convenient.
