Kings Pizza Kebab London Road

XO has all the chicness of Mayfair but it's local enough that the thought of going there on a cold Sunday night isn't daunting. Local is of course subjective, but for those who don't live in or near the area, luckily XO is part of the Ricker group of restaurants so has sister pan-Asian restaurants, namely Great Eastern Dining Room in Shoreditch and e&o in Notting Hill. I recently became aware that La Bodega Negra is part of the same group but the vibe, not to the mention the food, is very different. What makes it so chic is the lighting and decor. It's so horrible when a restaurant is too bright and makes you feel like you're at a conference. I much prefer to be in a dimly lit setting...read...

This sushi restaurant is definitely the worst in the area. The sushi and sashimi box meant for 3 people was barely enough for 2, and the quality was extremely simple. Some of the sushi rolls even just had salad and cucumber. It was also very overpriced at over £35. I have tried many sushi delivery options in the area, and I strongly recommend avoiding this place. Instead, try places like Eat Tokyo (for takeout only), Feng Sushi, or even Yo Sushi. I tried to speak to the manager to complain, but he just lied and said they were selling the food at a loss because it was so good. If someone has to repeat "to be honest" that much, it's a red flag.

xo is a beautiful Asian fusion restaurant in the heart of the belsize village. chic and welcoming it would give the best of restaurants in the city a run for their money. I loved my salmon avocado maki and the berry drop martini was delicious (and tasty boozy!
