When it comes to finding something to eat in London, you will be absolutely spoiled for choice. Whether you want innovative fine-dining or something simple and cheap, there are plenty of options. As this is an impressively multicultural city, there's also a huge array of flavours to enjoy. Restaurants in London serve the cuisines of virtually every continent. 

As with most things in London, each borough of London has its own unique options. Those looking for the very best should head west, where you'll find the very best steaks, seafood, pasta and innovative cuisines that defy descriptions. You'll find flagship properties run by big names like Heston Blumenthal, Gordon Ramsey, Marcus Wareing and Monica Galetti here. 

Those looking for something a bit different should consider exploring the other compass directions. Notting Hill and Brixton are both famous for their exotic flavours, while Seven Dials has first-class Indian restaurants. Soho is the best place to go for the greatest variety in the smallest area. For budget bites, head to the food markets like Borough and Camden.
