Gordon Ramsay's level of celebrity has reached such a fever pitch that it has become very nearly impossible to get a table at the small restaurant that first established the belligerent ex-Rangers footballer as the biggest name in British food. If you do manage to get in, what you'll find is an absolutely excellent British restaurant, where subtle touches complement, but never drown, the excellent seasonal ingredients. There's some fantastic offal on offer for nose-to-tail eaters, but the menu also has plenty of simple, traditional options. Service is immaculate, and if the decor is starting to date a little, this is more than made up for by the food. The only restaurant run by a British chef to have received three Michelin stars, and you can certainly taste why.
