Mayfair Restaurants come and go, but Le Gavroche never changes - the service remains the best in London, head chef Michel Roux Jnr is ever-present (a lesson for the Ramsay's and Rhodes' of the world), and the buttery-rich, classic French food continues to attain heights of gimmick-free perfection that flashy joints like Nobu can only dream of. The decor has changed very little since it was founded in the late 60s, and it continues to the thick carpet, heavy wood, gleaming silverware and green leather simply reek of luxury. The prices are absolutely eye-watering in the evenings, but the £48 three-course lunch is a good deal: it includes wine, water, coffee, canapes and a shorter, but otherwise equally good, menu.
