BAO, Taiwanese

BAO Soho is the OG of the BAO restaurants, serving up a poetic translation of Taiwanese Xiao Chi houses. Awarded the Michelin Bib Gourmand for almost 10 years in a row, this is one to add to your Soho dining hitlist.

53 Lexington Street

Speedboat Bar, Thai

Late night dining, bold flavours that pack a punch and an 80s soundtrack to set the scene of the Bangkok-inspired Speedboat Bar. Dine in the fabulous chaos of the Thai 'party canteen' and try their set menu for liberal portion sizes that will challenge your appetite. Coupled with good vibes and great cocktails, we recommend you book in advance to experience one of Soho's spiciest spots.

30 Rupert Street

Dishoom, Indian

Serving you the vibrant charm of India's Bombay and homage to the Iranian cafes, once the fabric of life in the capital, Dishoom has fast become a Londoners favourite spot for Indian cuisine bursting with flavours.

Breaking free from the stereotypical British curry house perception, expect authentic dishes set in the Carnaby Street, rock and roll inspired glamour era.

22 Kingly Street

The Duck and Rice, Cantonese

Game-changing dim sum, mouth-watering Cantonese cuisine and an extroverted, playful atmosphere, The Duck and Rice is ready to seat and serve.

Blending British and Asian experience, downstairs hosts a ground floor traditional British (dog friendly) pub with upstairs home to a cosier and more intimate dining room.

90 Berwick Street

INKO NITO, Japanese

Broadwick Street's INKO NITO is dishing up delicious yet unconventional robatayaki Japanese fare and sushi, dowsed in innovative flavours. Grab a spot near their open-grill for all the action or lounge near the bar with a cocktail in hand.

55 Broadwick Street

 

Kiln, Thai

Holding a Michelin Bib Gourmand title, rural Thailand has been brought to Soho by the one and only Kiln. Soak up the theatre of the dish preparation with a hotseat at their counter as Thai influenced dishes to life in flaming woks.

Top tip: If your chilli tolerance is weak, come clean from the get go to be steered away from the fiery flavours or have the heat taken down a notch with bespoke servings.

58 Brewer Street

Kricket, Indian

Inspired by the taste of India and made from best-of-British ingredients, Kricket started life as a pop-up 20 seater in a shipping container and has flourished in to one of Soho's favourite non-conventional Indian restaurant experiences with a winning formula of spicy small plates.

Holding a reputation with an extensive celebrity fanbase and standout dishes, you have to try the samphire pakora and Keralan fried chicken, washed down with one of their inventive cocktails.

12 Denman Street

Sticks 'n' Sushi, Japanese & Nordic

A fusion of Danish and Japanese flavours, Sticks 'n' Sushi has established themselves as one of London's most popular sushi spots and even a favourite for those who don't eat seafood.

Fresh out of Copenhagen, the cleanline and elegantly decorated restaurant serves up platters for sharing, good value kids menus and some of the freshest fish on the streets of Soho.

40 Beak Street

Rosa's Thai, Thai

Looking for heat and an inedible charm? Make your way to Rosa's Thai for a welcoming atmosphere and delicious Thai dishes that will have you going back for seconds.
