Dinner by Heston Blumenthal

Knightsbridge·$$$$

Hay Smoked Trout (c.1730)

£26.00

Trout smoked in hay with lemon salad, gentleman's relish, and sorrel.

Tip: If you want a starter that won't fill you up before mains, this is lighter than the Meat Fruit. The hay smoking is genuinely different from regular smoked fish.

Kizana

Battersea·$$$

Black Cod

£18.50

Miso-marinated black cod, grilled until caramelised.

Tip: Pair this with a couple of sushi rolls for a well-rounded meal. The miso glaze is sweet and salty — goes well with jasmine rice if they have it.

Dinner by Heston Blumenthal

Knightsbridge·$$$$

Roast Turbot and Green Sauce (c.1440)

£64.00

Fillet of turbot with braised chicory, parsley, pepper, xxxx, and eucalyptus.

Tip: The turbot is the strongest fish main on the menu. It's £64 but the xxxxxxx and quality justify the price. The eucalyptus note is subtle — don't expect it to taste medicinal.

Brooklands by Claude Bosi

Belgravia·$$$$

Turbot with Blackmount Cheese and Argan Oil

Wild turbot with a surprising savory cheese pairing and aromatic oil.

Tip: Don't be put off by the cheese and fish pairing — it's one of the most clever things on the menu.

Edera

Holland Park·$$$

Sea Bass Baked in Salt

£32.00

Whole wild sea bass encased in a thick crust of sea salt to lock in moisture.

Tip: This is the best way to eat white fish. Great for two people to share if you've already had a couple of pastas.

#691% recommend

Brat

Shoreditch·$$$

Whole Turbot

£150.00

Whole fish grilled over open fire, served family-style to feed four.

Tip: This is a celebration dish — come with friends who are excited about seafood. The whole turbot is meant for a group and the experience is theatrical (it's prepared tableside). Book in advance and give notice.

Rochelle Canteen

Shoreditch·$$$

Cod's Roe

£12.50

Fresh cod roe served with toasted sourdough and salad.

Tip: Order this if it's on the menu — it doesn't appear every day. The kitchen sources roe based on season and availability.

Marcella

Deptford·$$

Whole Mackerel with Tomatoes

£18.00

Whole grilled mackerel served with confit tomatoes and potato cakes.

Tip: The mackerel comes whole with bones in. If you're not comfortable deboning at the table, ask the staff — they'll sort it for you.

#988% recommend

Fonda

Mayfair·$$$

Adobado Monkfish

£32.00

Charred monkfish with potato cubes and seaweed butter.

Tip: The seaweed butter is made from Welsh seaweed and is what makes this dish unforgettable — make sure every bite of monkfish gets some.

Mountain

Soho·$$$

Whole Red Mullet Grilled on the Bone

£22.00

Whole mullet grilled over wood with rich olive oil and butter sauce.

Tip: The whole fish is better than fillet — the bones add flavor and the skin gets crispy. Ask your server to help you navigate it if needed.

Rochelle Canteen

Shoreditch·$$$

Crispy John Dory

£14.00

Fresh John Dory fried until crispy, served with homemade ketchup.

Tip: Don't skip the ketchup — it's made fresh and tastes nothing like bottled versions. Use it generously.

#1288% recommend

Kiln

Soho·$$

Grilled Fish

£16.00

Fresh whole or fish fillets grilled over open fire.

Tip: Ask what fish is available that day — the menu rotates. Whole grilled fish (if offered) is often the best option. The fire char is essential to the flavor profile.

Core by Clare Smyth

Notting Hill·$$$$

Skate with Morecambe Bay Shrimps & Swiss Chard

£24.00

Grilled skate wing with brown shrimps, chard, and brown butter.

Tip: The Morecambe Bay shrimps are seasonal and limited. If they're on the menu, this is the dish to choose.

#1486% recommend

Akub

Notting Hill·$$$

Arak-Cured Monkfish

£13.50

Monkfish cured in arak with fresh herbs and lemon.

Tip: The arak gives this a unique flavor you won't find elsewhere in London. Go in open-minded.
