The ultimate way to a person's heart is through their stomach, but finding the perfect romantic restaurant in London for Valentine's Day can be surprisingly hard. Whether you want a classic candlelit supper, a private booth or some steamy sharing plates if you're looking for somewhere memorable with a sense of intimacy, we've compiled a list of some of the capital’s finest and most romantic culinary offerings.

In no particular order, here are London's best romantic restaurants and what to wear... 

 

SESSIONS ARTS CLUB

If you're looking to impress look no further than Sessions Arts Club. Informally crowned London's most romantic spot over the past year or so, this restaurant promises to enchant even the most cynical of diners.

SPARROW

Mayfair's Sparrow restaurant is an absolute gem and perfect for a romantic evening for a couple of reasons. Everything about the venue itself is seductive. Nestled in cosy little Avery Row, the cute little entranceway does nothing to betray the relatively cavernous multi-level interior. Heading up in the lift to dine among the trees is like stepping foot into the clearing of an enchanted forest, all twinkly low lighting and spotlight tables.

TRULLO

This little neighbourhood favourite is popular with Islington locals and those in the know. Famed for its fresh pasta and open grilled meats, tables can be hard to come by so it's best to book in advance. The cosy ground floor and brick-lined basement are filled with wooden rickety tables dressed in crisp white linen and candlelit at dusk. Plates are small as it's made to be shared.

LE PETIT BEEFBAR

Renowned restaurateur Riccardo Giraudi’s glitzy Beefbar restaurants have slowly but surely been popping up in all the world’s most elegant addresses. Since opening late last year, Le Petit Beefbar has already become one of the hottest date night spots in town, with its moody lighting, chic interiors and killer cocktails which set a romantic tone from the get-go.

THE NOMAD HOTEL

If it’s true decadence you’re after, then a hop and skip down to the NoMad’s flagship restaurant is the way to go. Boasting one of London’s best restaurant atriums and achingly tasteful decor, the grand setting belies an understatedly impressive food and drink menu.
