Top 10 Single Dish Restaurants in London

Super-Niche restaurants are dominating the London food scene and have been causing quite a stir over the past year or so. The concept itself is pretty self-explanatory; the restaurant will specialize in a certain ingredient or a single dish. With now over 25 mono restaurants in London they must be getting something right, so what is their secret? The appeal of single dish restaurants is three fold. Firstly, a limited menu ensures good quality, with only one or two dishes to offer you have nowhere to hide. Secondly, food envy is erased, you know what you want and you get what you’re wanting. Finally, they are simply different and fun, we live in a generation that craves the unconventional whilst wanting to be on top of the trend and these restaurants feed our appetite for this. So, you better start trying them out… here is our list of the best single dish restaurants in London;
