Met all our expectations in terms of special festive ambience! So gorgeous! Service was attentive and helpful, and our lunch wasn’t rushed in any way. Food was delicious but unfortunately not hot. We didn’t mind because our experience was wonderful overall. Treat yourself to this special restaurant and you won’t forget it.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Claro, in one of the most picturesque areas of London, and I couldn't resist returning for a second time. The restaurant is beautifully situated among the city's finest architecture, and during this festive season, it’s even more enchanting with the twinkling Christmas lights adorning the surroundings. The menu is a fantastic showcase of Mediterranean and Middle Eastern flavours, featuring a variety of dishes that cater to all tastes. I highly recommend trying the hispi cabbage; it was simply outstanding! The flavours were vibrant and well-balanced, making it a standout dish that I couldn't stop raving about. I wholeheartedly recommend to anyone looking to enjoy a memorable dining experience. I can't wait to return for a third time!
