UMU

Umu is a Japanese restaurant London’s Mayfair neighborhood, which creates a special dining experience in the traditional Kyoto style. Low lighting in a beautifully designed space creates a tranquil atmosphere. London regular Sophia Barattieri says Umu “always feels a bit mysterious. It’s where I go when I want a little grown up time.” The menu features the freshest fish, delicious teriake, and exotic vegetables, with stunningly artful presentations. Barattieri calls the spot her favorite Japanese restaurant in all of London. While the full tasting menu experience is a worthwhile special occasion splurge, an a special a la carte lunch menu is also available as a satisfying teaser.
