CriterionA landmark restaurant on London’s fine dining scene since opening in 1874, Criterion offers exquisite European cuisine in an opulent, dramatic setting. Indulge in a typically luxurious 3-course menu alongside your chilled champagne cocktail, with dishes including lamb ragout with homemade gnocchi & peas, or raspberry & chocolate cake with candied orange. Widely regarded as one of London’s most spectacular dining rooms, this magical Grade II-listed building features stunning Neo-Byzantine design, with gilded ceilings, glittering mirrored panels and red velvet swirled throughout. Criterion Restaurant sits just next to Piccadilly Circus Tube Station.
