Top 100 restaurants: the fifth best restaurant in London is…

Chutney Mary

This week we're counting down towards announcing the best restaurant in London on Tuesday August 11. We'll be revealing the top ten one by one each day. And so without further ado, Chutney Mary is in at number five.

Our review says:

'When Chutney Mary opened in Chelsea 25 years ago, it put refined Indian dining on London’s culinary map. It’s owned by the Panjabi sisters, who also run Veeraswamy, Amaya, the Masala Zone group, and Masala Grill. Relocated to St James’s in June 2015, it’s a plush set-up and dining here isn’t cheap, but the cooking is exemplary, offering classic dishes alongside lighter flavours. It’s a place for entertaining business colleagues, for romancing over a candlelit meal, or even to keep mid-afternoon hunger pangs at bay with chilli cheese toast and a cold beer.'
