Local Restaurants This Month

Le Relais de Venise L’entrecote , 120 Marylebone Lane W1, 020 7486 0878

The landlords are putting a lot of effort into Marylebone Lane and it’s developing as a quirkily interesting little shopping street. Of the many small restaurants, one offers a French version of fast food……..a sort of Michelin star McDonalds, on the back of a formula that’s worked in Paris for 50 plus years. This is a useful local restaurant though not one I rush back to despite the lengthy queues that form around 7.00pm - you can’t book.

It’s a set meal of salad – with a secret dressing recipe, steak with a secret sauce recipe & chips, and one of those meals that despite enjoying it whilst eating, at the end I feel no desire to repeat it. That may just be because I forget to decline the second helping they hold off to the side. Service is Parisian.
