Restaurant for NYE - recommendations?

[BJL]

Any recommendations for a good restaurant for New Year's Eve?

We're looking to go for an earlyish meal and then go on somewhere else, so we're not in search of a place with a NYE "package" - just somewhere with good (not very expensive) meal with atmosphere. Most styles of cooking are fine and anywhere in the City or central/north London would be convenient. Thanks...

BJL doesn't appear to be looking for a local restaurant, judging by the phrase "anywhere in the City or central/north London would be convenient" :)

So I guess it would be shunted off the local businesses thread PDQ ....

Try this place if you can get a booking. Absolute belter of a restaurant.

Thanks for the suggestion SCSB79 - I'll give them a call. All other ideas still welcome...

Try Soho Japan.

It's essentially an old pub in Fitzrovia made into a Japanese restaurant. Our friend was over from Tokyo this week and she took us there for lunch.

It's all very good (especially the sushi... in fact I loved the food all round) and unlike some Japanese places it's also very relaxed, perfect for a NYE kickoff.

As an added bonus, the sushi chef looks just like Mr Miyagi from The Karate Kid.

(which is nice)

There's a side dish of Spinach with sesame paste and seeds that i'm still dreaming of.

Oh god, see what you've done. Now i'm having reoccurring food fantasies at 8:30 am.
