Originally opened in 1991 in the heart of Covent Garden, Christopher’s has established itself as one of London’s best American restaurants, featured in Condé Nast, GQ, Tatler & Harper's Bazaar to name but a few. Comprising of three spaces that recall the heady-glamour of the Modern American era, Christopher’s brings you a Martini Bar on the ground floor, a glamorous Restaurant on the first floor and an intimate Club Room on the lower ground floor for private events. Housed in a Grade II listed building with an interesting past of its own, including opening in 1870 as London’s first licensed casino, Christopher's offers an extensive all day dining menu of Modern American cuisine. Weekend Brunch is also a specialty where healthy options are on offer alongside indulgent brunch favourites, including our signature french toast.

    Extremely helpful and polite staff, attentive without bothering us. Food was excellent. Prices were high but not excessive - we shared a starter and ate two courses, plus a few drinks, it was around £70 each. We arrived early so we asked to wait in the lounge which was very relaxed too. We were there just over 2 hours in total. At 5pm on a Tuesday it wasn't very full, and that made it a great place to wait before our theatre show.

    Nice food but service was very slow. A fancy restaurant serving American food with a bit of a twist. Let down by poor attentiveness from staff

    The place had a very peaceful atmosphere, and the food was delicious. I enjoyed a tasty brunch in a lovely setting. However, the service from the waiter could have been better.

    We had a lovely meal … slightly disappointed when sea bass was unavailable (and couldn’t understand the alternative fish offered). The only other note was it was a little long between starter and mains. But overall great!!

    Very disappointed. Always love coming to your restaurant. Our waitress was unhelpful and then got our order wrong. She didn’t come to apologise and when food came it was what we’d initially been told we couldn’t have. We were going to theatre so didn’t have time to make a fuss. So so disappointed

    Didn’t rate the Texas Grill today. Otherwise we’ve always had a good experience here.

    The whole experience was perfect for our situation, meeting family after a year apart. We talked and talked and were not rushed through our meal The food was excellent and the service impeccable. The Espresso Martini s were just the best cocktails
