New London restaurants
GENESIS
Joining the already thriving Shoreditch restaurant scene is a fresh new vegan alternative. Genesis offers an organic plant-based menu without sacrificing the taste and feel of delicious street food.

Whether you’re looking for signature savoury sushi dishes or a selection of flavourful cocktails, SushiSamba delivers. Pair your food with a cultural spirit such as sake, pisco or sochu, or keep it classic with wine or champagne.
SAVAGE GARDEN
Savage Garden, the already dynamic London hotspot, is now offering lunch with a view. Enjoy beautiful city views from the rooftop lounge in Tower Hill while tucking into an equally tasty meal with their new Savagely Swift menu. Choose from a selection of mouthwatering starters and hearty mains and pair it with a lunchtime pick-me-up from the cocktail menu.
