Top Best American Restaurants in Little Hallingbury

"Designer Tom Dixon went full steam ahead with the maritime theme here, transforming Sea Containers House, a great lump of an office building on the south bank of the Thames, into a hotel that is meant to resemble a transatlantic liner. A transatlantic liner, however, that also references Art Deco, Pop Art and disco, and that makes expressive use of a distinctly non-nautical palette (velvet banquettes in mimosa-yellow, wardrobes in bubblegum pink, staff uniforms in baby blue). Outside, there's Tate Modern to your left, Shakespeare's Globe to your right, and all of London seemingly spread out before you beneath the balcony of the hotel's brilliant, brassy rooftop bar 12th Knot."

"Any hotel designed by lighting guru Tom Dixon was always going to be incredibly stylish. The first London outpost for the Mondrian group, it took over the Old Sea Containers building on the South Bank, offering incredible views across the river to St Paul's. Drink champagne cocktails on the roof in the decadent 12th Knot, book a massage in the vast underground Agua Spa or catch a film at the in-house Curzon cinema."

"Mr Lyan is back at it again with his hospitality magic and this time it’s in the form of Sea Container’s Lyaness bar. With views overlooking the Thames and unbeatable cocktails, Lyaness encapsulates the very best of London under one umbrella. Any Insta snap here will without a doubt see the likes rolling in."

"If you’re looking for dinner that merges into partying, Blues Kitchen is sure to fit the bill. It’s all about Texan BBQ food here: buffalo chicken wings, chargrilled shrimps, pork ribs and Cajun squid all feature on the hearty menu – not one for veggies. There are three different locations across London (Shoreditch, Camden and Brixton), all of which host live blues and soul music each night, so bring your dancing shoes for some post-feasting fun."

"Why: Nightly live music, a menu full to the brim with American classics and a bumper crop of bourbon come together to make The Blues Kitchen a lively New Orleans-style night out, whichever location you visit. Close your calorie-tracking app and dig into hearty southern mains such as stacked burgers, seafood jambalaya and smoky barbecue ribs, and decadent desserts like Oreo doughnuts and thick milkshakes.Where:Camden, Shoreditch + Brixton"

": A lively BBQ joint inspired by the crab shacks that line the American Gulf Coast, the first Big Easy opened up on the King’s Road over 20 years ago. With live music on most nights and a variety of different unlimited nights on different days of the week, there is more than enough to bring you in and keep you there all night long!. “This place has hands down the most delicious shrimps in town” says Chris James of Delaney BBQ."

"Little carnivores (aged 10 and under) should be satisfied by the menu available at all branches of Big Easy. For £9.90, they can dig into a burger, rack of ribs, barbecue chicken or macaroni cheese with a generous side and then ice cream to follow. There’s also a great range of soft drinks, like a root beer float."

"Restaurants Chinese Marylebone. ‘Family eating’ is second nature to the Chinese, so it’s no surprise that this palatial rendezvous, located just a stroll from Madame Tussauds, is good with the kids. Sit with your little’uns at one of the big circular tables and share the spoils from some superior dim sum – ideal finger food for youngsters who haven’t yet mastered the art of chopsticks."

"Restaurants Chinese Marylebone. Decked out in lavish Oriental style, Phoenix Palace is a favourite of international businessmen, but its easy-going bustle also suits local families who crowd round circular tables for the excellent weekend dim sum (reservations are a must unless you fancy queueing). Dinner is a blast during Chinese New Year."

"Sumi, in Westbourne Grove, is sushi master Endo Kazutoshi’s version of a lower key restaurant, an analogue to his Michelin-starred restaurant Endo at the Rotunda in White City. But low-key here means beautiful brushed wood interiors that will hopefully welcome guests again soon, and a trio of bento boxes with superlative quality chirashi. One of the most luxurious takeaway options out there right now."

"This is sushi master Endo Kazutoshi’s new Notting Hill spot (he also runs the Michelin-starred Endo at Rotunda). It opened during lockdown and, as you might expect, is doing superlative sushi delivery. It’s a tight menu - just three boxes, including a premium sashimi selection."

"A more casual little sister to sushi master Endo Kazutoshi’s White City flagship, Sumi offers calming interiors and a chef’s table where guests can watch the action. Don’t miss the Wagyu striploin in onion sauce."

"Japanese , Chinese"

"Mitsuryu is a traditional Japanese food concept based on Teishoku dining, diners can expect high quality sushi rolls alongside authentic Japanese hot dishes"
