#FLODown: Isabel Mayfair
A Mayfair hotspot located on London’s Albermarle Street, Isabel is an opulent location with equally as opulent clientele. This all-day restaurant and bar features a menu that blends Mediterranean and South American cuisines together seamlessly. Some of their best dishes include jamon Iberico, parrilla octopis, and (our favourite) truffled ricotta ravioli.
Expect to find dazzling interiors and a vibrant atmosphere, including a plush central bar. Art influences are felt throughout the restaurant with hand painted bespoke de Gournay wallpaper in the bathrooms, padded silk brocade walls, and velvet banquettes in the downstairs bar.
If you like the sound of Isabel, then don’t forget to check out their sister restaurant, Casa Cruz in Notting Hill!

#FLODown: Over the years Isabel has been labelled as a restaurant with ‘style over substance’ – we disagree. The food, the atmosphere and the friendly staff only complement the style and décor. This is the perfect location if you enjoy fine dining.
