Launched in April 2013 when the Noma alumnus Tom Sellers was a youthful 25 years old, Restaurant Story was immediately dubbed "the new Dabbous" by food critic Marina O'Loughlin and earned a Michelin star just five months after opening. Reopened in May 2018 after a major interior refit, the redesign brought with it a new menu - not that you'll see it. Rather than being given a menu on arrival, guests get to choose from two menus and each table is treated individually, creating their own bespoke 'story'. Much of the service is done table-side, so your food is prepared in front of you and a drinks trolley does the rounds. With a first rate CV which includes working under Thomas Keller (Per Se), Rene Redzepi (Noma) and Tom Aikens at his Chelsea restaurant, it's not surprising that bookings can be hard to come by.
