The Belvedere is the most sophisticated of West London’s celebrity hangouts. Set inside a beautiful building in the heart of Holland Park, it is the perfect place for secluded summer dining. Regulars include Madonna and Michael Winner, while owner Marco Pierre White was famously married there. The menu is classically French with Modern European influences. House specials include Smoked Haddock Monte Carlo, risotto of caramelised calamari and Sea Bass with tomatoes and olives. On Sundays, sumptuous traditional roasts are served. Sit outside on the heated terrace and enjoy spectacular views over one of London’s top beauty spots.
