100 Wardour St restaurant review
food location
A bit of an in-the-know trend sprung up on the London restaurant and bar scene a few years ago, where owners of cool new places made them almost deliberately difficult to find.
Housed on the site of the old Marquee Club, where The Rolling Stones did their very first live performance, the restaurant and bar is split across two levels.
Inside, a first floor dining and bar area is linked by a large spiral staircase that sweeps you down to yet more tables and a bar and stage area where a roster of live musicians play every night.
We visited on a Friday night, when the place really comes to life at around 9pm with a stylish crowd of after-work folk who looked a bit like extras in a rom-com.
Executive Chef Liam Smith-Laing (previously of Istanbul’s La Petite Maison) has designed a menu that begins with small grilled Robata dishes such as garlic chicken, Japanese-style glazed eel and crispy pork belly to have with your (encouraged) starter cocktail – we tried a couple of the Madame (ciroc, pineau, lemon juice, apple juice and mint) – while for the main course you can go the whole hog (or cow) with a decadent chateaubriand to share, or try one of the delicious restaurant’s handmade pasta dishes.

ambience reservations
Incredibly rude door staff.
I rang 100 wardour street about booking entry for my birthday, and was told to make a guest list on design my night, which I did.
When I got there on the evening a couple of my friends had already been let in, but I (along with the rest of my friends) were told we didn't have a booking and couldn't come in.
They insisted I didn't have a booking even when I showed them the email, and eventually told me that design my night didn't count as a booking, it was never confirmed by 100 wardour street, I had wasted my time booking a guest list and we couldn't come in.
On the plus side my friends who had already gone in said the atmosphere inside wasn't that great, and that the bar staff had been almost as rude as the door staff.

Previously known as Indian restaurant Carom, 100 Wardour St have ignored and thus moulded the previous set-up, transforming the spaces and bar props into a space of sophisticated interiors and clearly curated materials.
Set between conservatory dining space, main restaurant and bar, there's a sultry, smoky and rich feel to 100 Wardour St that seems to blend West London with almost 20s interior clamor and glamour thanks to shining touches and chic furniture set alongside the odd neon for effect.
While our brunch included delicious, bottomless Prosecco, we could also choose from three plates on a select brunch menu (£22.95 for three courses, more than reasonable when you read what follows).
Oddly departing from eggs almost altogether, 100 Wardour St's brunch clearly doesn't bang on about benedict, offering guests more gastro plates than anything else.
While the competition on Wardour St may ever be at its dining peak thanks to a roaring run of restaurants, 100 Wardour St stand out from the crowd as not only a well established space, but a dining destination that people will aim for, rather than simply stumble upon.

In the years that followed, the space was divvied up into numerous different restaurants and bars in the years that followed, with Floridita — a Cuban bar-club-restaurant hybrid — remaining throughout.
Upstairs is the Lounge, whereas downstairs — where Floridita was previously — is the Restaurant & Club.
While upstairs is open all day, downstairs begins service at 5pm and serves food until 2am.
A pleasingly gooey, wibbly-wobbly French toast available both upstairs and downstairs is a highlight worth trying, while downstairs profiteroles and an upstairs chocolate ganache with milk ice cream are also good options.
Final flavour: Great vibes, late service and decent food makes downstairs a great addition to Soho’s scene (even if it is still Floridita at heart).

With prices per square foot in Soho reaching ever more ludicrous heights, the D&D restaurant group (owners of 26 other prime spots in London) has turned its cavernous holding on Wardour Street into a high-end restaurant/bar/lounge/music club aimed squarely at well-heeled media types.
After all, the site was once home to London’s rock ’n’ roll mecca, the Marquee Club.
The basement area, now 100 Wardour’s ‘Restaurant & Club’, still has a stage for live music.
And though there are plenty of places in Soho that are more cutting-edge than this, not many of them serve dinner right through to 2am.
100 Wardour Street: it’s hardly rock ’n’ roll, but we don’t mind it.
