This prestigious establishment commands magnificent views of the river Thames and people frequent the place in droves, especially for business lunches and romantic dinners. Modern art hangs by the bar, where a live singer or pianist entertains during the inevitable wait for a table. The food, an eclectic blend of contemporary dishes, strives to keep up with the gargantuan hype, and it's usually the eighth floor vista that impresses more than the plate. The restaurant lighting is supposed to emulate moonlight, but you'll feel obliged to step out onto the 250ft terrace and admire the real thing and the mesmerising, uninterrupted sight of beautiful London landmarks alongside the Thames. Be sure to sample one (or two) of the 350 wines on offer, and take home a tasty snack too, as backers Harvey Nichols sell packaged food items by the front desk.
