Kai Mayfair

Kai Mayfair is possibly one of the most elegant Chinese restaurants available today. Since its opening in 1993, and retaining a Michelin star since 2009, it has been decorated by numerous magazines, guides and surveys as the Best Chinese Restaurant. It is set over two beautiful floors, with ultra sleek, comfortable and stylish décor, illuminated by arty wall hangings and off-set by the classic staple starched white table linen. The staff are faultlessly attentive yet the epitome of discretion, but it is the food that makes the biggest statement here. Chef Alex Chow produces classic Cantonese dishes with traditional roots, alongside exciting new experimental creations almost begging to be sampled. Menus available are a Little Plate Lunch, a la carte, or Set Menu option for 6+persons from £75pp options. Owner Bernand Yeoh magically manages to ensure this always retains that welcoming neighbourhood restaurant feel, even if that just happens to be the finest area of Mayfair.
