HUMO London

Humo sits on St George Street. It is a ten-minute walk from Regent Street. The restaurant holds a Michelin star and three AA Rosettes.

Humo is a better choice than the surrounding Mayfair stalwarts if you prefer the focus shifted toward the fire. While the room runs smart, it avoids the stifling atmosphere common to its neighbours. The kitchen uses wood-fired heat to define its contemporary fusion menu, creating a distinct, elemental edge that the more formal dining rooms in the area lack. You come here for the precision of the flame rather than the expected pomp of the district.
