Plenty of hedge fund bonuses have been spent at this Mayfair restaurant, which became the “it” spot under owner Richard Caring, a fashion magnate who also owns the Ivy and J. Sheekey. Sit at the oval-shaped oyster bar, the see-and-be-seen focal point of this chic seafood eatery, and people watch over a glass of bubbly and some delicious Dover sole or freshly-shucked oysters. Original works by such British artists as Gary Hume, Michael Landy and Fiona Rae adorn the walls. And celebrity doorman Sean McDermott is still there to greet and to bid adieu. Of course, it doesn’t hurt that its neighbor the Connaught is one of the most glorious hotels in London and that Mount Street is one of the city’s best shopping streets. An additional outpost can be found in Richmond.
