The much-loved Rib Room at Jumeirah Carlton Tower in London's Knightsbridge, originally launched in 1961, has always been a bastion of beef and all that is traditional in British dining. Situated on the Knightsbridge and Belgravia border within Jumeirah Carlton Tower hotel, this restaurant is the perfect stop off point after a tough day of retail therapy at nearby Harrods and Harvey Nichols.

The glamorous dining room mixes sophistication with tradition, with remarkably personal service, providing a wonderful setting for lunch and dinner. It really is unabashed luxury with lots of room allowed for every table, no fear of being overheard when you are holding your power lunch there. Start off the day with one of the best English breakfasts London has to offer or step in for a relaxed meal at lunchtime or in the evening.

The Rib Room helps you pull off your private dining event faultlessly with their dedicated menus featuring baked Stilton pudding with a salad of poached pears, crispy walnuts and watercress; roast corn-fed chicken, boulangere of the leg, French beans in Alsace bacon, tarragon and mustard jus, and Valrhona chocolate mousse with a soft peanut centre and raspberry sorbet.

Head Chef, Ian Rudge's seasonal menu showcases the best of modern and traditional British cuisine including the world-renowned roast rib of beef; there is also an emphasis on fresh seafood and fish. Starters include caramelised scallops with slow cooked belly of pork, orange and ginger dressing and caramelised apple tart with pan fried foie gras port and balsamic caramel.
