About Axis Restaurant and Bar
If you’re headed back to the office or off to the theatre, the staff at Axis will gladly feed you well and speed you on your way. But if you can spare the time, do don your trendiest duds and linger a while. The restaurant has quickly become one of the hippest see and be seen venues in London. The room is lovely with futuristic murals and the food is inventive: favourites include haddock cheese souffle and Japanese grilled saikyo cod with udon noodles, pumpkin and dashi. Giant wine list.
