Leicester Square Kitchen

Leicester Square itself, as opposed to the surrounding area, can get a little crowded with tourists looking for cheap theatre tickets, though keen-eyed gourmands may have noticed that the Radisson Blu Edwardian Hampshire hotel on the square's south side is showcasing a stylish new eatery.

Despite its tongue-in-cheek moniker, the MO is a fusion of Peruvian and Mexican flavors served in shared dishes, including hard tacos with chili-lemon scented chicken, grilled chorizo, and tostadas with shredded crab and ginger mayonnaise. The chili and lychee margarita laced with blood orange liqueur is definitely the thing to send you out on a frigid night, and the drinks list is similarly bi-coastal.

Location: 31-36 Leicester Square, London WC2H 7LH
