Here are six reasons why you must book a table for Bacchanalia right now.

1. The showstopping interiors

Curated by Caprice Holdings’ chairman Richard Caring, the epic restaurant’s spectacular dining room features four Damien Hirst statues, hand-painted ceiling murals and 2000-year-old Greek and Roman artworks.

Taking centre stage is Gary Myatt’s floor-to-ceiling interpretation of Romans In Their Decadence, so there’s plenty to fill your Instagram feed.

2. The flamboyant food

The food is as flamboyant as the interiors with a beautifully curated menu inspired by Greek and Italian cuisine. Curated by renowned chef Athinagoras Kostakos, diners can expect an immersive experience with a theatrical presentation of dishes. Seasonal dishes include crab salad, seabream carpaccio, risotto nero for three and turbot for two to share.

Bacchanalia’s extensive wine list has been selected by Caprice Holdings’ Group wine director Terry Kandylis, and features more than 650 references from Greece, Italy, France and beyond. The restaurant is the only dining spot in London to feature 25 Italian 100-point wines and also includes exclusive Bacchanalia own-label wines, including house champagne, champagne rare, super Tuscan red and Assyrtiko white wine.
