Housed inside a splendid Georgian townhouse off the Kings Road, guests enjoy a tasting menu experience like no other: a freewheeling expedition into the culinary imagination of Vineet Bhatia, one of the world’s foremost chef restaurateurs.
Inspired by his Mumbai heritage, global travels and British residence, Vineet Bhatia’s cuisine is as daring as it is thoughtful; precise as it is generous.
VBL’s dishes cross borders, evoke nostalgia and harness exciting flavour combinations to forge a new direction for Indian restaurants in London.

But one who embraces modern techniques and myriad international influences to create new ways to flavour, present and reconsider Indian cuisine.
