Gallery dining is taken to a whole new level at The Whitechapel Gallery’s fabulous new eatery The Whitechapel Gallery Dining Room

Based in London’s newly reopened Whitechapel Gallery is the superb restaurant the Whitechapel Gallery Dining room. Hotly tipped chef Maria Elia is at the helm of this smart new eatery where British cuisine is spiced up with Mediterranean influences to create an exciting and innovative menu. The setting is simple with smooth wood detailing, mirrored wall panels and heavy streamlined fixtures and lies in perfect harmony with its gallery setting. The refurbished café and bar on the mezzanine level offers a lighter bite with cakes and pasties, but if it’s a memorable dining experience you are after then the Whitechapel Gallery Dining Room is the place to be. Elia’s menu relies heavily on local seasonal produce, ensuring maximum freshness and taste at all times. Menu highlights include the starters of oxtail broth or local smoked eel on toast with rhubarb chutney and mains of chargrilled and slow braised lamb with preserved lemon, date, mint and chickpeas; spiced pollock and prawn and mussel stew garnished with tomatoes, cous cous and basil. If you have some space, desserts include rose scented macaroons and treacle tart. The Whitechapel Gallery has certainly reopened in style with The Whitechapel Gallery Dining Room.

Such an unexpectedly lovely Sunday lunch in the East End. Cauliflower and clementine soup a dream of special flavouers and tastes, artichokes in various forms and breast of duck was not only a delight to look at, but delicious. What a treat!<br />

Had lunch here today, and like most reviews state the restaurant is tiny. Could definitely benefit from a few less tables, but the food is delicious, I like the limited choices and as it leaves no room for error. 2 courses, shared pudding, bottle of wine and 2 bottles of water for under 70 squids with service, who can complain really?
