The aniseed-ish, raisiny roll was a particular favourite. Although you can just about see the kitchen through the partially-frosted windows on the mezzanine at Hide Above, it’s not the visual focus here as some other restaurant kitchens are. Burrata served warm wasn’t quite milky, creamy or elastic enough.

The lip-smackingly moreish broth, apparently made from the bones of the fish, neatly bound everything together. If not, then the soothing blonde woods of the furniture and fittings as well the soft-ish lighting, the view over the ground-floor tables and the free WiFi will have to keep you distracted. Hide Above in Piccadilly offers both a set lunch menu and tasting menu, with matching wine flights available. But that’s OK, you already know what it looks like. Chicken liver parfait was wispy to the point of weightlessness, yet it still had an unmistakable creamy earthiness.
That, unsurprisingly, turned out to be tahini for all intents and purposes and yet its profound nuttiness didn’t manifest until late in the game.

Whether due to money, time or stress, or some unfortunate combination of all three, a restaurant’s premises, location or menu sometimes aren’t quite what its proprietor and chef would have liked them to be. There are restaurants where it’s clear that compromises have been made. ‘Above’ allows you to experience the full repertoire of this talented kitchen, whose immaculately crafted dishes emphasise the natural flavours of ingredients; ‘Ground’ is a slightly more casual, all-day affair; while ‘Below’ is a basement cocktail bar.
A choice of booze is available, not just rum. Crisp greens were exceptionally well-chosen, balancing a salty evocation of the sea with an almost basil-like sweetness. Apologies folks. Acorn-flour cake was, for all intents and purposes, a rum baba. There were even frozen flower petals inside the ice block, suggesting that possibly more thought had gone into this over-engineered plate substitute than into the ice cream itself.
‘Ravioli’ doesn’t seem quite right. Attentive but informal, simple but sophisticated. Hide Ground isn’t perfect either and it’s still unavoidably expensive, but the precision, bold flavours and quirky character of its menu are worth every penny.

This dessert would’ve been much poorer without this tea. The latter felt as if it was constantly contorting itself to find new ways of being clever, on-trend and worthy. all available for you to taste. It takes the bouillabaisse from Rick Stein Barnes and shits upon it from a very great height. It’s almost like a hotel restaurant, but without the hotel. A true delight from beginning to finish. A thin mushroom soup was the perfect way to start a meal – light yet teasing the tongue with an earthy umami. Hide offers five separate private dining rooms. The steamed turbot is one of the alternate options on the tasting menu upstairs at Hide Above and is also available a la carte at Hide Ground.
Sweet, gently zingy herbs deserved a similarly high-quality ricotta, not the drab flecks that turned up instead. Although the wrinkly morels scattered on top weren’t quite aromatic and funky enough, they were still texturally pleasing. Eggy creamy custard was whippy yet tinged with the smokiness of Earl Grey as well hints of saffron and a sweetness I couldn’t quite place. On the last Sunday of each month, The Hidden Supper Club will be an opportunity for Above Head Chef James Goodyear to draw on his impressive experience at top kitchens around the world and showcase an exciting new menu of experimental dishes which do not appear on Hide's regular menus.

The sommelier team has worked closely with Ollie Dabbous and Hedonism Wines to devise three exceptional optional wine flights; Classic, Iconic & Hedonistic, which are available alongside the full wine list. It was the texture of the sorbet that was especially notable, though. Wherever you end up, don’t pass up this dish up. Saturday 09.00-midnight. United Kingdom, T: 020 3146 8666
Crisp, crunchy crudités were fine, but paled into insignificance next to the sumptuous selection of breads. and the great into the sublime. Hide Above offers diners tranquil views over Green Park and a light-filled
The ground-floor Hide Ground has a separate a la carte menu. Any doubts were soon assuaged by the creamy umami of the bouillabaisse-style broth and peppery sweet rouille, both neatly complimenting the light meatiness of the squid flakes. It might not be a traditional bouillabaisse, but I don’t really care that much when the result is so boldly, profoundly delicious. An unbalanced, unsatisfying and misguided dish. Sunday 09.00-23.30. We take online reservations in both Hide Above and Hide Ground. Hide offers you the very best food and drink in a refined but relaxed setting. I ended up choosing both desserts, rather than picking one or the other, and ended up wishing for a Cornetto instead. Then there was the sumptuous prune-like sweetness of the confit tamarillo, which added another layer of richness. Indeed, in many respects, the a la carte menu at Hide Ground was far more consistently accomplished than Hide Above’s tasting menu. Slices of slow-cooked tender goose, roasted caramelised salsify and white miso cream was a lovely combination on its own (and I liked the seasoning of birch sap and orange zest), but unfortunately it was buried underneath a pile of deep-fried cavolo nero. I forgot to take a photo of this one. This was quite fitting though, allowing the chicken liver parfait to remain the centre of attention. The next Hidden Supper Club is Sunday 25th October. There are plenty of neat little touches to its interior, from the handsome fittings in the bathrooms to the USB power banks tucked away in drawers underneath every table. hide ground hide above We take online reservations in both Hide Above and Hide Ground. Unctuously creamy and comforting, yet never cloying, it was a seamless blend of ovoid and fungus. Grilled clawless langoustines resembled crayfish, especially in their plump firmness. Effortlessly light and evenly smooth throughout, it was almost akin to a ball of snow on the cusp of melting – except it was completely free of any crunchy ice crystals.
Enjoy a beautifully prepared a la carte or tasting menu, with matching wine flights.
Hide Above – ★★★☆☆. The soft serve ice creams here were served in hefty, ribbed ceramic vessels. The one dessert in history to have tame and apologetic adzuki beans. ‘Dumpling’ is the closest analogue I can think of. When the tastiest thing on this plate was a drizzle of caramel at the bottom, then something has gone very wrong indeed. Soft serve ice cream is a good way of cleansing the palate after such an in-your-face dessert. Pork and duck charcuterie came wrapped around the sanitary ends of a fake bone and feather respectively, just in case you’d forgotten that meat comes from animals. Hide Below is the basement bar, where diners and drinkers alike can enjoy
Tearing each bun and slice apart produced the sort of erotic fluffy carb trails you only usually see in highly edited M&S commercials.
I was similarly impressed – delicate yet sturdy ravioli-style parcels were fit to burst with a profoundly nutty, gently creamy filling.
In short, skip the upstairs tasting menu in favour of eating a la carte downstairs. The petit fours were similarly bifurcated as the desserts that preceded them. Shame. I had already discovered that Hide’s baker can knock out some top-notch bread, but that point was driven home again by the pillowy soft flatbread that tore apart like tissue paper, leaving elastic carby trails in its wake. Despite its heaviness, a mild nuttiness still managed to shine through the boozy tang. Featuring the very best produce available, Hide's vegetarian menus are a true celebration of the seasons.

A coconut roly-poly with ideas above its station.
Barley soft serve ice cream was just as good as it was before, which also meant that the adzuki beans were just as underwhelming as they had been before. The Hide and Seek Room on the mezzanine offers a private dining experience
Despite the unnecessary if artfully crisp curls of apple, this delightful custard was eminently light yet satisfying. Even though that description makes it sound like a pricey Slush Puppie, it’s still easily one of the most astonishingly accomplished sorbets I’ve ever had. It is layers of attention to detail, skill and care that elevates the good into great
While pleasing enough, despite the meh rosemary and truffled cream on the side, I couldn’t help but pine after the more delicately textured yet infinitely more flavoursome langoustines sometimes available at Brat.

From meringue to sponge and ice cream, none of it was particularly appealing. This review’s procrastination was brought to you, in part, by staring slack-jawed at an internecine vegan doxxing controversy on Twitter. While eminently enjoyable, its unapologetic heft and swagger makes this autumnal/wintery dessert feel rather out of place as we start entering the warmer months.

This site uses Akismet to reduce spam. Hey, it’s 2018 and this is how things are now. The roughly U-shaped mezzanine, called Hide Above, has a nine-course tasting menu. The maple-like sweetness of the birch sap was a bit too much though, especially when taken with the celeriac cream, overpowering the goose. Dumplings with celeriac as the skin and avocado as the filling sounds like an Instagram vegan’s fevered wet dream, but don’t let that put you off. A nutty and umami broth came dotted with quinoa-like toasted buckwheat and delicate, quivering little mushrooms, all of which added enviable layers of flavour to the fish. I’m not going vegan anytime soon, but if I did then it’d be both easier and more enjoyable if more restaurants were…. The tart fig chutney proved surprisingly complimentary, but what really caught the eye were the doorstop thick slices of brioche.

The smokiness of the dark crimson then pale tentacle was aptly complimented by the sugary tannic sweetness of grapes, the bittersweet herbs and the lightly creamy labneh-like yoghurt.
