Jamavar London is a Michelin-starred destination on Mayfair’s iconic Mount Street, where the grandeur of India’s royal palaces meets the quiet confidence of London refinement. Inspired by the elegance of the Viceroy’s House, the restaurant offers a palatial yet intimate dining experience defined by warmth, grace, and timeless hospitality. Under the direction of Culinary Director and Executive Chef Surender Mohan, Jamavar presents a masterful expression of pan-Indian cuisine that unites the rich, celebratory flavours of North India with the nuanced, spice-led traditions of the South. Distinctive small plates and royal kebabs, alongside slow-cooked curries, are balanced with vibrant coastal dishes, many inspired by treasured recipes from the Nair family archives. The menu is rooted in regional authenticity, elevated through meticulous technique, and crafted using the finest British produce.

“Dining at Jamavar to experience their 2026 Michelin Star excellence was a highlight of my trip. We tried the Mango Tasting Menu curated by Celebrity Chef Surendar Mohan, and it was spectacular. I was particularly impressed that they offered a dedicated Vegetarian version, ensuring the flavors were just as intricate and thoughtful. The entire evening felt incredibly special. The hospitality is world-class, and the service is seamless. A special thank you to Rahul Patel and the entire staff for making us feel so welcome and looked after. If you want to experience Indian cuisine at its highest level, this is the place.”
“My daughter and I were on a quest. The best butter chicken in London. This place was incredible! We ate it the first day and went back 3 days later. Beautiful presentation and outstanding taste. Quiet setting and very friendly folks. Nice location and outstanding dinning experience. Everything we tried was exceptional. Best butter chicken in London.”
“One of the best indian food I have ever had in my life! The samosa mutter chaat was the prefect flavour bomb to start off the lunch, followed by a nicely grilled paneer tikka. The star of the show was of course the paneer lababdar with rich taste of tomato and spiced with chilli . My partner also enjoyed his butter chicken a lot. The palak mushroom, tadka da, rice and breads were fantastic compliments. We left satisfied with a full belly and we thought the set lunch was of good value. Staffs were attentive and helpful, the interior was beautifully designed. Jamavar’s michelin star is well earned :)”
