Novikov - A Luxurious Asian/Italian Restaurant near Berkeley Square, Mayfair

A little ways off Berkeley Square sits Novikov, an elegant bar & restaurant that specialises in Asian and Italian fine dining. Aside from the welcoming atmosphere and the decadent food, Novikov London is known for keeping two separate dining rooms for each of its speciality cuisines.

One can only imagine that this separation reflects the attachment to culinary identity and respect for two different culinary disciplines. That said, a Novikov booking means more than just a nice meal. It’s an opportunity to enjoy the finest culinary art pieces in London.

The Atmosphere

The Novikov Asian dining area is dark, elegant, and reserved, similar in style to high-class exclusive Tokyo bars. Wooden ceilings, cracked and beautifully lit stone walls, and an open vegetable and seafood display resemblant of Asian food markets. The vibe is without a doubt strong, and the cultural identity evident.

The Novikov Italian dining area, on the other hand, is much more open and airy. It’s warm, welcoming, and adorned with a rustic, natural feel. Once you walk in, you’ll be received with the sound, smell, and warmth of their burning pizza oven. You’ll be sat on a rustic wooden table facing their suede walls, or next to the decorative barrels if you’re lucky. Last but not least, until your food comes, you’ll get to enjoy your view of their rustic chandeliers and their intriguing design as a whole.

The Novikov Menu

The Novikov Asian menu is heavily influenced by Chinese cuisine, featuring items like woks and dim sum. However, what we recommend you check out are the Japanese sections of the Novikov menu. The kamameshi, robata and teppanyaki dishes are absolutely divine.

The Novikov Italian menu is incredibly diverse, featuring a strong selection of Italian classics as well as modern variations - all are prepared from fresh ingredients grown in Novikov’s own garden. Given how popular Italian cuisine is, chefs need to bring something new to the table so as not to blend in. What we can tell you is that Novikov London definitely doesn’t blend in.

Entertainment

While the dining areas don’t have any kind of side entertainment as the restaurant aims not to draw focus away from the food, the lounge/bar area is a whole different game. Located on the lower ground floor, the bar area is where you can enjoy the hottest beats by the hottest DJ roster: Urmet K, Jon Sa Trinxa, Spencer Mac and more. You’re also guaranteed to have a ball, if you like mingling with the more mature crowds.

Novikov Reservation

Getting a Novkiov reservation can be very challenging given the different rooms and menus. Because no one wants to take a risk when a special occasion is at stake, we recommend you get a Novikov booking as early as possible. This also applies if you'd like to go clubbing in London afterwards.

Novikov Dress Code

The Novikov dress code is smart which, according to the restaurant, means no hats, shorts, or sportswear. When it comes to footwear, we recommend that men wear smart shoes and women wear heels.

Location

Located in Berkley street right off Berkeley square, the people behind Novikov chose the perfect place. Not only is it incredibly close to the Green Park subway station, but it’s also a three-minute drive away from The Cuckoo Club - one of the hottest clubbing venues often frequented by A-list celebrities.

Opening Hours

All Week: 12:00 PM - 1:30 AM

Are you looking for a venue that is as perfect for a special occasion as it is for a business lunch? Novikov London is the way to go. Meanwhile, if you’d like to go clubbing afterwards, you can contact us and we'll suggest the best option for the night for you.
