Restaurant Story

Simple premise. Create a 7 course meal that flows from one course to next and pretend its a story. For me its as good as Heston’s fat duck without going into the middle of nowhere and at a fraction of the price. Service is crisp. Food is imaginative and a times quite creative. Mandatory dry ice was of curse included. Great experience.

One after another, the Full Story menu, kept on improving dish after dish. Special mention for the rabbit sandwich and the pork belly. Nice wine list as well. For special ocasions

Delicious food only surpassed by its service. The staff are so knowledgable and down to earth, made for a great casual atmosphere. Some in my group would give me the evil eye for leaving off a star, but there was one dish I had to force myself to eat (but that’s because I don’t like coffee flavoured things so that is just my own fault) and there were two other dishes in our Full Story that I ate to eat and didn’t wow me. Then again, I am a bit common so be your own judge! Overall though, I would definitely recommend and don’t be put off by my rating. The value is incredible and you are not far from Bump across the road if you fancy gin /​cocktails. The experience was lovely and a vast majority of the dishes were WOW YUM!

My god what an experience. I was looking for a gastronomy influenced restaurant for my weekend in London and searched for something similar to Fat Duck and came across Restaurant Story. Boy am I glad I did.
We got the full story and with all the little amuse bouchée dishes came out to something like 24 individual dishes. The coolest was the beef candle that melts into a pool for bread dipping. I was half expecting to need to eat at McDonald’s after, as other fine dining experiences had left me hungry, but this was a marathon eating experience and towards the end I wasn’t sure I wanted them to bring out more delicious food because I was so stuffed.
I can see why they have a Michelin star. The ambiance is casual but still very nice. I wish I could go back already!

La la la la la la la la lo-​ud
and after, you will be singing tom’s praise, out loud!
So, baby, now
Take me into your loving arms

I’m thinking out loud
Maybe we found love right where we are
Oh, baby, we found love right where we are

the end.

Booked a lunch reservation for my boyfriend’s bday. Got there around 1 and left close to 5! I compared this meal a lot to my Noma meal that I booked last year for my boyfriend’s bday as both chefs had worked together. (Lucky this time around we didn’t have to rush off to the airport compared to last year.) I loved this meal and all the extra courses, I can’t stop thinking about the quadruple layer butter (foe grais, pistachio, truffle, etc) with brioche! The presentation was excellent and each course the right size for the delicate flavours and textures. We also did the wine pairings and was pleasantly pleased with the variety of it (stout, clemencello, a mix of red and white wine). In my opinion I would say this was a better meal that my Noma experience and good value for it too! I would definitely come back here for a special occasion or recommend it for my food aficionado friends!

Once upon a time, on a not-​so-​faraway island between three A roads near Tower Bridge, there used to be a public toilet. One day, along came a great and powerful wizard (Tom Sellers), who used his powers to turn the loos into a nice, cosy, wood-​panelled building with lots of lovely bookshelves, and send foodies all over London into a hyped frenzy until they managed to get a booking here to try his food.
It was one of the strangest meals I’ve ever eaten. And I mean that in a good way. I think. The 4 of us went for the 6-​course tasting menu and chose our own wine, though with all the extra bouche amusers they brought out there were definitely no regrets for not going for the 10-​courses.
My friend and I squealed when the candle arrived in vintage fairytale holder, the girls having already swotted up in advance that this is made of beef dripping to dunk your bread into. The boys looked at us as if we’d lost our minds until we demonstrated for them!
The rest of the food then triggered an amazingly varied spectrum of reactions. Suspicion (then enjoyment) of the black ‘sqoreos’ — savoury squid ink biscuits made to look like oreos. Gasps of wonder at the prettiness of the razor clams with champagne snow. Confusion at why you’d serve crispy cod skin as a dish. Wincing at the bitterness of the black dill ash on the scallops and cucumber. Approving moans at the smoothness of the mashed heritage potato and turnip. Laughter at the rhubarb custard milk bottles and stripey straws at the end.
While I can’t pick out one dish that was especially satisfying then (and indeed I found the desserts disappointing), it was the creativity and playfulness on the plates that made this a fun experience. The service is also so friendly and welcoming, though some of the accents were a little too stong to understand exactly what was in each course (which only added to the adventure really!).
The story theme permeates everything from the menu to the décor, but hey I’m a sucker for a good fairytale. We left a copy of The Book Thief on the shelves from us to add to their massive collection. At £60 for the 6-​course menu it’s one for treat night, and you’ll need to book well in advance. You won’t struggle for conversation here either — expect the food to take up most of it!
Give it a go with some open-​minded eaters — we had a fun evening and all lived happily ever after :)

«The great thing about wild food is that you don’t need a PR agent to make it look good — it just is good.» — Miles Irving, forager
Just a couple of minutes away from Tower Bridge, dining at Restaurant Story felt like being in a forester’s house.
British sparkling wine went well with a set of 6 or 7 amuse bouches (I’ve honestly lost the count), long way before the first dish from a 10-​course tasting menu was served. The story of chef Tom Sellers has lots of pleasant surprises: bread dipped in a melting candle made from lard, quail tea, foie gras crème brûlée, dill ice cream. Not only a feast for your mouth but eyes as well — mouth-​watering dishes, impressive presentation.
The staff is really friendly and explain every dish in detail. There are no table linen in here, nor there is a dress code. You are here to enjoy the food and yourself in a small cosy urban oasis.
The cooking style reminded me of Fera at Claridge’s, and I have to say Restaurant Story has won me over Simon Rogan’s creation in London this time (yet to check out L’Enclume).
Prices are not cheap, but you get 200% for what you pay for such an experience! Getting a table is not that easy, so book in advance.
Would visit again? As soon as I digest all the 20 courses from my last visit :0)

I’ve had lunch here twice and was really impressed with the food & service both times. We ordered the 3 course lunch (£35) with came with generous amuse bouches. The fallow dear cooked 5 ways and the all lemon dessert stood out from the rest in terms of creativity & taste. I’ll definitely go back to try their 10 course menu.

We were very happy with our visit to Restaurant Story. All of the courses showed a creativity we hadn’t seen since our visit to the Fat Duck. And the generosity! Course after course after course after course. We both had the 10 course menu, but it felt like we had about 25 courses. (The ‘amuse bouche’ type courses came out one by one.) I am pretty sure we had had 7 courses before we had seen the first official course printed on the menu!
The bread and dripping was a highlight for me. The dripping was in the form of a candle which melted while the candle was lit. You just mopped up the dripping with the warm bread which was in a leather bag to the side.
The «Tale of a quail» was also innovative. Not really one course, but three mini-​courses: the first was a broth, the second was quail prepared two ways and quail eggs cooked just so and the third was a perfectly cooked piece of quail breast.
We included the optional course of raw beef, apple and summer truffle. We were warned that it was a rich dish, so we just had one of them to share between us. This was a wise move considering we had the other 24 courses to get through. The course as presented to us looked bizarre: an apple resting on crushed ice. But you just removed the apple lid to reveal the raw beef and truffle hiding within.
There were two dessert courses. My favourite was the almond and dill. The instructions were simple: everything green is dill; everything white is almond. It was an unexpected but inspired combination of tastes which worked well.
The service was knowledgeable and polished without being pretentious. We had quite a few different people delivering the dishes and explaining what they were. Everyone worked well as a team and ensured the evening was a treat for us. The bill was in the £200s which felt like excellent value for dinner at this Michelin starred restaurant.

An awesome meal as well as experience. We went with the 6 course meal but ultimately had 16! Don’t plan to rush… we were there for close to 3 hours!

An absolutely unforgettable experience. Everything was fantastic from the building with it’s leather bound hand rails, the colour matched books on the shelves and especially the food. After sitting down plate after plate of snacks were brought with an explanation of what each one was and the main meal was something else. It’s not for me to spoil the surprise but this is definitely a Story with a very happy ending!

When my friends started telling me about Restaurant Story, it definitely went on my list of places to try. I mean Tom Sellers has an incredibly pedigree from The French Laundry in California, Per Se in NYC and Noma in Copenhagen. Luckily my parents never know what to get my partner, so I always tell them a name of a restaurant we want to go to and they get us a voucher for that. Conveniently, the voucher allowed us to pre-​book our meal, so getting a reservation wasn’t a problem. We also had two friends that were intrigued by the menu so they wanted to join us.
So we arrived at 7:30 pm on a gloriously warm day and sat down for our meal. We ordered a fantastic bottle of champagne and decided on the 10 course meal with wine pairings to enjoy our evening. We also opted to go for the supplemental 11^th course of beef tartare, apple and truffle because everything about that dish is good.
I can definitely see the influence that Tom Sellers got from the restaurants he worked at. The presentation was impeccable and the wine pairings were sublime. Having recently been to Noma, I really saw the Noma influence right from the start as there were several tiny nibbles for us to have with our champagne (about six) before we even started into our courses.
However, everything was not perfect. There were some glaring errors that showed up during the course of the evening. I was really exited by the beef dripping candle. They light a candle made of beef dripping and you dip your bread in the «wax». However, it really didn’t work that way as there was already a lot of dripping melted at the bottom of the candle holder, and most of the candle wax didn’t really melt that much, so it didn’t really work out very well. Plus they removed the candle before everyone had finished their bread, so my partner was peeved. He did complain, and they did bring us a brand new candle and bread to have, but it really shouldn’t have happened in the first place. The scallop dish was nice, but the cucumber was a bit overwhelming and I’m not sure why there was dill ash as it didn’t really seem to add anything.
We got a piece of paper before a dish of foraged greens with Langoustine and a clam consommé. It talked about the power of PR in food and a bunch of other stuff that seemed pretentious and annoying to try to convince us how good it is to forage for really terrible greens. Because the greens were awful. Bitter and unpleasant. It reminded me exactly of a very similar dish at Noma made of foraged greens that were bitter and really just unpleasant and not something should be eating. If you want to convince me to eat something like that, make it TASTE GOOD, not try to spin it with some sort of piece of paper claiming how awesome it is, but really it’s only awesome if you’re a hipster. (Yes, I’m stating that foraging food is only for hipsters because it’s doing something that tastes terrible but hipsters do it to be different.) And the lamb sweetbreads were overcooked and the lamb loin was incredibly tough and chewy. And for me the desserts were pretty much a miss. One was supposed to be like breakfast cereal. I don’t want that for a dessert, let alone breakfast. The other was a weird dill and almond dessert that sounded good, but ultimately tasted very little of anything except random bits of dill. I also didn’t get to have any coffee at the end of the night because the meal took FIVE HOURS and we had to rush to get a train (that we almost missed) because dinner too way too long. (The website claims the 10 course meal takes about 2.5 hours to complete).
However, there are a lot of really great courses too. All of the pre-​starters were great. We had a crab dish that was fantastic. I could have eaten about three of the foie gras courses because it was that great. The supplemental beef tartare was one of the best I’ve had. The pre-​dessert was very sharp and deliciously lemony. The mashed potato was pretty heavenly. There were also some good dishes including the onion dish (although it’s hard for me to trump the onion dish from Hedone).
And it’s super affordable. I mean we ultimately had around 20 dishes thrown in front of us for £80. You’re going to pay a lot more for a meal at The Fat Duck or Noma and getting a similar number of courses. I’d probably recommend it for people who want to try new food combinations and an interesting selection of courses, but I’m not going to come back for awhile. I’d need to be convinced that it would be worth going back to before some of the other, better places in London or before trying something new.

I tried several times to book a table at this first restaurant of British culinary rising star — Tom Seller and failed. I finally got a table for a Wednesday evening.
The food was exceptional. We had the 10-​course tasting menu and it was a great treat for my palate. Before the 10 courses started, we were presented with 7 bite size pre-​courses to wet our appetite. Though small, each one of the pre-​course was artfully created. My favorites were: blood pudding with apple, razor clam with vinegar ice, and biscuits with fish mousse.
The first course was Tom Seller’s signature dish: bread with dripping. «Bread with dripping? What is so special about that?» You ask. I had the same question. Turned out, it was genius! The candle that had been burning on the table was made from beef fat and now after 10 minutes of burning, there was pool of dripping on the dish below and we were supposed to dip the bread in the beef fat and enjoy. Wow, I was speechless.
Then we had 7 savory dishes ranging from onion and heritage potato to scallops and crab to lamb and foie gras. Each dish brought a new surprise and made you want more. Among the dishes, I love the scallop which had delicate flavor and the presentation was like a wonderful water color painting. The foie gras was also very special. It was prepared like a crème brûlée, with foie gras mousse topped with burned sugar. We were also glad that we added another course of beef tartare in apple. We had no idea what to expect and what came to our table was definitely not anybody would expect. It was a whole apple sitting on a pile of ice and when you lift the top, you found delicious beef tartare mixed with apple waiting to be enjoyed.
The we had our sweet endings. I love the almond and dill dish. It was really hard to describe this dish except these two ingredients were made into different forms than what we were used to and the two flavors were mixed to create something new and a great tribute to spring.
I absolutely love the food, every single bit of it. However, it would have been perfect if the services were better. We had several servers serving our table. One waiter was great, he was passionate about the food and explained the dish well. The others were quite unenthusiastic and omitted a lot of details of the dishes.

10 courses, regardless if it’s lunch or dinner. Be prepared to enjoy not food, but pieces of art.
I was excited to come here, especially since I got into a fully booked out restaurant! I called up, and after numerous rings, a man answered. Although wanting to make a reservation, he was intrigued by my accent and briefly interviewed me. «Where are you from, why do you live where you do, and why are you visiting» were key questions that were shot at me, in bullet speed! After being caught off-​guard and answering when prompt, he said «This is Tom, this is my restaurant, and I never answer the phone. But you sound great, let’s get you in here.»
Coming in for a late lunch, I thought I would cruise through a 10 course meal and be perfectly full. After all, I am not a fan of Mastercard restaurants (small plates, expensive, then leaving hungry). But if this place really lived up to what I’ve heard, I was looking forward to being full and happy at the end of lunch. Their wine list is lively, even including a wine from Gramercy Winery in Washington!
Although ordering the 10 course lunch, the chef in charge, Nathan, must have seen me watching him at work, as he ordered an additional 7 plates for me to try prior to starting my 10 courses.
By course 4, I was happy. the dishes were petite, but perfect getting enough full flavor without being overwhelmed.
By course 9, I was getting a little full, thinking this was a great experience. Not only is this worth the price you pay, but the quality was amazing! Each dish had no more than 6 ingredients, that when dissected, all were simple and not over-​prepared. However, when combined to taste the entirety of the dish as a whole, adds a creative and complex course!
By course 13, I dropped into a rare state of mind; FULL! A cold sweat started, as my belly felt overwhelmed! How could this be possible? Small plates… sampling bite after bite. is it true that I cannot handle anymore? I contemplated waving the flag… «I give up» I screamed in my mind! But by then, another dish came out!
By dish 15, I informed the waiter that although everything was amazing I regret to tell him I could not go on. But to my surprise, he cheered me on! This man actually said no to me, insisting that I continue my journey, even if it means just taking merely a lick of a lightly-​dipped fork. Convincing. a true food. a passionate server. OKAY! BRING IT ON.
After a 17 course lunch, 3 hours later on Friday afternoon on the 18^th day of October, 2013, I had succeeded! I won! haha! What did I win? I won a great dining experience, great food, great creativity, and great staff! So technically I didn’t win it, as I still paid for the bill at the end of the meal, but nonetheless, a superb place to come to.
Note– I didn’t eat another meal until the next day, and was still not even hungry at that time!

It is a little pricy but absolutely worth it. The restaurant was opened just 5 months ago and offers two menus, 6-​course or 10-​course. I ordered 6-​course, but it came with additional 6 snacks and 1 dessert. So it was 6 snacks + 6 courses + 1 dessert. The taste was amazing and creative. Highly recommended!!!
The menu was wrapped by an very old version of Charles Dickens’s Oliver Twist. Waiters and chef were 101% nice and friendly. They would explain every dish to you and answer your questions. It is close to London Bridge tube station and 5 minutes walking from the Tower Bridge.
Happy food travel!

Wow. What an epic and innovative dining experience. I was really impressed by Restaurant Story.
I went for lunch the other weekend with 3 friends. As it was lunch we ordered the 6 course tasting menu (for £45). The other option was 10 courses for £65. While that sounds expensive, for a 6 course fine dining meal it is rather reasonable.
To start we had a series of creative amuse-​bouches. 4 pre-​courses to be precise. Each was a mini work of art from these «oreo cookies» which were squid ink biscuits with eel cream, rabbit «fingers,» radishes stuffed with goodness, and edible flowers. It was an impressive start to the decadent meal.
Next up was the actually tasting menu which started with a candle and bread. Turns out that candle on our table that was lit earlier was not made of wax but was made of beef drippings! It was accompanied by some warm bread. Never before had I dripped bread into a candle, to start a meal… how different!
After the unique candle eating experience we moved onto «Burnt onion, apple, gin and thyme» which was really a series of onions cooked multiple ways. It was tasty but just onions and probably my least favourite course. The next dish was «Heritage potato, asparagus and barley grass» which was an artisan take on pureed potatoes with a perfectly cooked and displayed piece of asparagus.
For the meat course, we had «Pigeon, summer truffle and pine.» I know pigeon surfaces memories of horribly flithy urban birds, but this dish had one of that… it too was well prepared and tasted more like roast goose. After the pigeon, we had the «lemon» course which was lemon sorbet, lemon cream, and crushed lemon biscuits… a refreshing and rather lemony break before the actual dessert. For dessert we had Almond and dill which was almond ice cream with a dill like crumble. As I unfortunately can’t do much dairy, my almond ice-​cream was replaced by a rather elegant sorbet.
Dessert was followed by a few surprise dishes including a chocolate twirl and some small chocolate covered marshmallows candies.
Service was impeccable, with 2 wait staff serving us for 4 people, the level was on par with what I’ve experienced at Michelin 2 & 3 starred restaurants. The space itself which overlooks an open kitchen is also interesting albeit tiny. Apparently Restaurant Story was a former public toliet, hence the unusual side-​walk location. However kudos to the designers who did an amazing job turning this diminutive space that holds just a dozen tables into a light and wood-​filled dining mecca.
Great spot, highly recommended. Booking is hard — expect to book a month in advance.

The restaurant blends so well with its surroundings, I had to walk around a few times to find the main door. (Hint, it’s right next to the huge windows)
We opted for the 10 course menu for £65 over the 6 course for £45. Psh do I look weak-​hearted to you?
The waiter came over with several amuse bouches. The snacks kept coming: fried fish skin crackers, fresh edible flowers, radish stuffed with cream, pods containing pea and truffle, «Storyeos» biscuits sandwiching eel cream, rabbit pastries with beautifully aligned beets on top.
Then came the main menu.
1. Bread and drippings. Candle made of beef drippings, we dipped our seeded bread into its congealed residue. GOODBYE ARTERIES.
2. Burnt onion, apple, gin and thyme. Lovely dish containing burnt and crispy onions placed over an onion confit.
3. Scallops, cucumber and dill ash. Fresh and perfectly combined ingredients.
4. Mackerel, mermaid’s hair and strawberry. This was my favorite dish. The mackerel was tenderly cooked and the strawberries were slightly jellied.
5. Heritage potato, asparagus and barley grass. Beautifully spiraled potatoes served with delicious sauce.
6. Beetroot, raspberry and horseradish. Definitely my second favorite dish. The cheese was served chilled and went wonderfully with the raspberry sauce.
7. Pidgeon. The greens were done very well, and served with a sprinkling of edible flowers.
8. Lemon. Palate cleanser made with lemon curd, lemon sauce, lemon sugar crisp, lemon ice. The waiter gave us this dish with a shrug, «If you don’t like lemon…»
9. Prune tea, lovage and milk. My bf and I raised our eyebrows at lovage. It’s an herb, not a cuddling technique. This was served as curd type custard over a prune. Loved this.
10. Three Bears’ porridge. Presented with a picture of three bears carrying bowls labled «Too Sweet», «Too Salty», «Just Right», the tiny bowls of porridge were all combined with interesting toppings.
After the meal, we were both contently full, the 10 courses was indeed Just Right, and we went home feeling we were taken on an adventurous ride through the menu with amazing service alongside. Will most certainly come back.

Gather round children and find here a story of an epic meal.
I came to South London by way of tube intent on eating at a new spot highly spoken about by the locals. Searching for this building was a bit tough, not because of any hidden location mind you, but because there was no sign on this grand wooden building and no clear entrance to the door. Worry not, for I found my way in.
Sitting down, a menu was placed in front of my person. You have the choice of one of two options: A 10 course meal for £65 and a 6 course meal for £45. Being that it was time for lunch, we chose the later.
Before we could order though, a candle was placed down on our table to create ambiance (or so I first thought), and bites began to appear. These showed what culinary wonders were were in store for: crispy cod skin with sauce, eel «Oreos» with cream, stuffed radishes, rabbit with tarragon mouse. My goodness, my friends, my goodness. All amazing, but the rabbit shone as bright as that flame flickering from the candle in front of me.
And let us, for a moment, talk about the candle. Be it made of wax like other candles? Nay, friends, it was made of beef fat for dipping bread in! I was as surprised as you are now, but tis true. And thus began our meal with homemade bread and candle dipping.
Five other dishes followed their way through. Burnt onions with gin and thyme sauce that was a bitter treat. Soft beetroots with chilled raspberries and frozen horseradish (a stark contrast in flavours and temperatures that I’m not quite sure I cared for). Pigeon with truffle and pine. Having never eaten pigeon before, I have nothing to compare to with other tastes of this bird, but I think I prefer it’s cousin the quail or chicken to this. However, the lemon that came next, a frozen gelatoed concoction of the fruit with white chocolate, was divine. The heavenliest of heaven. And to finish, the Three Bears Porridge, each it’s own version of being Too Salty, Too Sweet and Just Right was indeed the just right way to end this meal.
I have documented each portion of this meal with photographs and included them here on this page of Unilocal,if you care to take gander for yourself.
The staff was this place was as friendly as any stranger I have met in my travels and the ambiance, well-​lit, casual and comfortable with hints of sly style. The menus coming in a book? Perfection.
Overall, a meal for the ages. And now children, you have heard the tale. Go on forth with you, I have nothing else to say.

Located just south of Tower Bridge, you’ll find this unmarked building. I wasn’t sure if I was at the right place. I wasn’t even sure where the door was. When I finally found some sort of entry way, I asked if I was in the right place. Story is a cute little restaurant, very open, very friendly inviting environment. I was seated right away and quickly offered a glass of water. I could tell from the start that the service at Story was going to be good.
Before we even decided which meal option we were going to go with (6 or 10 course), the servers kept bringing us little taster snacks for us… and not just one or two, I want to say it was at least or 6. After the final snack arrived, our server finally asked which option we liked and both Mr. Alex S. and I opted for the 6-​course lunch for 45 pounds.
Everything came out in a timely manner. Everything had spectacular presentation. Each dish had its own unique flair. Service was great, especially since my glass of water was never left empty. Of all the things brought to the table, I particularly enjoyed the rabbit sandwich, lemon, and three bears’ porridge. Oh yeah, I can’t forget to mention the bread that you dip into the candle made out of beef fat… mmmmmm
