The best Tapas bar in London owned by a friend of mine funnily enough called José, no need to book but you may need to wait 10-15 minutes at busy times for a table. Trust me - worth it!

José's more formal restaurant - great for lunch or dinner. Also has a private room for 10 which I use for business lunches - awesome!

Great little spot for lunch or dinner on the Thames in the City. Nice private rooms in the basement and a great selection of South African wines. My current favorite for business lunches.

So, you want to see London from the river? How about you take the cable car from 77 to the O2 and then catch a fast boat down to Westminster. I do this instead of taking the Tube often.
