Situated on the crowning corner of London’s St James, Sael -named after the Old English word that signifies season, time and occasion- is Jason Atherton’s homage to the diverse heritage of the British Isles, blending traditional flavours with global influences.

Open from breakfast through to dinner and late-night drinks, Sael offers a menu rooted in traditional recipes, catering to a wide range of tastes. The kitchen, led by ex-Pollen Street Social Executive Chef Dale Bainbridge, offers options such as a set lunch and prix fixe menu, making an ideal spot for a mid-work meal or pre-theatre visit.

Upstairs, you'll find 'Apples & Pears,' a sleek and edgy bar where art meets attitude, complete with a DJ booth for late-night entertainment.

Sael also offers a variety of private, semi-private, and exclusive hire spaces, perfect for any occasion.

I was really looking forward to eating at this new Jason Atherton enterprise. The three-course lunchtime menu is good value for money in this day and age although the choice is quite limited. For example a choice of two desserts, one of which was missing the key ingredient. On pointing this out, no apology offered. Would I go again? Probably not.

Booked to come here after the Times review. Really disappointing and way over priced. Service was dreadful. Scallop and razor clam starter was luke warm and cloying. Brill and steak mains were good but side dishes were hopeless. Chicken was dry. We couldn’t face desert so can’t comment.

Good points. Lovely staff and the food was so delicious and original. Would love to return again just for the cod dish. However Music and other noise way too loud. Also the greeter tried to give us an impossible table. Way too close to next door tables.

Frequent traveler to London, who made a reservation following a positive review in Time Out. I was not disappointed. Bright spacious restaurant near Picadilly. As I was alone, I sat at the bar. A very delightful lunch due to an attentive staff, excellent menu, and scrumptious food. Highly recommend.
