Square Meal Review of Quo Vadis ?

He wowed the crowds at the Blueprint Café, and now chef Jeremy Lee is injecting fresh pizzazz into Sam and Eddie Hart's Soho aristocrat. Top billing goes to a daily menu of pared-down dishes bristling with seasonal ingredients and palate-tingling flavours: summer might herald perfectly cooked squid and samphire salad, salt duck with pickled gooseberries, or lamb's sweetbreads with almonds,peas and mint, while winter might usher in first-rate calves' liver or pheasant pie. Desserts include the likes of sticky toffee pudding and ice cream. The roster is geared to Soho's comings and goings, mixing ‘bites' such as the best-selling smoked-eel sandwich with a pre-theatre set deal and a full carte. Lee's flamboyant personality extends to an embarrassment of flowers in the fabulously tasteful dining room – but the contented buzz, ‘low-key glamour' and assured service are pure Hart brothers. A modern-day classic.

  1. Quo Vadis is one of the eating establishments owned by Sam and Eddie Hart, who also own Barrafina and Fino. They clearly have and eye for good chefs and know how to run a restaurant. Quo Vadis is no exception in that sense. The service is exemplary, the decoration nice and the food of high standard. The cuisine at Quo Vadis is however different from Fino and Barrafina in that the latter two restaurants focus on Spanish cuisine whereas Quo Vadis is centred around modern British cuisine...

    Wine, food and other pleasures :: Quo Vadis: that

    The premises have been used as a restaurant for several decades, going through a various hands – I recall about 15 years ago, when it was part of Marco Pierre White's empire, the good enough food and some interesting Damien Hirsts on the walls. More recently, soon after it was taken over by Sam and Eddie Hart, I went with a friend and it was good. Solid, but a touch stuffy and formal. However, late last year they persuaded Jeremy Lee to move there from the Blueprint Café and things have moved into a different gear. Jeremy Lee is one of the best exponents of seasonal British cooking and has the confidence and experience to let the ingredients speak for themselves. Certainly not cheffy and fussy. What's more, the restaurant itself has had a makeover, simplifying the decor and using lighter colours that make it feel much more airy...

Jeremy Lee

Quo Vadis’s Chef - Blueprint Café Book Club A native Scot, Jeremy Lee spent his youth surrounded by unlimited supplies of fresh produce. Having decamped to London, he started working with Simon Hopkinson at Bibendum, where he honed his culinary style, creating the deceptively simple dishes for which he is now known. From 1992 until 1994 he was head chef at Alastair Little's Frith Street restaurant, & then launched Euphorium in Islington. From 1995 he was the driving force behind the Blueprint Cafe & became renowned for combining unusual textures & flavours to enhance the natural quality of ingredients. In 2012 he moved to Quo Vadis, serving signature simple, ingredients-led dishes.
