If you've ever been lucky enough to go on holiday to Greece, you'll know there's nothing quite like a bit of Grecian hospitality. And private dining at HERA is all about recreating that warmth, natural charm and passion for bringing people around the table. It's a tradition that the team may have learned in the Med, but they're bringing to London beautifully.
The restaurant was founded by a group of restaurateurs inspired by memorable meals shared in some of the world's leading dining rooms - which isn't a bad place to start. Their ambition was to create a destination that captured the same sense of occasion while celebrating the flavours and cultural heritage of Greece. The result is a contemporary restaurant that has atmosphere and charisma, with a stand-out menu to boot.
Inside, large windows fill the restaurant with daylight, while the open kitchen brings a sense of theatre to the dining experience. For relaxed private dinners looking to soak up the buzz of the restaurant, there's a stylish, semi-private dining area that can be booked for up to 40 guests. While for blowout seated dinners, the whole restaurant can be hired for 100 people. Looking for a London restaurant with outdoor space for your private dinner? HERA boasts a spacious outdoor terrace able to accommodate up to 80.
Menus draw inspiration from across Greece, combining familiar ingredients with a modern approach. Guests might begin with grilled octopus served with fava bean and pico de gallo or smoked aubergine paired with za'atar honey and smoked yoghurt, before moving on to dishes such as charcoal chicken skewers, fillet steak with beef-fat roasted potatoes or stuffed aubergine with feta and tomatoes. Vegetarian options feature throughout, making group dining straightforward for mixed parties.
