Expert Review for Jeru Mayfair, London

Nestled in London’s chic Mayfair district, Jeru is a masterclass in modern Mediterranean elegance. The moment you step inside, the moody, opulent interiors—think velvet banquettes, amber lighting, and artful floral installations—set the stage for a dining experience that’s as visually arresting as it is gastronomically thrilling. Chef Ron Blaauw’s menu is a love letter to sun-drenched flavors, reimagined with precision and flair. Standouts include the cured sea bass with preserved lemon and smoked trout roe, a dish that dances between briny brightness and smoky depth, and the lamb shoulder slow-cooked in Sangiovese, which falls apart with a nudge of the fork, its richness cut through by tangy yogurt and herbaceous gremolata. Even the hummus—velvety, topped with spiced lamb—transcends the ordinary, served with pillowy house-made flatbread. Every plate feels like a curated journey, balancing tradition with avant-garde technique.

What truly elevates Jeru is its seamless fusion of conviviality and sophistication. The staff exudes warm professionalism, guiding you through a wine list that champions lesser-known Mediterranean gems (try the crisp Assyrtiko from Santorini). Save room for dessert: the halva chocolate mousse with tahini caramel is a revelatory twist on sweetness, while the pistachio-laced baklava offers crunch and nostalgia in equal measure. Yes, it’s a splurge—entrées hover around £40—but this is Mayfair dining done right: indulgent yet unpretentious, inventive without losing soul. For a special night or a treat-yourself moment, Jeru delivers an experience that lingers long after the last bite.
