Gaia Mayfair

You're on Dover Street, deep in Mayfair's tailored suit territory, and Gaia pulls off something genuinely tricky: it makes Greek food feel sophisticated without turning it into something it isn't. The kitchen respects the classics—proper spanakopita, grilled fish that tastes like it swam that morning—but there's a refinement in the execution that sets it apart from the usual suspects. The space is slick but not sterile, the sort of place where you can have a proper business lunch or bring someone you're trying to impress without feeling like you're trying too hard. Service gets it right, and the wine selection goes beyond retsina, though they do that brilliantly too.
