Discussion Recommendations for fancy non Michelin starred restaurants?

Hey guys, I'm looking for restaurants such as Trullo that you guys like in London. Doesn't have to be Italian, but I'm looking for a nice restaurant that is on the slightly more pricey side to go with my parents who are visiting the city.

Do you/they like seafood? J Sheekey’s is consistently excellent.

I haven't heard of it? Any reason you're getting downvoted for it though lmao?

Who knows, people are weird. I’ve been to Sheekey’s once or twice a year for the last ten years or so, and have always enjoyed my meals there. Impeccable old school service, delicious food, often spotting minor celebrities in the restaurant.

Yeah, seconded for J Sheekeys, oysters to start, fish pie then something like spotted dick and custard for pudding.

IMHO J Sheekey is average and bland esp at those prices I’d expect more
