Southwark

Fodor's Review:

This place is a throwback to the days before martinis had to be chocolate. That isn't to say the excellent bartenders can't fashion you a fancy, newfangled drink (in fact, the key lime martini is pretty fabulous), just that you won't necessarily need one, sitting up against the simple-yet-elegant bar. The food—consider it "French countryside"—is also excellent.
