The Blue Barbakan

$$

This cozy independent restaurant receives rave reviews for its hearty Eastern European fare. You'll find primarily Polish dishes, including favorites like pierogi, bigos (a hunter's stew made with cabbage, wild mushroom, and sausage), pancetta-wrapped rabbit leg, and schnitzel, as well as vegetarian options. It's popular, so it can get noisy and reservations are suggested.

L'Autre

$$ | Mayfair

Having established itself as a wine lodge in 1942 before shifting gears and morphing into a Polish-Mexican restaurant in the 1970s, L'Autre is a bona fide Mayfair icon. Polish-Mexican fusion is undoubtedly rare on London's restaurant scene but L'Autre pulls it off; expect to find Polish classics (the pierogi are excellent) alongside Mexican favorites like enchiladas in a setting that would stand out anywhere, but certainly in the heart of Mayfair.
