Around 22:15 on a spontaneous Friday night last week, we found ourselves stepping into the world of Nonos. If you’re in the neighborhood, do yourself a favor and drop by. The service was top-notch, the drinks were crafted to perfection, and the desserts were nothing short of divine.
The place boasts two floors, with the basement offering a cozy retreat. On our next visit, we’re definitely claiming a spot downstairs.
Our drink order was a delightful mix of Mythos beer and a couple of their signature cocktails. The Mythos was a first for me, and according to our table neighbors, it’s a superior cousin to Heineken. Agree with the comparison! I did inquire whether the Dionysus cocktail was ordered more by men or women. To my amusement (and to the server) mine was adorned with flowers upon delivery. She had a good laugh as she set it down – a memorable moment for both I’m sure!
Despite the late hour, we indulged in a small plate of hummus, flatbread/pita, and of course, dessert. The hummus was a revelation, easily one of the best we’ve ever had. For dessert, we were treated to trilece cake and baklava. If only they were calorie-free, they would be the epitome of perfection.
I don’t say this lightly, but Nonos served up some of the best food we had in London. The only contender that comes close is The Sloane Club in Chelsea.
We don’t have many photos outside of the flower adorned cocktail, but Moses recommends Nonos.
