Sushi Samba London

Sushi Samba sits atop the Heron Tower in the City of London. It is a five-minute walk from the Sky Garden and Leadenhall Market, placing it well above the traditional street-level dining found throughout the surrounding district.

The room runs smart and elegant, but the real draw is the vantage point. While the city is full of restaurants competing for status, this venue relies on its height to distinguish itself from the ground-floor competition nearby. You are here for the combination of Japanese and South American cooking, which feels more purposeful than the generic, view-only lounges found in other skyscrapers. It is a more deliberate choice than the pubs clustered around the market, serving those who prefer their dinner with an expansive perspective of the skyline rather than a crowded corner of a local tavern.
