The Palomar, Middle Eastern restaurant in Soho, United Kingdom.
The Palomar is a restaurant in Soho featuring an open kitchen bar where chefs prepare dishes drawing from Southern Spanish, North African and Levantine cooking traditions. The space includes counter seating for solo diners alongside a separate dining room for larger parties.
The restaurant received Michelin Bib Gourmand recognition starting in 2014, becoming established as a significant part of London's dining scene in Theatreland. This acknowledgment secured its position as one of the area's most important eating destinations.
The name comes from the Spanish word for dovecote, reflecting the Mediterranean regions represented in its cooking. You can sense this connection throughout the space, where the design subtly echoes the architectural traditions of Southern Spain and North Africa.
Located on Rupert Street, the restaurant serves lunch and dinner with both counter and table seating available for different group sizes. The space can get busy during peak hours, so advance booking is advisable if you want to secure a seat without waiting.
The kitchen sources fresh seafood daily from Cornish fishing boats and features wines from small independent producers. House spirits arrive in pouches rather than bottles, a choice that reduces packaging waste and environmental impact.
