Located in the heart of Covent Garden, Gilgamesh offers a unique dining experience where the ancient legend of Gilgamesh meets the bold and exciting flavours of Japanese, Chinese, and Southeast Asian cuisine.

The interior is inspired by a grand Babylonian palace, featuring golden accents, bronze details, and rich dark woods. The setting is warm, striking, and full of atmosphere from the moment you walk in.

Their menu is perfect for sharing, and for everything from casual dinners to meals that honour a special occasion. Start off with small plates made for sharing, like bites of crispy tofu, sesame prawn toast dipped in sweet chilli sauce, or minced wagyu tacos topped with a pineapple salsa.

Their signature dishes include boneless yuzu apple-glazed chicken with a sweet butter sauce that hits the right notes of sweet and savoury. Their ribeye bulgogi is tender and flavourful, a classic Korean comfort food elevated and served with creamy chive mash. For seafood lovers, try the delicate and velvety miso Chilean seabass.

Gilgamesh brings together great food, service, and style in one unforgettable experience, a perfect spot for anyone looking to enjoy something truly special in London.
