A fusion of Music
and Flavours
The Strings restaurant celebrates people, seasonal flavours, and live music. We are located in the prestigious County Hall building just behind the London Eye and opposite the Big Ben. Since our opening in February 2022, we serve both quality interpretations of traditional meals and new dishes.
The menu is curated to allow you to sample dishes that reflect the depth of Italian cuisine and Spanish Tapas, using modern techniques whilst remaining true to tradition and regionality. The kitchen team takes great care in sourcing the best local, fresh, and seasonal ingredients.
Taking inspiration from Julian Bream, a London guitarist, the restaurant owner will take you on a sensual journey of live performances of famous pieces by composers such as Rodrigo, Tarrega, Albeniz, Granados, as well as Verdi and Rossini.
At The Strings, we believe that when food, music, and the perfect atmosphere come together, it results in a momentous experience!

Classic Guitar time
The lights go off, the air stands still, the musician goes on stage. Silence. Now the first tunes of the classical guitar gently fill the room. A magical moment.
*Classic Guitar Music playing everyday from 7 pm onwards, every 30 mins for 5-10 mins
Food Time
Once the last note has fallen silent, the lights go on again. It's time for the next round of tasty Italian & Spanish Tapas accompanied by a sip of classic wine. A pleasure for your senses.

SANTY, OWNER & GUITARIST
I’ve always been passionate about the London guitarist Julian Bream, since my childhood.
One day, I had the honour to meet him in person and decided that “guitarist” would be my profession.
After having obtained my Diploma with the highest appreciations “Cum Laude”, the passion for the guitar made me discover other countries such as Germany and France. Wherever I lived, I have always made sure that more light is put on this magical instrument. Today, thanks to The Strings I can finally give greater visibility to the classical guitar, right in the city of my idol, Julian Bream!

What our Customers SAY
What our Customers SAY
The amazing food combined with the music, is without doubt an unmissable experience. we have been back three times since! and are never disappointed! such a lovely team who gives wonderful service. book in advance!
We knew the owner/chef played guitar, but we were not expecting such a virtuoso performance. Performing classical music including Verdi and Puccini with a left hand and amazing nuance. Certainly the performance was an unexpected treat.
Santy is the proprietor and the chef and the guitarist. He is extraordinarily friendly and welcoming, which attribute combines with the lovely classical guitar and the excellent food and wines inspired by his family’s native Sicily to make a singular and memorable experience.
