Gilgamesh is more than a restaurant; it's an immersive experience set in a Babylonian palace spread over three lavish levels and set in the heart of Covent Garden. Adorned with gold, bronze, and dark woods, it brings the epic of Gilgamesh to life. The Pan-Asian menu offers a culinary journey, blending Eastern and Western flavours with influences from China, Japan, and Southeast Asia and complemented by an extensive cocktail and wine list.

The venue features intimate booths, dramatic bars, and dining areas inspired by ancient Babylon, with lush greenery reminiscent of the mythical Hanging Gardens. Guests can explore the exotic garden of Zion or the luxurious dining city of Babylon, each offering a unique atmosphere for creating unforgettable memories in this spectacular fusion of history and modernity.
