Looking for healthy and tasty meat-free food in an attractive setting? Next time you’re passing through Oxford Circus and hankering something good to eat, keep newly opened restaurant, Ethos, in mind.
When vegetarian food is done well, it fills ya up without bogging you down and provides lasting sustained energy. That’s how the meal I had at Ethos had me feeling during a recent dinner there.
Ethos is a self-service/pay-by-weight sort of eatery but minus any hippy dippy or down market vibe. In fact with its fireplace, silver birch décor, leather seating, and marble surfaces, Ethos is a rather luxuriant setting.
Buffet prices are £27 per kilo, and I reckon most typical meals would run about £15. So not cheap, but I found quality and variety of dishes to be really good. I liked everything I stacked on my plate, especially courgette feta fritters, super fiery kimchi, and a vegan carrot cake (desserts are priced per item). There’s an okay wine list, a more than decent selection of beers as well as a nice mix of cocktails, juices, and coffee.
FYI, the restaurant does an unlimited brunch on the weekends for £17 per person which a hot drink and juice (there’s a Bellini Brunch option for £24 per person as well).
I’d have no qualms doing another dine at Ethos and wouldn’t hesitate to bring non-vegetarians there to eat.
Ethos is located at 48 Eastcastle Street, W1W 8DX. Find out more at ethosfoods.com.
