Newly opened Bardo is a bar, restaurant, and private member’s club located in St James. With a hospitality industry as competitive as London’s, it’s hard to level and keep up with competitors – yet in its short time on the scene, Bardo has managed to impress on several levels; from dishes to service, to ambiance, and price-performance ratio. Picture dim lighting, sexy decor, genuine Italian food, tuxedo-wrapped waiters, candlelight, and a live jazz band. For those fancying an after-dinner drink, one will find the bar to the right of the main dining hall – or, the member’s only area to the left (for those lucky enough to enter, anyway). Find yourself immersed in a speak-easy-kind of atmosphere, and don’t be surprised if one or the other celebrity shows up to.
