My favourite dishes from one of my favourite fish restaurants
*Rick Stein*
J Sheekey is a lovely fish restaurant: the service is second to
none, and if I want to have a great night, that's where I'll go
*Angela Hartnett*
For the secrets of London’s most venerable fish restaurant look no
further than J Sheekey Fish. From pollock to potted shrimps, crab
to Cornish fish stew – here are dishes beloved of Sheekey’s
fashionable clientele since the 1890s. Add some interesting
vegetable ideas, and a slew of puddings – either rib-sticking or
airily light – and you have a compelling kitchen companion.
*Stella, Sunday Telegraph*
A pearl. If you're looking for a slice of the high life, at very
reasonable cost, seek out this beautiful (intimate and Deco-ish)
annex to Theatreland's old-school fish favourite, where divine
oysters head up a sophisticated light-bites menu

Sheekey's is a slick show and still one of the hottest tickets in
town

Today the freshness and availability of all J Sheekey restaurant
ingredients mean that they have no restaurant set menu, wonderful
fresh selection of dishes of the day, and no sittings, make
Sheekeys one of London's finest.

Celeb haunt J Sheekey brings its fishy know-how to the page in 120
