About the restaurant

A sense of poised restraint defines Lusin, a rare ambassador of authentic Armenian cuisine in the sophisticated heart of Mayfair. With a subtle yet confident hand, the kitchen pays homage to centuries-old gastronomic traditions. Flavors that evoke Armenia’s vivid landscapes—pomegranate molasses, tart sumac, gently smoked meats—arrive layered and composed, creating a dining experience that feels both deeply rooted and quietly revelatory. Distinct from more ubiquitous international fare, Lusin’s menu reveals itself as a study in contrasts and balance. The unmistakable scent of char from slow-roasted meats mingles with bright, herbaceous top notes: coriander, parsley, and mint woven deftly through starters and sides. Signature dishes draw upon the region’s rich palette, utilizing nuts, seeds, and dried fruits in ways that feel intentional rather than ornamental. Beans and legumes are employed with considered simplicity, allowing their earthy flavors to shine without distraction. The understated luxury of the setting reflects the food’s own sense of refinement. At 16 Hay Hill, stylish contemporary touches coexist with nods to Armenian heritage—though embellishment is minimal, letting the cuisine remain the focus. Plates arrive artfully arranged, yet never overwrought; each component is given space to assert itself, and the visual presentation underscores a respect for natural form and color. Lusin’s mention in the Michelin Guide speaks to the precision and care that underpins each element of the experience. Textural nuances are front and center—crisp herbs against velvety purées, the crunch of toasted seeds offsetting the tenderness of charcoal-grilled lamb or chicken. Dishes are, above all, harmonious, highlighting Armenia’s culinary history while avoiding nostalgia or excess. This sense of equilibrium, of ancient technique reframed in a modern context, endows Lusin with its quiet distinctiveness. Rather than overwhelm diners with bold statements, the kitchen guides them through a gradual unfolding of aroma and taste, each course offering something contemplative and new. Lusin carves out a thoughtful narrative in London’s dining scene—where authenticity takes precedence over flourish, and the true spirit of Armenian gastronomy has space to speak for itself.
