Lita: Al Fresco dining returns to Marylebone Michelin Star restaurant

The sun is shining brightly over London, and the city’s restaurant scene is getting ready for the summer.

Lita, Marylebone’s intimate bistro, was recently awarded its first Michelin star, has reopened its sun-dappled terrace, bringing a fresh new rhythm to the city’s al fresco dining scene.

Tucked along a peaceful side street just off Marylebone High Street, Lita offers an inviting setting where guests can unwind outdoors over Chef Luke Ahearne’s fire-led Mediterranean cuisine.

The terrace strikes a balance between relaxed and refined, making it ideal for long, leisurely lunches or golden-hour dinners.

Dishes celebrate bold, seasonal flavours with a contemporary edge - think bucatini Cacio e pepe with sourdough pangrattato, mafaldine with pistachio pesto and smoked burrata, or Cornish pollock with Jerusalem artichoke and roast chicken butter.

To complement the menu, Lita is also serving a new selection of seasonal cocktails alongside crisp whites and biodynamic wines—perfect for sipping as the sun sets over one of London’s most charming neighbourhoods.
