Leon, 35 Great Marlborough Street, London, W1 | The Independent

I was lured in one day by the promise of healthy fast-food – as opposed to so many of its Soho neighbours, which offer either healthy food (no meat, no dairy, no fun) or fast-food (of which nothing need be said) – and soon I was scurrying back to work each day to eat slap-up "big dishes" of tangy Moroccan meatballs with brown rice and crunchy slaw, or sweet-potato falafel with punchy aioli straight out of the sticker-adorned brown-card box.

That and the fact that despite its reputation for turning out quick, tasty, healthy takeaways for breakfast and lunch, Leon has a little-known evening service, where you eat off a plate, rather than out of the brown boxes.

It's nothing like the big fast-food chains, thank the lord – but if you want a posh pit-stop pre- or post-theatre/ cinema in London, Leon is just the place.

The food is served in shoots, like McDonald's, so there's hardly any waiting, and it's neatly wrapped for consumption on the move.

All the food at Leon's is seasonal, well-sourced and, where possible, local.

It's not totally organic, but it's all free-range, which means you get well-flavoured food that tastes like it should.

Healthy, tasty food served quickly.

Enjoy this place Londoners, it's going to be huge.

It’s Leon, and my children were happily munching through halloumi wraps and ‘super grilled chicken pot’ sides, while discussing the merits of the orange juice versus the lemon, lime and ginger refresher, and dipping flat bread into pots of hummus.

The large open area in front of the counter is still recognisably a fast food joint, with its open floor space, counter and neon food pictures, like a train station at rush hour, but upstairs was at least nicely decorated and fun, lots of people eating salads with their iPads for company.

So we ordered and carried our chosen lunch upstairs – super salad with avocados, broccoli and quinoa, bursting with peas and feta, grilled halloumi wraps with burger gherkins and sauce, pots of chicken with mint, Leon baked fries with aoli, which were more like a waffle, the chicken burger, crushed pea salad and meatball hotbox.

Anyone interested in recreating Leon’s wholesome snacks, can do so at home with the help of a recipe book, Leon – Happy Salads.

The book sees Leon authors Jane Baxter and John Vincent bringing together 100 recipes for fresh, vibrant, delicious salads that will have you feeling healthy and happy.

Leon, London SE1, restaurant review - Telegraph

Review analysis
location   food  

On the basis we were not really supposed to be having a starter, then, C and I both had a salad, he the original superfood (£4.95) and I the smoked mackerel and beetroot superfood (£6.25).

But as much as I sound like a cranky old thing, I cannot deny they were tasty.

Once you have the basics in place – a delicious bit of fish, processed in a delicious smoky fashion – pretty much the only thing that can go wrong is if it is leathery, and I have never tasted softer or silkier.

The main cause of over-eating, in my life at least, is things being delicious.

At least not if you're on the M6, where these (north- and southbound) family-owned service stations offer seasonal salads and wholesome roasts with meat from their own farm (£6.70) Not all dishes here are super-slimming, but they're nutritious, made with the organic produce sold in the shop downstairs and through its veg-box scheme.

Perhaps it was April Fool's Day or I had nothing better to do, I can't remember, but I wrote that McDonald's profits were plummeting (which wasn't the case at the time) and that the company was taking drastic action by introducing healthy salads, organic meals and gourmet burgers to its menu.

When Leon opened last summer, with its emphasis on healthy, seasonal cooking delivered with speed, queues formed outside; critics (even the ones not normally on nodding terms with alfalfa sprouts) swooned; and it looked like the start of a phenomenon.

Located just off Regent's Street in London, and standing shoulder to shoulder with the conspicuous consumerism of the West End, Leon is a small fast food restaurant and takeaway.

So what, apart from speed of service, separates Leon from old-fashioned "health food" restaurants?

Leon embraces all the current culinary fads, fancies and fashions with gusto and not, as is often the case with healthy eating, with neuroticism: the ingredients are seasonal and occasionally organic; the chicken is free-range; the coffee is ethically traded; many items are low-carb, low-GI, vegetarian-friendly, allergy-friendly, gluten-free, dairy-free, sugar-free, light, healthy and great for your sex life (I made that last one up).

We welcome it; the company’s commitment to animal welfare, sustainability and healthy but tasty food is admirable, and the simple culinary creations work well.

The hot dishes we sampled were both satisfying and fresh: grilled halloumi combined perfectly with a sweet chilli relish, while aïoli chicken was both light and creamy.

A brown rice and fresh coleslaw accompaniment (the same for all hot dishes) was wholesome and flavourful.

Breakfast baps, organic porridge, various wraps (mexican salsa, chilli chicken), superfood salads, and fruit- and spice-filled tea-time treats like cranberry and pecan flapjacks provide sustaining and delicious snacks or meals.

A welcome addition to the Spitalfields food court.
