Police and the air ambulance were dispatched to Poland Street shortly before midday on Monday.
A man had been stabbed multiple times and was declared dead at the scene by 12.20pm. His identity has not been confirmed.
Footage from bystanders show a number of police and medical vehicles parked up on the side of the road and on Oxford Street.
Police have arrested a man over the incident and a crime scene is in place. Crowds had gathered to see what had happened while police taped off the road entirely.
Footage earlier showed police detain a man outside Arirang, a Korean BBQ restaurant. The Met said the attack took place in a building but would not confirm which one.

It's illegal to carry a knife in public.
so you mean to tell me that it's already illegal to have a knife in public, but the knife still managed to make itself available to be used in this crime?

The incident is alleged to have involved workers at the restaurant, which claims to be the first in the UK having opened in 1975.
