    The restuarant was very busy as expected during the holiday season but having to wait 20 minutes to get two cocktails wasn't a good experience. We were half way through out starters before the cocktails arrived. The food was good though,

    I found this little gem of a restaurant for an early evening business meal and it didn't disappoint. The prices are very reasonable for London and the food were perfect sized portions and really tasty. My guest had the octopus to start which he said was excellent and the main courses of the chicken and the steak bavette (which was perfectly medium) were really tasty. We had the house red wine which again was great quality and a very reasonable price. We will definitely return!

    It was a spectacular dining experience! The food was 10/10, and the team is both highly professional and friendly. I would personally recommend asking for a table near the kitchen, so you can watch the magic unfold. Be sure to go for the Tasting Menu with wine pairing – it's an excellent choice. Whether it's for a date night, impressing someone special, or simply enjoying good food on your own, this restaurant is a perfect pick.

    My friends and I had an enjoyable midweek lunch and the service we received was very good. The meal selection was rather restricted as we were told on arrival that several items weren’t available but luckily we had sufficient choice as it turned out. The overall cost was reasonable and our experience was certainly pleasant enough to encourage us to return.
