Felt like walking into the Tardis - insalubrious exterior, but once inside, it was spacious, warm, light filled, with well executed food (had a Spaniard in our party) and lovely service. Given we went at last minute on a busy Xmas party Friday, it really was well above expectations!

Lovely indeed, fantastic food. Great service. Seemed a bit chaotic when we arrived and they had to set our table up before we could sit. *considering we had pre booked, not sure why table wasn't already set.* Anyway everything turned out right and I would highly recommend this place. Staff were brilliant even with the struggle to pop the Cork on the prosecco which was entertaining. Restaurant is ideally placed, just a short walk (5mins) from Baker Street *or Marylebone (7mins)* Menu varied and good selection. Price wise....you pay for where you are, and for the food you get.
