    Really, a Gem for lunch as that’s when we went. From being received for our reservation to how seating was handled to presenting and payment , all were just first rate. Food explanations from the well thought spring menu were thorough but succinct. Recommend the turkey meatloaf greatly and have beignets at the end. Loved on Downing Street for nearly the octet and this was my first visit. 🖼️🎬🎥✍️👀

    Very small but fun place to eat. Entertaining to watch a steady stream of people photographing the building from across the street. Had not appreciated the link to Friends….Great food, would recommend.
