   Food service was painfully service during a very busy lunchtime sitting. Took four hours to complete a four course meal. Main course for one person at least arrived tepid. Didin't send back as had already waited an age for it. Hard surfaces amplify the noise coming from neighbouring tables. Very interesting wine list with value from "off-piste" regions.

   I am a foodie, with a lot of experience with Michelin starred restaurants. Might have been an off night, but this one was not up to snuff. The service: First off, the hostess was charming, friendly, warm and perfect. The waitstaff was kind and doing their best, but definitely not professional. We were seated a full 15 minutes before someone took our drinks order. The restaurant was not full, but there were a few tables of six that apparently they couldn’t cope with. (I had to flag someone down! In a M* restaurant! And they told me they couldn’t help, and more waiting for the sommelier, who when she came did not impress. I was ordering by the glass - first a Canadian Chardonnay that was fine and then a Turkish red that was good.) The setting: It’s a lovely space with an open kitchen. We had one of the tables next to the window, but the lighting there was not good. The other tables were better lit. Plus, we were cold. It was really draughty every time someone came or went. The food: The starters were disappointing! Can you believe the Drunken Lobster was actually disappointing?! I was so excited for it after the FT article. The lobster was undercooked (!) and the sauce was meh. My dining companion had the artichoke starter and pronounced it “too vinegary”). The mains were delicious. I had the chicken, the vinegary sauce here was perfect. Partner had the lamb chops, also perfect. Then for desserts, I had the Hokkaido potato thing, it was fine, but not a standout. Hard to cut with a spoon or fork, and they did not provide a knife. The one thing that was truly impressive out of the whole meal was the Turkish breakfast dessert. Now, this was truly inventive, special, delicious, memorable. We only had 2 glasses of wine and the bill was 340 pounds. I really don’t care about the money, this is what you sign up for — but if I were a Michelin reviewer, they would have lost at least one star on the basis of my experience. Overall, a very good restaurant, but not 2 Michelin *s

   Had an outstanding evening. The food was incredible and was such a great atmosphere in the space. Really loved our time there. Chef Jonny was great, all the food was delicious.

   We came because of the Michelin recommandation (two stars !). Our experience was ruined by the noise level throughout the night : lively for a pub, inacceptable for fine dining. We were quite sad because the food is excellent and the staff very welcoming. It could just be inappropriate expectations from our part based on a cultural misunderstanding - but I feel that a lot of people there were visibly disappointed. Place to be avoided !

    Ich wollte mein Sohn zu seine Abitur was schönes schenken, und ich dachte zusammen essen in eine 2 Sterne ⭐️ ⭐️ Lokal in London wird ihm sehr gut gefallen, leider habe ich davor die Rezessionen nich gelesen, es fehlt mir schwer an dieser Lokal etwas Positiv zu finden außer der Wein Empfehlung ! Ich bin bei 2 Sterne Lokale anders gewöhnt, von Gruß aus der Küche bis zu Hauptgang hat alles sehr nach Zitrone geschmeckt. Das Lokal ist sehr laut. Die gemessen Lautstärke lag ständig zwischen 80 und 93 Decibel. Ich kann diese Lokal niemanden empfehlen der Preis umgerechnet von 400€ passt nicht! Wir waren sehr enttäuscht
