Very good food but underwhelming for two Michelin stars and the price tag.

Outstanding kaiseki, unfortunately a bit too Mayfair-ish for what it is, as it would benefit from a more intimate and traditional setting. Very expensive.

When going to a 2-Michelin Star restaurant, you expect to have a spectacular experience. This was alarmingly not the case. The food was outrageously over-priced. We had to run to the restroom at one point to spit out bad fish. The only saving grace here was the sommelier - he was spectacular.
