The food is amazing! We had steak and the flavour was so good, the chips were superb as well. It is first and foremost a chophouse and therefore specialises in meat - the ones we saw looked superb. The menu is a little confusing but the very good waitress talked us through it and made sense of it. Overall, definitely recommend.

Beautiful restaurant in the heart of Covent Garden. Great decor and atmosphere- cosy and comfortable. Set lunch was very good and excellent value. It was very busy and thus initial service was a little slow, but otherwise excellent, and no pressure to finish/leave (our booking was 2.00pm). Would definitely return.

We were greeted by really lovely members of the team, I arrived a fair bit early and there was no problem with me sitting at the table whilst I waited for my party to arrive. The food was good and the service continued to be top notch. We were surprised as had walked past the restaurant so often in the past, definitely one to come back to.
