Having spent years supplying London’s top restaurants through their separate wine businesses, Joe Haynes and Benedict Butterworth have joined forces with Tom Hurst, who has worked at Brawn, The Marksman, Levan, and most recently as Head Chef at Lasdun, to launch the trio’s first restaurant together.Located in a Grade II listed building on Cloth Fair, Cloth Restaurant is part of a historic row of buildings in the City of London that survived the Great Fire of 1666. Down this atmospheric alley opposite St Bartholomew church, Cloth is taking over a double fronted corner site that’s beneath the former home of poet John Betjeman and next door to the two oldest residential buildings in London. Inside, low ceilings, wood floorboards with antique wall lights and artwork create a cosy, intimate atmosphere, while marble tables, long dark wood banquettes, antique crockery and cutlery will create the feel of a classic bistro.

Decimo is not a typical Michelin Star restaurant - there are no foams, gels or sophisticated plating arrangements - but the food and wine is really good, the service professional and attentive, and the atmosphere warm and lively. We started by sharing a black bean and fried plantain taco and a tuna tostada, which were tricky to share, but delicious. Then we an Iberico pork chop and a beef fillet, sharing patatas bravas, marinated tomatoes and hispi cabbage - all really good. Best patatas bravas ever! For drinks we started with the house champagne, then Chablis with the pork, and merlot with the beef - all really good quality. A lovely night out.

One of many restaurants, several of which are Italian, on this street. We both had pizzas, which were large and tasty, washed down with a bottle of the house wine. My wife had a tiramisu which she said was very good and I just had a coffee. At the end we were offered glasses of limoncello which was a nice touch. The service was friendly and efficient. Well worth a visit.
