Moro restaurant in London’s Exmouth Market may retain its reputation as one of the hippest restaurants in one of the hippest parts of the capital, but this Clerkenwell restaurant still focuses more on good food than its own image. Moro’s décor with its polished wooden floors, long zinc bar, open view to the kitchen and its charcoal grill and wood-burning oven, is functional and welcoming.

    We went to QCH based on David Lebovitz May 7, 2024 article about eating in London. He wasn’t wrong. Waiter was witty and knowledgeable. Every course was amazing. Our only regret was that by the time we got to desert, we were no longer able to eat another thing. That’s on us.

    It was perfect from start to finish. The food is flavourful, original yet classic and delicious. The restaurant is beautifully lighted, the noise is surprisingly low for such a wide space, and a special thank you to our waiter James who was lovely, gave us good advice and a special treat for my mum’s birthday. It’s a truly special place !

    The Parlour room was beautifully decorated. There was a slight delay with the food arriving to our table. The sandwiches and hot savory were tasty, however, sadly the selection of scones were all rather dry. The tarte tatin was tiny and the Alaska tarts were soft. Overall the sweets were disappointing.

    Quality Wines by name and by nature - interesting off-beat wines, not cheap, but well worth exploring, and very knowledgeable staff to help you select. Can’t wait to return and explore more of the list! Food is tapas-style, great for sharing, narrow but interesting and entirely adequate selection, and absolutely superbly prepared and presented. Given how busy it was, those chefs did an amazing job. Well done! Staff are all young, energetic, knowledgeable and eager to help. Full marks. Well done!
