Fantastic atmosphere and lovely service. The food was interesting and seasonal. Great wine choices, but the costs of the wine go up quite steeply quite quickly. It would be great if they had a few less expensive bottles to that it would make it a bit more reasonable for a mid week dinner.

Amazing food with quality cocktails and friendly, attentive service. This was one of the best meals I’ve had in London. The pork chop was the highlight. This is a great sharing menu overall. The small plates portions are generous for the quality of ingredients and price points.

Lovely relaxed feel with a vibrant atmosphere. Interesting choice of smaller plates catering for all tastes. You must try their bread and butter. Good vegetarian options, fish dishes and larger more meat dishes. Varied wine list but City prices. Pleasant friendly service - all in all a very nice lunch

I loved the mood of the place with its candlelit cosy interior, somehow both quiet and lively at the same time. I found the dishes not only delicious but also very unique - like the fried pink firs or the brown butter cake. The staff was also helpful and friendly. Really recommend!
