    Whilst on the train to London, to attend the restaurant they sent an email to say they would not be opening for lunch (my booking was at 1pm) and would only be opening for their evening service. This was a special event. They couldn't even be bothered to phone to cancel, just an open table notification. So had to find another restaurant at extremely short notice for a celebration lunch, having spent travel costs to get to this restaurant. And then get in touch with my guests in time to ensure they didn't attend and could make it to another restaurant.

    Food was absolutely exceptional; lovely ambience; however having travelled all over the world my wife and I had a unique poor experience in being asked to change table after having chosen our meal because the table was wanted for other diners.
