   Came in on the final service of 2024 for my dad’s birthday with my family. From the outset we were very well looked after by the knowledgable and charming Jacob. A model example of how to come across friendly and attentive without being at all overbearing. The food was absolutely sensational and despite my mother having a shellfish allergy, every care was taken to ensure her dining experience was not impeded. Truly exceptional food, a good wine list and very clever cooking going on in the kitchen. Couldn’t recommend higher and I wish Tom and the whole team all the success in the world for this venture.

   Incredible service by our waiter, it was the best service we have experienced in a long time. Great food and so much fun to experience everything. It was so good.

   We had been to Cornstone before and were looking forward to this place, esp as recently the latter had closed down.... On arriving the waitress showed us to a bar seating area, I mentioned we'd requested a nice quiet table, she then said it was that or nothing, I was quite shocked... Then a supervisor came over and I said the same thing, we were past customers of cornerstone and had requested a nice quiet table, same response.... We found this quite rude, especially when they had tables downstairs.... So it was the bar or go elsewhere.... So much for a romantic meal... On being seated i went to the loo downstairs, that was damp and smelt bad, sadly another negative....  The food arrived which seemed ages from when we ordered it, 12 oysters @ £58 (when u can get 6 for £11 in whitstable )..... they were delicious however.... Then the Kuiv and the lasagna another 20 min after.... One wonders if they were short staffed that evening.... I had to ask several times for a glass of wine (which we were charged double and only received 1 glass 🤷‍♂️).... Dessert was lovely.... Overall the food was nice, the ambiance not so and the service not great (except off anastasiia)  she was friendly and helpful....   The bill for 2 was £228.... Not cheap I sadly wouldn't go back.... Definitely not cornerstone and can't see it getting a star anytime soon sadly....

   Tom Brown knows seafood. Pearly Queen is extraordinary—every single thing I put in my mouth was sublime. My sole critique is the tasting menu, at 45 poinds per person, seems reasonable at first glance until you realize its not enough food, and leave still hungry.

   Beyond my expectations. A great atmosphere in terms of friendly, attentive and professional service. The food was excellent as expected and the ability to surprise with flavours was what made the food and drinks magical. My friend and I had a lovely time and I would recommend ❤️
