"Excellent evening, we sat in the Air Mens Bar, which checked the menu and the wine list about an excellent gin and tonic as we were early. A 3-course menu was presented as it was the festive season. Basic choices of meat, fish and vegetarians, but not an extensive menu, unlike the wine list that has a very good selection. The food was tastefully presented with appropriate portion size, some can say small, but it didn't let you flower. We were served hot nuts and warm bread with 3 types of spread, also the blue cheese was declared delicious and we are not fans of blue cheese. We had tomato gazpacho with sun-dried tomato and the blackened halibut. Cod as a net and also Venison, both cooked to perfection. Soufflé on the desert menu and it is always our choice. Also cooked for perfection. Paired with rose from proven E and a pint noir from the Loire Valley, our choice. Restaurant is very nice, tables are not nearby, piano game from the gallery, attentive service, but not over camp. Restaurant was very busy, but you never felt rushed. Tea and coffee afterwards with some nice fours and a night capsule. A really nice evening. Very recommended"

"We had an excellent evening at the restaurant. We were seated in the airy bar area and enjoyed reviewing the menu and wine list while sipping on a delicious gin and tonic. We were presented with a three-course menu as it was the festive season. The menu offered a good selection of meat, fish, and vegetarian options, although it was not extensive like the impressive wine list. The food was tastefully presented with reasonable portion sizes, some may find them small but they didn't leave us feeling bloated. We were pleasantly surprised by the warm nuts and bread with different spreads, including a delicious blue cheese spread which we enjoyed despite not being fans of blue cheese. We ordered tomato gazpacho with sun-dried tomatoes and blackened halibut for starters, followed by cod and venison for mains, all of which were cooked to perfection. For dessert, we chose the soufflé, which was also perfectly cooked. We paired our meal with a rose from Provence and a pinot noir from the Loire Valley. The restaurant had a pleasant atmosphere with well-spaced tables and live piano music. The service was attentive but not overbearing, even though the restaurant was busy. We ended the evening with tea, coffee, petit fours, and a nightcap. Overall, it was a lovely evening and we highly recommend this restaurant."

"The tasting menu was well balanced and the food really extremely good. Whilst waiting staff are very keen to please, the service did seem to slow down as the evening went on. We had an 8pm booking and left at 11.45. It's nice to take time over a meal but after 11pm I admit to being impatient for the last 3 courses to show up and was too tired to really enjoy that last bit sadly. Would be great if it could be done in a 3 hour window especially as the food requirements are predictable. Would recommend albeit would tell friends to be prepared for a long wait. Thankyou Etch."

"Service really really poor. Booked via open table, when we arrived we were scolded by staff for not detailing whether we wanted food and drinks. No table reserved. Food was nice but took ages. Staff were not attentive at all, never asked us if we wanted more drinks. Didn't ask if we wanted desserts or coffee. The place was empty and we were forgotten about. No good enough, in fact I would say avoid and I'm sorry if any visitor to Edinburgh goes here as they will be very disappointed. Poor, poor, poor."

"We were disappointed to find that the chicken dish we wanted was sold out, and we felt like we had to leave earlier than we wanted because they closed at 6 PM, which is earlier than usual. That said, the experience is always pleasant. I do find it a bit pricey, so while I would definitely return, it might not be as frequently due to the value for money."

"Unfortunately cocktails and Prosecco was not an option, but I saw people ordering them when our two hours was up. How can a bar not have these essential available all the time? We arrived at 2pm on a Sunday, not sure if they sold out or what. Also waited a long time for food and drinks, had to follow up with waiters."

"The food was really delicious, and the service was friendly. It is very loud in there between but then gets quieter as families with young children tend to have left by then. One thing though the service was a little bit slow when we’d finished our mains. No one collected the plates for about mins and we didn’t get offered a dessert menu/ couldn’t get their attention for about half an hour and by that point we didn’t fancy pudding anymore!! Shame, because the desserts did look lovely. We’d deffo go there again for the food, and would just time it a bit later to avoid the kids as it does get very very loud!"

"On the day we booked and went to the restaurant I checked the website which gave three vegan pizza options. Once there we discovered those options were not on the menu, We were told that the website isn't up to date: and it still isn't, I've checked again today. There was no real apology and no offer to make up for this by providing extra vegetable toppings, which would have been good customer relations. I ended up paying £16.00 for a pizza topped with just tomato and mushroom. To make matters worse my pizza and that of my friend were cold and soggy. In fairness, our other companion had the tagliatelle salmone which he enjoyed. Often eat in Primrose Hill but won't be going here again."

"I was aimlessly wandering around and came upon this gem in a neighborhood lined with pretty shops and gorgeous homes. It seems to be frequented by local residents, which was exactly what I was looking for, and it has a little shop that sells fruits, vegetables, pasta, olive oils, etc. I ordered Spaghetti Bolognese, which was perfectly cooked, hot and topped with just the right amount of parmesan. The meat sauce has to be the recipe from someone's little, old nonna. It was out of this world. I couldn't finish it so I took the leftovers to go along with a scrumptious piece of strawberry cheesecake and a bag filled with oil, vinegar, chips and sweets! Thank you, James I wish I knew how to spell your real name!!"

"authentic Italian restaurant that even aubergine in her pizza tastes delicious. I visited this restaurant twice for dinner after I inaugurated and the other time I had one. both of them were delicious. Personally I like these pizzas that you can eat with a fork and a knife and a good amount of cheese toppings and VIP pizza has delivered exactly the right one. I ordered vip burrata although it was delicious, but I felt the amount was less for two people. I also ordered a tiramisu that was a bit underwhelming, I tasted better tiramisu. the next day I ordered a simple tomato pata that was beautiful as they made home pasta. I also ordered something they called sandwich that was fine tasty, but difficult to eat."

"jak’s bar is one of my favorite bars in south ken. a noble high-end bar with excellent music and a beautiful cosmopolitan london ambiente. they should however learn that mosque mules are served in metal jugen, but they would forgive them because they do everything else beautiful. not here. their pizza and appetiser are excellent. this spot is one of my favorite places in london."

"Couples visit for a birthday on a quiet Wednesday evening. Was hoping for a great meal as it 's the first time we 've managed to get out since having a baby 3 weeks ago and organising childcare etc is always tough. 10mins after ordering we were told the starter that was labelled 'Gluten Free ' isn 't actually gluten free and was mislabelled on the menu so my partner had to change her order which of course is disappointment. Concerning as this was only caught as our waitress double checked with the chef. I had ordered bread and olives for starter however only the the bread was brought out until the manager noticed I was missing the olives, oil, vinegar and side plates. They had also brought my 'half starter ' out without my partner having anything brought out. The mains were prompt and tasty albeit very expensive for the steak. The wait staff were uncommunicative and apart from the manager seemed oblivious to our issues. Disappointed that nothing was taken off the bill and there was even the default 10% service charge added! Not one to kick up a fuss but won 't be returning."

"On entering I waited at the bar for 5 minutes before anyone even acknowledged me. In fact, in the end I had to ask to be served. I asked them why I had been ignored and they said they were so busy. No excuse I’m afraid. Anyway, after that we were led to our table and the service was good thereafter. In fact the servers were lovely. So on to the food. My scallops looked nice but were uncooked. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t like them over cooked, just to be clear, but they were jellified in the middle, ie. Undercooked. I sent them back. My fiancés bone marrow starter was exceptional however. So on to Sunday roasts. We would give them 6/7 out of 10. The red cabbage was sickly sweet and the roast potatoes were under par. Not crispy enough. Why oh why do they stack them in a pile on top of each other in plastic trays in the kitchen which only serves to steam them and ruins their crispiness? This is such a bug bear of ours. Anyway, overall it was an okay meal in a nice pub. We would go back, but get a grip of the spuds please!"

"This place is great value for money and offers very good tasting pizzas! Admittedly, I am not a big pizza fan, but I do enjoy a quick bite here. The pizza dough and style is similar to that of Franco Manca, but I personally prefer ICCO. I would have given this place a 4 Star rating if only the food toppings were more evenly spread over the pizzas and the pizzas consistently looked the same; but I can understand and appreciate why others have given ICCO a higher rating. ICCO is very clean and the staff are very friendly. ICCO is definitely worth a try Please note, at the time of writing, the meat toppings were not Halal."

"I had the Campagnuola pizza, i thought it would be really good, being your signature pizza, but it was just like having a cheesy naan bread but for £13.50! I think you should state clearly on the menu if a pizza has no sauce (such as tomato) on the base and I bet if you do that, no one will order it! To be fair my friends' pizzas did look good and they enjoyed them. It was just this one that was disappointing."

"The delivery was excellent and the food arrived piping hot. Unfortunately, the tomato sauce was quite bland. Overall, the pizza was enjoyable but tasted similar to a frozen one from a supermarket."

"Yes ! lovely evening , great food so much better than going to a rip off bar /pub food variety good , its hot , tasty and reasonably priced …. would love a little bit more pasta on the plate … a smidge more would be perfect … but I would not want quality to slip as I would stop going ! Went for a 2nd visit last Friday lunch time for a pre Christmas lunch with to good friends … wonderful food , great service and a lovely way to while away the afternoon. So happy to spend my money in a place like this as they deserve every penny I paid . Thank you all for a wonderful afternoon ."
