"Somewhat reminiscent of the very chic Restaurant L'Elephant in Ibiza, this new addition to the Clapham bar restaurant scene has left me a bit undecided. We tried it on a perfect sunny Spring day, which certainly helped give it a cool holiday vibe gorgeous sunshine pouring into the room making the all white interior and sparkly furnishings seem refreshing and different for the neighbourhood. It has a small terrace at the front with doors onto the street, which again gives it a relaxed, slightly mediterranean ish, atmosphere. The food was ok, bit bland and nothing special at all (probably done on the cheap), but pleasant enough and hit the spot. Sitting just next to the terrace on a high table in the sunshine reading the paper was a lovely way to spend a Sunday morning. However, something about the place doesn't make me want to give it any more than 3 stars. Without the sunshine it would have been a totally different experience I couldn't imagine visiting this place during the winter. It will probably only work on a sunny day to keep the holiday vibe alive and excuse the tacky decor around the edges. I can also imagine the white sofas and chairs looking grubby in about 3 weeks, and it being full of WAGS! The crowd this morning were quite relaxed, but I fear that won't last. So all in all I like what they are trying to do, especially as I love L'Elephant, but my worry is that it will become a magnet for a certain type of punter, which if you know I mean by that, it may not be your kind of place! If you can see through the fake glitz of the furniture, the mediocre food, and enjoy the perfectly reasonable latte, you'll have a nice time."

"I have been looking forward to going to this place for a long time as it’s local to me. On entry I did feel like it was an issue to the staff that I am exempt from wearing a facial covering even though I was...wearing a lanyard and a badge stating that I’m exempt. We were seated and showed the menus and ordered a good Sunday roast. When the food came out and the vegetables came out afterwards we asked is this for both of us or is the single portion they said it was for both of us but it was smaller than what one person might eat so complained and they brought out more vegetables for us which was very nice. The beef tasted amazing although the horseradish sauce was not necessary as it ruined the flavour that the beef which was seasoned greatly already. The vegetables seem to be dry like they’ve been cooked earlier but been sitting on a hot plate. My partner had the chicken with salsa Verde which was a little bit strange she did moan about the vegetables; Kale and beetroot are not your regular Sunday roast accoutrement. I went to the men’s toilet and all the urinals were overfilled no signage saying that the toilets are broken also the hand dryer didn’t work. After the meal we complained to our server about the things that we felt were amiss and he said he had to report to his manager also tried to say that they couldn’t get a plumber to fix the toilet. in my opinion they should have at least cordoned off the toilets and made alternative arrangements. When it came to paying the bill we asked to leave specific amounts including a tip after paying the first half and then the second half we were informed we couldn’t leave a tip via card no cash even though we had requested to do so prior to payment. Not rushing back here, have had so much better everywhere else. I do wonder how businesses stay afloat!!"
