"Now out-of-towners, we come up to London for matinees at the National, and lunch beforehand at House. This place is more than excellent. Welcoming, efficient (as they must be, everyone eating has a deadline to be in their theatre seat) and the food is inventive...and absolutely delicious. I had smoked duck with red cabbage (it was the red cabbage that put The Other Half off that dish, but when he tasted mine he had a re-think) with a puree that would give even red cabbage a good name. I then had cod, perfectly cooked, with a clam or two and a delicious sauce and wonderful mash. TOH had sea food or fish pasta dumplings of some sort, they too were delicious, and the cod too. He had a pudding which he loved, and I had cheese. It was truly lovely, and reasonably priced. Thanks to all at House."

"As the gentleman sat in the table next to me put it, the restaurant could easily get away with serving whatever as people would come anyway. But they don't serve whatever. It was my third visit since the NT restaurant reopened as House, and each time I was amazed how good the food is this time was no different. I dined alone, service was sleek and discreet and made me feel at ease despite being late for my reservation and having only an hour before the preformance. The cured mackerel was a delight, very palatable with a silky and creamy mash and gentle textures of beets. Cod was cooked to perfection, its melt in the mouth flesh flaky and skin crispy, balancing beautifully with a squash puree, romanesco and a sprinkling of toasted pumpkin seeds for a bit of crunch. Have a go pre show or as a standalone experience if you fancy clever seasonal cooking at reasonable prices. A lot of places in London get away with higher prices and charging you more for it. A standing ovation indeed."
