A savory tart filled with creamy spinach, a delicate blend of cheese, and flaky pastry for a delightful starter or snack.

"the increasing opulence of Süd-London has expanded to trendy." streatham with new, cost-intensive restaurants, among them this tapas bar with many backend sessions this place is wonderful. great atmosphere, excellent (and charming) service and fantastic eating. I can't speak for the a la carte menu (yes), but the tapas is very good, and the waiter has suggested how many dishes were enough so that we don't get over. by the way, timeout is correct that the ratatouille is a steh dish. also the sardines are highly recommended. garlic mushrooms were spiced by solid portobello, properly baked, pimentos pardon tenderly with garlic, both patatas...read more"

"has used the app to find somewhere near and try something new. we were both very impressed by going into the door. the staff was all courtesy, friendly and professional. the menu was so tempting and eating was really good. it was a long lunch time with a great atmosphere, but not too loud, so we could sit and chat. can not comment on the male institutions, but the women was excellent. will definitely go back."

"Ultra-pleasant neighbourhood spot on a quiet street with excellent food, attentive service, and a well-crafted wine list. It’s also the sister to Trinity, the Michelin-starred spot in Clapham Old Town. Both restaurants are helmed by Chef Adam Byatt. Bistro Union is a gem. It’s super comfortable — the kind of place you could happily settle in for an afternoon, as the gang in the bar were doing on the day we visited. There’s a straightforward menu of things that you’ll want to eat. You can go traditional — starter, main, dessert — or mix and match plates to share from snacks to bigger stuff. It’s flexible enough to fit any mood or occasion. We went a bit wild and did both. Snacks included delicious comté gougères and brown crab arancini. Homemade bread and whipped butter was so good that we asked for a second round. For starter, the chicken liver foie gras parfait was Michelin quality, and the burrata la latteria with romanesco and chilli was like a bowlful of spring. Mains were rabbit in mustard sauce and duck confit. Both were perfectly done. The rabbit falling off the bone and the mustard sauce well balanced with sharpness and creaminess. We were too full for dessert. But Bistro Union really delivered — with fantastic bistro-style food and in bringing us together over their delicious dishes."

"I made a reservation for 5:30 PM tonight two days ago and drove over from Liverpool with my elderly parents, only to find the restaurant completely closed and boarded up. This is absolutely unacceptable. Why would you take a booking if you aren't open for business? I went into the shops on either side of the restaurant to inquire, and they informed me that many people have been facing the same issue for weeks, including some who were charged for takeaway food only to discover that the restaurant was not operating. I am incredibly outraged. I also tried calling the phone numbers for both the Hale and Knutsford locations, but neither connected. I strongly advise you to AVOID this place at all costs."

"we were last Friday for a family dinner. Unfortunately there was a series of current cuts in the opposite, which broke out most of the nearby companies, but somehow the highland continued to wear! eating was nice and served with good humor from the personal under very difficult conditions. we even got a bottle of wine when we were gone! highly recommended for eating, service and value, but light at ambiente."

"Excellent food and wonderfully friendly staff! I ordered the chicken piccante, and it was outstanding. The only suggestion I have for improvement is the lighting, which was quite bright; otherwise, I would have rated the atmosphere five stars as well. I understand that some people might prefer it bright, so this isn't a criticism at all. Service: Dine-in Meal type: Dinner Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4"

"Good food, authentic taste, fantastic place to eat out with family and friends. I had a great experience however what did bother me though was the manager at woodlands on Sunday 17th. He was so rude to the girl serving us and to this lady who was walking aided by her assistant and a stick. She was trying to go to the restroom and cause woodlands Marylebone doesn't have a wheelchair access toilet she had to climb a few stairs! With much difficulty due to her condition she was trying to do this and her assistant and grandchild were helping. This manager in a slightly loud stern tone asked them to close the toilet door, asked her assistant grandchild to leave the area. I was appalled at...read more"

"Not really what I expected from a fish restaurant in the City. I liked the rustic beachy decor, and the informal service. Front of house was friendly and efficient but the kitchen was appallingly slow.We started with Colchester oysters which were perfectly loosened from their shells. We did have a minute wait between ordering and actually getting our oysters.There was another minute wait for mains after getting the oyster shells cleared. First to arrive were the sides we were sharing. Chips were pleasant enough, but they were advertised as fish roe chips on the menu. No evidence of fish roe. The Asian slaw was a nice mix of finely julienned carrot, cabbage and red onion but way too salty being dressed solely with Thai fish sauce and sesame oil and black sesame seeds. It really needed something acidic and maybe a hint of sweetness. Up to this point, everything was off the regular Fish Market menu and fairly priced.For mains we had two orders of the crab roll and an octopus burger off the Claw menu. Claw is a pop up and food stall that has a temporary residence at Fish Market. Given the size and sparse amount of seafood, they were a rip off at a pop. Not terrible, but quite disappointing. My crab roll tasted primarily of commercially prepared mayonnaise. Owner of the octopus burger had the same complaint. There was some samphire on my crab roll but it added more visual interest than taste. The bread was the best part of the sandwich, being fluffy and drenched in butter before griddling. But for a sandwich with indifferent filling and some excellent bread is pretty steep."

"Newly opened we were warmly welcomed and shown to an excellent table in the window area. First impression was the tables are well spaced so private discussion is easily achieved. The menu concentrates on fish although meat dishes are available. There were 5 of us dining and we were treated to some superb cooking with not a single complaint from my normally critical colleagues who ordered a variety of dishes. All the fish, whether Bream, Sea Bass or Giant Prawns were cooked to perfection. Atmosphere was muted as, having just opened to the public, it is not widely known yet. This will change as the standard of cooking and service were outstanding and I would unhesitatingly recommend it."

"I went to Franklins to treat my Mum to a Valentine’s Day dinner. Staff, particularly the waitress serving us, were initially friendly and we were seated quickly. Our orders were taken quickly but it was downhill from there. We had to wait over 20 mins to receive our drinks and I noticed the couple next to us that were seated a good 15 mins after us were already drinking from a bottle of wine. We waited over 45 minutes for our starters and were only served after we asked (the couple next to use were served their starters before us). Similar to our starters, we had to wait over 30 mins for our main and we had to ask for updates twice. We were told the kitchen were having issues and I was offered a glass of wine. We were finally served our main (again, the couple next to us were served their main before us) to which mine was bland. After over 20 minutes waiting for our desert (during which the couple next to us left after finishing their desert and paying), I asked for an update and I was told the kitchen was busy today. After discussing with my mum we decided to cancel the desert so we could leave as it had already been 2 hours since we had been seated. The waitress explained the deserts were ready but I insisted we leave as it had been over 2 hours since we had been seated. The waitress then brought the bill. It had no discount on the set menu (I expected they would’ve applied this automatically based on the constant delays) and it included service charge. After I requested the service charge be removed, the waitress walked off visibly agitated in a huff. After returning with the new receipt she then asked me “have you ever worked in hospitality?” This is unacceptable. My mother and I were clearly subjected to very poor service and to be asked that question after I, rightly, requested the service charge be removed is quite frankly rude. Being busy is not an excuse for poor service. Accept the number of diners you can handle whilst still providing good service. This ruined dinner with my mother. I would not recommend this restaurant. Update: The owner has since contacted me, apologised, offered me a full refund and an opportunity to return with some drinks on them"

"We had the most lovely evening. The food was the best we have had anywhere even better than the steakhouses in London! The cocktail menu is amazing and they were even happy to tweak the ingredients for us! Marc and Jamie were very attentive and so funny, they made our night! We even got a happy birthday pudding for my husband which means they must have actually read the booking to see it was for a birthday great attention to detail. Thank you"

"although the restaurant was not overcrowded, eating was delivered in the wrong order, our cots come at the same time as our main courses. the main course was very poor cod with Thai curry was cold and tasteless (an achievement to make a curry so bland! I ordered as a page, described as 'old grains', which turned out to be quinoa, why not say so on the menu? again it was cold and tasteless. the restaurant confirms itself as open to 10 o'clock, but until 9.15 the staff began to turn the air conditioning so that it was so cold we had to wake up our hunting, even if we had not finished our meal, turn off the lights and begin to clean adjacent tables and clean the floor of the kitchen area we sat near. overall the attitude was involuntary, and eating (compared to what I bought in the deli in the past was very bad. I wouldn't eat there again or recommend to others to do this."

"I had a great experience at the Blue Legume. It was quite busy on Sundays for brunch, so even though we had a reservation, we had to wait a bit. However, the wait was not too long. The brunch was delicious and reasonably priced. We had 2 Mediterranean Brunches and 4 coffees, which came to £24. The decor and atmosphere were beautiful, and I would definitely recommend it for brunch or a nice weekend lunch. We were able to enjoy our meal for over 3 hours without feeling rushed or asked to leave, which was great for us, but may have contributed to the long queues."

"Valentine’s Day meal was amazing as were the staff who kindly let us in despite some complications. My seafood pasta was absolutely delicious and packed with seafood. The calamari starter also took me right back to my travels on the Amalfi coast. Just a note of warning however, at peak times I would call to confirm a booking because when we arrived we were told they were receiving more open table bookings than available seats so bookings made on the night were actually invalid even though opentable was showing availability they however still seated us as the guy calling the shots was kind and appreciated that we had come all the way."

"Cozy space, friendly servers and nice service, but food was terrible. My fiance and I shared a barbecue chicken pizza and a calzone — the calzone was okay but rather unremarkable (especially for the price), but the pizza was just awful: far too salty, barely any trace of proper barbecue, and without any exaggeration at all the chicken bits tasted of fish instead of actual chicken. Did not want to cause any fuss so I didn 't bother speaking to a manager after being offered the option after giving feedback — this is the first and last time I 'll be dining here."

"off the marylebone high street, this is a simple place to miss out for restaurants in the environment. the restaurant is often not very crowded and simply enough to get a table on a Friday night. it is not the fantast of the place, but the eating I think is the pointed notch. for a couple of times we have tested some of their people grills, and they are all up to the brand. The mint lamb and the chicken kewers were especially I think very well. the prices are also very moderate, especially compared to other restaurants in the environment."
