"This restaurant is truly exceptional. I went there to celebrate a special occasion and was blown away by the exquisite, fresh, and imaginative dishes made with simple, seasonal ingredients that were beautifully prepared. The wine selection was excellent and complemented the food perfectly. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, going above and beyond to make our dining experience enjoyable. I highly recommend this restaurant."

Some good dishes, however service was awful, nobody there and had to wait 15 mins to be asked what we wanted to drink, no recommendations, 20 mins and empty glasses to be asked if we wanted food had tasting menu, empty plates left on table for ages, staff seemed more interested in chatting to there mates at the bar than seeing to any of the needs of other customers.

We came for dinner with friends last weekend and were not disappointed. The range of French wines was impressive and the waiter picked us a corker of a rioja-style red. Then came the food which was equally as impressive. Highlights were the slow cooked lamb, Nduja on toast and the chocolate and olive oil cake. We are so lucky to have this little gem at the end of our road and will definitely be back for more!

The food and ambience here is just truly special. What a hidden gem! The flavours are just surprising yet comforting and delicious. The garlic crumbs on the brined tomatoes were wonderful, the chocolate with chili is one of the best desserts I had and the bream With caper butter was just so tender and full of complex flavours but light and I just devoured it. Excepcional meal. The service and wine are also lovely.

"my friend and I went to capitulate for dinner to celebrate his birthday, as was capitula, we thought the only decent restaurant in blackheath. all the others seem to be pushing down quickly. we have been in the past often in the capitulas, and the food and services were good we had no appetizers and ordered only one main meal (black foam and black bell), because we were not huge hungry because we were eating a lot of birthday cakes earlier! we had a glass of wine and were offered a piece of bread. 35 minutes later we waited for our food. in this time no one came to ask if we were in order or offer us more drinks. I asked the manager if our food was ready. he said it would be 5 minutes without a statement of delay then disappeared 10 minutes later there was no sign of food or manager. That is why we decided to go because we lost interest in eating. we have to go and the manager came by. he told us the delay was due to a big party in the ground floor. this was not the case, there was a group of 8 people who had finished their meal for a long time. we were there earlier when it was much more business and the service was not so bad. while we waited, we saw a customer who had finished their meal, slipped £20 into the manager hand when he left. Perhaps the workers need bribe to provide good services? it is such a scandal, but another blackheath restaurant has become complicit and believes that it with the treatment of its customers without respect. I will vote for one with my feet and will not eat again in this restaurant. I will also leave everyone I don't know to go there"

"4/1/22 we three medium-age pescatarians decided on a laune for a quiet meal before place. we wanted something so decided against the excellent fera and chose a restaurant that we had eaten a Sunday midday buffet earlier (but I never looked it over when we came too late and they were dressing some years ago, my fault). when I was young, raised in the 70s, lee high road was famous as for its many Indian and bangladesch restaurants my first curry was a phal further along, thanks to my big brother who introduced me and bombay abe! we looked up their website menu and phoned at 7:30 to book for 9 o'clock and arrived on time to find a modern but completely empty restaurant (it was finally a Tuesday in covid times). the waiter saw us on our bare table with linen napkins and offered us the menu. because the place was empty (with a few food cure coming and going so that they have traded) had the waiter time to explain the menu. it was different and tempting and we chose a lot of directed who ask a few to be spicier than normal. we ordered the well-deserved beer (including a gurkha beer) as the wee were a little out of our league and I would not drink any wine with curry (we never made in indies! we chat a lot and the owner came to join us. we talked about ingredients (asafoetida etc.) and our travel in tamil nadu and chettinad cuisine. in the corner of the room was a picture of joanna lumley with the chef, who was over a sheck. they do much for the next love and serve the needy in lockdown as well as them. we did not notice paying a bit more than average for the dishes than result. we have rarely started, but they looked so tempting that we chose to share the scallops 8.50) and samosas 4.95). we have also chosen the most important courses and pages. in good time the appetizers came and they were beautifully presented with drizzled and lubricated sauces (how is the style today,) hot and tasty! the samosas were only two, but quite large, such a good introduction. the most important courses and sides came together and were also well presented and spided hot. the malabar fish 14.95) was very tasty and very well dimensioned. the thimi vegetable of my friend 10.95) he also found delicious, stuffed with fresh ingredients. the paneer lababdar 10.95 of our friend was also generous and tasty. we have tasted and agreed the dishes of others and our time to eat it, to enjoy every mouth. the accompanying mushroom rice 3.95,) tandoori roti 2.50,) dal makhani 5.50,) amilo piro brinjal 5.50) and say mushroom 5.50) were small portions but well flavored. quality not quantity! during the re-conversation with the owner I have brought to the expression that I thought that her next contest of the babur was a few miles away in honor oak, but there was a sweet one to the (more expensive but well established 30 years ago) two of us were there at his opening night baburs that none of us liked. we have preferred this restaurant in lee. Obviously more people in the house would have helped with the atmosphere and I am sure it is busy with people from blackheath. we ordered the bill and it came with an automatic 10% service fee (regardlessly) at 105. it is more than we pay in the rule, but it seems quite standard nowadays for three people. we left happy and sat at 10:35 o'clock."
