"Without a doubt, one of my favourite restaurants in London. And because of this I’m willing to overlook the appalling service which came courtesy of a waiter who looked so depressed we were forced to ask him what was wrong, to which he informed us he had had a long day. Having worked my way up from dish washer to silver service waiter, so designing and reviewing restaurants, bars and hotels, I know it can be a gruelling job. However I also know that patrons don’t care if you have blisters when they’re shelling out over £150 per head. Service aside, the food was exemplary. The onion soup starter was just as I remembered it from my many trips to Paris, though it came out so hot that I was unable to eat it for at least 10 minutes as it cooled. The portions were generous, and our table in the farthest corner of the room gave us a wonderful view of the entire, historic space creating a wonderfully exuberant atmosphere that I was loathed to leave behind."

18/5 Spent Saturday evening here, had the very best service and food. We hired the blue room and it was an absolute delight. Later we found the bar and were entertained all night by the most talented, and hilarious pianist in London. Can’t recommend the team and venue highly enough. Coming back ASAP just need to find an excuse.

Escargot offers a delightful dining experience with perfectly cooked escargots in a delicate garlic butter sauce and tender, beautifully seasoned salmon. The dessert was a perfect ending to an exceptional meal. The excellent service and charming atmosphere made the evening even more enjoyable. Highly recommended for a memorable meal.

"The decor of the restaurant is really lovely. We were greeted as soon as we arrived. We placed our orders quite briskly. We received complimentary bread and olives, which was a nice touch. Our Bruchetta starter arrived a whole hour after we arrived, which was disappointing and far too long to wait for a cold and easy starter. The menu did not specify that the prawns on one of the bruschettas were raw! The waiter said service was slow because they were busy with Uber Eats and Deliveroo. Clearly not prioritising paying customers, who pay a 12.5% service charge, unlike online customers. Eventually, our main courses arrived. My pasta was only just cooked, so close to being undercooked and hard. They ran out of ricotta and replaced it with the tiniest amount of cheese so I asked for some more. Since ricotta was supposed to be the main ingredient of the dish. The tuna steak was lovely, and the veal could have done with a thinner breadcrumb batter. The sides, chips and zucchini, were £4.50 and very small portions for such a cheap side. So that was slightly disappointing. Overall, the pinot grigio white wine was very drinkable, and they brought tap water when we asked for it. And the whole staff were very polite. It was a shame the service was so slow, and the food could have been better for the price that it was. We also felt it was overpriced for the location it was, zone 2 London and not in the West End."
