"I've been here four or five times now and have only positive things to say. The exterior speaks to this location's history as a local boozer, but inside, you'd be forgiven for not noticing that there is a lively bar at one end of the long dining room (handily separable by a curtain if the drinkers get too boisterous. I took my parents visiting London here the night they arrived. The service is attentive and friendly. The menu is genuinely interesting but not annoyingly avant garde. The open kitchen subtly suggests their (deserved pride in the quality of the cooking. Crab and avocado starter, crab soup with rouille (so crabby! and fresh beet salad started us off with confident and delicious flavours. For mains, we had in season grouse with classical fixings and a special of Bavette, simply prepared with horseradish sauce and some cress. Portions are just right. Couldn't have been happier. I have also had brunch there a number of times I particularly recall a wonderful dish of polenta and mushrooms that was like the plate good. Bottom line, I'm not quite sure why this place is not packed every night...it's bustly, but there were a few open tables. Old Street (especially west is oddly lacking in interesting spots. Thank goodness for The Three Crowns."
