8/10Lovely lunch this afternoon. The ceviche to start was terrific, desserts were very good, so good that I ordered two. Thanks to the efficient and friendly front of house.

8.5/10The staff were appropriately attentive throughout the evening and were both knowledgeable and interactive about the food and wine pairing. Food was theatrical but tasty. Sadly for us we were seated next to a very noisy individual who loved the sound of his own voice. Overall a lovely evening.

9/10Lovely restaurant in beautiful London location. We had the set lunch menu. Food was tasty and well executed. Main portion size was too small though. Service was friendly and good overall. Sommelier was excellent and helpful.

6.5/10We were very disappointed for a Michelin star restaurant which of course was priced accordingly. The food was good, not great. The service was a bit all over the place with several mistakes made, including incorrect items being brought to the table. Not recommended.

9/10Nice restaurant with attentive, informed staff. Good food as it should be for the price tag. It is at the higher end of the scale but the presentation and food quality is about right.

10/10Definitely will come again and recommend to my friends. The food is fresh and yummy. Service is good and wine is good too. Although we ordered 3 courses but the portion is big and very full.

9/10This was the first time we ever tasted the chef’s tasting menu dinner. What a fabulous night we spent here. The service is good and the food was stunning. A little advice for you is the dessert can be improved, i.e. the taste of clementines is weak with just sour taste and the butter can be barely tasted for the pie. But the overall is great.

10/10For me this was a really outstanding experience in every way. Surrounded by beautiful modern art in a calming and relaxed but professional atmosphere we were served a mixture of food and wine that was amongst the best we have ever had worldwide. The chef is a true artist and we genuinely appreciated his sense of the earthly and the heavenly. The wine pairings (apart from the last sparkling one) were completely outstanding. The lamb with the Californian red, incredible, the Virtuoso pairing of Japanese white wine with the astonishing celeriac course. Too many beauties to mention but all was impeccable, and served with class and humour. The desert, a peach tart literally touched by god, must be hard to pair with, and this failed for us, but the same with cold, the crunch with less crunch with soft, the earthy peach… there really aren’t the words for me to describe. Suffice to say, we liked it.
