I had a recent booking at Rebel Rebel, and it was a genuinely pleasant and enjoyable experience. The atmosphere was relaxed yet vibrant, perfect for a casual evening out. The staff were friendly and attentive without being overbearing, and everything felt well-paced and thoughtful. From start to finish, it was a great time

The steak, spatchcock and octopus was well cooked and beautifully flavoured and balanced with all the ingredients on the plate. To add to the delight was how well the vegetables were cooked and flavoured.
