Guests can casually walk into the first floor bar room, known as The Wallace Room, for the acclaimed Brixton Burger or find their way upstairs to The Dining Room for a more elevated experience with dishes served tableside like Dover Sole with Sauce Meuniere and Côte de Boeuf with bordelaise jus as well as signature dishes like Branzino en Papillote and Crescent Duck.
