I am a great fan of Neil Perry and I realised this may be the last chance to savour his excellent asian cuisine at Songbird before it closes. It was great - the food, the service, and all were outstanding. The wine suggestions by the wait staff were excellent. I hope the new venture works out well

Braza is a great restaurant. It is lively and energetic, and the food just keeps on coming. It is not a cheap meal but nor do you expect it to be. It caters for vegetarians as well which is great. Large groups are tricky as the table settings are all rectangular so my recommendation is for a group 8 or less. Food, service, drinks offerings are terrific, and eating here is always an experience.
