                                                        Another excellent meal to celebrate wedding anniversary. Menu changes, interesting variations. Restaurant was packed, locals know where to go for good food in traditional surroundings.

                                                        If you are looking for clever juxtapositions of flavours on your plate, this is certainly where you should think of coming. We have visited Chiswick's 'Le Vacherin' restaurant on various occasions and have always been hugely impressed by the food and the service. The changing menu is broadly European with (understandably) a French influence.

                                                        Went with my Wife for a lovely lunch on Good Friday. Restaurant was fairly quiet, but still a nice cosy atmosphere . Staff were friendly and professional, giving excellent service. Food was lovely, chosen from the prix fix menu, and had a lovely bottle of wine. Overall a great experience for a very reasonable cost. Many thanks!
