   Exceptional in every way! We were served by Juan who is an absolute super star of the service industry. You’re treated like royalty and the staff are just as passionate about the food as you are. Styled in an Art Deco fashion, it’s incredibly comfortable, stylish and up market. The wine list is very well sourced and even better priced. The food: OMG! In a word (2 words) - perfectly balanced. We were recommended the Beef Bourguignon and I’m so glad I had it. Slow cooked for hours you don’t need a knife, the beef just pulls apart, paired with mash which is more butter than potato, I loved it and I don’t even like Mash. My wife had the ravioli which was again, perfectly balanced, full of flavour and perfectly cooked. We always pick a winner between us and this was just impossible (although I was the winner - shhh). We rarely order dessert but the options were so great we just had to try the chocolate fondant. Served with chilled clotted cream instead of boring vanilla ice cream it was sensational. Because of the insane quality, it’s hard not to draw comparison to the top fine dining restaurants of London, in which case, it would have been nice to have varietal stemware (a big ask on only a £42 bottle of wine) however that said, the manager actually offered to ready Bordeaux glasses for our next visit as they have a sister restaurant who are stocked. I mean, if that’s not top tier service I don’t know what is. This place could give the heavy hitters in London a run for their money, and at a much smaller cost it’s a no brainier. If the food was rubbish I’d still come back for the service and if the service was rubbish I’d still come back for the food - thankfully all elements are perfection so we will definitely be regulars.

   Fantastic restaurant good atmosphere, food was tasty and the staff were nice and helpful. The ONLY let down was when we had ordered a pot of peppermint tea we asked for some extra mint leaves and when the bill came we were shocked to discover they had charged us for a whole extra pot of tea although they had only added in about 4 extra leaves. I have eaten at many top places before and this is the first time we have been charged extra for this. Beware if you do want any extra as you will be charged extra.

   A great place with good quality food and ambience. Went on a Sunday and although they said they were out of their infamous truffle mac and cheese, they managed to do one for us ☺️ There were a few quips with the service and one burger came too raw, but it was well sorted and managed and truly the food is outstanding. One thing I’d recommend is to let go of the live band as it’s a relatively small space and it can get really loud so we couldn’t hear ourselves speak. A brasserie should be a place to unwind and relax, especially on a weekend so while appreciated it doesn’t require this added touch. Definitely coming back as I have yet to try their pancakes which look delicious!

   We booked an early table at short notice. The staff were very welcoming, the waiter was engaging and had good knowledge of the menu. The food was delicious. Would definitely return.

   Pancakes and pasta were great, steak tartare not so much unfortunately. Really great attentive staff and nice decor.

   Glad you enjoyed it in the main. The steak tartare is typically one of the most popular dishes, sorry to hear that it wasn't to your taste.

    It was good , food could have been a bit better , it was good but nothing was outstanding, atmosphere it’s pleasant

    Hi Matias, thanks for this feedback. The venue itself is meant to be laid back and friendly an antidote as such to the typical Mayfair dining but we certainly take this on board, thank you for letting us know.
