    Such a fantastic experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcome. The dishes are bold, beautifully presented, and full of depth. The lamb was a highlight — fall-off-the-bone tender. A must-visit if you're in Covent Garden.

    Visited Paro before a show at the theatre. Pre-theatre menu was quick, generous, and full of flavour. The staff handled the busy crowd with ease and genuine warmth. We felt well looked after.
