    A great night had by all. The highlights were the burger and the kebab. It was Friday night, it was busy and service inevitably was a little slow but they did their best to accommodate us. The staff are all well trained and on the ball. We have never had a bad dish at Oxtwo

    What a great venue. Atmospheric, friendly staff and some of the best food I have tasted in Oxford for quite some time. Small tasting plates formats work well (the croquettes, Korean chicken and tartare particular favourites) followed by larger mains (the duck for Sunda lunch was exceptional). Fantastic wine list and they allow dogs too! Many thanks We'll definitelty be back
