We were a party of 8 women visiting London for my nieces 21st birthday and had some time spare before our bus home. Booked as a last minute thing and I’m so glad we did. I had the lamb and it was beautifully cooked and came with a huge Yorkshire pudding, crispy roast potatoes, tender-stem broccoli, honey glazed carrot, red cabbage, a parsnip puree and my own little jug of gravy. The only thing missing which we would have liked was cauliflower cheese. The mac and cheese side wasn’t saucy enough to hit the spot but still lovely. Most of our party are on weight loss medication so hardly ate much at all but I made sure to taste everything and to eat all of my lamb. The service was impeccable, the staff were extremely well mannered and professional. The restaurant itself was classy and modern and the noise level was peaceful. Highly recommend.

We would definitely go again and would Highly recommend.

I had the chicken wings and steak with roast potatoes and my partner had the 1/4 chicken and sorbet. The restaurant was relatively empty with about 10-15 other people who were there drinking so there was little to no pressure on the kitchen. The chicken wings arrived very quickly which was a nice surprise but they were steaming hot so appeared to have been microwaved and then finished in sauce. They tasted ok though. Then the mains arrived. I had requested the steak to be medium rare and what was served was well-done to slightly caught on the outside and blue to just warm on the inside. This steak had obviously just come out of the fridge and straight into a hot pan. There was no seasoning and because the steak had already been cut into slices there would have been no benefit to revoking the steps as they would come back to well done. The chicken again was below past in quality with very little flavour or seasoning again. One thing that does or was the roast potatoes served with both mains. They were tough as anything and were barely warm on the inside, so again another user of the microwave to present flavourless food. I appreciate that the menu was for the pre-theatre rush but we were almost the only people eating and there was no reason for the poor quality of food. I'd avoid the pre-theatre menu or even this place completely.
