Food and environment are great and definitely returning next time in London. The service was a bit rushed and we and the table next to us were politely reminded there was another reservation behind us. A little surprised to experience that after just over one hour in a restaurant of this level but perhaps that’s typical these days ? Rarely happens in the US so it was unexpected. Nonetheless, enjoyed our dinner and will return.

Had a really enjoyable Sunday roast today and the staff were great. We were a table of four but Unfortunately we were sat next to a table of 20 so we couldn’t hear each other speak. That’s not the fault of the restaurant but maybe they need to think about that when seating people. Overall a good experience though
