From the wonderfully winter-lit frontage, to the beautifully curated interior, in its very tastefully varied forms, you ask, can the food and service possibly hope to match this? Well, it most certainly does. Please don’t make the rash mistake I did, and worry the menu isn’t extensive enough. Also do not leave without at least looking at the huge bowl of chocolate mouse, and try to resist it when you do. Oh, and the duck and the onion soup, are off the clock. As are the dauphinois (starter AND side).

Everything is about this place is good. We love the ambience and the staff are outstanding - friendly, attentive, perfect! A lovely place to meet up with friends. The food was good (3 of us had the flat-iron steak and chips - both delicious) and there was a set vegetarian menu. It is nice and quiet so good for chatting. I would strongly recommend.

Gasmin our server was great. We ordered the prix fixe which was good. I loved the salad and the desert but the main ( essentially fried haddock) was good but not great. Next time I’ll order off the main menu The place has a beautiful art nouveau decor and is in a great neighborhood I’d recommend it and as I said our server was great

Had an excellent family meal for 10 of us with great ambiance and service. We were placed in a quieter part of the restaurant which is what we asked for and everyone really enjoyed their food. Thank you
