DEXTER is a no rules approach to American BBQ brought to you by Adam Goldblatt, Sam and Tom Peasnell. Our meatery features the best Australian produce which is treated the right way. Chefs Tom (Pitt Cue Co, London) and Adam (Homeslice, London) pay homage to the low and slow traditions of American BBQ utilising smoking, chargrill techniques and pair this with flavours from Mexico, China, France and alike. The philosophy is a meat first approach, where a dish is formulated from the unique characteristics of the meat (or vegetable) for a truly unique meat experience.

We chose Bang to celebrate a birthday milestone. Having great food and ambience was a must. They also were very careful with my son’s nut allergy - having Thai fusion was delicious but usually comes with nuts. Highly recommend this little gem. The food was a delight. We will be back for that and the cool vibes / service.

A group of four, two couples who have known each other for years. We covered the menu well from fish to burgers from pate to prawns with sweet chill sauce. Our friend is a wine guru and connected with the sommelier and made some great choices. An intimate space and one we look forward to visiting again.
