Always fantastic. The server obviously had experience and training - available, but not intrusive. All food was delicious (squid noodles, lamb belly, poussin, sea bream).

Had lunch to celebrate my mother’s 81st birthday . Wonderful service, food and ambience. Makes it feel very special and she loved it as much as she did when we celebrated here last year for her 80th!

Fantastic! Great meal , service and place. Couldn’t claw it. Was brilliant all round. Duck tartlets and leeks were to die for. Mousse at the end was the cherry on top. Shout out to Frederico for the impeccable service.

Lovely food, although cold dishes came out last and would have been more appropriate earlier. Understand they come out when ready but a bit more staging of types of meals would have made it a 5 star experience rather than 4…
