Visited for my friend's birthday. Had a bit of trouble finding the restaurant initially my phone was directing me to 330Strand which was in fact incorrect. On arrival however it was a lovely experience. The restaurant was extremely quite but our reservation was for 3pm so not surprising really. We chose the 3 course set lunch menu and we were also able to take advantage of the January sale which was excellent. My friend had calamari to start followed by bolognese and then tiramisu. I had bruschetta, and amazing chicken in cream sauce and gelato to finish. Dishes were beautifully presented and delicious. The set menu even included a complimentary drink and we chose Prosecco and an Aperol Spritz. My friend was delighted when presented with a happy birthday plate. Really lovely experience and will definitely return.
