    Enjoyed a wedding celebration here. Great service, interesting and delicious drink and food menu. We had the best time. My only criticism would be to turn the music down as it was overpowering when trying to talk.

    Always a favorite when we come to London. The duck is delectable and there are vegetarian options as well. I'm personally a huge fan of their appetizers but every course is excellent and the service is exceptional.
