Overall an okay experience this time. Service was slow and sadly overcharged for a bottle wine and charged for a glass of wine that we didn't have - only realised after paying the bill. This somewhat tainted the whole experience and would cause me to think twice about booking again.

Beautiful restaurant...probably one of the most beautiful I've been to. But...the service was slow owing to an event that was underway....which meant that my meal didn't have a sense of continuity to it. Unfortunately, the staff who were lovely and v v knowledgable were thin on the ground. The food was outstanding. Standouts: Iberico Pork and the Cheesecake...which was divine...like eating a cloud.

It’s still very good but is now quite steep in price. That said, the food is very good and the service is spot on and of course the room itself and ambience are lovely. I’d rather spend a bit more and have good food and service than spent less and be disappointed

Decided to go here for my fiancé's birthday. The food we has was very nice and very high quality, however it was very expensive for the portion sizes, which were extremely stingy. The £16 chorizo and bean stew only contained 2 pieces of sausage, and the 'frisée salad' the menu claimed came with my £26 pork cheek dish was just a single tiny piece of frisée on top. On the other hand the atmosphere was great, as was the service. We sat for a while after we had finished our food and they weren't in a hurry to get rid of us. Service included automatic water refills which provides a premium feeling although personally we find this a bit stressful to be being continually monitored, so that's up to personal preference. I'm also not sure if they have any drinks other than wine or water, as we weren't offered any other drinks after declining wine. If not on a budget you'll have a good time. If you are on a budget, I'd only recommend it if you're coming more for the ambience and experience than to be filled up.
