I didn’t know that the menu had changed, as the food, portion sizes and the experience used to be good. However, the new tapas menu is disappointing — overpriced for the tiny portions. Nearly £15 for just 3 dry small prawns? That's outrageous. The jerk chicken with rice was no better, a toddler-sized portion for £11? Our group of four all left disappointed. When the people sitting next to us saw our portion size, they left too. Eating out in London has become an extreme sport. You will spend loads and still leave hungry. This used to be a favorite spot to catch up with friends, but sadly, we won’t be returning. What a shame! NB: The staff and service was good. So 5 stars to them.

Second time attending and I honestly didn’t think it could have been better than the first visit.. but it was. The attention to detail in absolutely everything is incredible. Great food, great cocktails and genuine hospitable service. Have planned my wedding anniversary here. Thank you team Laki Kane.
