Delicious food with delicate and amazing flavours - loved the scallops, the mussels, the courgettes and the pumpkin soup (bread was a bit disappointing as it was cold and the butter was hard to spread - excellent to dip in the sauces of the dishes though). Excellent wine list. Servers were friendly and attentive. The garden area is really beautiful on a sunny day. Will definitely be back!
Beautiful and quite elegant canteen, focusing on classic dishes. You could either sit inside or in their heated tent. Located by a lush cute garden, in a calm neighborhood. Very popular, so a reservation is recommended to dine here. Food was good, but slightly overpriced perhaps. Service was polite, but not the warmest nor happiest.
Hidden gem in London

The entrance is hard to find (hidden behind an unassuming door with an intercom) but the interior is spacious! Service is quick and the waitresses are friendly :) The menu changes every now and then but this time, friends and I had the wigeon (£32), roast pork (£28) and turbot (£32). Roast pork was the best to me! We also had the apple crumble which is made in-house, it was delish and not too heavy.
First time here, and can't wait to come back The food was just perfect, drinks were great, the staff was great and attentive everything we ate made our eyes roll back in our heads I was stuffed but I wanted more. Can't wait to go back to London next year just to eat here again. Thank you for making our experience so special!
