Reviews
The restaurant appreared HUGE to me, that said, the service was absolutely impeccable. Very attentive. We chose a selection of the Tapas, again, 10/10. There's some almighty talent in those kitchens! Not only beautifully presented, it was definitely a treat for the taste buds. Only downfall, for me? The music, whilst great selection, was just too loud for the dining area. Fabulous location, so lucky for a clear, mild evening for the roof garden!
Incredibly average at best.
Service was weird and disjointed from the start, lots of trying to act like a very high end place but came across rude and difficult.
Food wasn’t good at all. None of it was seasoned and foam everywhere. The dish that apparently has caviar on it has little to none. Too much trying to make things look ‘out there’ rather than producing quality food.
Atmosphere was pretty dead, it was maybe 30% full at best.
Overall, I can see why it was easy to get a seat on a very busy night everywhere else.
There’s many far better places nearby.
Me and my partner celebrated our anniversary here. Our table was initially cancelled minutes before the booking which shocked us but the staff listened to us and put back our booking after confirming it wasn't us who they just talked to about cancelling the table(?).
We were shown to our seats which I requested to be near a window and was granted so that was a plus. We were greeted by our server but the music in the restaurant was so loud almost worst than a pub that I couldn't hear him. It was very dark inside as well so we almost couldn't see the menu.
After ordering, service was fast and food was delicious. Maybe a bit too overpriced because of the serving? We ordered
1 still water : Costs £4.5!
2 Bellinis: Very good and strong alcohol
Souffle omelette: Mediocre lukewarm omelette
Croquettes: Good serving and tasty
Crab tostados: Delicious but 2 pcs of tostados for £14 seems like overkill
Beef short ribs were amazing. Definitely recommended.
Goat's milk flan with ice cream and candy floss: Was a treat to the tastebuds
We were surprised with a "felicidades" micro cake which was a plus.
In total we spent around >£100 including the 12.5% service charge.
What an amazing find, elevator to 5th floor, dark and atmospheric, lovely staff and amazing food. We asked for the pre theatre menu which is a great option and had: rustic tomato bread, Chef's omelette, croquettes (Iberiamn ham, cheese & truffle), wild mushroom guisa, slow cooked lamb, chilli & garlic prawns, pork tenderloin, and finished with seasonal fruit salad and a chocolate churros. Loved it, Little bit too dark for my old eyes 👀
Had one of the best new year experiences! Great food, good service, amazing place!
We ordered some drinks at the terrace bar, the barman charged us more than the menu price, when queried, he said he added discretionary service charge, he should have asked first before charging, plus we had a reservation so we did not want …
Lovely meal for my partner and I's anniversary. The food was delicious, would highly recommend the mushroom croquettes and the hake tempura. We had 3 tapas items to share and then a plate each. Cocktails and mocktails were great too. Service was a little slower at points but there were some larger parties in there. Would definitely recommend this restaurant and return to it again.
Elegance, lovely food, excellent service.. attention to detail. We had the special Saffron Menu and it was delightful.
