I found No. 10 restaurant to have a great inviting atmosphere. The tables were spaced out enough for private conversation. We ordered a main & a small plate and shared between the 2 of us. Which was a lovely meal. Beside our table was a cutlery tray for staff to collect new cutlery for tables. I found it was quite noisy when staff collected the cutlery to dress tables when I was eating my dinner. So, I suggest maybe find another place for the staff to collect cutlery
