I loved everything about my experience at The Nomad. Yes it’s expensive but it was worth it to have great service (attentive but not fussy) incredible cocktails, excellent wine, and food which was beautifully presented and tasted fantastic. And the dining room - just wow. Beautiful and such a lovely ambience. I think this is my new favourite place in London.
