I took my elderly parents to Vela for a family celebration on a Monday night. Staff were friendly and welcoming, and the restaurant was clean and beautifully fitted out. We ordered several dishes to share and were very pleased with all of them. Our waiter was helpful, answering our questions and repeating our order back to us to make sure it was correct.

Bit of a blind booking, didn't know what to expect. A hidden gem. Wait staff excellent, food very good. Great wine selection. We booked for a pre show dinner and it really started the evening off well, Bill Bailey had a lot to live up to and he didn't disappoint either.

I love Bar Francine so was excited to see a new restaurant by the same team, though this quite different so don’t come expecting a similar menu or vibe! Really loved the food and the venue is stunning. Thoroughly enjoyed the trout and the dessert of caramelised brioche. We had a great date night here!

The staff were incredibly attentive and accommodating, going above and beyond by providing extra chairs for unexpected guests at our table. The food and drinks were both delicious. The recent renovations have certainly enhanced the space, making it even more stunning. However, it seems that acoustics weren't a major consideration, as the room was very loud.
