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 food was unbelievable as always. If there was another bartender on, I think we would’ve got our drinks as quickly as I like. A nice touch that the owner came around and asked all of the diners if they were having a good experience. I would eat here every night if the bone marrow was put back on the menu
