Nice place but tricky to find - actually part of a hotel. Nice food - we had the lunch combo. Delicious French onion soup and avocado toast with a poached egg and a Virgin Mary. Very quiet which was fine.

Unbelievable service from Bianca who was the most incredible host! This restaurant went above and beyond for my partners birthday with a personalised card, dessert with a candle and a free birthday shot. The food was absolutely delicious. I could not recommend this restaurant enough! I will be returning very soon.

Loved the first experience at Blacklock :) The bone marrow was lovely, a great ambience in the restaurant. Quite lively. The Blacklock fillet was perfectly cooked, despite being a little too salty which we thought was unusual, but we had a lovely meal nonetheless... Great cocktails too!!! We will definitely return to try other cuts of the steak :)

Food was great - inventive and well presented. The atmosphere is very cold though, with harsh lighting - comes so close to being a fun inviting place but just misses the mark in the evening in terms of decor and ambience - but do go for the food - it’s knockout!
