    The best meal we ever had. The service was excellent. The quality, quantity and values were exceptional. My kids said it was the best meal they have ever had and already requested to come back soon. We had few starter plates and few sticks and tried the salmon and duck buns. Not to mention the amazing s’mores dessert which was the cherry on top of the cake as my daughter described

    Our 1st visit. The 3 of us greeted warmly, made to feel very welcome. Ambience very relaxing, a light, airy interior. Service was consistently friendly and discreetly attentive. We had a mix of Mediterranean and Japanese dishes. Outstanding were the beef tataki tender, mouth-watering, escargot, balls of astonishing deliciousness, the crab bucatini, flavoursome and generous. Loved the dj playing as we rounded off our dining. We aim to test out all the menu eventually !

    Nice service times, weren't waiting long, and enjoyed the visit. A good dining destination if trying to avoid the busyness of restaurants further west of Tottenham Court Road.
