    We have diner at many times in Dubai, and also in Paris at the Bristol Its the first time where we was disapointed The truffle pizza normally a must, was difficult to cut, and certainly not of the day , normally is a collector and very good, Yesterday it was not. The cod 2 mn too cook, and the desert not interesting and not good. The last desert of the Menu was incredible small and not good The french white wine Chardonnay very insipide and not like Chardonnay with Saveurs and dry I was an « inconditionnel » of Akira Back and not sure to come back

    Had an amazing experience last night. The food is some of the tastiest we have ever had and overall an amazing restaurant. Credit to the kitchen for turning such flavoursome food out for its customers - outstanding. Also a shout out to our server - tenkgu. I think I spelt that right but he is a credit to the restaurant and his passion for the food was obvious. Just makes the experience all the more special. Many thanks from Michael and Denise Baker.
