    Fantastic, went before about a year ago.. was brilliant that time. Didn't think it could be on par again. Not only was it as good, it was magnificent. From the small aperitif at the beginning and the mid sorbets, the food was michelin star if even a higher level than that! They cooked my steak to perfection. To wrap it all off I had the basque burnt cheesecake. Probably the greatest dish ever produced outside the san Sebastian region. All in all a gem of a place.

    Lovely food - classic french high dining. Quite good value compared to some Michelin starred places. Bit noisy this time around but it is the Christmas rush. Would recommend to food lovers especially those who don't complain too much. Service quite good - not quite Michelin level but not bad. This was my second time and I look forward to the next time.

    We loved the food and enjoyed our night. Our main comments it was a little dark for our table & didn't have the same atmosphere as downstairs. Think it was a little quieter which did make it more relaxed but the lighting was very poor. Our waiter was great but I think he was under pressure as downstairs was very busy. Maybe Christmas might not be the best time to go to Bresson!

    Really top drawer food that’s let down by lack of staff when it gets busy. Need to improve service to match up with the really high quality food. The chef is amazing but there are not enough people working .
