The location is nice and cosy. Service was great, very friendly and attentive. Food was really good, not pub food but proper restaurant food. I loved the mussles. Good wine list.

Great to see a fabulous new restaurant in this stretch of Dorset street. Very interesting menu. We shared all dishes amongst the 4 of us. Taramasolate, scotch eggs, taleggio, and the chicken and venison main dishes, all were divine.

Loved the goregeous food and the ambience at Hera. We got a late table (9.30) at short notice; most local places don't serve past 9, so this was really welcome. We'll be back for sure.
