   The place itself was good - ambiance, decoration the vibe was great! The food & service was disappointing. It was the server’s first day so we can’t really fault her for that but it took her forever to bring some things we asked for I,e water, food, bill. She forgot about our steak knife too and only remembered when the food was mostly eaten already. The food was the most disappointing part. The starter was too grilled, it was so charred, you could only taste the burnt bits. The focaccia was stodgy and lacked salt. For mains we ordered, honey chicken, steak, chips, Caesar salad and fish and chips. I asked medium rare for the steak but it was cooked to medium, meat was tough. The honey chicken were lukewarm and stodgy like the focaccia - not crispy at all! And the fries were served lukewarm and not crispy as well. We wouldn’t go back there again for food but perhaps for drinks instead as like I mentioned above the place looked cool just the food and service wasn’t great.

   Amazing and friendly atmosphere, the staff is very professional and well trained, very hospitable and attentive. I been there for a work meeting and we had lunch to, everything was spot on, we where in the secret garden for a bit more privacy; was nice and quiet. I will for sure go back soon. Thank you Mattia.

   Overall a good experience but not amazing. The humous starter was small (only 4 small pieces of bread) but the flavours were good. I had the Indian spiced roast squash for mains which was a very small portion for the price, but again the flavours were good and it was presented nicely. I was warned by our waitress this dish was spicy which it was not at all. The cookie dough was delicious. Our service was very slow considering the restaurant wasn’t that busy but it had a nice vibe.

   The bottomless brunch food options are very limiting (three options). Eventually they agreed to let us pay the difference of picking a main outside of the "Classics". The venue was very strict on the 90 minutes of drinks (it starts from your reservation not when everyone arrives). The saving grace for the venue was that the burger and truffle fries were yummy and they had a great variety of drinks available for bottomless brunch.

   This was our third visit, and once again, it was an outstanding experience! The food was exceptional, as always, and the service was top-notch. We consistently enjoy the high-quality meals and attentive service. Looking forward to our next visit!

   Great place, very quirky and cosy. We had lunch Caesar salad’s for lunch, the chicken was a bit dry and there wasn’t a great amount of sauce so had to ask for more, the staff were very attentive. Highly recommend the truffle chips. I’ll definitely be going back as really like the venue and it’s local.
