    The dining room is stylish and the food was pretty good but the service was abysmal. There were only 2 other diners in the restaurant so they were not under pressure. Three of the mains came out while we were still eating our starters. The waitress appeared confused and seemed to think we should hold on to our cutlery. One of the mains was delivered 10 minutes after three of us received our dishes and we were nearly finished. We had to seek out our waitress to request a desert menu and our water was not replenished without requests. A £25 discount was begrudgingly applied but the whole experience was quite expensive. Some staff training is urgently needed if this place is to survive. I hope it does survive as it has potential to be a nice addition to my neighbourhood.

    Not quite sure what this place is - member's club? restaurant? bar? I had to rather awkwardly an ungraciously push past the former Archbishop of Canterbury, Rowan Williams, reading carols to find my table, which was...unexpected. But all I can tell you is that the food was delicious and the service was lovely.

    Sunday lunchtime. We were the only people in the dining room. Food arrived before the pre-lunch drinks - so you know that nothing is cooked to order. A re-heated Sunday roast is not what we expected - so overall very disappointing. The staff were courteous - but they didn’t have much of a clue about what they were doing. Definitely not going back and definitely not worth the money. £180 for two for a lunch which was reheated? You decide.

    Had a wonderful time at Margo’s at The Dally! The service was exceptional, and our server (sadly, we didn’t catch his name) truly stood out. He was attentive, professional, and offered fantastic recommendations that made our dining experience even better. The food was delicious, with each dish perfectly prepared, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. It’s clear the team takes pride in providing a great experience. We’ll definitely be back and highly recommend it!

    Experience was generally good, for us, as we expected a quiet evening. Main dishes were good, not all exceptional though (fish was too crispy, but meat was outstanding, sides etc were good). The starters were also good but tried too much to be something they weren’t. Services was very attentive, but we had the whole dining room to ourselves (Monday evening). Which was a very nice thing for a change. Overal a perfect place to get a simple but good dinner in a (very) quiet surrounding. I assume that on other days/the weekends it will be busier though.

    The service was great. The food was average. There were not enough choices, and there was no offer of steaks of any kind. This is a bit risky for a restaurant on a street that has close to 100 restaurants nearby, all serving steak. Drink prices are far too high for a non-Michelin restaurant.

    Lovely bright and airy restaurant inside this relatively new members club on Upper Street. We had the burrata and asparagus with egg to start and the cauliflower and trout for mains. All delicious and with very friendly and attentive service from Eugene!
