    A small, quirky place, with very moderate prices and, I must say, I had one of the best meals I've ever had in London. Kid-friendliness: We saw lots on kids with families, from infants on up.

    Massive thank you to the whole team. After just getting married the day before (and still recovering from it!) we decided to have a special lunch for our close family together the day after. Andre has been great at helping us with a very smooth organisation, pre-orders and seating plan. Tiegan was taking care of our table on the day and has been wonderful, pretty useful that she spoke French to ease with with some translation bits. She's been on top of everything and accommodating for the whole time. Great timing in between courses, and always around to answer everyone's needs with a big smile. Thank you to the kitchen staff for the extra delicious food too! Only positive comments from the whole group!

    My partner and I stumbled upon this place completely by accident. We normally go by recommendations but decided to try something different and we are so glad we did! From the moment we walked to the door wondering if the had availability, to the moment we left, everything was fantastic. Michael greeted us with a warm smile and wonderful enthusiasm, seating us at the window. It was such a lovely evening, it felt as though we were on holiday watching the world go by. I had the mussels and my partner had the scallops to start. Both were fantastic. Considering both can go terribly wrong and tasted like rubber if not cooked well, we were so delighted when they were cooked to perfection. The white sauce with the mussels was the perfect balance of zest and salt. For the mains we both had the sole with a medley of vegetables and polenta fries on the side. The polenta fries were a perfect consistency of crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. I'm not sure what the sauce on the side was, but it was a perfect match and so tasty. The sole was also cooked perfectly. It was soft and delicate and the vegetables complimented it perfectly, particularly the leek confit. For dessert we both had the chocolate cake and oh how divine. I love chocolate and so I can be very fussy. But this chocolate cake was warm, soft and gooey and paired with a delicious coconut ice cream with real coconut shards which added a great texture and flavour bursting in your mouth. All in all it was a wonderful evening with a great atmosphere and fantastic food. However, the icing on the cake and what really made it special was Michael and Harry. They ran the whole restaurant without a hiccup. They were attentive without being over-bearing and they made the whole experience that much more enjoyable. They were both wonderful and added that little extra something to an already great night.
