March 20253rd visit here and the food is still incredible. The steak we had was one of the best I've ever had, the leek dish is still as it's best and dont sleep on the desserts, they are incredible as well. Few minor faults with service, but the food is still out of this world

April 2025One of my favourite restaurants in London and one with some of the best vegetarian options. I literally have to have the leeks every time I’m there and love sitting on the terrace in summer. Had a great fish dish with a lovely curry sauce last time I visited. Can’t wait to return.

April 2025The Sunday lunch was great and a weather appropriate alternative to the usual beige platter drenched in gravy. The smoked meats were the highlight but the accompaniments were also memorable. I recommend the coal roasted leeks and the Acme marmite bread with pecorino as a must!

April 2025Good food with some interesting subtle flavour combinations. For some reason I was expecting something a bit more grungy both from the food and atmosphere , it was all quite sedate. Highlight was the butter bean labneh.
