May 2024Saturday jazz brunch. Apart from the amazing view, we were accompanied by a jazz saxophonist who wandered among the tables. The set menu is good value and we couldn't fault the food. For me, the service is a cut above other restaurants of a similar price bracket, and one of the reasons I will continue to visit.

April 2024Superb food, great value set menu £30 including glass of wine, and with views of the river. Generous portions. Passion fruit posset was stunning! Or cocktail or tea at the bar. Stylish central London venue. Great multinational staff. Really impressed

May 2024Went here as part of the 2024 BAFTA Awards before and after the ceremony. We had a warm welcome, lots of vantage points, seating, drinks stations and wonderful canapes. We had veggie mains after the ceremony and were offered alcohol free beer as well. The staff were all hard working and incredible. We could not stay for desserts. Will return soon.
