    We were booked in at 9 by the restaurant. But they had already ran out of quite a few things by the time we ordered. The kitchen was closing quite soon after that. Please don’t book people in if you’re going to run out of bread (??) abd at least 3 other dishes in a short menu. Our waiter had to beg the chef for another plate of chickpeas and when it arrived it was cold…Also - £32 for a small plate of monkfish is a bit ridiculous. The good itself is delicious tho so it’s a shame!
