    Che splendido Sunday Roast, posso dire con certezza il migliore di Londra! Carne morbidissima, patate croccanti come le verdure, tutto gustosissimo e delizioso. Ho apprezzato la cucina a vista che da un tocco di eccellenza al cibo.Ambiente eccezionale, dall'arredamento al personale così attento e gentili. Da frequentare tutti i giorni!

    The welcome was warm and professional. They had run out of Guinness but were very apologetic and offered alternatives. The table wasn't quite ready so we had to wait for 20 minutes which wasn't a real issue. We were introduced to our waiter who was clearly a new starter and was a little short on knowledge of the menu and its contents. Being a Sunday we opted for the lamb and a shared sirloin roast beef. Unfortunately, the beef was cold and lacked enough of a portion for 2 people which for £90 was very disappointing. Flavours were very good but the yorkshire puddings were small. Overall, for the price of this experience at £60 per head excluding drinks, I was left a little disappointed.

    Second time there. They were kind enough to find a banquette in the corner for the four of us, which was a great start. Service levels have not slipped, you feel you are in the hands of people who know what they are talking about and you can trust. The menu is innovative and interesting but not in a showy off putting way. Food is full of flavour, and beautifully presented. Wine list could do with a couple of more options under £50 a bottle but the verddichio we had was lovely and good value. You won’t find a finer dining room in North London.
