Really good south-western (?) french restaurant with a great selection of duck!Prices are fair, especially lunch seems great valueFunnily shaped place, they really make the most out of the area they have and give it great atmospheres, only one toilet too!

Meh... Good reviews but food is pretty good but not wow. Good for the price but was expecting more. Red Wines are not very good, as quite dry. Fries are average. Meats are good. Desserts are average. Better French places around but those are more expensive.

The portion is just right for ladies who don’t eat much, high quality food and great service.

We had an amazing meal, if anything we ordered bit too much meat (but managed to clean the plates of course). The pig cheek was seasoned with interesting spices. I’d like to try more seafood next time. I had the squid as starter and it was excellent.The dessert was the highlight for me. The apricot was amazing.

Well decorated, good atmosphere room with wood and planty natural furnishingsStarters tasted fantastic - chicken and piggy treats, but the chicken was served on a precariously large plate. It was a jigsaw fitting it on the table.Mains were pretty good but the potatoes with the confit duck were exceptionally, burn your tongue off garlicky and the sausage in the cassoulet was extremely dryWaitstaff were attentive and friendly. Overall a nice experience, but I expected a bit better.

Hugely disappointing to see they've changed their chips. They're now thin, machine cut burger king style frites that are overly hard and actually very unpleasant. For the love of god go back to the old method - you had the best chips in town. On the plus side it's a lovely little place with great staff.

Delicious food and good selection of wine, some of which is available to buy from the deli section. Staff are friendly and the atmosphere is upmarket relaxed. It's in an interesting and historic part of London, close to.many bars and restaurants. I have always enjoyed working and socialising in this area, and this restaurant is definitely one I will return to.

Brought very special guests to this restaurant last Wednesday for lunch. Gosh, we regretted this choice!First of all, the service was appallingly slow. We did not receive one at all, if you wish. The waitress with the heaviest accent (at tomes we did not understand what she was saying) hardly attended us, never looked at us and to get her attention every time turned into a massive challenge!The worst thing was the food! Never have I ever come out of any restaurant being hungry! I ordered a well done steak that came cold! Not just luke warm or anything but cold! Eating cold meat is like eating cold pasta – a completely unpleasant experience. I did not finish it. One of our guests also told me that his steak was cold.We also ordered bread and butter but guess what, they never arrived!Chips. Seriously? A small bowl of chips for the 4 of us? How can this be ever sufficient?I am not coming back to this place and neither I recommend anyone to do so! It was so embarrassing for us in front of our clients, I cannot express this in words. They really did let us down. Any obvious excuse such as short-staffed or whichever else cannot by any means justify the God awful food and a really poor service. They did not even apologise. Disgusting.

The food was great, as always. The foie gras starter and burger is super. I'd recommend the shank though, my friend had it and it tasted superb.
