You asked, and so here it is—a scathing takedown of this overpriced, underwhelming joint that somehow manages to insult both your taste buds and your wallet. ' Price gouging at its finest • Every steak is a “minimum 200 g” of Tajima beef, salted and peppered—yet the a‑la‑carte menu makes no bones about charging you premium prices for the privilege • Expect to shell out £400–£750 per head with wine—a calculation so ludicrous it seems spun from a billionaire’s fever dream 🥩 Food quality so-so—barely justifies the hype • Tajima beef, aged up to 56 months, grilled theatrically on binchotan charcoal—is the kind of shtick you’d find in a gimmicky show, not on a Michelin plate (). • Main courses are nothing more than salted-and- –peppered slabs; where’s the finesse, the complementary sauces, the seasoning complexity? Nada. 🚶‍♂️ Service that matches the arrogance of the price • Staff treat you like you owe them gratitude for deigning to show up—expect cold detachment, rote lines, and zero curiosity about your enjoyment. • If you dare ask a question, they retort like snooty showroom sales reps, as though you just offended their ancestors. 🍽️ Ambience: fancy décor, zero soul • Sure, it’s Mayfair, sure it’s “exclusive,” but overpriced elegance means nothing without atmosphere. It’s like dining in a sterile jewelry box—flashy, but lifeless. • Hidden in the loo? Cherry-blossom wallpaper and pretentiousness go together like ketchup and caviar—pointless, wasteful, and mildly nauseating. 🏁 Final verdict Avoid this place unless you’re hunting for: 1. A dumb flex for your Insta. 2. Boredom served on a platter. 3. A dinner so expensive it hurts. This isn’t “fine dining”—it’s fine on paper. Reality? A cockroach masquerading as a gourmet experience, with a price tag that suggests if you believe the hype, they don’t care if you walk out disappointed. 🔥 TL;DR • £750/head, for… stale steak. • Waitstaff with attitude. • Décor that suffocates any sense of warmth. Take your money, and literally anywhere else—at least you’ll leave feeling full, appreciated, and not fleeced.
