Caractere restaurant reviews




Average rating: 4.7
We ate at this restaurant a few years ago before they got their Michelin star and were keen to return. They offer a Christmas lunch so we booked as a treat. The food was outstanding, beautifully presented and very tasty. There’s an extensive wine list with a large selection of French and Italian wines. The service was excellent and it was great to have the opportunity to chat with Emily. Highly recommended, we look forward to returning!
