It’s been a while since I’ve been so disappointed and upset visiting a restaurant, but here we are. Before going into anything about the food, our server, Conal, was absolutely wonderful. 10/10. Super attentive and remembered the birthday flag on my reservation. Now the food… I think a bill of £162 for 2 people is crazy for what we got. The mains/larger plates were especially bad. A mushroom tart that was basically sautéed and puréed mushrooms on some layers of puff pastry. The chicken was succulent, but flavour not there again. Roasted potatoes seemed to be cooked a while ago (and we came at 6.30pm), plus weren’t seasoned properly. The starters were OK. The squash was pretty flavourless, even with the pesto & pickled onion. To be fair, shout out to the wagyu croquettes - but the only good thing. Although based on past reviews, they seem inconsistent with portion size. Plenty of better places with a similar vibe. I hope they fix up the finishes of the dishes, because the menu sounds nice.
