    We just had a quick dinner - a main course each and it was as good as ever. The Tuesday Steak Frites at £19.50 is very good value and the mushroom risotto was lovely.

    A delicious meal with the normal excellent French cuisine- and wine! - and very swift service. It makes an ideal venue for a pre-theatre meal.

    Can get busy and then service suffers but after an initial hiccup they recovered and we had a pleasant meal on a fun environment.

    Just the right look for a French brasserie. All the classics and, while not cheap, very good value for central London. Attentive and efficient staff. A really good option.
