    I took my family to The Parakeet for Sunday lunch, the service, vibe and food were all 10/10. Old (well kept) pub decor and the noise just brought back old memories. Absolutely fantastic, I look forward to going back again, I could not fault it.

    My experience with Decimo was excellent! Me and my girlfriend had a date for Valentine’s day and we loved it. The food was so tasty, the service was amazing and the ambience was lovely 🥰. I would recommend anyone looking for a special night out and good food.

    Had a lovely valentines meal at Bocconcino Soho. Great service from a slightly older waiter from Brazil with glasses, there was a band roaming around the restaurant playing requests and they were fantastic, made it a very special evening. I thought the tuna and beetroot starters could have done with a little sweetness for balance and some sides with the steak at the price would have been good but overall a great night…thank you.
