Pre theatre dinner - seated in the ‘front’ room which had a lovely relaxed ambience. It’s really fun to watch all the denizens of Soho walking past! Theatre menu was ridiculously good value at £25 per person with the quality (and quantity!) of food being excellent. Slight confusion with the wine that was handled very well by the manager. Highly recommended.

This is a good restaurant, the food on the whole was enjoyable, the service and the ambience were good. There is room for improvement though. The food was more of a mixed bag than it might have been. My bouillebasse and my wife’s apple soufflé dessert were wonderful, but my starter of scallop (note the singular) was made up of a group of flavours that just didn’t meld. My dessert, “Black Forest” looked fantastic, but some components didn’t taste very much of anything. Service was very efficient (on Valentine’s night I suppose one might expect it to be), and the ambience was pleasant enough. Overall, pleasant enough, but I don’t think we will be rushing back.
