Loved the food, the service and the beautiful decor! We could tell that they only use top ingredients and that the chef is a very talented cook. Very cozy, pleasant and brand new restaurant. Hard to find as it’s inside the yard. Our only complain is the size of the portions! So small for a very big price! We came back home hungry.

It was my first visit and my friend and I were very impressed indeed. It was particular quiet, but I gather that it is pleasant even when full as they have installed sound-proofing. The food was delicious and the attention to detail was first rate and it was so nice to see familiar faces from Medlar. I very much look forward to going again

Food was very salty with lots of repetitions in the ingredients and sauces between courses - I had the 6 course tasting menu. The excess salt resulted in the lack of freshness in the taste. It didn’t feel like I had a tasting menu but a reduction of techniques and ingredients I suspected this when looking at the menu but chose to stay as I was looking forward to this lunch Service and ambience were great, but I come to a restaurant to eat:)
