Such tasty food! Prices are great for the quality of food. The roasted cauliflower, onion/artichokes, bread, and the fig salad were the standout dishes for me. Other guests liked the fish, mushroom risotto, olives, cabbage, and chickpeas. The chocolate tart was sooooooooo good. I’m not a chocolate person, but it was so luscious, smooth, and flavourful. The server Alex was friendly and very accommodating. Next time I am in the UK, I will definitely visit. I would absolutely recommend.

A beautiful and underrated restaurant in one of the busiest and ugliest roads. Very kind and attentive staff, the decoration was quite simple but modern and adequate. We had fennel and kohlrabi salad which was really good and beetroot salad with hazelnut which was utterly tasty. Their mushroom risotto was al dente which was very pleasing and it was packed with loads of mushroom taste. Their special main of the day was beef and bone marrow and potato which the meat was amazing but I think the idea of fried potato on the side of such a brilliant food was a killer and took a bit of its elegance in taste and also in its visual presentation. ( something with a bit of acidity would have been a much better choice to accompany such a great fatty food). Overall a great experience and enjoyable meal.

Just Wow! Can't recommend enough... Fresh, beautiful flavours! Chef Terry creates magic in the kitchen... The chicken liver pate profiteroles, the burratta salad and all the desserts on the menu are highly highly recommended! If the pork cheek is available on the specials definitely go for that! The service staff was amazing... Alex made the evening extra special. Thank you for the fantastic experience... You've got a fan! 💐💐💐❤️❤️❤️❤️

Came in with no booking on a busy day and the staff were super kind about seating us (and lovely throughout lunch service). Loved the food, just great place overall. Can’t wait to go back.

Absolutely fabulous restaurant in the armpit of lewisham. It's, very sadly, closing down. The food was second to none. The beef cheeks melted in your mouth. The rabbit was succulent and the cheesecake was astounding 😋😋

Happen to drive past this everyday on the way to work, looks rather unique from the outside and had come to have a try. Great service and friendly staff. Food was alright in general but the price tag was rather expensive for the portion size. The decorations and surrounding was a nice set up. If you like your unique dishes then this is the place to go 😶‍🌫️

Delicious food! Portions on the smaller size but I Loved everything on the menu. The chicken liver parfait with buttery in house made brioche was to die for. The pear and fennel salad with candied walnuts was my favourite, perhaps because I have a sweet tooth as it was almost like a dessert. The bavette with horseradish pure was gorgeous and cooked medium rare to perfection. The confit duck with figs was gorgeous. So crunchy and yummy. We also ordered a agnolotti with pea and ricotta with burnt butter and sage and it was perfection, so was the tagliatelle with squid ink and clams. Loved the lemony sauce. Servers were very friendly and attentive. What a gem! I’ll definitely be back.

Our favourite local restaurant in Lewisham, we have been here serval times and the food is always fantastic. They change their menu very often and they always have daily special dishes and cocktails. My personal favourite is their fried chicken and cod roe toast. They are tapas style so we always managed to try everything we liked on the menu. The only problem is we always end up eating too much and still got tempted by their desserts. I think they are very reasonably priced and service is always friendly.

Delicious food in a lovely setting with friendly staff. Went on a Wednesday evening with the wife looking forward to trying out a new restaurant in our local area - we were not disappointed! The waitress explained that the menu is designed to be shared and recommended 4 dishes between the 2 of us. I am vegan so asked which dishes were suitable and to my delight there were 3 on the menu with one not listed that the chef could make for me (mushroom risotto). We ordered 2 small plates (bean tempura and warm artichoke salad) and 2 large (halibut and mushroom risotto) all of which were delicious with great texture and flavour. Service was excellent too - we were even offered a free plate (chickpea butternut squash salad) as one of the plates we had ordered was going to take a bit longer to prepare - lucky us as it was equally delicious as the other plates! Will certainly be back again with friends/family.

Brilliant lunch here. Portions were big, flavours were bold and service was attentive. For £25 for 3 courses, you really can't ask for more. Will be back for more if they keep that custard tart on the menu
