    We had the 6 course Mayfair experience. Sat at the chefs table which was an amazing experience to see them make the food. We had every single course explained to us so we knew what we were eating. Everything tasted good and some things like personally the lamb and the prawn very good. Overall the service was exceptional, the food high quality and tasted good. I wanted to try a Michelin star restaurant for my birthday unfortunately it didn’t live up to my expectations. I still had an amazing time. some of the stuff a la carte looked so good.
