    Great place to have a celebratory meal with friends. Very good food, service and atmosphere. Had the moules and salmon which were both very good quality and delicious. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

    Excellent food and very lovely ambience. Spacious restaurant with very nice seating areas. I didn't get the feeling that they were trying to cram in as many customers as you seem to get in a lot of other restaurants in Central London
