    This was probably the greatest culinary experience of my life. Managed to get a booking for the Valentine’s Day meal. Not just were the hosts incredibly hospitable but incredibly attentive. The highlights of the menu were almost the entire thing. Both desserts were sublime, the TFC, caviar gougère and roast chicken were amazing. I’ve never seen a scallop as big in my life and for the duck course the main star of that dish in my opinion was the morels. We were put on the chefs table which was like looking into a finely tuned, well oiled machine. There is an almost 100 percent chance I’ll be back in the future.

    We booked a table specially for our friend's birthday. We have been to different branches of this restaurant and the food is good and the price is reasonable. The waiters at the Muswell Hill branch were very attentive and prepared a birthday dessert especially for my friend. The waiters were very polite and provided thoughtful service. Everyone had a smile on their face and we were very happy. Thank you very much for a happy evening.

    The fougasse was way too hard. The mussels were great as well as the service. However, it was way too noisy to my liking. The table next to ours was so loud that we could barely understand each other so that spoiled the experience
