Plenty of reservations for a dinner with friends / a big group on a Friday night near all the action of Covent Garden. Was lovely weather out - so they had all the windows/walls open to the street, which definitely elevated the experience. Broad food and drink menu - fair prices for portions. Entree portions were huge!

The food is fresh, tasty, and delicious. The pre theatre menu is very nice. Shrimp dish is too small for the price. On cold days, it is chilly inside the restaurant as the windows are left open. Cocktail speciality menu is limited but the ones they offer are very good. We would definitely return.

Had a great night, very happy that as a party of 2 we were sat on a table for 4.. Food was amazing, brought to the table very quickly from ordering.. Only slight negative was the waiters were standing around chatting and we just happened to be seated by the till, so was slightly annoying.. But overall very happy
