I hear this was good once. Our experience last night was entirely underwhelming and we will not go back and certainly not recommend to anyone. The menu looks interesting and, unlike others, it was explained to us a couple of times. We chose 3 small plates and 1 large plate. The small plates, pasta was good, burrata not so good and lamb just a bit odd. We wondered whether there was a large donor kebab in the kitchen which they were serving fatty thin pieces of lamb from. The large chicken plate was ok but nothing to get excited about. The thing that really annoyed both of us was that the quite expensive bottle of wine that we had been recommended, and had ordered, tasted disgusting. It smelled bad and had a long vinegary aftertaste. After the bottle was open for about half an hour we mentioned it to one of the waiters. He got a glass, did a lot of sniffing, swirling and slurping and then told us that was what organic wine tasted like. We drink a lot of organic and biodynamic wine and were struck dumb by his response. Would we like it decanted? Ok - let's give that a go, although it should have been breathing in the glass. The waiter then proved how much he knew about organic wines by sticking the neck of the bottle into the neck of the decanter, putting the decanter on the table and upending the bottle to empty it asap. It remained disgusting. The waiter did not come near us again to ask whether the wine had improved. We paid and left as soon as we could. Left feeling completely mugged.

I’d like to preface this by saying I have never felt inclined to write a restaurant review before. However, my recent disappointment at Duck Soup compelled me to try something new… silver linings. Last night I booked Duck Soup for dinner as a treat for my best friend’s birthday. I chose the restaurant as I’d been before years ago and found the food and wine delicious and loved the downtown NY vibe of the place. However, whereas in NY you would expect impeccable service with a server who is knowledgeable and attentive, Duck Soup on Friday was more akin to the British NHS with zero consistency of care. It felt like we kept getting passed around from person to person - no one explained the menu, they failed to bring us wine (which by the glass is served in the tiniest of portions and costs a fortune). I’d requested a table, but they gave us a seat at the bar even though a table sat empty behind us for the duration of our meal. As for the food, let’s call it decent. There was one salad of celeriac and pomegranate that we moorishly devoured, but the majority of our bland small plates sat unfinished and unmemorable. These included a KFC-esque fried chicken dish accompanied by an inexplicably and grotesquely supersized dollop of flavorless yogurt and a shockingly unseasoned and dull combination of chewy mozzarella decorated with a measly fig and anchovy or two. To call the experience underwhelming would be an understatement. In short I shall not be returning to DUCK SOUP, and I suggest you don’t either unless you are craving terrible service, tasteless food and a whopping huge bill at the end of it.

Fond memories of this place from 2013/14. Such massive fans that we even bought the book. Excited to go back yesterday but sadly left disappointed. Dishes samey, unseasoned and undercooked. Not a patch on the restaurant that we knew and loved.

I understand that restaurants need to turn tables in order to make a profit, but at no time were we told our booking was for only 1 hour 45 minutes, until we were brusquely informed that our slot had ended two minutes prior and so we had to move. No time to finish up our wine, that was it, we had to go. It spoiled what had been up till then a really lovely evening and the situation could have been handled so much better. Absolutely appalling. We won’t be returning.

Service was quite bad. I normally don't write reviews but this really annoyed me esepcially as I were with my American family who are over polite and ALWAYS tip regardless of service experience. I asked if I could get a drink as was almost told off by the waiter. Wehn the wine came it was slammed down on the table - thought it was only me but my family pointed it out to me. We hurriedly left after starters to find a better place. Not for me, my family or my work colleagues

Food was ok but quite average and bland, the service was pretty terrible. Waiting a while for drinks, had to chase up what we had ordered. Can tell the food is just bulk made as it all came out very quickly and wasn’t that hot, some of the food we ordered never came at all! No one checked on us. Felt very cramped and almost like an inconvenience to the staff. Paper (cafe style) napkin dispensers made it feel a bit cheap. Considering service charge was added on the service should be much better! The food was ok but expensive for what it was, I don’t expect to have cold food which is meant to be hot. The service really let it down. I wouldn’t rush back.

I had a new experience at this venue. I’d not really heard about skin contact wine previously so was interested to sample it with lunch. I had a very delicious belly pork dish with potatoes and aioli. The wine had a unique flavour, I’m glad I tried it. Nice to discover new things. I left when the place started filling up. I really enjoyed the music and ambience. I don’t think I’ve been to a restaurant with a turntable and vinyl ready to play before. Other diners I noticed were having a terrific time.

I have been previously but extremely let down by my experience. Food was extremely mediocre given the prices. Execution of the dishes was poor, sometimes undercooked. Booked early, but was placed downstairs, I believe on a hot day they were placing walk in's upstairs. Not a great smell and impossible to hear any kind of conversations. Very overpriced. Staff didn't look like they wanted to be there. Awful experience, which was really a shame as this was not the case on my previous experience,.

The restaurant is a non fancy, wooden table affair which is absolutely fine. We had a very cosy table at the back of the restaurant. Wonderful. The staff were very friendly and the service was excellent. So why only 3 stars? We were shown a board displaying all of the wines and a very knowledgable member of staff asked what we might like and explained very expertly what options might suit, guiding us to his first suggestion at a cost of £90...yes £90!!!!. Bearing in mind this is not a fine dining restaurant I was astounded. But dont worry, the cheapest bottle of red was a mere £45. Again , what the hell is going on here?? Coupled with this, my husband had a large bottle of beer (shared) at a snip at £36. WHAT? A glass of dessert wine a mere £16!! I appreciate costs have risen dramatically lately but this was beyond belief . The food was small and large plates such as braised beetroot or mozzerella with lentils around £14. Large plates eg Red wine risotto £20 or chicken with mushrooms £27. All the dishes were nice and not too expensive in comparison with other restaurants. So yes, for me the absolutely extortionate alcohol pricing means I would definitely not return. Such a shame. If you dont drink alcohol I would say give it a go.

Lovely unique spot in soho for food and wine. Really chilled atmosphere, friendly staff and good quality food. Menu changes frequently and every dish we had was great- we shared 5 small dishes between 2 and was perfect amount. Wine list is extensive!

I went with my sister today and we loved it. Friendly small restaurant with lovely staff on Dean St. We had the small plates all excellent especially the leek and mussel fritters and the wine was delicious. We also squeezed in a dessert between us - a choux bun with chocolate and orange marmalade which was like a decadent Jaffa cake! It’s not cheap but we thought fair considering the quality and service.

With four waiting staff and a bar tender we were served quickly and efficiently as a walk in couple. Granted the prices are at the higher end... but if you want something not run of the Mill and with a good vibe... well you have to pay for it in Soho.

My friend ordered the poussin which arrived undercook, Chef claimed it was just blood vessels but the meat was clearly raw and bleeding.

Very uncomfortable - effectively sitting back to back with another person behind me. I requested to sit somewhere else and they said it was the best sitting area in the restaurant but actually by the front door which was opening and closing regularly for the duration we were sat there. The drinks were overpriced even for London central. Overall the food was delicious and the menu was different and original but the dining experience was a real let down. They’re cramming too many people into a small space to maximise revenue but at the expense of the dining experience for the customer.

Very uncomfortable dining experience at the bar. No leg room, hard bar stools. Wine by the glass v expensive (£12.80) for only 125ml. Peasant food v nice, but £22.50 for a main course.

Visited during what can only be described as a rain storm simply added to the romantic quality this jewel of a restaurant holds. It’s small but perfectly formulated. Wine lists are carefully curated, small dishes of food fuse unlikely flavours into unexpected joy, and the service is friendly is the most familiar sense possible. Vinyl records provide the gentle, warm tones to make the occasion even more endearing and valuable. We loved it.

The waiters were very nice and accommodating although it was a busy Friday night. We got so much food and it was all good value. Th eplates are made for sharing and we didn't have to stick to the set menu. The waitress recommended we get 2 large plates 4 small plates between the three of us. It was plenty of food. The green beans were especially nice. The food was good value but I found their wine selection over priced and the fact they only had cocktails or wine. They didn't stock tonic when my friend asked for a gin a tonic...

Our daughter booked this intimate quirky restaurant and checked out their menu as 2 of our daughters are vegan. All their food is locally produced and changes every week. Our waitress Bertie was so friendly and accommodating. They were able to adjust most of the dishes to suit our requirements. There is a great choice of dishes. My favourite was Pappardelle Trombetta Courgette, although it was difficult to choose as all their dishes are delicious. Highly recommend eating there.

We had read reviews which said the portions were small and the food was overpriced and were a bit apprehensive - but we actually found it to be exactly the opposite. If anything some of the portions were too large as we were absolutely stuffed by the end of the meal (having ordered one small and one large plate each between 2 of us). The fritters were absolutely delicious as was the gnudi. Some of the food was a bit too oily for our liking (which is saying something as we like rich food) or just altogether not that yummy (the pork and the Bavette) and the service was a bit patchy but it seemed like we were just there on a night where the restaurant was understaffed. The waiters were still very friendly and helpful but just seemed rushed off their feet.

When I called to ask about any kind of refund I was rudely told there was no chance as they hadn’t been able to fill our table..on a Friday night in soho... on Valentine’s Day. I appreciate I made a mistake but I was disappointed by the rude and unemphathetic response. Lesson is always read the T&Cs!

My friends and I were looking for something different for a lunchtime get together when Duck Soup came up. The menu looked enticing. Sadly it didn't live up to the promise. You are told these are sharing plates but how can that be when there is very little food on the plate - only a couple of anorexic fashion models would consider this adequate. As for the flavours, the food is under seasoned, beige and bland. Definitely NOT worth the price. Don't get me started on the wine list.

He estado en Duck Soup varias veces y siempre estoy realmente impresionado con la creatividad y la frescura de sus platos. Cambian constantemente el menú para sentarse con lo que está disponible e inspira a los chefs ese día / semana. El menú está configurado para ser compartido u ordenar varios platos para ti, llamaría su enfoque moderno europeo omnívoro amigable, ya que hacen maravillosos platos de carne y pescado, pero sus verduras realmente parecen ocupar un lugar central. Lo primero que tuve aquí fue coliflor a la brasa (hace años, antes de que todo el mundo hiciera esto) con ajo asado lentamente, alcaparras, sultanas, almendras en rodajas y queso de oveja. ¡Sí, era tan bueno que todavía puedo recordar todos los ingredientes! Impresionante, delicioso, obviamente memorable. Su selección de vinos también es increíble, cuidadosamente curada pero no cargada, no puedo recomendar este lugar lo suficiente. ¡Asegúrate de hacer una reserva ya que es un espacio pequeño y muy popular!

The food had some pleasant surprises ... the celeriac fritters and gnudi were delicious. We weren't given a wine list, you had to order from a blackboard. We ordered one of the least expensive options at £38. My friend tried it and approved, but unfortunately on tasting it I found it completely undrinkable. Having persevered with a few sips and still finding it disgusting we asked if we could change the wine. There must have been less than 100ml drunk from the bottle which they also served by the glass. To their credit and after an exclamation from the waitress "now you don't like the wine" (from which you'd have expected we'd have drunk more than a few token sips) they agreed to exchange for something else. Besides the dishes mentioned above the rest was mediocre at extortionate prices ... We could have put it down to a restaurant that just wasn't to our taste and forgotten all about it but the final straw that led me to write this review was the appalling service. Two of our dishes were forgotten by the kitchen and we had to ask twice for the bill after desperately trying to get someone's attention. The waitress seemed incapable of smiling and when the card machine didn't work downstairs we were simply told "you're going to need to come upstairs with me" despite still finishing off our drinks... no "I'm sorry, would you mind ..." at which point we just left. It's a pity as I'd heard good things but I certainly won't be recommending or coming back.

Mixed experience. it was a Friday lunchtime. It’s v small and has a good relaxed vibe with friendly staff. Basically a bar + 5 tables. Drank by the glass. Not a huge selection but the orange emilia romagna wine was very interesting (£11.80 per 125ml glass) though my friend did not like it. Expensive Italian sauv (over £13 from memory) prob not worth it (and I/he drink lots of Italian). Cab franc mix nice. Food: labneh and dukka ok. Pickles nice but only one sort, for some reason i expected more. Stars were mains: Gurnard and leeks great. Gnudi (like gnocchi) v good and sauce excellent. Hazelnut galette and pears sounded lovely but was heavy and no taste of nuts at all. Choc cheesecake just a bit odd. Historically puds not worth it, looks like no change there. No coffee apart filter. Odd, this is Soho. Lots of teas, kombucha etc. £120 for two including 3 glasses wine. So not cheap. Nice vibe would bring me back one more time to see.... but won’t bother with puds.

My girlfriend and I first visited the place a couple of years ago when the cookbook also came out. Bought the book which intuitively matched our own principles of cooking; consequently, we spent the last few seasons trying out many a recipe (or rather reading it page-by-page as one would peruse through a photobook and then cooking along the same lines), exploring the thrilling world of natural wines and – without really being aware of it – honing our home collection of cutlery, glasses and interior design with rather ducksoupish elements.

This has the capacity to be a rustic gem in the heart of bustling soho but it just didn’t hit the mark for me. The service wasn’t amazing or particularly welcoming and the wine selection is great but very expensive. You’re looking at £11.50 for a glass of wine if you’re not going for the house. The food was really tasty but considering it’s ‘sharing’ food it’s not very shareable. Food is also expensive, it’s not somewhere I would say to avoid but I feel like they haven’t quite worked out their niche and how to do what they’re doing well. It’s a bit hap hazard in my opinion.

Went here on a recommendation. Service was fine but nothing fantastic (do note, they add a 12.5% service charge to the bill). It’s a small space, with small tables. Feels more like a little cafe/ wine bar you might find in Paris than in London, which I didn’t mind. The haddock and chickpea fritters were very good, but the fettuccine was underwhelming. Can’t say I had an exceptional experience here, but wasn’t bad either. So, for me, just an average spot that I may or may not return to.

The food is is very fresh and tasty. Staff are very attentive. Atmosphere is somewhat organic. My only complaint is the 12.5% “optional” charge they added to the bill. A practice in London I’ve come to frown on. Most places now only add with a party of six or more. Adds another cost to an already expensive experience. You can request to have it removed. I chose not to this time.

Posiblemente una de las peores experiencias gastronómicas que he tenido en Londres. Tan incómodo. Agobiante pero nada acogedor. Mesas pequeñas, platos pequeños, porciones pequeñas y una presentación / calidad horrible. Me sentí como una comida rápida tratando de actuar y fallando miserablemente. Como alguien más ha dicho, las cosas nadan en líquidos acuosos y se sirven al azar sin ningún sentido de combinaciones. Nuestros guarniciones llegaron después de que habíamos terminado todo lo demás. Si la comida hubiera sido increíble, uno podría aceptar algunas limitaciones, pero no lo fue. Si te atreves a hacer una pregunta, espera una respuesta brusca. Y, finalmente, la factura - una estafa.

The food was ok. Interesting even. Nothing special though, small plates were something swimming in juice. Difficult to serve to a number of eaters. While the menu had descriptions and prices, no wine list. They would suggest something suitable for your food selection. My mistake. When the bill arrived I found a 500 ml carafe of Chenin blanc 33 quid, equivalent to 50 quid a bottle. When you order by the carafe that is not what you expect. I got the waitress to check, but it was not a mistake, although that was her first reaction. So 127 quid for three people for some average food and wine. No thank you.

Medio tropecé, me recomendaron este lugar hace aproximadamente un año. Quiero decir, caminando por delante de él el nombre era tan familiar. Me di cuenta de que tenía un grupo de amigos que continuamente me decían que este era el lugar para ir cuando estoy en Londres. Lo había archivado y finalmente hice clic una vez me encontré en la calle Dean.

Ambiente encantador y acogedor, ideal para reunirse con amigos o una cita. Necesito otra visita para comentar sobre la comida: el pato que pedí no comí (el sabor era malo y sorprendentemente, el personal, aunque no me vio comer, no propuso cambiarlo). Me gustó el hecho de que el menú estaba escrito a mano.

I booked ducksoup for dinner on the recommendation of a colleague, and I’m very glad I did. The menu is not huge, but everything on it was delicious. As there were four of us, we had four small plates and two large which was plenty. Each plate was delicious, the aubergine amazing, the taramasalata excellent and the pork and lamb mains tender and plentiful.

På anbefaling fra en ven besøgte vi Ducksoup og endte med at komme igen 2 dage efter da maden, vinen og atmosfæren var skøn:-) Der er mange gode bud på spisesteder i Soho og vi har spist på mange af dem, men det her må blive en favorit.

Me pasó por aquí para algo como el menú parecía muy interesante, vale la pena al menos una prueba. Me senté en un banco viejo fuera, y pedimos una copa de vino, que he olvidado ya, pero era un rojo de Italia. Su lista es genial, aunque un poco convencional. Para comer; el cerdo confitado con alcaparras - un método clásico de cerdo salado grasos tierna y afilados; capers sencilla y sabrosa, aunque un poco pequeña. Y corazones de pato en una salsa rica (rábanos creo). Estos estaban bien ricos y bien sazonada, aunque un poco demasiado suavemente en la cocina (no puedo quejar ya que son un fastidio para llegar Justo - que van desde el crudo a bang en duras en un instante). El servicio era agradable y bien establecido, pero un poco de falta de conocimiento. El vino de postre pedí era fenomenal, aunque, por desgracia, también el nombre se ha perdido. Lo más destacado fue un desierto de pannacotta con pistachos y fresa - era mejor ejecutado que casi ninguno de los que he comido en el último año y hace que valga la pena volver algún día.

Este es nuestro lugar de visita obligada cada vez que estemos en la ciudad! Sencillamente magnífico. Intentamos conseguir la noche antes, pero estaba tan ocupado que falló! Era un martes por la noche, pero coincidió con la Feria de Vino de Londres en la ciudad así que cada Wino deben tener la misma idea. Lo hizo la noche siguiente y trabajó por los vinos por copa. Como siempre un montón de opciones, incluyendo un excelente vino peculiar de Granada y naranja Alsacia Sylvaner. La comida era excelente como siempre: chick pea azucarados con ajo silvestre, cordero y patata aoli buñuelos y salami. Pete y su equipo eran una delicia y nos recibieron como si fuéramos viejos amigos, aunque había sido 8 meses desde nuestra última visita. ! Trataremos de no dejar tanto tiempo la próxima vez. . . .

Sopa de pato es un íntimo bar de vinos, restaurante/diminuta en el corazón del Soho. Ofrece una gran selección de vinos tintos, junto con un delicioso menú de platos pequeños. Este lugar es muy "Londres" y es agobiante, la comida es para compartir, mantiene con los precios del centro de Londres y ordenar lleva tiempo. Es soho, así que lo que se puede esperar. El servicio es fantástico, amable y conocedor de vinos y platos. El menú cambia a menudo y siempre he encontrado interesante y variada. Anoche tuvimos un plato de espárragos, orzo collar de cerdo, garbanzos y jamón crujiente. El menú está construido para agradar a los seguidores de una gran variedad de dietas y siempre consta de múltiples vegetariano, varios peces y 3 platos de carne 5 basado. La mejor parte de la sopa de pato es si consigue una mesa para tomar el fuera en una noche de primavera. Hace que para gente fantástica de ballenas. Yo siempre regresaré aquí, ideal para un fin de semana "capricho" o para un viernes sesh, me encanta!

La mejor parte de este restaurante es el ambiente - es un enano, luz tenue, un bar de vinos viby. La comida es buena, aunque nada realmente destacó como excelente. De la nota, si no te gusta el vino tinto o vinagre platos basados (que a mi novio no, este no es el lugar para ti. Hay también un montón de cordero en el menú, que no es mi favorito. No tienen un bar completo y sus cócteles especiales son inventivo, pero no muy bien. Si os gusta el vino tinto, vale la pena echarle un vistazo a:).

A small and atmospheric wine bar and restaurant in Soho, serving creative dishes alongside a decent selection of wine. Small and cosy, with small tables and music from a collection of vinyl records. Can get cramped but otherwise nice atmosphere. May not be to everyone's taste and it's definitely not a place for any business related meal. A tad pricy given the décor and style.

No estoy seguro de por qué se llama Ducksoup. No soy consciente de que sirve comida china caldos o es propiedad de los Hermanos Marx. Es un pequeño bar con taburetes de bar como muchos asientos de mesa algunas de las últimas casi escondido en una alcoba. Los vinos son entintadas a un rectángulo grande de azulejos; la única cerveza de barril, posiblemente el único período de cerveza belga Vedett vendidos por la pinta media o con zumo de melocotón o granadina. No hay máquina de café espresso café es necesariamente sirve así filtrada. Me miraba en un enorme tarta de chocolate y nuez, uno de los únicos tres postres, siendo los otros sillones natillas con fresas y helados. Para mí la comida en el menú compacto era la cosa. Piezas de cerdo sobre una cama de aceite resultó ser un aperitivo sabroso, pero lo que me fascinó fue el plato del día, piezas de merluza en círculos minúsculos de fregola (pasta) con tomates bajo algunos aioli. Una delicia sensorial en términos de su explosión de colores y texturas satisfactorio no me decepcionó. El único vagabundo atención impactó fue cuando, habiendo terminado un chocolate y torta de nuez, mi espacio estaba un poco invadida por una mujer el vagabundo que, habiendo sido ofrecieron un vaso de agua, procedió a beber algo de la mía antes de ser pedido a.

Pasado este lugar primera vez, gracias a su vez anónimo de escaparate. Dentro, la habitación de la planta baja (estoy suponiendo que hay un bien arriba, una, porque de lo contrario no tiene idea donde todas aquellas personas iban) es pequeña, un bar, una única fila de pequeñas mesas con espacio suficiente para pasar entre. Sin embargo, en la parte de atrás de la habitación es un poco receso con una mesa que es prácticamente una experiencia de comedor privado. Tuvimos la suerte de que les presten como cuatro amigos después de tres años, así que era el lugar perfecto para los chismes y recogida en unos platos de compartir. Platos de risotto de ajo silvestre impresionante, Tienen unos tomates verdes fritos. Magnífica y dukka sourdough. labneh y mercado en escabeche, además de unos cuantos otros. Todas absolutamente delicioso. El personal era encantador y el servicio aunque desacelerado durante un rato cuando recuperó bien. ocupado La lista de vinos es inusual y también bastante caro. Un montón de botellas y algunas biodynamics tres figuras. Parecía una cosa rara para un lugar que es tan informal. Nos lo pasamos de maravilla, pero era más caro de lo que podría haber esperado. Ese es el problema con platos para compartir, que pila! Aunque muy original restaurante Sin duda volveremos. Reserva esencial.

Joya de un restaurante, relajado y bastante. Con tantas opciones en y alrededor de Soho es fácil elegir el lugar equivocado, demasiado turística, también en autobús, demasiada prisa donde el amor de la comida ha sido obviados en nombre de comercio.

Food was much better than expected. Ate at the bar which turned out to be a lot of fun as we ended up meeting and drinking with our next door neighbours (So to speak)... If I need finding a but, I can only say it was a little difficult to choose among one of the biological wines, as the waiter seemed a bit lost (more than we were), but when it arrived it was really nice. The two Spanish waitresses were excellent at recommending fantastic dishes.. The final bill was a little higher than anticipated but not too bad considering it is central Soho...+It is always easy to spend when having fun! Would definitely be back!

First of all, the food here is vey good and creative without being cooked just for the chefs ego, we had two really outstanding dishes on our visit, the grilled ox heart and Lamb & cockels, on the down side a very ignoring and close to rude waitress, the rest of the staff were very accommodating but she kind of managed to spoil the good feeling for us.

Si estás buscando un lugar estupendo para una fecha o pequeños grupos de amigos, no busques más! Ducksoup es, sin duda, un lugar donde sé que volveré. El restaurante ofrece un ambiente intimiste para disfrutar de algunos platos muy sabrosos. Toda la noche fue como una sorpresa interminable. Que se miraban por el descubrimiento de este pequeño restaurante, que el interior es bastante acogedor y le invita a relajarse y disfrutar el momento presente. Los platos eran exquisitos (el cordero era un sueño). Todos los camareros tenían una sonrisa sincera y personalidad. El "viaje" fue estupenda, el vino era de inundaciones, y los platos eran probado una después de la otra. Espléndido. Nos lo pasamos genial, se lo recomiendo a cualquiera que venga y pruebe!

Fuimos en una recomendación. El personal era excelente y amable, pero la comida y también estoy ushy ricos en general. La queja principal es el vino - todo muy caro y el más barato cuesta 20 libras por una jarra de 500 ml, un truco barato para conseguir personas efectivamente a pagar 40 libras por vino suficiente para una comida decente. Un cóctel y un plato habría sido mucho mejor. No volvería otra vez, y no suelo escribir comentarios. . . . .

A small and narrow, but cosy restaurant, with a great atmosphere. For your wine, a lovely young sommelière will sidle between customers, to recommend you the best wine to go with your food (or simply for your evening). Unusual and healthy food, you will love the dishes without even realising 3/4 of them are vegetarian!

I had dinner here last week on a spontaneous night in Soho. Very cozy with lots of warm lighting and candles, a record player and lovely atmosphere. The staff were very friendly and attentive. The food was brilliant. We had about 5-6 small plates enjoyed with a bottle of red, yet regret not ordering a main as the pasta and the rabbit looked incredible. The fried pork belly with shaved fennel and the mussels starter were great.

Aunque me mudé fuera de la ciudad hace un par de años soy gob.golpear que nunca he encontrado Ducksoup antes (ha sido abierto desde 2011 creo). Reconozco que es un espacio bastante pequeña, pero la calidad de la comida definitivamente debería ponerlo en el mapa (quizás ha y yo estoy demasiado viejo y provincial estos días para oír el zumbido). Deliciosos platos pequeños que estaban llenos de profundidad y sabor. Hizo comer emocionante - comparando notas y placas - cómo te espero se comidas.

Tonight I had the best risotto I have ever eaten. Better than any I've had in Italy, better than I've ever made at home. It was creamy and cheesy and soft and topped with perfectly roasted veg and toasted nuts. duscksoup is small and crowded, but sitting in the back alcove with his risotto made for a meal I'll not forget. Not sure I'll go back here, but I certainly will not forge that risotto.

We were attracted to this restaurant by the curtained entrance and absence of signage. It looks like a bar but it is in fact a tapas restaurant with a twist. Portion sizes are small for the price but they contain quality ingredients and interesting flavours. Service was friendly although they practically kicked us out despite earlier refusing to tell what time they would close. I was inclined to give it 3 stars but as I intend to return to try the main dishes I had to give it 4 stars.

Esto no fue tan bueno como debería haber sido. El personal era lento, todo era un poco estrecho, se sentaba demasiado cerca de otras mesas, así que en general se siente demasiado caro para la experiencia que se obtiene. Dicho esto, no está mal, así que vale la pena una visita si puedes conseguir una mesa con espacio.

Sadly, a bit ordinary. One of us had snails, which whilst they were ok, did not come in shells, which you'd normally expect to be filled with garlic butter for putting in the oven. Secondly I had the cassoulet. Perfectly tasty, but whilst the sausage was fine, the duck, which I'd normally expect to have a leg of, came shredded, and certainly not the full meat of a duck leg. My partner was happy with her tartiflette, but the portion of pate was small.

We lunched with friends and had very good food and service. All at a very reasonable cost for the centre of London. I got an email after booking to say we could be restricted in time at the table. As we were meeting friends from overseas, I queried this possibility and was assured we could take our time. Pleased I did this as we nearly went elsewhere...!
