La degustación de whisky Macallan dio una conclusión muy satisfactoria a la semana. Las tapas que acompañaban eran excepcionales y, en mi experiencia, de la más alta calidad. En general, fue una excelente oferta.
I wrote this back in February 2020 when this place was in the o2 centre:
I was haplessly wandering towards Wagamama when I was intercepted by one of the waiters working at this adjacent establishment. ‘Good evening sir, the restaurant you’re about to enter is an insipid and hackneyed chain’, he proclaimed, ‘and we have a chef preparing fresh food on site, we offer fusion cuisine and an unrivalled view of the YO! Sushi conveyor belt and what’s more we’ve climbed to the lofty heights of number 38 on the TripAdvisor rankings’. Coincidentally I had recently made a resolution to only consume fusion cuisine, so needless to say I was convinced. Upon entering the already excellent lighting was adjusted to my taste...
I’ve lost the second page of my review, but from here on in the experience just got better and better. I look forward to tracking this place down again in Dalston.

Defo a hidden gem in Shoreditch area. As a specialty coffee lover I am glad that I have tried their batch brew today which full of cocoa, dates with medium to low acidity ( normally I preferred high acidity one). Most of the batch brew will let you feel the over extract but even though I just had that today around 4 pm and no such flavour in the coffee. If you looking for a great and nice coffee when you passed by nearby area, don’t miss it! FYI : the bean today I have is roasted by Plot roastery which is also a great Roastery in Woolwich.
I really enjoyed all the food here but particularly liked the chicken 65 starter and the tarka dahl side.
My main course was an amazing lamb jalfrezi with plain boiled rice.
All washed down with a fresh pineapple juice.
Absolutely spot on :)
The service was great and friendly, thanks guys :)

Our air bnb was right across the street from this restaurant but didn’t get a chance to go until the night before we left. Had a Sunday roast with assorted meats and was outstanding. Capped off a great trip
The most disgusting Turkish breakfast I have ever tasted and very rude customer service. We stopped by on Tuesday as a family (couple and baby). The food was atrocious and so expensive! £15 a plate for the nastiest food I have ever tasted. The sucuk was burnt, the bread was stale, the olives were the cheap vinegary ones, the eggs were cheap caged ones, and the halloumi was rock hard and pure salt! In all my years eating breakfast, I have never ever tasted one this bad and for such a rip off price. Also the waitress was nonchalant and rude. We asked for a high chair and she did not bring one. No smile, no politeness. We went and got the highchair ourselves, but it had no buckle! This is a safety issue. It ruined our afternoon and I was so disappointed. Will never set foot in there again. Do yourselves a favour and avoid.
Es solo un espacio pequeño pero se ve increíble por dentro y por fuera. La zona de estar principal es íntima y acogedora. Tuvimos una habitación privada que permitió una buena charla y socializar. Más vino del que necesitarías pero el equipo estaba bien informado y sirvió lo que habíamos pedido. Caro pero con valor.
Maddie era increíble! La comida era excepcional! Tenía vieiras como aperitivo y... Tomé sopa de cebolla francesa. Ella tenía una excelente caña de cordero y yo tenía burguesía de carne. Ambos fueron geniales. El desierto fue excelente. Nuestra siguiente parada es Dublín, y Maddie nos dio algunas paradas geniales para investigar. Gran experiencia!
As a Sicilian, I was hoping for a good experience. The staff were very pleasant, the food not so much.
Poorly made and tasted awful. Over cooked gnocchi that was clearly reheated and tough.
Drinks not as described.
Bread stale and tasteless.
The complimentary olives you receive as soon as you arrive, pretty grim.
Avoid.
This place is a must visit. We had the three course meal paired with wine. The service was outstanding and the food was equally matched. Great dishes and wine. If you want a special meal for a special occasion definitely try here.
