A cosy warm spot that serves delightful tapas and offers good drink selection. This was a place where spending money felt right. The food brings lightness and happiness. Flavours were clean and celebrates the ingredients’ integrity. Beautiful. I felt right where I needed to be. Beetroot borani, feta, walnuts: This was beautiful. Light, refreshing and crunchy. Topped with yellow beetroot that provides an extremely subtle sweetness with a good crunch. Pieces of walnut to elevate nuttiness and texture. The feta gives a gentle saltiness to contrast the sweetness of the beetroots. The beetroot borani is light and creamy. Beautiful dish to start. Sobrassada, thyme & honey tostada: This was exciting! There was spiciness, sweetness and herby tones to this piece. The tostada has a nice crunch to it. A bite brings you through a journey of melted honey with tones of spices that coats your tongue, then the flavourful spiciness from the sobrassada comes through. All that with the fragrant thyme accompanying your bite. By the end, the honey married with the oil from the sobrassada, and it is quite lovely to just clean the plate off with what’s left. What a fun dish to bring the meal together. Finished my meal with a glass of Pedro Ximenez. Let’s just say the rich sweetness of the sherry settles gradually with the after notes of the sobrassada that was left on my tongue. After note: My experience with the service was very lovely. It was both personal and warm. Much gratitude to Monica, Abel, Josh, and Hugo… Also the host, whose name I did not catch… A very cohesive, warm, and international team here. They work well and closely with one another, was enjoyable to watch. P.s. Glad this was the place I chose to have my last dinner in Oxford. The restrooms are maintained well and hygiene was in check.

We had a family meal at cook house yesterday and the service was lovely and friendly, what food we had was nice. But the price was ridiculous for the serving size. An £12 chicken salad was a plate of lettuce with about four shreds of chicken (not even half a breast) and a drizzle of dressing. The small plates are hugely overpriced for the size. £12 for a slice of focaccia and a few mushrooms, £9 for a small slice of bitter cheesecake. While staff were lovely and there’s a nice atmosphere it’s definitely more about being a bit pretentious than value for money!

We had lunch at this restaurant yesterday. The food was delicious, and the dining environment was very pleasant. However, there was a misunderstanding when we settled the bill. As customers from China, we don’t have a habit of paying tips separately (the service charge is usually included in the food prices). Therefore, when we saw a default 10% service charge on the bill, we thought it to be an unreasonable extra charge, so we requested to have this charge removed. However, we did some research and realized that this is often seen as a complaint about poor service. We understand that our actions yesterday may have hurt the server. In fact, the gentleman who served us was very professional and patient, and he kindly took back a dish we accidentally ordered due to misspeaking. I want to apologize to the staff: you provided perfect service, and this was a misunderstanding due to cultural differences. I hope it didn’t cause you any distress.❤️

Went for a meal with my son and his fiancee. The food was outstanding from the starters where we shared a Tzatziki and Beetroot dip with fresh bread. The mixed grill was excellent as were their chicken and lamb dishes. The staff were friendly and were given some baklava after the meal which were divine. We will be back and I would highly recommend.

The only good thing about the restaurant was the Ambience. Lady server was sweet and helped in selection of food. Food was alright, portions are smaller than the exorbitant price you pay for. The boy server was cocky and had an attitude. Terrible customer service. Despite pointing out the undercooked chicken, he had an attitude, zero attention by the chef to atleast come out and seek the problem. He cleared the plates without giving attention to the problem and only just highlighted its double cooked, which one can see from pictures 😞, its not. I’ cook chicken everyday and I know what cooked chicken looks like. Paid a high price for what we had and charged an unjustified service fee for a cocky attitude Never returning again. Pictures for proof for the undercooked chicken and bill! 👎❌

First time visiting Site and it won't be the last. Great atmosphere and staff. The General Manager was very welcoming and made our visit most enjoyable. Pizzas were amazing and the White Chocolate/Lemon Cheesecake and Tiramisu were very naughty, but nice ! We'll be back soon to this little hidden gem.
