Comments
It has to be said that this restaurant is very overpriced. We made use of the TopTable half price discount and still the bill came to £40 per head. Without the discount the bill would have been £57 per head.
If the meal had been anything special then that might have been acceptable, but it was not. We felt cramped in the space we were in and the 'restricted' menu imposed on us was extremely limited.
The choice for the main course was pork, prawns, or veggie; fine for me, but not so good for the Jewish bloke. I apologise for being thick, but a posy restaurant in the heart of cosmopolitan London should know better than to put forward a menu that some might see as offensive (anti-semitic, even).
