£12.50 for a sparse kabab and chips, it tastes like haggis which is unappealing. I asked for it with cheese which I didn’t get, and it is cheaper elsewhere. Immediately on the counter so I couldn’t not pay for my price enquiry
£23 for sweet & sour chicken Hong Kong style, fried rice & spring rolls felt a very steep price for the quality of the food. Especially since it was only available for takeaway when I ordered. It was okay, the meal filled me and certainly wasn’t the worst however the chicken felt a bit chewy to me. Perhaps it’s the more authentic way of doing things? The food came quickly and staff were nice. The toilets didn’t smell great. That being said I’d probably go again and try something else next time.
£26.50 plus service charge for a Coq au Vin that was tiny... I left quite hungry. Odd menu too. Staff were excellent.

Great food
0 Please avoid this place we had a voucher to use and the girl could not find voucher reference. She left my sister waiting for ages until we had to phone my nephew who had gifted us for Xmas treat. We were made feel as if we had free meal and people were looking at us. Humiliating . Terrible service and meal mediocre not worth the money . Prices expensive for what you get please don’t go here . It will only waste your day !
£26 for a bowl of pasta is a disgrace. Venue is lovely but food is average. 3 bowls of pasta, 1 side and soft drinks for 2 adults and 1 child approx £90! Can’t help but feel ripped off and so disappointed as a local resident.
10/10 experience. Service was amazing, DT brilliant server. Will definitely be back here for another great family meal!
10/10! Amazing, fresh and delicious food! Friendly staff, intimate seating. I haven’t had burrata since being plant based over 10 years ago. This was beyond delicious!

I am very disappointed by the experience we had at your restaurant. We had booked a table for 8 people for Tuesday evening and were really looking forward to it and it was my boyfriend’s birthday, and we wanted to celebrate with Georgian food for the first time. One hour before our reservation, we texted the owner to let him know we would be arriving 10–15 minutes late. He replied that it was fine. However, when we arrived after taking a taxi from the other side of the city, the restaurant was completely closed with no explanation or notice. Not only did we waste money on the taxi and lose an evening we had been anticipating, but we were also deeply disappointed. What made the situation even more frustrating is that after we went to a nearby pizza place, we noticed the restaurant appeared to have opened again when we walked past it shortly afterwards. We didn’t go back in to ask for an explanation, as the whole experience already felt like a joke. Seeing other reviews mentioning that customers are being rushed to finish their meals only adds to the impression that the restaurant is not being managed seriously or professionally.

We had a great service from Mr somnath... A big shout out for his service and the way he explained us the menu felt like India , far away from home 🏠
Review rating: 5.0
Great venue but food was nothing to write home about and very overpriced for what it was. Simple bowl of not that special gnocchi for £24! Two slices of tomato with radicchio for £7. Very unimaginative vegetarian selection. But we were most disappointed by the unsmiling serving and the long wait after the mains. We felt ignored. We waited so long, in fact, we decided to go elsewhere for desert. We won’t be returning.
