Food

Pros:

• "Food is exquisite, service is top notch, and the atmosphere is both glamorous, calm and just amazing."

• "The pancake was such a different concept. It was crispy on the outside and light and creamy on the inside."

• "Their signature cheesecake was excellent. The salty cheese mixing with the sweet cover were the perfect match."
• "The golden flan egg and crispy air pancake were delicious and very well executed."
• "The food and wine were fantastic."

Cons:

• "The food was overrated, not worth it at all…"
• "The obviously signature rose dish was obviously designed mainly for instagram rather than the palette."
• "I didn't enjoy the ice cream sandwich or the cheesecake."
• "The egg custard desert was ok but not worth ordering again."
• "Savoury food was average and very overpriced - the bill was uncomfortably large for what it is."
• "For a place that I have dreamed at eating at from a millions years the food was totally over hyped."
• "The menu selection was pedestrian and very hazelnut heavy, the plating/presentation of the cheesecake was non-existent."

Ambience

Pros:

• "The cozy ambiance makes it a perfect spot to unwind."
• "The atmosphere is very nice especially with Christmas decorations."

Cons:

• "Interiors are utterly boring, no cocktails on the menu."
• "Personally I found the environment at the corner of one of the busiest street in London not very relaxing."
• "Ambience is pretty much non existent as well."
• "The interior was surprisingly quite old school, bland and had signs of wear which I was not expecting."
• "Unfortunately, the interior is very cheap with fake marble tables and decorations with half-ripped bar code tags still on them."
• "Without sounding too zany it just has a really unpleasant vibe."
• "I thought the cakes were really well presented, but at about £250 for 2 ppl (including 2 glasses of bubbles) i had not expected to be seated right next to a busy road."

Value

Pros:

• "They are expensive yet they are superb in the same time."

• "It's not too pricey for the quality of service and meals you get."
• "The desserts are on the pricier side but worth it for the experience."
• "It is quite pricey, but knowing this when you go in, it's so worth it for the service, the atmosphere and creative, intricate food."
• "The prices are a bit steep, but I think it’s justified for the quality of the food."
• "Will try the afternoon tea option next time as it is great value for money."

Cons:

• "The bill was uncomfortably large for what it is."
• "Very disappointing and expensive."
• "Super pricey with no feeling of luxury like you would at top hotel tea rooms."
• "Seriously doesn't worth for £50 😑"
• "I paid £9 for one egg flan, we felt scammed."
• "We spent 55 euros we’ll never get back. Don’t come here."
• "Sorbet was magnificent but sorry to say, served on the table with a paper cup (although with rose petals in a white plate) is disappointing."

Staff Attitude
