Six by Nico London Reviews Summary

Food Quality

Pros:

• "The quality of the food is top notch, presented beautifully."
• "We thoroughly enjoyed every course of the 6 course tasting menu."
• "The flavours in the Bird Pie went together so well, and the truffle in the Just Right Porridge really brought the dish together."
• "The wine pairings with my meal were great and really added another layer to my enjoyment of the food."
• "Each dish of the “Once Upon a Time” menu was to die for."
• "Food was great. Lots of interesting flavours and presentation styles."

Cons:

• "Unfortunately the sole, in my favourite dish in terms of flavours, was unfortunately slightly overcooked to the point it had become a bit dry and flaky."
• "Unfortunately the chicken (second dish) was quite dry."
• "The pork belly and cheek (fifth course) incredibly dry, stringy and overcooked."
• "The sourdough bread was terrible. The texture was like a supermarket loaf."

Service

Pros:

• "The staff were brilliant, despite being constantly busy."
• "We felt like they were instantly at our call and made sure we had whatever we needed."
• "The waiters were very informative and allowed us to be comfortable and have a lovely dining experience."
• "I’ve never felt so safe eating anywhere as someone with a nut allergy."

Cons:

• "Service was very friendly, but haphazard. They got our drinks orders wrong more than once."
• "I had an issue with the manager being very curt when I asked about a detail on the bill."
• "Service was generally ok though just seemed a bit chaotic."
• "The service was slightly on the faster side but they were friendly, nevertheless."

Ambiance

Pros:

• "The restaurant's atmosphere ends up being really noisy, which could detract from a more intimate dining outing."
• "The atmosphere is very welcoming right from the start. Lighting and seating suit the style of food."
• "The staff were super friendly and attentive & offered to move us when sat next to a very loud table."

Cons:

• "The restaurant's atmosphere ends up being really noisy, which could detract from a more intimate dining outing."
• "Sitting by the kitchen is quite loud, however not so loud that it interrupted our meal."
• "The restaurant was packed out, and with an open kitchen this meant it was very warm and loud."

Value for Money

Pros:

• "In my opinion Six by Nico offers incredible value for the experience."
• "The tasting menu was value at £44. Everything was executed well."
• "We had the wine pairing and the explanations for each course were interesting and explained simply so you could understand."
• "Great value for money, really appreciated the flavours, textures and ambitious dishes served."

Cons:

• "There's no beer on tap and the bottled beer is pricey (I assume this is deliberate)."
• "With the extras, the snacks, the service charge and the drinks, we spent £95/head, between 4."
• "It’s found that gap in the market for affordable tasting menus. Will definitely be keeping an eye out for the next menu - I just won’t be having the wine…"
• "The menu as part of the concept will change every 6 weeks. The food we tried was pleasant but seemed to have issues with flavours that didn’t feel balanced."
