Food Quality and Presentation

Pros:

  • "The food tasted as amazing as they looked and each one presented to us amazingly."
  • "The food is out of this world and the flavours were sensational and presented to perfection."
  • "Their current menu Street Food is one of the best I've tried - the best thing on it being the steamed bun, sweet, spicy and amazingly complemented by the bed of meat and broth."
  • "Every single dish was amazing. We took the wine pairing option, which was ok but not mind blowing and ended up not being able to drink all the wines."
  • "If you’re into Japanese and looking for authenticity, this isn’t for you, but if you want tasty, fun little dishes it is good."
  • "The food was divine but and my gluten free food was so delicious."
  • "Absolutely wonderful experience. I can't recommend this chef's tasting enough. It was playful, talented and beyond tasty."
  • "I love this place and this location didn’t disappoint. Has dinner here Friday night and it was simply magnificent."

Cons:

  • "The only disappointment was the dessert - the ice cream was icy and the flavours felt mismatched, chocolate then suddenly toffee but then suddenly lime, and I didn’t get any coffee despite it being called ‘Coffee’."
  • "First things first, alright dishes but nothing special and not all the components on dishes made sense. Chicken was a bit dry as well."
  • "I enjoyed eating here however I don't think it's great value for money. The vegetarian option was fish replaced with a carrot and I felt I had more sauce than food."
  • "I had the Hanoi menu. There were some Asian ingredients in them but not necessarily an accurate interpretation of Vietnamese flavours."
  • "Food is really outstanding, we had the chippy menu which was such a delight. However, the service was poor."
  • "The food is very good. The idea behind is just brilliant. The service are not in line of the food experience."
  • "The food was ok but as someone who cooks Vietnamese food at home i dont believe this to be a true reflection of the cuisine."
  • "Food was tasty and innovative. Staff were over attentive leaving me feeling a little stressed rather than relaxed and looking forward to the experience."

Service Quality

Pros:

  • "I cannot praise enough how friendly the staff were, particular the pleasant Happy Birthday message with my dessert!"
  • "The staff explained every course with so much knowledge."
  • "The drinks, service and especially the food was incredible. The whole experience was amazing and the staff really added to that."
  • "The staff are so friendly and knowledgeable and to see the chefs in action is a welcome addition (as well as the ability to thank them personally too!)"
  • "The service is very good and friendly. The style and taste is absolutely great."
  • "The staff was really friendly and the atmosphere was amazing."
  • "The staff were incredibly informative and engaged in explaining the food and wine pairs and were kind enough to give us some bubbly to celebrate."
  • "The staff knew the menu through and through and explained all the meals including the wine pairing perfectly well."

Cons:

  • "However, the service didn't live up to the quality of the dishes. Cutlery wasn't changed even if you try to make it obvious by placing them on your plates with your napkin."
  • "The meal was a bit let down by the services, too. I was frequently asked about how I liked the food."
  • "Unfortunately, our main waitress seemed to be having a bad day and her interactions felt quite awkward but the other waiting staff who also served us were both warm and engaging."
  • "However, the toilets were not accessible to a wheelchair user: no safety rails, the cubicle was supposed to be bigger than an ordinary cubicle but wasn't."
  • "Service was top notch. Restaurant was packed. That would benot a problem except the fact that tables are very very close to each other."
  • "Staff were great but food was nothing special and repeatedly came to the table luke warm. The way the pairings and menu was constructed was also in an odd order."
  • "We felt rushed, despite having to wait outside in the cold for 15 minutes after our reservation. Then, although minor, in addition to the included gratuity (l have no problem with that), they add in a 2 pound 'service charge' which they sneak in as something else."
  • "Service was quite mechanical and lacked any sort of enthusiasm. We felt rushed, our wines came quite a few minutes before the food so by the time the food arrived so we had forgotten what we were meant to taste from the wine with the food."
