Cole Kennedy

This is the sort of spot that makes you wish you lived around the corner. I loved the lamb ragù pappardelle , and simply trust whatever the staff suggests for wine .

Emily Hymes

Staff is knowledgeable on wine . The food is amazing. Can get a bunch of dishes and share. I had the pork tagliatelle and mike had the pigeon for our mains.

María

Second time here. I take back my previous tip - this time the service was excellent and the turbot was light and delightful.

Alex

This was one of the best dining experiences I've had in London over 20 years living here. The restaurant is cosy, food is superb and the staff are super friendly and helpful. I'll definitely be back!

Alexandros Plexidas

What should pointed out mostly is the cozy and laid back ambiance of this place and the good service . Great list of wines . The fish and pasta we tried were all delicious and fresh.

Aja Brandman

Great ambiance and food - the sardines (save some bread for this) and pumpkin were great starter dishes, the duck main and potato ravioli main were also v good. Large wine list as well

Emilie W

One of my favourite London restaurants , we recently went for a girls dinner , food was 10/10, staff are 10/10. Try the tiramisu for desert - I'm not even a desert person... it's the bomb.

Angela Liu

Cosy neighbourhood restaurant serving a daily changing menu . We had the ragu pappardelle and pigeon and both were amazing

N B

Excellent wine list that focuses mainly on natural wines . The terrines and pates are the standout food dishes. Very good overall.

Nova Dando

I LOVE THIS RESTAURANT - great food, great staff with fantastic knowledge of wine of their extensive wine list . Call and book ahead as this place is popular

Ended at this lovely place one day, although I don't eat pork haha Very reassuring that the menu had other delicious stuff. Order different dishes and wine to share w/your company xo @ambarsurastri

Perfect little date night restaurant on Columbia Rd. Order 4-5 dishes for two and you're all set ❤️

Bivitri

Tiramisu (pictured) was very good. Food & panacota were just ok. They made us wait for 20min for our table even though we had a reservation . Very nice waiter , though

Tobias Otte

Love this place. Start with cheese and wine and continue with anything on the menu. Ask for recommendations, the service is excellent.

BarChick

The staff in here are great and they know their terrines from their patés – which, with a menu like this, is definitely needed. It's primarily a wine bar , so lose yourself in the massive wine list . Read more

My go to spot when showing visitors how amazing London food is. Never disappoints.

Bivitri

The quail (pictured) was ok. The appetizer w/ eel was very good. Service was excellent but this place is a long drive from downtown & it didn't live up to the expectations

Daren Williams

Nice neighborhood restaurant with a high quality menu that changes regularly to keep it interesting.

Conrad Barrett

Organic wines , wonderful dishes to share and great people working - it’s alway a great time.

Anna Szypkowska

Everything was amazing! The quality of food and combination of flavours was truly outstanding!

Earnest in the East End: Brawn has a fast-changing menu and is relaxed and cool, but it is not worth travelling the length of the city for. We gave it 3/5 stars. Read more

Frank Banisi

Incredible food, wine , service, desert (etc. etc. etc). Everything was fantastic.

Brad Gerick

Great place for a date. Every plate was delicious. Relaxed but classy atmosphere .

Richard Gregory

Recommended: Check out the slow cooked column of the menu - venison ragu ̀ w/ pappardelle , wild rabbit w/ chard & pearl barley broth, and tête de veau, all of which are available for under twelve quid Read more

Adrienne S

Great French British food, the cauliflower gratin was amazing. Pâté and gesier salad also standouts. Worth the trek! (3 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more

Carrie

The turbot and eel (especially the sauce) were very tasty.

Prins Polo

Great food + orange wines

sebastien cros

Amazing wine selection.. Please do ask advice from the sommelier !!!

I thought the food was solid & if you take your time, you can find a good wine for value. The service isn't that great unfortunately.

Alex Lop

Excellent food, knowledgeable wait staff , delightful wine list . The burrata was exquisite.

The foie gras is amazing, however I am a bit disappointed overall: the cod was really bland and it took ages to get the food.
