Very disappointed in the experience. Online it looks so nice, but building works and no atmosphere at all. Service was slow considering we were 1 of 2 tables in the whole place. Won’t be going back.

The service was friendly and efficient and the food was good however the restaurant was almost completely empty with only 2 other tables occupied at 8pm on a Saturday evening. Overall we had a good dinner and enjoyed our evening.

Service was below standard for a big group - menu had changed last minute. Food was served cold and just generally disappointed. However, think this is ideal for smaller groups less than 10.

This is a really classy place in a hidden part of Kingston. The staff there were so accommodating particularly Victoria who went above her call of duty to help us with a nice table and service.

Impromptu dinner for 4 of us after shopping in Kingston. Service was great and the food is excellent. I had the burger which was huge and very tasty. Pizzas are good too. We had a bottle of Rioja which was good for the price. The cocktail menu is very comprehensive. The atmosphere was relaxed, parking was very convenient with the Seven Kings car park a 3 minute walk away. A very enjoyable evening.

I had high hopes about this place but they all crushed once I was showed the “buffet”. The selection was extremely limiting , which was beef roast , chicken roast and a fish pie. Then there was veggies and pasta that were cold and tasteless. The beef was extremely tough that all 3 of us had to not eat it and the rest was similar. And they did charge £30 pp for that privilege! First time there but I won’t be going back for sure !
