Taisteal

I booked a 7-course tasting menu for me and my friend. I mentioned on the booking that it's my pre-birthday celebration dinner and, oh boy, didn’t disappoint. One of the best meals I’ve ever had! The food was scrumptious and service was great. Not to mention, the vibe was warm and cozy. They’re very attentive too— received a little surprise candle for my birthday! Thank you so much and I will definitely come back here.

For a £100 meal with 10% service charge you would expect them to at least refill your water, yet not only did we have to ASK for it, we needed to ask TWICE after waiting for 20 min and having no one even looked at our table. Same goes for when we asked for the bill, we had to ask TWICE for it to finally come after long waiting. They weren’t even busy. Over the course of the meal, we felt completely ignored and overlooked. Absolutely no service was received besides putting meal on the table and indifferently introducing what it is. We also waited half an hour between the starters and the main. They explained one of us had the tasting course, and they would like us to digest well after the three starters (which were only a few bites, what is there to digest for?). Food was mediocre and small portions in course meal standards. The 5-course tasting menu was a fish soup, hoisin duck roll, bite of salmon and cucumber, venison main and mint chocolate dessert. Overpriced and service was miserable. They are not even trying to up their game to how much they charge. I would not come again.

Went to celebrate my birthday and had a wonderful night. Originally booked a 5-course meal but wanted to try a 7-course one after looking at the reviews for the scallops. The staff was very accommodating and asked chefs about the availability for the 7-course meal. Glad that we changed to have the 7-course meal. The dishes had some Asian-touch and they worked great with European ingredients and dishes.
