My osso bucho was burnt at the bottom the first time but they gave me another one that was ok, not as smooth and soft as osso bucho is usually but really tasteful. The service was just okay but everyone really polite and friendly.

At the start it was quiet but as the time passed it got very loud and we could barely hear each other. Towards the end of our meal we were basically asked to leave because others had booked the table. They also forgot we ordered water and we had to wait for ages. The food was just okay, nothing to shout about. Only thing I loved was the random video of cute cats that was playing at the back.
