The waiter sat down with us to take our order. We felt cozy and welcomed from the start. The ambiance struck the right balance between being rustic and refined. The chicory and pear salad was incredible — the crisp chicory, subtle sweetness of the thinly sliced pear, crunch and bitterness of the walnuts, and the softness and saltiness of the blue cheese, all cut by a perfect dressing. The interplay of textures and flavours was spot on. My friends had the foie gras and fish soup, and both of them were amazing as well. Duck confit was fall-off-the-bone tender, and the fat had an intense umami flavour. So yummy without being greasy or overly rich. We ended the night with some apple pie and crème brûlée, which were all perfect as well. Overall, it was an experience I will rave about for a long time. £80 per person — we had starters, mains, dessert, and two bottles of wine for five.

I love this place and though I live in Paris surrounded by French bistros all day long, this is one of my favourite places to eat in London and I always make a point of stopping by whenever I am in London. Their wine selection is really good, the service is super friendly and their homemade butter is simply delicious. Highly recommend popping in for lunch or at least a glass of wine and some cheese.
