There is nothing but positive things I could say about this place, and that is saying something. I have been to steakhouses all over the world and this is by far the best quality to price ratio I have ever found. The service is astounding, especially from monsieur Alessio, who makes sure you are catered to perfectly. I have been coming here for years and my girlfriend and I celebrated our 3rd and 4th anniversaries here and I'm extremely grateful to Alessio and Sole for making those both such special nights. I can try to highlight how amazing this place is but I think the pictures do it more justice! A fantastic decor in a hearty area of London, quality service and quality food, you really can't ask for much more, if I could eat here every day I would!
