i'm delighted to be giving the first review.
this used to be the fountain restaurant, full of pastel shades and busy for breakfast and lunch but never well know for dinner.
it's had a complete makeover and it's absolutely beautiful, go there quick ! the ambience is just perfect - lower ceilings, soft warm lighting, nice background music, great seating in sunburnt orange leather, with lots of booths. and a great looking bar at the far end for just drinking, gives a nice buzz to the place but not too loud.
the menu is amazing, just the right quantity of items and some unusual dishes like deer and also agoodvegetarian selection.
for starters we both had octopus with borlotti beans and chorizo, so tasty !
to follow i had steamed halibut with leeks and caviar and new potatoes; my son had partridge with polenta and artichoke, both great dishes. had a carafe of chianti - the wine list is superb.
service was very attentive, with lots of waiters. we spotted a celebrity chef and her family in there - monica galetti - which must be agoodsign.
a great experience and i'll definitely be back again soon.
