READ THIS BEFORE YOU GO HERE!!! A BEWARE A LOT OF THE REVIEWERS IN UK GIVE UNRELIABLE REVIEWS.
Firstly, i found this restaurant because its around my area and it received the michelin plate award. I was like wow not bad maybe i should try it since michelin gave this as a recommendation. Overall, the dinner experience was just okay in my opinion. The appetizer costed around £11 each; the main dish costed around £22 each; the dessert costed £8 each. Nevertheless, for it to be worth, i got the set menu,which consists of the appetizer, the main dish and the dessert, with the price of £39, and you can opt out the dessert to deduct the price to £34. By looking from the outside and judging the $$ sign from google, i did not expect the food to be this expensive. So let's dive into it.
Appetizer:
The appetizer consists of different small appetizer middle eastern food that allows you to try different range of the middle eastern food. Some of the appetizer are quite good and some are not. Trust me i have tried a lot of middle eastern food to know which one is good.
Main:
The main was just below okay in my opinion. This is when i know the chefs are really trying so hard to make the dish beautiful and to be creative. I got the lamb and the aubergine. I am so sorry chef but you are really trying too hard please do not try to hard because you are actually ruining the dish that was perfectly better. Adding pomegranate does not make the dish more beautiful and perfectly ruin the food chef. You are ruining the taste. Pomegranate does not fit with lamb and aubergine.
Dessert:
This is what made me turn around from getting two stars to three stars. I got the cheesecake. In my opinion, the feta cheesecake was super amazing. It is not easy to make me like dessert, and it was not easy to make feta cheesecake since i have tried a lot of scaled up restaurants who have ruined this. Nonetheless, if the chef was not trying to be over creative, i would easily give this a four stars since the cheesecake was super good. Using marjarom gives the cheesecake a bitter taste, and using blueberry gives the cheesecake a sour taste. Do not be over creative trying to mix all flavours for dessert please. A dessert is called to clean your mouth for a reason. I'd recommend changing your blueberry to the sweet blueberry and the marjarom with mint leaves so that they would blend more perfectly. I hope you hear this advice if you want to be better, but if you think you are the best well good for you.
Summary:
Overall, the overall experience was just okay. My waiter, Guilherme, has been very helpful though props to him for the lovely service. Nevertheless, the experience was too overpriced and not worth it. Furthermore, if you want to keep your status as a good restaurant, please reply to all your reviewers. You will thank me later. Nonetheless, I would only recommend people to come here for the cheesecake and nothing else, and if they hear me out fixing the cheesecake, maybe i will go back in the future. Cheers! I hope you guys listen, and i hope this review help. read more
