Food: We took advantage of the OpenTable lunch special where you receive a starter/tapas, a main course and a glass of wine for 20.00 GBP. We ordered the Sardinian fregola, peppers, crayfish, baby spinach and the Bruchetta, burrata pugliese and caponata for our tapas. For our mains we ordered the pan fried pollack, grilled artichokes, fennel and lemon butter and the fresh tagliatelle, courgette, board beans, parmesan and summer truffle. All of the portions were good size and the food was delicious. The serving was so big I couldn't even finish it which made me sad because it was really tasty and fresh. Drinks: We ordered a white and a rose wine. Price: 20.00 GBP per person for the lunch special plus VAT and 12.5 service. Great deal! Ambiance: They have a few tables outside, but the main restaurant is downstairs. It's a cozy space. Service: The service was welcoming, friendly and attentive. Would I go back? Yes, I would go back again if I was in the area. The food and service was great.

While in London, I HAD to visit Bacchanalia. We stopped in for a drink after our anniversary dinner…read morewithout a reservation. We were lucky enough to snag a spot at the bar as those are also reserved so I was extremely happy. I had asked if it was possible to sit in Apollo's Muse which is their exclusive lounge but told that they had a private party going on. I was just as happy with our spot a the bar. The menu itself is a booklet with drinks that pertain to Apollo, Medusa, Caesar etc. The vibes were immaculate, drinks well thought out and the service was top notch. I plan to visit next time I'm in London.

Bacchanalia is one of London's most impressive restaurants that I visited, and it's hard to believe…read moreit has only been open for 3 years. From the moment you arrive, the experience feels special. The door greeters and hostesses are warm and welcoming, setting the tone right away. I needed to charge my phone, and they immediately offered a ticketed charging service so it wouldn't get lost ~ a thoughtful detail that shows how much they care about their guests. The atmosphere is stunning. The entire space feels like a living museum, with breathtaking art and design everywhere you look. Even the bathrooms and bar area are showpieces on their own, making the setting as memorable as the food. Service was good throughout. My server, Marcos from Italy, made sure everything was perfect and then later on Joseph took care of me. I started with the salmon tartare, which was fresh and flavorful, then had the chimichurri steak, which was cooked perfectly and packed with flavor. I ended with a cappuccino that did not disappoint. Another plus is that the 14.5% service charge is already included in the bill ~ fair, convenient, and absolutely deserved for the quality of service. I also noticed several managers in sharp suits moving around the floor, keeping the experience polished and professional. Bacchanalia is a beautiful blend of Greek and Italian inspiration, an atmosphere that makes you feel transported, and service that makes you feel taken care of. For a restaurant that's only been open a few years, it has already set a standard that feels timeless. Highly recommended to anyone who wants not just a meal, but a memorable experience in London.

With a large appetite you can enjoy many yummy dishes, and best to come with friends so that you can get lots of their 'snacks' and 'starters.' We were only three people for dinner after having a late lunch. Duck Terrine with jam was out of this world, one of the best I've ever had. Super flavorful and generously portioned. Next was a Partridge which likely was the first time I've eaten one - but won't be my last. There were many great looking dishes, including fallow deer which our friend really enjoyed. Overall fantastic - I know this review is simple and short, but just trust me and all the other reviews which happen to be 4-5 star, it is well worth your while to dine here.

You gonna end up in a stylish venue where you can talk without screaming and instead of the usual pub vinegar-like glass of wine, you'll discover very tasty, well balanced and original wines from all over the world. Try them all ! In each style, humble grape has made a good selection of quality wine across the whole price range (first wine by the glass starts at £6, cheaper than some pubs of northcote road). Staff is great and friendly, ask them if you don't know what to choose. Try the meat platter, the pâté is excellent. You can also buy a bottle in the shop upstairs to bring back home when they close.

It's located in an old wine cellar (the oldest in London) and dimly lit by candles. If you are looking for a spot that matches the dark and moody London aesthetic and offers plenty of history, this place is perfect for you. I was very surprised by the quick wait time. We travelled in August which is their busiest time of year and the most we had to wait for a table was maybe 10 minutes. This place seems to be a true hidden gem and more popular among locals than tourists. The cheese boards are delicious and just as unique as the place itself. They have plenty of flavors to choose from and have several different options depending on your budget. We went with the two cheese board and everything included paired perfectly with the wine. The staff was great at giving us recommendations and even let us sample several flavors before committing. We loved this place so much we decided to come back our last day for round two. If you are travelling to London, I highly recommend adding this wine bar to your list of places to eat or drink in the city.
