Generous servings, great value and most importantly the lamb and pork loin (these were the entree sizes) were perfectly cooked. The service was good and the nice thing is they don't just shove service charge on their bill.
We had the decadent dark chocolate fondant for dessert. I'll be back to try the mains!

Excellent service and excellent food. If the lamb rump & chicken schnitzel are on the menu, you should give them a go! The chicken was juicy with lightest crumb crust. The lamb was cooked and seasoned perfectly and extremely tender. While there wasn’t another patron in the space, it didn’t stop us—don’t let it stop you!

Epic schnitzel and pork belly, excellent cocktails and laid back vibes. Portugese tunes blasting were a welcome addition. A hidden gem!

Is this weirdly Hoxton street's best kept secret?? The food is SOOOOO delicious. Proper satisfying to eat. Amazing huge tasty sandwiches for lunch menu, and every dish we had on the evening tapas menu was full character of flavour. Great portion sizes too.

Delicious food with generous portions and reasonable price. Very cosy and warm environment and service. The aperitifs and house red wine were lovely as well.

Honestly.... this place.

I found it a few months back and it has set a high benchmark for eating out. I've been to other places, often far more expensive than here and they fall far short in terms of quality and service.

The menu is small but I think it's a plus; all the dishes are so tasty and the portion sizes are so generous given the prices. In particular, the pork belly and steak is to die for.

Finally, the staff know how to run a restaurant, friendly and attentive but not pushy. No compulsory service charge either, which makes me more inclined to tip more.

Don't change a thing!

Fresh food, great quality, and generous portions. There isn't a lot to dislike about this place and it is nice retreat from the many overpriced, overrated and overcrowded Shoreditch restaurants
