It’s good, of course it is, but so it should be, considering the prices. A menu that is full of imagination as well as classic dishes. The service was ok, strong on visual appeal, but not so strong on the basics of providing a meal quickly and efficiently. Wine list is immense, with lots of variety. The room is an odd shape but it works, the atmosphere (at dinner) was quite formal; the clientele, the type you expect in that part of town – a well dressed contemporary crowd who all like themselves a bit too much. Good for intimate dining with well dressed friends, bad for relatives young or old whose table manners can't be trusted and who don't scrub up well.
