Sarah-Kate's Reviews

This is a very refreshing new restaurant situated right in the centre of town. The four of us really enjoyed our Sunday lunch here, and felt we could really take our time. The food is very tasty – a charcol / bbq flavour to every meal, which is so different and are great flavours all year round. The overall menu is quite rustic, consistent to Jamie's other restaurants which I love. We had the best table in the restaurant as we sat by the window right in front of St Paul's Cathedral which made the entire experience one worth remembering.

Hush was a lovely venue to vist tucked away in a hidden little street just a short walk from Bond St Station. We started off in the bar upstairs while we waited for our table outside which was perfect. Though when the menu came out i was very disappointed to find not much of a range at all. The only thing that looked appealing to me was the dessert menu, as they had a wider range than usual places. The food arrived before our wine which was annoying after asking the waiter a few times where it was. And the service just got worse from there really. We watched a waitress walk off into a corner of the restaurant and go a bit crazy muttering to herself really angrily and standing there for ages thinking about it before she carried on with her work. I watched about 2 other tables complain to the waiters about where their meals were so I knew it wasn't just us that was having trouble. Then they didn't want to accept our voucher but eventually was ok with it. The food and service really lets this place down because it really is a fantastic place otherwise and quite unique. I love the various levels of the restaurant and the photos of celebrities on the walls before the toilets. But don't come here for the food or service!

The best thing about this restaurant is the food. Mr Wing delivers the very traditional favourite Chinese recipes, but cooked more healthily and without all the extra MSG. I have taken several lots of frends here and every time they have commented on how great the food is compared to other Chinese restaurants (much better than anywhere in China Town, London). I find it a little pricey, but don't mind paying with the quality of food that is presented every time. On a Saturday night they usually have a pianist or other musician which adds to the unique atmosphere. There are several great areas of the restaurant to sit in – my favourite being next to the bright blue fish tanks, but there are also cute little alcoves suitable for a group. I defiantely reccommend giving this restaurant a chance if you love your traditional chinese but don't want to walk out feeling horrible like you've had too much MSG. A nice modern Chinese restaurant but with traditional flavours.
