Food was very good. Probably the best in the free house chain. It was fairly quiet so maybe happy hour should start at 2pm vs 3pm which could draw more people in sooner on a quieter day.

A warning that you are getting chunks of potato instead of true fries with fish n chips would have been nice. Fish was a bit chewy on the ends so didn’t seem fresh or overcooked. No need for mustard but coleslaw is an expected classic that was missing.

Will never go back, while nice ambience the food not up to par and tasteless. Ordered per peri chicken and katsu burger. Had way better peri peri at Nandos. Was served a tiny piece with stick fries with peri peri sauce just coated over it , absolutely no taste. Katsu burger was hard and over cooked chicken which was chewy and also tasteless. They don’t know how to make a good old fashion. Will never go back , paid $95.00 for garbage food.

Reservation was for a specific Chelsea FC supporters event and not during normal business hours. For this particular event the food was great and the customer service fantastic. If I was not coming for this event and just a regular customer then I would still give a favorable rating. Location is easy to find and very clean and table seating has options from booth style to high top tables and bar. Great experience so far.

This place did not disappoint! Was visiting from the states and this place was recommend to us for dinner. We had reservations on a Saturday. We walked in and we're seated right away. Servers were young and very well dressed. Dress code is more business casual. The restaurant is very aesthetic, urban and trendy. They are playing music and have televisions. This place is definitely catered to the more to the 20-30 yr old crowd. We ordered drinks and food and it all came out in a timely manner. The food was absolutely delish. After reading some reviews on this place, yea the servers look intimidating but if you are nice to them and chat with them they are super nice. We had a lovely conversation with our server and she even recommended some places and bars to check out! I would recommend making reservations before visiting and again, this place is geared more to the younger crowd and is also run by a younger crowd. If you're old and picky then don't come here. If your young and looking for an aesthetic place with yummy food and drinks, then this place is for you.

I do a lot of work lunches and wanted a break from Cactus. This was a mistake. This restaurant is SO loud. The chairs were broken… we each had one cocktail and they were terrible. Who puts an entire sprig of Rosemary in a Caesar… co-workers steak was covered in a super salty gravy, fries were actually good, veggie dumplings had all burst open so hard to eat. Overall super disappointing. Staff was friendly but hard to find.
