10 Greek Street - London

A small but beautiful restaurant that provides high quality food. I like that it is simple and not describing in contrast to many other restaurants. the focus on good and service was great. Unfortunately, they cannot book in advance, but it is worth checking the availability.

Good attentive service, nice starters of crab and duck liver, then served barely cooked lobster. I love sushi, so decided not to send it back. It was served as if from a fridge too cold, and had therefore lost some of its flavour. It was served with 4 tiny new potatoes, that were warm. Had to ask for lobster crackers, and we were given one instrument to get the meat out. The couple at the table next to us were so close we could hear every...read more

Good seasonal food in a casual and cool setting I have wanted to try
