Harden's survey result
Summary
This old-school Soho wine bar, est. 1977, has real character and is “a great favourite” of both regular and more occasional visitors, drawn by its “good, down-to-earth” bistro cooking, “wide range of wines at decent prices” and by Simon Pearson, who bought the business 30 years ago. “The patron is always present – and it shows.” “This place is really consistent – I first visited in 1987 and have never been disappointed.”
Summary
“With lashings of individuality”, this unreconstructed Soho wine bar from 1977 stands out for its “old-fashioned style and service” – “the owner, Simon, and his crew simply deliver!” – and “is still going strong with a traditional menu” of “classic French bistro food” (gravadlax, calf’s liver, steak…). There’s also a “most interesting wine list that has great depth at good prices, rather than too many wines at very high prices”. It can, though, “become a little overcrowded (due to its seeming popularity with the Chartered Surveyors’ Tribe)”.
For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
