Harden's says
With siblings in the 2nd and 16th arrondissements of Paris, this September 2023 newcomer aims to import its brand of ‘offbeat Parisian chic and sunny Italian generosity’ to Soho (on an intriguing cut-through between Greek Street and the Charing Cross Road). It’s a large spot – with 100 covers and a 50-seater terrace – where the focus is on pasta and pizza.
Harden's survey result
Summary
Tucked away in a new development near Tottenham Court Road tube (part of Ilona Rose House), this large and expensively designed October 2023 newcomer is the first London spin-off from a Parisian group. No survey feedback as yet, but in her November 2023 report The Guardian’s Grace Dent gave cautious approval to its “fancy pizza, titivated pappardelle and hyped-up tiramisu”: despite “expecting very little”, she judged the food “more than decent” (particularly the “huge, sloppy, soft-based and floofy-edged” pizza) and the overall venture “a vast, daft restaurant in the heart of tourist land, but… also much better than it needs to be”. Top Tip – it has a fair amount of outside seating on its terrace.

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).
