Harden's survey result
Summary
An “amazing newcomer” on the former Mayfair site of Wild Honey (RIP), where chef Miller Prada (who worked with Endo Kazutoshi at Endo at The Rotunda) infuses Japanese flavours into his dishes at a four-metre wood grill (using no electricity or gas in the cooking process). It’s “a very cool setting” with “notably good” service and the culinary invention of the technique means “every dish has a wow factor”. (However, both Giles Coren of The Times and William Sitwell of The Telegraph have found the experience “great… but pretentious”; “sublime… [but] somewhat self-satisfied”).
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).

Humo Restaurant Diner Reviews
"Whilst the dishes look stunning we found most of the food too rich with exaggerated flavours. Fabulous service though. "
"Recently obtained a Michelin star which resulted in an unwelcome price hike of £50 for lunch compared with their previous price. Nevertheless an excellent meal cooked on open fire by an enthusiastic team. Don't sit at the counter on a hot day! My tasting menu was over large which meant I struggled to finish but I really enjoyed the well executed food. Might return if their prices return to a more sensitive level."
