    The chateaubriand is fantastic. As is the chocolate fondant with some of the most amazing ice cream I have ever tasted. The rhubarb soufflé is great as well!

    Very good all around, service food and wine. Great setting in a converted chapel and not excessive noise despite the high ceilings. Great restaurant deserving its Michelin Star. Near Liverpool Street.

    The Menu Gourmand is a fantastic 7 course tasting menu - the crab lasagne and truffle risotto are both exceptional. Service was attentive and the dining room is hugely impressive. Great dinner.

    We tried 5 course tasting menu, its absolutely delicious. Crab lasagne, signature dish of the chef, is sublime!!The menu is 35,5 £ and worth every penny! Matching wines are also brilliant!

    Great restaurant and amazing interior. Had the 7-course menu with wine pairing and I must say the food, the service, the wines were excellent. Fabulous experience, thank you

    The venue is beautiful and reminds me of being in a modernised barn. I highly recommend the fillet and cheek of beef dish - the textures and tastes in your mouth are exquisite.

    Beautiful place to have dinner. Service on the edge in between attentiveness and annoyingness. Public aged 35+.

    The space is beautiful, the service excellent, and the food good. But for some reason it doesn't quite equal the quality and taste of the other Galvin locations.

    This non-meat eater ditched her principles when she saw the foie gras. Michelin star foie gras, though!

    Service was all over the place but food was great. The prix fix they offer before 7pm is incredibly good value

    If the Sunday press of people around Brick Lane and Spitalfields gets a bit much, you can always retreat to the cossetting interior and service of this branch of a modern French chain. Read more

    The 7 course Gourmand Menu was wonderful. Attentive but unobtrusive service and some delicious wine pairings too.

    Delicious menu. Portions look small but definitely filling. Fantastic service. Beautiful restaurant. Slightly open kitchen to watch chefs in action.

    I didn't expect there's a nice restaurant like this in the streets of Liverpool. We enjoyed the food and service. Formal dresses are recommended.

    Went for weekday lunch and service was appalling for a Michelin starred restaurant. The food and the presentation of it was quite breathtaking though.

    The third restaurant to be opened by acclaimed brothers Chris & Jeff Galvin. There is a menu gourmand, prix fixe lunch and early dinner menu and Sunday Roast lunch menu.

    The pigeon was amazing. So well cooked. Pricey, as one would imagine, given the Michelin star.

    Restaurant is beautiful, inside and an old chapel, get the cheese board - selection is fantastic.

    The menu is almost pastiche-worthy bistro French. Come summer, the pavement tables will be like gold dust: the pefect combo of people watching and great food. Metro gave it 4 out of 5 Stars. Read more

    It's tasty and the service is great, but for the price, it's boring. It's another Michelin star place where I don't get why they have a star.

    I do like this little French bistro though I am not sure about the new addition of takeaway hotdogs and coffee section.

    The Menu Gourmand is hugely worth it. Try it with the wine pairing. And omg, the truffle risotto is divine...

    The food is good but watch out for those high prices. Main dining room is quiet and awkward aka "fancy". Pineapple desert was on point
