Thomas KnüwerDecember 26, 2018The 2 Michelin stars are well earned. Smyth is keeping the balance between classic French cooking and modern ideas about what we should eat. The tasting menu was absolutely impressive.

"Ground floor is a more casual all day dining space and the spiral stairs will lead you to the more formal dining space. The avocado toast in their breakfast menu is amazing"
Angela Liu - 8.7
"Loved the interaction with the chefs! The highlights were the dessert courses- they were life-changing. I still think about the candle-grown rhubarb dessert and canele often. Skip the truffle course."
Ashley Chan - 8.6
"The beef dripping candle is an excellent opener in a varied tasting menu. It's Scandinavian in style (both the food and the decor) with very fresh flavours. Bring a book to add to their collection."
