Pippi, I don't mind paying good money for good food. We do almost exclusively go for the special seafood starters (scallops, cuttlefish, octopus etc.), then the fish-based dishes because they are always of an exceptional standard. I've had a number of the meat dishes too which have been generally great, though a couple have not been to my taste. If I had a gripe it would be that the "standard" menu is rarely updated and isn't particularly inspiring - though the lamb cutlets are always a delicious backup if I am not in the mood for any of the specials. The décor is also a bit bright and not very "restauranty", mostly down to it being a previous nursery. Doesn't bother me at all. The maitre'd is a bit of a local character. When we first moved to the area I'll concede that we found his "direct" style somewhat abrasive but since we have got to know him, he goes out of his way to ask how my family is, how I am and so on. Lovely chap believe it or not. Our bill normally comes to about £70-£80 with bread, starters, main courses, desserts and one bottle of wine. This is, I think, par for the course in London for good quality seafood.
