Not living up to expectations

Food:
We opted for the 10-course Vegan tasting menu, which began promisingly with a series of intriguing, beautifully presented, and flavorful dishes. However, the experience went down hill with the desserts, which were underwhelming, unpleasant and did not live up to the high standards set by the earlier courses.

Ambiance:
The ambiance was less than ideal, as I was seated directly in front of a glaring light throughout the two-hour meal, which detracted from the overall experience. My partner kept having to position his head to block the light from my eyes.

Service:
Unfortunately, the service was the weakest aspect of the evening. It began with our host asking if we'd like to check our coats, despite us being right in front of her and not wearing any. Constant interruptions of our conversation ensued with frequent and redundant inquiries about our experience-each time we finished a course, we were asked how we felt about that dish, sometimes more than once. At the end of the meal, we were even asked to declare our favorite course. Plates were cleared from one diner while the other was eating.

A moment of confusion came with a crackers and dip dish, which was served in two parts, ten minutes apart. First, the crackers were brought out, and then the dip followed, with no explanation until we asked.

Value:
At nearly £300 for two (without alcohol), we did not feel that the meal provided value for money, especially given the lack of consistency in both the food and service. On the walk back to the hotel we passed place after place radiating light and laughter after our gloomy experience in a near empty restaurant.

Incredible Experience

The best vegan tasting menu we’ve ever tried. We had the ten course vegan tasting menu and it was an incredible experience. The restaurant is a small space with a personal touch, informative staff that make every dish an experience, we were there for about three hours and enjoyed every dish. The fully vegan tasting menu had a variety of dishes along with wine pairings if wanted. A must visit for any veggie / vegan looking for a special evening! We highly recommend.

Pros: An experience to remember , Vegan tasting menu, Sensational flavours

Delicious and Special

We celebrated our first wedding anniversary here before seeing a show and they took great care of us. Since we were short on time they offered an off menu 6 course tasting menu and had us out of there at the exact time we requested. Food was absolutely lovely, unique flavors, and they give you enough bread to keep you full, which is not always the case with tasting menus. My husband had the non vegan menu (no beef is offered) and also raved about it. If you are looking to celebrate something special this is the place. Thank you to all the staff who were do attentive and kind!

Devine plant based menu

The most delightful tasty and imaginative vegan menu. We had the 8 course tasting menu and every dish was superb. Some favourites were saffron fava canapé, the smoked artichoke and the chocolate pumpkin dessert not to mention the petite four. As you would expect there was an extensive drinks menu and you can pair wines if you wish. There was also a great selection of Mocktails. The service was impeccable. If you have the budget I would highly recommend a visit.

Pros: Tasting menu, Mocktails, Service

Fantastic fine dining!

We really enjoy the outstanding food, the friendly team and the atmosphere. 7 course vegan menu! We came back and it was even better than last time. Everything is so special and makes you happy. Recommended for special occasions.

Extraordinary

Best vegan fine dining I have ever had. The food was immaculate. Me and my boyfriend had an 8 course tasting menu for his birthday while his family had the meat option and we never felt left out or that the vegan option was worse than the meat one for any of the meals. We were extremely content and it exceeded our expectations.

Pros: As many vegan options as meat non vegan, Cheaper than the omnivore option, Deliscious

Cons: Expensive (def worth it for a special occasion)

Michelin star, fine dining restaurant

Loved our fine dining experience. Service was good and it wasn’t pretentious. The menu is very creative. This was a special meal for our anniversary and was perfect as I was able to have the vegan menu and my husband was happy as he isn’t vegan so it catered for both of us.

Pros: A la carte, or 8 or 10 course sample menu, Michelin Star

Wonderful

I had a wonderful vegan meal. Opted for the lunch complet and had five delicious courses. Each one was paired with a wine (for my friend) or a mock tail (for me).
Staff were friendly and attentive. Didn’t feel pretentious despite being a Michelin star restaurant.
Can’t wait to return!

Pros: Beautiful vegan food, Friendly staff , Great service

Pied a Terre

I've eaten at Pied a Terre a number of times now and am never disappointed. During lock down they started offering vegan takeaway boxed meals, which were fantastic. Highly recommended for a special occasion or fancy date.

Review from June 2019:
I had a great vegan tasting menu at Pied a Terre (a Michelin Star restaurant) for my birthday. The service was excellent and the waiters were friendly. The meal took about 3 hours from start to finish but that time really flew by. I attached photos for each part but wanted to highlight the following

#1 "Snacks": We received bread with a planter filled with "dirt" made of olives with two radishes inside. While the dirt was a little too dry/crumbly, I was very impressed with the idea of this.

#2 "Summer Salad": Very good except the flowers tasted similar to goat cheese (there was no goat cheese), and I had a hard time with that part.

#3 "Carrot Veloute": Extra delicious with dark green/black surprise liquid in the middle--I think this was the black garlic consomme? This was my favorite item on the menu.

#4 "Stuffed Tomato": Very good and creative. I wish I received two of these! :)

#5 "Artichoke Salad": Good and bad. Hated the mushrooms but loved everything else.

#6 "Asparagus/Potato": Just OK. I only liked the potatoes in this dish and sent the rest back.

#7 "Vegan Cheese": Can I please have some more??? This was too delicious.

#8 "Blood Orange Soup": Who knew foam could be so delicious?

#9 Dessert: Delicious but some cakes were dry. Bonus points for the happy birthday message!

#10 Tea and Snacks: Nice tea and vegan fruit gels.
