"A very average and pretty underwhelming dining experience. Those who praise it so highly need to venture out more and experience really good food and service if they think this place is ‘befitting Royalty’ Here’s what I liked: • I liked that I made the decision not to have a main course. Here’s what I didn’t like: • Not particularly welcoming. • No bread offered. First time in a French restaurant I’ve experienced this. • Uncomfortable seating and not a well thought layout. Why the covid screens still? Unsightly, ineffective and out of place now. • Really disappointing fish soup. Warm, not hot. The croutons were clearly not fresh and from a packet. Lacked crunch. Tiniest portion of cheese and rouille. I’ve hand on heart had better from a jar (and wouldn’t be surprised if this was as well) • The Sea Bass should have been served on a bigger plate and it seems to have been fried and then put in an oven. Average at best but the new potatoes were a tasteless waste of space. • The ‘pomme frites’ were soggy and not particularly crisp. Clearly frozen. Ketchup was some cheap brand and not particularly nice either. • Usual heavy mark up on sparkling water. Overall a disappointment as I had been looking forward to trying this Richmond restaurant. Do I recommend going? NO Will I go again? NO Was it good value? NO Price point: Vegetarian options: Caters very poorly for vegetarians or vegans. Service: Dine in Meal type: Lunch Price per person: £30–40 Food: 2 Service: 2 Atmosphere: 2 Recommendation for vegetarians: Would not recommend"
