"Our first visit to this delightful family run restaurant to celebrate my wife's birthday. We visited in the evening and were able to park right outside. The restaurant has a pleasant ambience. The staff were very welcoming and service throughout was very attentive without being intrusive. The menu offers a wide choice and we each selected 3 different steak cuts which were well cooked to our request. Prices are reasonable for the quality of the food. A nice touch was to add a lighted candle to my wife's dessert and orchestrate a chorus of happy birthday. An excellent experience only 4 stars for atmosphere but we ate early and I'm sure when it is full, the atmosphere will be 5 star vibrant. Thank you."

"I and my son occasionally discover this very elegant restaurant, just before the main entrance of the imperial college. did not immediately realize that it was a polish, but once inside, looking at quite customers and extremely professional and gentle waiters, was so glad that we have eaten some speciality one of the best and fast growing land in Eastern Europe! the most important courses were really delicious, and the smoked salmon with a kind of warm little pfan cake was absolutely! gran finale with their big vodka figa. 60, including 1 2lt polish. recommended also for a romantic dinner, but do not forget the figa as dessert"

"There is nothing wrong about this restaurant but it is also nothing special for the price range. Places like Eneko have menus at similar value and the food is exceptional, whereas the food in Quantus was not flawless. I was the “lucky one” since I seemed to order the best dishes in the menu: the sweetbreads, the grilled octupus and the nut cake. My husband ordered the Heirloom tomatoes salad and the tomatoes were tasteless. The chimichurri steak was ok, but far from the best. The same could be said from the crab cakes. The worse thing however were the deserts. My husband ordered a panna cotta which almost needed a knife to be eaten, and my friend ordered a chocolate mouse that had an off smell (we all noticed) and hence did not eat it. In addition when we arrived the restaurant was full but nobody had been served which resulted in us having to wait very long for the food. The service was very pleasant though and the octupus and nut cake were very good"

"Flew all the way from Boston today on the red eye to visit Chiswick and the Parle Pantry, a delightful vegan coffee and pastry spot, and it exceeded all my expectations! From the moment I walked in, the warm, inviting atmosphere and the friendly staff made me feel right at home. The coffee here is exceptional – rich, flavorful, and perfectly brewed. I tried their flat white with oat milk, and it was one of the best I've ever had. The pastries are a revelation; each one is a masterpiece of vegan baking. The chocolate croissant was flaky and indulgent, and the lemon poppy seed muffin was light, moist, and bursting with flavor. Had the porridge three times for breakfast after my 10k runs. Perfect fuel filled! Wish I could make at home in Boston. The variety is impressive, catering to all tastes with gluten-free options as well. The attention to detail and the quality of ingredients truly shine through in every bite. Whether you're a vegan or not, Parle Pantry is a must-visit. It's the perfect spot for a cozy coffee date or a quick treat. I can't wait to return and try more of their delectable offerings!"

"My daughter and I went to Wild Thyme to celebrate my birthday on Thursday. I thought the service was great and the young man very helpful. The food was lovely and we really enjoyed it. The ambience was good with little candles on each table. My only two suggestions would be to make the portion sizes a little bigger. I ordered the Cauliflower Bowl which was very yummy and the Prawns but as there were only three prawns in a portion I had to order a second portion as I was still hungry after both dishes. Also I would add some cocktail choices and some mocktails to the menu. Overall I thought the place lovely and I would definitely go again."
