Recommended by muttley on london.food; looks interesting if potentially pricy. Received a Michelin star in 2007. Apparently they'll serve any wine on the menu as a 250ml carafe, handy if you're dining on your own, or you want to try out an expensive wine you're not sure you'll like. Looks pretty useless for vegetarians, though. They seem to reply to email fairly promptly.
Kat et al. visited on Thurs 31st May. Started with lovely seasonal asparagus and fried duck egg that arrived in a frying pan! The main course of lamb, sweetbreads and artichoke was absolutely wonderful, as was the rabbit wrapped in bacon - heartily recommended for any carnivore. Puddings were lovely too.
The staff were very efficient, friendly and knowledgeable, choosing appropriate wines for us.
We booked two weeks in advance in order to get a 7.30pm table but a couple of days' notice would have sufficed for an early or late seating.
3 courses plus bread, water, wine and service all came to under £50/head, and well worth it! I will definitely return.
