The food was ok, nothing better than that. But the service was amateurish and provincial.

It's possible I was just unlucky. As I said, I've only been once. If I ever get dragged there on the misapprehension I'm going someone else, then I might be able to form another judgement.

The friend with whom I went lives quite nearby, in Little Venice. (A name which always makes me wonder if Venice sometimes styles itself "Big Paddington"). He may have been on other occasions so I'll check his view.
