                                      Exceptional food that speaks for itself! Unfortunately the service did not match expectation of a Michelin guide and from previous experiences at kicky’s on this occasion- staff did not pour or monitor wine/drinks, dropped plates at our table and took them back as gave us the next tables food by mistake, too fast pacing at beginning of meal and then long wait for mains.

Cracking wine list - whites served from magnums?! Wonderful! I had heard from friends and colleagues that this was going to be good, and what had promised to be excellent was over-delivered on at every point. A seriously enjoyable and enjoyably serious experience!
