We choose the hungry monk when we want a treat but do not want to be let down. The atmoshere is so warm and friendly. From the monks chanting in the lavatories to the banter from the staff. The menu is just lovely and am yet to try everything. I adore the rissottos which change all the time.  More

Down stairs has a lovely atmosphere (romantic with candles) and upstairs has great character too (especially the very friendly waiter). Let downs were: A salty ricotto A average stake And a compulsory service change even though there was only 2 of us. More

The Upstairs Section of this restaurant is of Fine Dining Quality and is perfect for making that good impression. Downstairs Food is served Bistro style and is also of the highest standard. Overall an excellent restaurant to visit. More

Living on its reputation a bit.. last meal I had there was totally average. maybe its because I'm a Veggie and ther focus mostly on meat.. But very bland pasta dish did little for me.. service was nothing special... totally forgotten for most of the evening. More

I booked with Julian via phone earlier in the afternoon, and he was more than pleasant, offering us a table upstairs with the proviso that it would be needed again by 8.30. No problem, we wanted to eat early, so arrived at about 6.30 to be seated at a lovely table upstairs. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and initial... More
