I went with high expectations, as their sister restaurant Carnicero is arguably my favorite place…read morein Southampton. Ended up going for dinner and was coincidentally taken for lunch the following day. While no complaints, it is not as clear cut a winner as Carnicero. For dinner, I started with the steak tartare. It was good, small amounts of tartare over four airy crackers, but not incredible. For a main, I had the hake and that was great. The herb crust had lots of flavor, the fish was fresh but the meal was stolen by the incredible gnocchi, I am not a huge fan normally but these were fantastic. Service was friendly but it felt like they were still figuring it out, given that there were almost as many servers as covers, there seemed to be large gaps in the service. My lunch was also good, and service more efficient. I had the barley salad with prawns, a little disappointing as the prevalence of capers overpowered the rest of the meal. Not bad, but a little too caper heavy. In terms of ambiance, they did a fantastic job with the fit out and it had both a clean and modern look. Overall a good meal but not yet Carnicero.

Walked to the area from a nearby hotel looking for somewhere to have dinner. Saw this place had…read moresome nice outdoor seating and went inside. I waited a while before a server came, by then I was ready to order. I was surprised they did not have fountain drinks, only warm bottles of soda. After I ordered, another guy was seated outside. He sat there a while without anyone going to his table and he left. My appetizer took about 20 minutes to come out. I ate half of it with the intention of taking the rest of it with me for later. When the lasagna I ordered was brought to the table, I had been there for almost an hour. I also had to stop the server from taking away my partially eaten appetizer. I was expecting a slice of lasagna, but it appears they made them one at a time in a skillet in the oven. It was served extremely hot, enough that they put a sticker on the skillet saying so. The cheese around the edge was burned, and it ended up being a meat, cheese, and noodle mess. I ate as much as I wanted to, then waited for my server to come back so I could get the bill and box. Eventually, I was one of only 2 tables left in the place, and none of the servers were visible. I saw there was a way to pay with my phone, so I just ate what I was going to take with me, paid, and left just under 2 hours after I originally arrived. Far too long for 1 person to have 1 appetizer and 1 entrée.

By the menu, I thought this would be an upscale experience, it was not. The other food was okay, I enjoyed my husband's lasagna, but again. There were maybe 4 big bites at a pretty steep price tag. With the exception of the lasagna (which was still overpriced), it tasted like cheap eats. I do not wish to be mean, I just cannot believe they're charging those prices for that quality and quantity of food. I truly hope others have better experiences!

Went here for my father-in-law's birthday celebration and the place is pretty good. The food was…read morecooked well, and the service we received was quite pleasant. But, the starter I had was rather lacklustre - I had the crispy duck pancakes. The crispy duck was so overcooked that I couldn't bite into it, it was that tough. The entree (mains) was pretty good, for the most part. It was a Sunday Roast, so we had our choice of various types of proteins (the sides were the same for each dish though - mashed squash, parsnip, broccoli, boiled potatoes & a yorkshire pudding .. oh and an ocean of gravy) - pork, beef, chicken fish or vegetarian nut-loaf. I had the pork roast and though the meat was cooked quite well, I was very underwhelmed with the pork crackling provided. I had an itty-bitty square of pork crackling, it was so miniscule that it just wasn't worth it. Because we were a fairly largish group (10 adults, 2 kids) the service was a tad slow between courses. And for the mains the 2 kids were served last. Generally this isn't a good idea, as kids can get rather cranky if not fed, but thankfully the kids this time round were pretty good, nibbling other people's food until their actual meals came out. Overall the place is pretty good, price was very decent and the service was rather pleasant. I would like to come back one more time, not on a Sunday, to see what they are like. I really wanted their Beef Bourguignon, but sadly it was unavailable on a Sunday.
