D Sum 2

We were on a leaving dinner for a work friend paid by the company. The food is excellent but it is very central London pricing (£18burger, £30 steak) designed for expense accounts. Not a ton of vegetarian options as this place is about meat meat and meat. The place was almost empty so service was quick and efficient but therefore there wasn't really an atmosphere. The design is quite distinctive and there's even a cocktail bar so assume it could be better on a Friday night.

Great Restaurant A lovely restaurant at the bottom of the Old Bailey, you feel the history as you walk down. A warm greeting from awaited us from the Floor Supervisor Alice who took us to a well stocked bar before we sat at our table. I loved the feel of the actual menu, it felt like cowhide which added to the ambience of being in a chop house. Our table waiter for food was Alejandro who was very friendly, and after taking our order and asking about allergies, finished with "no further questions"....given the proximity to the Old Bailey I found quite humorous! We had the sourdough bread, rarebit soldiers, hot salt beef brisket sandwich and the burger, with fries. Great meal, well cooked in the open kitchen (spotlessly clean) by Wesley. Now I am not sure just how excited you can get with fries, just they were delicious.....Like eating crispy air! Our drinks waiter, Yannick, was very attentive and knowledgeable and kept a steady flow of great cocktails. The evening finished with an introduction to the GM, Red. Friendly and engaging and willing to spend time with Customers, always a winner with me. The price point was good, with an option to upgrade if you feel to do so. We will definitely return and would not hesitate to recommend......Thank you Team PCH :)

I was surprised how quiet the restaurant was for a Saturday night, but I don't mind quiet! The staff were friendly and the food was excellent - The starter menu is a bit odd so we went straight to the main and then just had sorbet for desert. I remember when this restaurant was based right next to St. Pauls, it's not as busy or as good as it was then, but still worth a visit.
