I can't believe how long I've waited to nosh at this stunning spot! Went for the price fixe 4 course and was completely satisfied. We tried one each of the appys, french onion/ tomatoe soup was awesome and the eggplant with cheese and arugula was so perfect!
Plums with cheese and nuts was the next, and pork Belly to die for! Perfectly crispy with tender meat.
Rainbow trout on apple and pearl barely was fresh and flavourful, and my spatzel with beef Mushroom ragout was such a blend of magical tastes.
Buzz tart with chocolate ice cream was perfect but her canele was a beautiful sculpture that tasted equally beautiful.
If u haven't taken a cruise downtown London, this is def worth it. We parked in the Citi plaza two blocks away for 4 dollars, covered with security patrols.

Went here for my partner and I's anniversary.
They obviously try to do interesting things with the menu, and I can definitely appreciate that. I think the easiest thing to do here is to make a baseball analogy. Grace swings and swings hard. Sometimes, the swings turn out really well, and sometimes they turn out poorly.
Zucchini fritters was decent and the sauces it came with were unique, but the fritter itself could have been crispier and better salted. Boston cream salad was crisp and refreshing tasting, but overall didn't leave a big impact.
Burrata was excellent, very fresh. The apricot jam was delicious with it. Again, the tortilla chips were underseasoned and lackluster. The crudo was interesting but the whitefish itself didn't have a ton of flavour and the amount of roe was sparse (its saltiness was very needed to balance out how sweet the rest of the dish was).
For the mains, both dishes, a whitefish loin and a steak, had questionably sweet components. Why does my main course need sweet mushroom jam, or compressed watermelon? Flavour wise it didn't make sense and didn't go exceptionally well together. Funnily, the smoked potatoes with the steak reminded me of how All Dressed Ruffles taste.
For dessert, the lavender crepe was just okay, it reminded me of a worse lemon bar. However, the chocolate cake with miso ice cream was incredible, and oddly perhaps the most deep flavour-wise of anything on the menu. The cake was moist and fudgey, the ice cream both sweet and umami, and the sesame crisp on top gave the whole thing some great texture variety.
Highly recommend both the chocolate cake and the burrata. Everything else was just okay to mediocre.
Service wise, the servers were nice and attentive but each course took about 30 minutes to come out and so the entire dinner took over 2 hours which imo is way too long.
Overall worth it? I'm not sure, it probably depends on the exact menu they have going at the time. There's sparks of genius in here, but the execution perhaps is on the fence. I liked it, but didn't love it.
It was the best meal I’ve had in the city in years. Pictured is an eggplant fritter with cheeses and herbs (“Garden frost”) on the menu. I had meant to photograph each dish as they came out, but I quickly forgot after the first dish because it was too good. Each dish was well thought out, plated beautifully, and all were unique.
The portion sizes mean that you really should order the prix fixe of four courses, whereas a la carte ordering might leave you wanting.
