This charming little restaurant is one of a chain of three, all in the Kensington / Notting Hill and South Kensington areas. I have been to all of them a few times.

The decor in this one, as I mentioned, is charming with fairy lights, a domed glass skylight, vine-like plants and gilded pictures abounding.

The black-clad waiting staff were all charming as well, and efficient with it and I'm sure the food would have been charming, if it had been able.

Even the other diners looked not short in the charm department - though that could have been the house wine, which was very good indeed. I had a tomato and onion salad to start with which was excellent (though not much can go wrong with a tomato and onion salad) and my companion had mussels, which you can do a lot wrong with, and they were very good too.

We both had risotto for mains, mine with mushrooms and hers with seafood and we were, not surprisingly, enchanted with both. On top of all this, it is also reasonably priced - very well worth a visit.

The Owner - Enrico
See if you can catch "Enrico" the owner getting in the way of the staff when it gets busy.

Beleive me, he does smile, even if the photo doesn't show his best side.
