"Tucked away from the road in a pedestrian square between office blocks (it was a little difficult to find), a signpost led us to a delightful square with a ground fountain feature, where children were splashing about in swimming cistumes on a sunny Friday evening. This was a chic boutique size restaurant whose apparentlt basic menu did not appear to celebrate the true quality of its food, which was outstanding. Each course was delicious and melted in our mouths. It was very quiet (few customers, surprisingly), with just some gentle background music and a perfect setting for a romantic evening out."

"This is an exceptional restaurant that specializes in Sichuan cuisine. Contrary to many beliefs, this is not always spicy hot! We ordered a good variety of dishes and they were all absolutely fantastic. As we do not live in London, this place is on our priority list when we make the trip. The food is incredible, and over the past decade has actually made us come to London just for their unique dishes."

"we had an unforgettable evening at OPS wines, the wee was phenomenal, the eating was delicious (we would highly recommend the flame chouriço) and the service was impeccable. we had been lucky to have met the owner pedro who took time to talk to us about his incredible journey to open OPS wines and recommend the perfect wee to our preferences. the weebar itself has a very special atmosphere, which it lies in one of the arches and has a wonderfully rustic and intimate atmosphere. perfect for a date night (as we had), but we also saw a birthday party and various other group meetings. we will definitely be back here!"

"I had a lovely experience at this restaurant and the food was delicious! It was my first time trying Persian cuisine and I found it to be very refined and mild, yet still full of flavor. The staff even brought out a cake when they heard it was my birthday. I would definitely return to this restaurant!"
