Another amazing experience at L.E.S.S. Eatery!  The dumplings were so good we ordered a second round!  We came here in April and were absolutely blown away by the flavors.  We brought our friends tonight and LESS surpassed our expectations!  We definitely recommend sharing any dishes you order to try the variety offered.

The food was superb. Our palates danced the tango and waltzed with our tongues at the same time. Each course of our 7-course surprise menu was unique and fascinated us. Ok, it wasn't cheap but we haven't eaten such good and interesting flavours for a long time. Absolutely recommendable for someone who is bored of pizza steak kebab noodles et.

Way overpriced - more like fast food quality restaurant in Japan or Taiwan rather than fine dining.  I’d say the whole meal probably worth €80 instead of €220 we paid.

We had a few dishes - oyster in dashi sauce, hamachi with tacos, Hiroshima A5 wagyu, lobster, fried rice and “dan dan noodle”.

The dishes were presented nicely but the Dan Dan noodle was a disaster!  The noodle is definitely a packet of instant noodles (sadly, the cheap ones) and way over-cooked. Too soggy and no texture at all. Perhaps the chef should really go Taiwan or somewhere far east to try a proper Dan Dan noodle out before they serve that to customers. The soup was ok in terms of flavour but way too thick, more like a sauce than a soup.

Secondly, fried rice… I can see they tried to make their fried rice like the Teppenyaki style fried rice from Japan but they have taken their spices and everything else way too over. A good fried rice should be dry, with a little bit of seasoning and perhaps some meat or seafood and spring onions but not filling up the bowl with those sprinkles all over the rice.

The appetizer we had - the oysters were ok but once again all the sauces and flavours added (despite they taste ok) just overtook the main ingredient. Can only taste the texture of oyster but not the taste from it. The flavourings just covered up everything. Same for the Hamachi. Hamachi was marinated to an extent which it looks more like salmon to me and all the freshness and unique taste of hamachi were gone.

Lobsters were ok - at least cooked to perfection - slightly bit undercooked- which is good. But again, too much flavouring.  We were like eating some form of meat in a lobster shell covered with sauce instead of an eating a lobster.

What was done really good was the A5 wagyu. Thanks to the chef who didn’t put sauce or flavourings of any kind on it.  I can finally taste the really flavour of the food I’m eating and they are also cooked to perfection. Definitely a A5 wagyu steak from Japan.

The service was brilliant - thanks to all your hard work in terms of serving customers - leaving a 2 star review for the restaurant.

I don’t know if anyone from the restaurant is reading, if yes, please pass a message to the head chef… “If you have faith in the quality of the ingredients you used for your dishes, just make it simple, do not add too much flavouring to your food, let the main ingredients speak. Do your dishes like what you’ve done to your wagyu, I’m sure they will be better. I don’t know whether this is the case here but usually most restaurant put lots of flavourings to their food simply because the ingredients are not up to standard or have been in the fridge / freezer for too long and they need sauces to cover up the flaws.  Most importantly, remove your Dan Dan noodle - it’s a disaster.”

One last thing, pay attention to your hygiene in food handling - I honestly want to leave after the appetizer as i saw one of your chef handle my food with bare hands after he bite his fingers out of boredom without washing his hands afterwards.  (That took 2 stars off service - table service was great though)

All in all, the quality maybe ok for some westerners who don’t really have a long history of culinary culture and not used to cooking but definitely a no no to people who really enjoy and treasure food.
