This place is good, but there's definitely room for improvement. What we liked: nice ambiance and interior design. Of the food, the brussel sprouts and mushroom tempura was my fav. What can be improved: the lamp that was directly over our table was flickering dark and light the entire night, it got exhausting near the end. I was super disappointed in the wine choices by the glass. There were only maybe 3 and the full bodied one was nothing  like what I normally like, huge bummer as this is a wine spot. The cabbage was way under done and tasted pretty awful despite the nice charring. My friend and I wanted to do the tasting menu but she can't eat mushrooms and they weren't able to accommodate, also disappointing. Definitely open to giving it one more shot, hopefully there will be more positive changes in a few months!

Made a reservation through their website for New Year's Day. Come out from Stratford to arrive for the booking. Place is shut. Three other groups were there in the same boat. 

Pardon me for assuming that booking a reservation means you will actually be open, bank holiday or not. 

Eater's endorsement of this place was wasted on it.

An impressive spot with amazing food!!! The service was impeccable and atmosphere was bar none. Definitely a main stay when I'm London! Highly recommended

Simply superb: an umami extravaganza, with wide and
interesting wine list... The Guardian review got it right!

Went here on a recommendation from my cousin, who lives nearby. The place specializes in natural wines and the gentleman in charge was very friendly (as was his dog!) and also eager to share his knowledge and passion for the wines on offer. The food menu was not very broad but they were happy to accommodate our varying tastes and we were very satisfied with what we ate. The food menu is, I think, made up daily and might not be reflected on the website. There is also a wine shop downstairs, which I didn't look at.
