Have wanted to visit for many years as I live close by but have been slightly put off by the lack of variety for vegans and vegetarians (as is the case in most high end restaurants). Decided to put these reservations aside as the festive cocktails looked so appealing. From start to finish it was a polished, professional and delicious experience and does make you wonder why you’d ever bother going into London to find fine dining again when it’s right on your doorstep. Was welcomed into the bar first where the cocktails were wonderful (and potent!) then tried the vegetarian gnocchi with sides. Although the portions look small, the food is rich and filling, and a delight to the tastebuds. Another big win for me is food served on hot plates as I eat very slowly and hate cold food. Why doesn’t every restaurant do this? Perfect service and will definitely be back.

We visited Chapter One for a birthday celebration with my wife and son.
There was no kids menu, but it wasn't a problem for us.
The service was excellent—polite and attentive staff.
We had a three-course set menu. While the monkfish starter wasn’t to my taste, the venison main was very good. I really liked the pie on the side. The dessert was delicious, and the whole family thoroughly enjoyed the meal.

It's a very good restaurant, but it doesn't have the London gloss and for £270 you can visit a very good restaurant in London.

A beautifully appointed restaurant and overall fine dining experience.
On arrival we were warmly greeted by our hosts and escorted to our table by numerous friendly and courteous staff.
Service was swift, polished professional. Our waitress was a lovely lady, very patient in answering our questions and engaging in conversation about the restaurant.
Starter was a lobster raviolo and was really delicious, the delicate crepe pastry went really well with the lightness of the lobster filling.
Main course was venison, beautifully presented and cooked to perfection although I think the portion size should have been just a bit larger.
Dessert was a lovely warm apple tart tatin, rich with cinnamon and well balanced between the sweet and the tartness.
The only issue is a minor one and is largely not the fault of the restaurant. There was a party of approximately seven people in the middle of the room who started loud and made more and more noise as the night wore on until my friend and I literally couldn't hear our own conversation. The staff totally failed to address this problem so I had to take it upon myself to quieten them down in my own inimicable style. It was frustrating that a Michelin star fine dining experience was marred by the failure of the staff to deal with people who had all the grace of a hen night in Blackpool. I'm not overreacting or being a snob about this. I have no problem with people having fun and being a bit boisterous but this was just ridiculous.
Other than that minor blemish I think this is a really good restaurant and well worth a visit.

So pleased I was able to get a last minute booking in the brasserie, as it was a really lovely meal. Attentive service, a great mojito, and really tasty food! The tuna tacos were my favourite and the sea bream was cooked perfectly.
Planning to return for the a la carte 3 course menu soon.

OVERVIEW
Posh restaurant, post food, posh service BUT, à la carte menu offers quality over quantity food at extortionate prices!

PLUS
+ The restaurant is described as “Modern European food,” which it is indeed! might I add prepared with fresh, tasteful, and of the finest quality ingredients.
+ Despite a constantly changing menu, one is always able to find a menu favourite as the food on this restaurant's à la carte menu remains top-notch at a 5* level!
+ A variety of different menu choices that cater to all food preferences.
+ The “pan-fried south coast hake” was fresh, cooked in a rich, flavourful, and creamy sauce, accompanied by green legumes, which complimented the dish better than any carbs.
+ The “glazed vanilla crème brûlée” was very good.
+ The complementary breadbasket came with homemade butter bread, which came straight out of the oven! It was rich and buttery the best bread I have had in my life! table of 5 consensus.
+ Complimentary starter and dessert sweets.
+ The brasserie dining area is posh, private, and intimate. Perfect anniversary or Valentine’s Day spot!

MINUS
- A main meal alone was not enough to fulfil and satisfy, as most mains on the à la carte menu had starter portion sizes.
- Overpriced, at around £75 for a three-course meal, that is not part of the a la carte set menu.
- A table is restricted to orders from one of the menus only, defeating the purpose of having multiple menu options.
- The “tandoori Cornish monkfish” was fresh but slightly under-cooked and so subtle in favour you would not associate it with Indian tandoori, consensus of 3. The citrus salads and tzatziki, however, were flavourful and complimented the fish well.
- The “strawberry cheesecake” had a fancy presentation but did not taste like cheesecake at all (consensus of 2).
- The restaurants could benefit from a quick, hassle-free table QR code payment method, with the option to individually self-select payments or split the bill between the group.
- Due to limited walking availability, you have to book weeks in advance to get a table at the brasserie dining area.
- Limited and odd opening hours.

TABLE ORDERS

* Pan-fried South Coast Hake
* Roast rack of new season Kentish lamb
