Dinner at @pastel__wine__bar from a few weeks ago: absolutely delicious food, nice cocktails, and friendly service. Great for sharing! . Chargrilled octopus skewer - taramasalata, salsa verde: so yummy and full of flavour! Party in your mouth 🙂🙂. . Beef tartare toast, smoked mussel, capers, dijon, pecorino: this was easily shared by cutting it in half, and I wish I didn't have to share because it was so good 😅😅. . Whipped ricotta - honey, thyme, za'atar, walnuts, grilled focaccia: not too rich, nice and simple. Delicious with the grilled focaccia! . Raw yellowfin tuna, blood orange, kumquat, salted chilli, parsley oil: really loved the citrusy flavours in this dish - super refreshing! . Fried eggplant, black vinegar, garlic, peanuts, chilli: nice bold flavours. Can't go wrong if you like eggplant. . Rigatoni alla vodka, kimchi, gochujang, nori, parmigano: always love a good dish with fusion flavours! The kimchi and gochujang are not too overpowering, and made it super yummy 🤤🤤. . Crispy viet chicken fish sauce caramel, lime, peanuts (half): very tender and juicy chicken! . Steak au poivre 350g dry aged sirloin, 5 peppercorn mix, served pink, with chips: perfectly done steak. Can't go wrong 🙂🙂. . Side dishes: Crunchy potatoes, rosemary salt Smashed cucumber, sichuan chilli oil, wood car mushroom, soy peanuts, ginger . Roasted hazelnut semifreddo, coffee cinnamon fig, hazelnut praline: I love anything with figs, and this was no exception. There's a subtle coffee flavour and not too overpowering. The semifreddo was yummy 😋😋. . Black sticky rice, coconut ice cream, brulee banana, toasted coconut: this was the more preferred dessert for all of us! Not too sweet and perfectly balanced flavours....

Hi, my name is Francesca I came down to visit with my mum. We are booked in reservation at 6:30 for two people rocked up got seated and noticed the customer service was very rude. He took the wineglass without even asking me just ashamed that I am under 18, and then I had to show my ID to prove that I’m 18. We noticed that the menu is very small and we ordered two octopus skewers for the small snack and to kingfish sashes for the main and coconut braised beef. Another serving of octopus skewers we had grey, goose, lemon lime, bitter. For dessert Whipped choc cream, and another dish which was hazelnut, semi Freddo. For dessert And a drink with Montenegro orange an ice with a side of lemonade. Overall, the service was horrible. I was judged because I didn’t 18 The gentleman was trying to service alcohol that once, and even the same brand was the name of sweet, very bitter when we suggested some alcohol is the lady just pulled a face and said no we don’t have that when you do have it. They didn’t come and clean up our table when the drinks spilled. The vibe is very hipster like/upper-class. The mills were tiny. Everyone judges you I love the skewers love, the kingfish, too, spicy the Beef. The lady came straight over and bring out how check which didn’t give us enough time to see how old going to do. The payment range which is very rude. Was in an out. No hey, it’s is not a settled down and have some time now in and out thing a rush hour. Wasn’t happy with our service at the Royal wasn’t happy with anything won’t be recommending and coming...

Pastel wine bar are ticks across my books. My husband and I visited this restaurant for a date and our expectations were certainly met.

The atmosphere of the restaurant was amazing. Low dimmed lights, music that wasn’t too loud that you can’t hear each other talk, and beautiful lay out of the dining itself. One thing I would note in improvement would be the chairs, they weren’t the most comfortable, but that is me being very picky.

All the staff were extremely lovely and very welcoming, there is not one negative thing I could say about the staff.

Now the food was some of the best food I have had in a really long time. For starters we had the focaccia with green tahini, shatta egg and crispy chickpeas. Oh my, it was lovely the flavour complimented each so well, it was a little bit spicy, perfectly acidic and had the amazing crunch element with the chickpeas.

For our mains we ordered the rice cake carbonara as well as the wagyu beef pappardelle.

The carbonara was beautiful, the rice cakes weren’t over cooked so they didn’t turn into mush when you ate them and the sauce complimented them great. They give you a smaller serve because it is quite filling and can become fairly over powering.

The pappardelle was once again amazing. The flavours worked so well together, beef was tender that it just fell apart in your mouth and the fresh pasta was like silk, couldn’t recommend this dish more!

Overall please visit this restaurant, from the atmosphere to the staff and the food it was for me;...
