I'm not denying this restaurant appears to sell good food but I felt compelled to write a negative review after just witnessing some disgusting treatment of the chef from the owner. In the few minutes I was in there the owner felt it was entirely appropriate to shout across the restaurant to the chef where he called him a thief, untrustworthy, useless and that he was a waste of space.
Here's a bit of free advice for the owner: Without your staff, your business would not exist. Perhaps you should learn some manners? And if you really dislike an employee so much, I suggest it would be better to discipline him in a professional way, and if necessary, terminate his employment.

So if you order two different fishcakes they call deliveroo to get a message across to you that they only make it one way. Unnecessary fuss. But worse, they have a list of fish on Deliveroo under the "grilled fish" section but they dont grill most of them. Second attempt to order 2 grilled fish resulted in more phone calls via a call centre in Manila telling me they couldnt make the order as they dont grill goujons ... which are on the online menu. Phoning them is chaotic and the online menu...
