I’ve come here twice now! Both times for my birthday(with a twist), Tattu is such a beautiful place to visit aesthetically pleasing in every way. The receptionist Cally was so lovely. We booked the wrong seating area and requested a different area instead to which we were told was also fine. Our waiter Beth/Bethan was absolutely amazing, she guided us through the menu, was so down to earth and made us feel so comfortable. She was definitely the superstar of the night as we saw her speeding around serving a group of about 30 people as well as balancing out looking after my table. Unfortunately for me I had come in with such an awful migraine i wasn’t able to enjoy the experience as much, anyone with migraines would know that they distort your taste, make you feel nauseas upon eating anything at all and just completely ruin your day. Beth/ Bethan was so amazing, constantly refilling the water which I was absolutely dying for the whole evening so it was so great that she was super attentive to our table, she checked up on us and made sure everything was okay, I cannot be grateful enough for her amazing service honestly. When I was feeling better the next day we made the decision to come back again and properly enjoy our experience at tattu as there was a lot that we missed out on, and I know that I would have enjoyed all that I had eaten the night before. We once again saw Cally at reception who was equally as friendly. She always seems so busy but manages to be so accommodating and welcoming still which is so lovely! We were then served by the wonderful Edwin for the night - one thing to note about tattu is that the service is just outstanding - he too looked after us and made sure we were well accommodated to. He had great knowledge of the menu and was willing to recommend good foods for us if we were unsure. He constantly checked up on the table - but not in a way that was too much - to make sure we were all okay (once again in a crazy busy restaurant) it was just such an amazing experience. The food was as fantastic as I was expecting it to be. Being migraine free was heavenly, the food quality was spectacular I enjoyed every single thing that I ate. The presentation was beautiful I was just in awe of everything. Edwin heard that we had come back literally the next day due to not being able to fully enjoy the experience the night prior and was so kind to gift a small dessert with a sparkler that said “happy birthday, attempt 2” it was so nice and made me so happy I just had a great experience overall. I wish I could have gotten some more names as there was another gentleman who delivered us the desserts each time who was also very friendly and remembered us from the night before and then there was another lady with Cally that took us to our table on the first night. Overall we had just the most fantastic experience and we would recommend tattu to anyone. The service was immaculate and we definitely hope to come back again!

I had the pleasure of dining at Tattu recently, and it was an absolutely delightful experience from start to finish. The restaurant's ambiance was chic and had a low light intimate vibe, setting the perfect tone for the evening. The décoré with cherry blossom tree coming up through the middle of the venue was a really pleasant touch. Our waiter, Ross, was an absolute gem. He greeted us with a warm smile and was incredibly attentive throughout the meal. Ross had an extensive knowledge of the menu and was more than happy to offer recommendations, which we greatly appreciated. His professionalism and friendly demeanor added to the overall enjoyment of our dining experience. As for the food at Tattu, we went for the modern tasting menu. it was a culinary journey that left our taste buds dancing with delight. Each dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavors. From the inventive starters to the mouthwatering main courses, every bite was a testament to the chef's skill and creativity. I must also mention the cocktail selection, which was equally impressive. The mixology at Tattu is top-notch. The wine list is impressive and they have a good selection to choose from In summary, Tattu is a restaurant that not only delivers outstanding cuisine but also provides exceptional service, thanks to Ross and the entire staff. It's an experience I won't soon forget, and I look forward to returning to Tattu for another memorable dining evening.

My average rating is 3 stars of 5 because service was not perfect. However I can't complain about food. It was really nice food, however I had same quality and quantity of the food for three times cheaper price. My girlfriend expected to find more vegetarian options but she didn't complain about food, we both left full and happy. I would rate service lower than the food. First of all we had a reservation but had to wait for the table around 10 minutes which was not exciting but was not terrible. But then we were seated at the worst table of all available probably. Not to even mention that table was too small even for two but it was on the corner and it was really busy corner, people were passing me every couple seconds and some of them were even touching my shoulder or elbow when I was eating. Even waitress did that once too. I am just glad that I was sitting on that side and not my girlfriend. Because it wasn't comfortable. They had some nice private tables where no one is passing through but they said they don't do reservations specifically for those tables, only seating people there first once those tables are free. Other thing was that they offered us water while we wait for food, asked if we would like still or sparkling and we asked for sparkling. Waiter brought water, poured in our glasses and left bottle on the table. We tried it and noticed it is still water. We told to waitress that we asked for sparkling but got still water. They apologised and brought one more bottle whic was sparkling water this time. However both waters were on the bill. It was not much of course but for me it is a principle thing to not pay for that what I haven't asked. I have asked them how come they not removing it from the bill once they were told that they mixed them up. They apologised and removed it from the bill. I expected to hear different music in there. It was playing something like club dance music and it was a bit too loud for me. However we enjoyed cozy interior and lights and we don't regret going there. But next time we are definitely will be trying some new place.

If I'm being honest, I've had better Chinese takeaways. The restaurant is aesthetically lovely, beautiful design. It was clear a lot of people were there just for a photoshoot though. The music was overbearingly loud and felt more like club music than being in a restaurant. Myself and my friend were having to almost shout at eachother. Service was excellent, similar to that at the Ivy. However the food, was extremely lackluster. We got the £74 per person option on the menu. Very small sharing portions that genuinely just tasted like an ok Chinese takeaway meal. The flavours were good, it was presented nicely but not worth the cost at all. I never leave restaurants hungry, I only weigh 45kg, but I left hungry. The desert was not my cup of tea either, gooey marshmallow with a brownie base wrapped in white chocolate. It sounds nice but I found it a bit sickening paired with the rest of the food. It was also a really small desert, I thought they were bringing out a second one but it was just the one little thing between us. One thing that kinda irritated me was we were offered some prawn crackers before our food came out. Thought this was a complimentary thing given the meal price, they whacked on £11 to the bill for I swear to god, it must've been 5 prawn crackers each with a thimble of dip. They were homemade, and a bit too hard, probably the worst prawn crackers I've ever had if I'm being truly honest. I've had better prawn crackers from back alley Chinese restaurants that give you a massive bag of em for free. Honestly, it's a shame about the food because it's a beautiful restaurant. Maybe it was just the option we selected, but even still I wouldn't have paid more than £30 for it let alone £74 + drinks + appetizer which came to around £100 each total. If the food was better and they changed their music and turned it down, I'd probably give 5 star. It's got excellent service too, the food just wasn't the vibe.

Me and my fiancé came to Tattu on New Years Eve for dinner. There was a set menu for £80 per person. The starters arrived which were very nice especially the sticky beef short ribs. Personally we weren’t keen on the Dim Sum basket. We were sat on a sharing table but it was very pleasant, the couple next to us had arrived at the same time so our starters were served at the same time, they then got their mains and we sat waiting... 30-40 minutes went by and we had not been checked on so I caught one of the waiters and asked where our main courses were. 10 minutes later another waiter came and explained there had been a mix up and out food would be out as soon as possible, he then offered us both a complementary drink which was very thoughtful. While we waited we were entertained by the Tattu magician who was AMAZING!! WOW so so good!! Another 10-15 minutes and our food arrived, it looked delicious however EVERYTHING was stone cold!! Don’t get me wrong the flavours of the food was great but we waited over 1 hour for our mains and they were COLD!! Really not good enough from a restaurant with such high standard. We mentioned this to our waiter and they apologise but we didn’t want more free drinks!! After the mains the deserts came which were okay but by that point we were over it!! Over all the atmosphere was great and the food flavours were good but I will never return or recommend.

Booked this place for 5 of us with one person being vegan and another having an egg allergy. We were welcomed and sat in the restaurant upstairs which is beautifully designed. The online booking system is easy (even if you change table numbers) and they will reconfirm with you on an email as well as a text. The waiter (I think Nav) came over to introduce himself and he brought over his allergy book so we could see which dishes were egg free and when he was serving food, he made it clear what was vegan and what contained egg - great knowledge and that he went out of his way to double check before serving it to us on the table. The presentation of food is beautiful and it is designed to share (starters and mains) or you can have the mains to yourself. But we felt some of the dishes were delicious but others not so much. The drinks menu serves a good range of wines, beers, cocktails and soft drinks. I really enjoyed the loose lily flower and jasmine tea as well as the small cups they have. This restaurant is also on your higher scale and more luxury style. Also, there is a lack of onstreet parking so I parked at the nearby NCP and it’s literally round the corner from this place. Overall, it was a good experience.
