This New Notting Hill restaurant - on the old site of La Sophia, on Goldborne Road - focuses on meat and fish cooked over the coals in their Bertha charcoal oven.
The menu could include dishes ranging from char-grilled Cornish squid served with chorizo and sherry vinegar dressing to charred sardines with mojo verde, seared scallops with sweetcorn and smoked bacon, and venison haunch steak served with bone marrow, watercress and capers. Desserts may include cheeseboards, rice pudding and a chocolate ganache served here with peanut butter cookies, smoked salt and olive oil.
The drinks list features artisan wines and a selection of craft ales from a range of UK breweries.
