This is a truly amazing restaurant and this applies all round, the service provided was impeccable particularly after my friends incident.  I am not surprised why it is one of the most highly rate and recommended restaurants.

The food served was perfect in every way, from presentation to the taste, although the portions are small they are very filling.  I had the scallops which were very tender and very full of flavor.   We thought it was interesting the combination of having chicken wings and it was so easy to separate the Chicken from the bone.

Staff were fantastic, friendly, and helpful except for one who seem to have a rod stuck up there the sun doesn’t shine.  The main waiter and manager that serviced us also made jokes and even gave us complimentry coffee at the end of the meal.

The surrounding was wonderfully decorated with pearls and crystals and with live entertainment made even more amzing

This restuarant is located next to Liberty in central London.  I like the interior with the lights and the tanks of fish.

We took advantage of a meal deal and decided to order one of everything on the menu.  For starter we had mussels in white wine and garlic sauce and squid cooked in CTFM special sauce.  I loved the sauce forthe mussels, rich and creamy,  the squid was soft and not at all chewy.

The salmon was nice very crispy with spinich placed in between the layers.  The only problem I had with the dish was slightly dry.  The ribs was delious, the meat was removed at a gentle touch it  and it was flavoured even without the sauce.  Dessert doesn’t only look good but it was light and very tasty

 Service was very attentive. making  very pleasurable, I will most definately go there again.

The restaurant is situated next to GAY bar and to be honest I didn’t really go there expecting the best mainly because you later found out it was Ken Hom who designed the menu. The restaurant is very nicely decorated and there were parts of the restaurant and everything is every well presented. The cutlery, bowls and plates were very pretty looked like a tremendous efforts went into their presentation. There are also so small tables being segmented by the use of cloths and angling of chairs. Seems interesting but it also look a little uncomfortable.

Unfortunately I thought the service was poor to average. I personally don’t really appreciate when I am ordering and the waiter is distracted.

The dishes came like little oriental tapas and we were recommend to order three dishes person. We ended up ordering eight dishes to be shared between us. When the dishes came I thought maybe I did underrate the restaurant because they do look really pretty and now I am a true believer that looks can be deceiving. I was very disappointed with food. The best dish there which is their Singapore noodles, even that was oily. Lobster and Mango summer roll was very crunchy but all you can taste was coriander. Tuna peppercorn sashimi was disgusting, it was drowned in lemon juice, Which reminded me or washing up liquid

Over all I didn’t think the food was poor but the visit was worth while due to the efforts made for everything to look so beautiful.
