Cole KennedyApril 27, 2018This is the sort of spot that makes you wish you lived around the corner. I loved the lamb ragù pappardelle, and simply trust whatever the staff suggests for wine.
Emily HymesJune 1, 2018Staff is knowledgeable on wine. The food is amazing. Can get a bunch of dishes and share. I had the pork tagliatelle and mike had the pigeon for our mains.
MaríaJune 20, 2016Second time here. I take back my previous tip - this time the service was excellent and the turbot was light and delightful.
AlexFebruary 18, 2017This was one of the best dining experiences I've had in London over 20 years living here. The restaurant is cosy, food is superb and the staff are super friendly and helpful. I'll definitely be back!
Alexandros PlexidasMarch 2, 2017What should pointed out mostly is the cozy and laid back ambiance of this place and the good service. Great list of wines. The fish and pasta we tried were all delicious and fresh.
Aja BrandmanNovember 16, 2019Great ambiance and food - the sardines (save some bread for this) and pumpkin were great starter dishes, the duck main and potato ravioli main were also v good. Large wine list as well
Emilie WNovember 24, 2016One of my favourite London restaurants, we recently went for a girls dinner, food was 10/10, staff are 10/10. Try the tiramisu for desert - I'm not even a desert person... it's the bomb.- Angela LiuFebruary 23, 2020Cosy neighbourhood restaurant serving a daily changing menu. We had the ragu pappardelle and pigeon and both were amazing
- N BOctober 18, 2015Excellent wine list that focuses mainly on natural wines. The terrines and pates are the standout food dishes. Very good overall.
Nova DandoJanuary 1, 2019I LOVE THIS RESTAURANT - great food, great staff with fantastic knowledge of wine of their extensive wine list. Call and book ahead as this place is popular
@ambarsurastriMarch 21, 2013Ended at this lovely place one day, although I don't eat pork haha Very reassuring that the menu had other delicious stuff. Order different dishes and wine to share w/your company xo @ambarsurastri
Kim PhamNovember 2, 2016Perfect little date night restaurant on Columbia Rd. Order 4-5 dishes for two and you're all set ❤️
BivitriDecember 3, 2016Tiramisu (pictured) was very good. Food & panacota were just ok. They made us wait for 20min for our table even though we had a reservation. Very nice waiter, though
Tobias OtteDecember 7, 2014Love this place. Start with cheese and wine and continue with anything on the menu. Ask for recommendations, the service is excellent.
Phil HJanuary 17, 2016My go to spot when showing visitors how amazing London food is. Never disappoints.- BivitriDecember 3, 2016The quail (pictured) was ok. The appetizer w/ eel was very good. Service was excellent but this place is a long drive from downtown & it didn't live up to the expectations
Organic wines, wonderful dishes to share and great people working - it’s alway a great time.
Daren WilliamsSeptember 17, 2016Nice neighborhood restaurant with a high quality menu that changes regularly to keep it interesting.
Anna SzypkowskaSeptember 12, 2019Everything was amazing! The quality of food and combination of flavours was truly outstanding!
Metro.co.ukJanuary 12, 2011Earnest in the East End: Brawn has a fast-changing menu and is relaxed and cool, but it is not worth travelling the length of the city for. We gave it 3/5 stars. Read more
Frank BanisiJanuary 7, 2018Incredible food, wine, service, desert (etc. etc. etc). Everything was fantastic.
Brad GerickJuly 23, 2018Great place for a date. Every plate was delicious. Relaxed but classy atmosphere.
Richard GregoryFebruary 4, 2011Recommended: Check out the slow cooked column of the menu - venison ragù w/ pappardelle, wild rabbit w/ chard & pearl barley broth, and tête de veau, all of which are available for under twelve quid Read more
Adrienne SFebruary 4, 2012Great French British food, the cauliflower gratin was amazing. Pâté and gesier salad also standouts. Worth the trek! (3 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more
Heather RodriguezOctober 1, 2016I thought the food was solid & if you take your time, you can find a good wine for value. The service isn't that great unfortunately.
Alex LopMarch 7, 2018Excellent food, knowledgeable wait staff, delightful wine list. The burrata was exquisite.
Polly WnzAugust 14, 2014Super restaurant. Worth coming back on a Tuesday for a nice tartare bargain, too.
DermottJune 5, 2011Good for a lazy Sunday lunch after a morning on the flower market, great service and good wine - you have to book though!
Amy WFebruary 12, 2011Wonderful service with great food and wine. Advise you reserve a table and preferably at the front of the building. Dining here is highly recommended.
Trust me on this one, this restaurant is great. Food is awesome, service is good, and prices are quite friendly!- MaríaDecember 13, 2014The foie gras is amazing, however I am a bit disappointed overall: the cod was really bland and it took ages to get the food.

"RIP the best Friday night in London. The Birdcage is now a Draft House pub and with it has gone the karaoke, locals and fun."
Uslan - 8.2
"My local and therefore my favourite. Always a bit too crowded but lovely, especially on calmer weekday evenings. Nice terrace at the back and good food selection, too."
Omer Cavusoglu - 8.9
"Daily (!) wine menu curated by London wine god Michael Sager-Wilde, who also crafts lists for other local spots like Happiness Forgets. The grilled cheese here is legendary."
