    Warm welcome from the staff. As a free starter everyone gets a glass of lemon water, olives and garlic bread. Servings are fast. Portion size is good. Staff asked frequently, but not to much, if there everything is still good and if anything is needed.

    The service was wonderful and the owner kept a keen eye on his staff to make sure everything kept running smoothly. The food was delicious and portions were big!

    Very good prices for top quality food. One item we ordered was forgotten, but we were fed so well we didn’t have room for it anyway and they graciously removed it from the bill. We thought the food and drink selection was very good as well, with kind waiters.

    Excellent, long established Italian/Mediterranean style food venue. Very attentive service, and you want for nothing… An Excellent pre-theatre venue.

    Great location, very reasonably priced, staff helpful, friendly and unobtrusive. Wide selection on menu and food tasty and excellent value for money in central London. We have visited many times during last 20 years and have never been disappointed.

    The service was non existent, rude and surly. Food was awfully, a totally disappointing experience. The attitude of the staff was get you in and out as quick as possible and to be honest the 40 minutes we were in to there was far too long. Places like this should not be as allowed to operate.

    Been before. Very reasonably priced and a nice ambiance but the lamb Shish is always over cooked and rather tough.

    The food was tasty and the right amount, not a lot, not a little; just the right amount, However, bit disappointing as we book with 40% discount through the app but the discount only applies to a few food choices in the menu.

    we had a friendly arrival to this small restaurant in the middle of Soho. It's only the burgers that have 40% off but we chose instead to have the three courses for under £20.Bit confusing as would have liked to have been able to choose from some of the other dishes if they had been priced up separately Food tasty would go back again service charge added

    Shockingly bad - the vine leaves were inedible, the food was very cheap and not fresh and really disappointing even with 40% off.

    We stopped off for a bite to eat at Bistro 1 before an evening at the theatre. I would highly recommend. The service and food was excellent with a good variety on the menu. Staff were friendly and attentive.
