History and operations

The restaurant opened 1 November 2007, led by Marcus Eaves with the backing of established restaurateur David Moore of sister restaurant, Pied à Terre and pop-up restaurant Pieds Nus.

When Eaves moved across to take the head-chef role at Pied à Terre, Andy McFadden took over. McFadden continued to impress diners and critics and he landed the head-chef position in the Pied à Terre kitchen in November 2015. His successor was Graham Long, who was welcomed back after his previous experience in the Pied à Terre kitchen working under Shane Osborn.

The main restaurant seated 53 with an additional 12 seats on the terrace. A private dining room seated up to 16 people. Its total capacity was 81 people. There was also outdoor seating available for diners.

It featured prints by Richard Hamilton, Henry Moore, Gordon House and William Crozier[disambiguation needed], as well as a pencil drawing by Henri Matisse. Handcrafted tables were made by Toby Davis of Hunky Dory Designs and were a mix of Macassar Ebony, with placemats cut into the table-tops.

In January 2009, the restaurant was awarded its first star by the Michelin Guide.[1]

The restaurant closed on 9 September 2017.[2]
