"I want a restaurant to have a higher aspiration than to replace what we’re not getting at home. I don’t want them just to be kitchen mistresses with better crackling." READ REVIEW

"...I had almost as much regret for the meal not eaten, the path not chosen, as I had joy in eating what I did. And that is what The End of the Affair, you see, and really most of Graham Greene, and life in general, is all about." READ REVIEW

"The night we visit there are some stellar choices: a properly made risotto, rich with silky shreds of wild boar and fragrant with new season’s garlic; baby squid stuffed with that Mallorcan smoky and spreadable chorizo, sobrasada – like a play on tapas classic, stuffed piquillo peppers, with the ingredients reversed."

"My haunch of venison was a thing of beauty, four hefty tranches of deer perfectly cooked, lividly purple in the middle. Truffle mash was pureed to silkenness – and a lump of cooked quince (uh-oh) was sensibly confined to the side of the dish." READ REVIEW

"On the evidence of our visit, though, the wines far outshine the food. The bread, focaccia, was decent enough, but the starter du jour we’d opted for was simply a disaster." READ REVIEW
"This Soho newcomer, from a team with the good pedigree of the Wapping Project, is more than convincing. It is, to finally answer my tweeter's question – I refused to be drawn ahead of this review – a bit of a diamond." READ REVIEW
"The wait is worth it on the basis of what I have enjoyed there. The basics are very good, from the bread Emirali bakes every morning to a bowl of celeriac and apple soup and grilled sardines with a salsa verde." READ REVIEW
"We liked the smoked eel starter, served with a slightly sweet horseradish sauce and beetroot; and carved Gressingham duck breast was correctly pink and tender, served with pancetta." READ REVIEW

"Of the duck meat with its self-basting layer of fat (my friend) said, "This is delicious", repeated "delicious" and then a bit later on enquired, "Did I mention that this is delicious?" I was too busy with my char-grilled Brecon leg of lamb with sprouting broccoli and anchovy to pay much attention." READ REVIEW

"It might be pitching itself against big boys like Arbutus just around the corner but thanks to good food and excellent wine, 10 Greek Street certainly has enough about it to succeed." READ REVIEW
