Ed Sheeran’s New Notting Hill Restaurant Is Not Good Says Jimi Famurewa | Eater London

"After a very long buildup by Guillaume Depoix, this freshly opened restaurant presents an inviting, comfortable dining room and a charming, attentive front-of-house, but its cooking has disappointed critics. Several small plates fall flat: Marseille-style chickpea panisses are described as feeble, a Brissaouda barely registers beneath its crab topping, and a Sasizzella di tonno introduces an unwelcome sour note to what should be a straightforward spaghetti with clams and mussels. Lunch prix fixe choices have been called punitive, and a chargrilled octopus tentacle suffers from being paired with an ill-fitting butternut squash purée. With prices judged importunate and the food failing to evoke the sunlit Riviera romance many hoped for, the project feels at odds with its long-promised reputation." - George Reynolds
