Are These London Restaurants Worth The Hype?

"The Verdict: Occasionally delicious, full of buzz, but it leaves you feeling a little meh. Mountain is Brat’s big Soho sibling and getting into this two-floored, Spanish-cum-Welsh, 100-cover behemoth is difficult because it was born into the world as The Place To Be—and normies and hot Irish normal people know it. Some of the food and open-fire cooking is very good, and sitting at the counter upstairs or down with some grilled langoustines and funky wine is the move. But anything bigger than that feels too busy, or tastes too familiar, to be truly special." - sinead cranna, rianne shlebak, jake missing, heidi lauth beasley
