Our first visit here thanks to my husband receiving a gift voucher.
The waitress gave spot on advice on how many dishes to order between us. Everything we chose had amazing flavours was was cooked to perfection.
Service was great too.
Would highly recommend this restaurant and will definitely be back
A really innovative set up - on the border between your Michelin star, 10 course tasting meals, and a regular 3 course meal. Amazing food. Go in, order a good 4 or 5 meals to share, and enjoy!
Ox and Finch has been making a name for itself ever since it opened. Food is served tapas style, so it's worthwhile visiting with someone who likes to share. Dishes come out when they are ready but we seemed to get a new one just as we were finishing our current plate, which worked really well.
We were very greedy and got 6 plates between us. We had rabbit terrine, paired with pear, and was moist and tasty. We then had chipolata sausages which were gloriously coated in honey, rosemary and grain mustard. I could have eaten these forever and licked the remaining honey mixture from the bowl! Seriously good. We then went onto squid, prawn, chorizo and morcilla with smoked paprika on sourdough. All was cooked well, with the squid avoiding becoming chewy. The sourdough was delicious and almost had a fried texture. The prawns and chorizo were equally yummy.
Probably the best dish came up next. Game sausage with potato gnocchi, pumpkin and chilli was imply sublime. Full of flavour and moreish. The gnocchi in particular were of an incredible standard. The game sausage was crumbled across the dish which kept it lighter than it may have been. Whilst I wouldn't often go for pumpkin, this was excellent. Moving on we then had roast Ayrshire parsnips with Ramsay bacon. The purée was the highlight of this plate, being surprisingly sweet and complemented the bacon beautifully. Finally, we had turkey, bacon and cranberry meatballs with red cabbage, bread sauce and a chestnut crumble. We'd really chosen this for our love of bread sauce but sadly I could barely fit anything else in. What I did manage was nice.
Sadly as we'd overstuffed ourselves we weren't able to try some of the delicious sounding desserts such as lemon and earl grey baked Alaska. Maybe next time, because there will be a next time.....and another.
