This popular Chiswick restaurant is definitely worthy of its good name!
I had a fantastic dinner here last night. Even on a Monday it was buzzing and seemingly necessary to book a table. We were seated at the sharing table but we didn't mind at all.
The decor is minimalist but warm and inviting. At night it has a lovely, intimate ambiance.
Service is friendly if a little sparse.
The menu has a nice range of options, from butternut squash curry to burgers to risotto.
I opted for the beetroot barley risotto with parmesan, horse radish creme fraiche and basil. It was beautifully flavoured- the delicate beetroot flavour paired perfectly with the sharper parmesan and fresh basil. The portion was generous.
My friend chose the house burger which was also tasty, but nothing too special. I liked the look of the halloumi and zucchini burger- so I think I'll give that a try next time!
I'd recommend this trendy spot for a few drinks and maybe a few of the "small plate" options which looked very promising.
Chiswick has recently welcomed a beautiful restaurant called 197 Chiswick Firestation. To my satisfaction (no offence), they’ve replaced the old All Bar One on Chiswick High Street. As soon as I heard about the new opening I had to visit because it definitely brings out a different side to Chiswick. Most bars and restaurants in the area are usually quite cosy and old fashioned, pub style. The interior of Chiswick Forestation is spot on, very chic and reminds me somewhat of Chiltern Firehouse. My sister and I visited on a very nice and sunny day so we chose to sit in the beautiful outdoor terrace which can fit big groups as well.
Visited with family for a birthday celebration, first the service was really good and accommodating. We had a 4 month old and they gave us a quieter location so we can leave the pram and also be away from everything. Food wise it was very average for the price, the shrimp burger was nice and fries were good. Croqottues i was not a fan and Calarami I've had better. Overall I think the Brunch Menu would have been better and that's what I would probably go for, but service and decor was nice.
