Harden's says
In Kings Road, Pontcanna, this former pop-up is a debut restaurant from Newport-born chef Tom Waters, back in Wales after stints in top kitchens including the Fat Duck, The Square and Bryn Williams’s Odette’s. He promises new twists on prime Welsh ingredients.
Harden's survey result
Summary
“Well worth its recent star” – that’s the early intel on this May 2024 newcomer from Newport-born chef Tom Waters, which earned its stripes just eight months after it opened. Occupying a small casual space in Pontcanna, he offers a variety of fixed menus (four-courses for £60 per person, seven for £95, and ten for £125). We’ve accounted in the rating for one report that described “no wow factor”, but most accounts deem it “exceptional in all respects”.
For 35 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
