Harden's survey result
Summary
This “perfect neighbourhood restaurant that consistently cooks to a really high standard” occupies an attractive glass-fronted site opposite Herne Hill station, and goes from strength to strength under founder, hairdressing salon entrepreneur Katya Milavic-Davies and exec chef Lasse Petersen, who began his professional life as the drummer in post-punk band The Rakes.
Summary
This classy venue opposite Herne Hill station is a “favourite local” – there’s a “superb buzz” about the place (although for some reporters that translates as “a heavy decibel level”) thanks to its “consistently good”, contemporary cuisine and “charming service”. An “interesting and reasonably priced wine list” seals the deal.
Summary
This “high-level local bistro” opposite Herne Hill station is “great for date night”, and its kitchen team is “very accomplished at composing dishes that bring together familiar ingredients in unfamiliar combinations to good effect, rather than for curiosity value”. The latest addition is a wine bar and shop next door, called Lulu’s.
Summary
A “local favourite” opposite Herne Hill station for its “hearty and tasty European bistro food”, “this restaurant goes from strength to strength. The cooking is inventive without being gimmicky and skilled without being over the top”. It’s “a lovely place”, but “the room is strangely laid out”, with a “cramped interior and hard surfaces, so it gets noisy” (“or you could say buzzy”).
