Harden's survey result
Summary
This seafood specialist in Chelsea’s King’s Road gives a coastal Peruvian treatment to supplies from Cornish fishermen, with crudo and ceviche as warm-ups to dishes like half a Galician Octopus or Miso Black Cod. It’s a spinoff from Pachamama in Marylebone (see also) and is likewise rated as “very enjoyable” in most (if not quite all) reports.
Summary
“I keep coming back for all the ceviches” at this “excellent Peruvian seafood specialist” on the King’s Road in Chelsea – an offshoot from Pachamama in Marylebone. The atmosphere is lively, too, although some reckon the music is just “too loud”.
Summary
“Super-fresh fish”, “inventive, well-cooked seafood dishes with a Peruvian slant” and a “great atmosphere” (boosted by “the best pisco sours”) are the key ingredients of this King’s Road “crowd-pleaser” – the younger stablemate of Pachamama in Marylebone – which can be “so warm you think you are somewhere tropical”. Any gripes? – “just wish they’d turn the music down!”
Summary
“Bursting with fresh, clean flavours”, the “amazing” seafood at this “buzzy” King’s Road outfit has converted many to the delights of ceviche and other “delicious” Peruvian specialities in recent years. It is an offshoot of Pachamama in Marylebone.
