Harden's survey result
Summary
“Mouth-watering food” – “French-style with a difference” – wows almost all visitors to Jun Tanaka’s “informal fine-dining” joint in Fitzrovia. “The food is taken seriously but the atmosphere is grounded and relaxed” – “when I want a solid and thoughtful meal, I go here”. Better still, it’s “a bit of a bargain for the quality”, and there’s “huge value in the wine list for a Michelin restaurant”.
Summary
“It’s all about the food” – you could call it “casual Michelin” – at Jun Tanaka’s Fitzrovia HQ, which provides a “relaxed”, “buzzing” (and quite “romantic”) environment in which to enjoy his “innovative” and sometimes “amazing” culinary creations. Quibbles? – “it’s quite a difficult menu to get your mind around” (“we were told it was small plates but were still asked to choose separate courses each”); and “although it’s a pretty space it can feel a bit cramped”.
Summary
Jun Tanaka’s “consistently brilliant food – simple but immaculately presented, with amazing flavours” – wins rave reviews for his “shabby-chic-meets-modern-industrial” Fitzrovia yearling, also praised also for its “lovely” staff. Having said that, there is a minority who feel it has been hyped: “it was good, but after all the raves, I somehow expected more”.
Summary
Jun Tanaka’s Fitzrovia newcomer wins praise both for his “exceptional” cooking and some “exceedingly pleasant service”. Some reporters gripe that “decor is lacking” though, or feel that “tables are too small for the sharing plates format”.
