Reviews
We started with the grilled Nocellara olives with Calabrian butter alongside smoked nuts, pretzels, seeds and crackers, a brilliant opener, rich and savoury yet light enough to set the tone.
The middle courses were outstanding. The violet artichokes with tomato and peanut sauce and green harissa were vibrant and full of depth. The barbecued tomato with crispy polenta and sundried XO packed in layers of flavour. The smoked pork belly with pickled watermelon salad and mission crab butter was a real highlight, smoky, tender pork with the freshness of the salad balancing it beautifully. And the sourdough focaccia with smoked garlic oil was not only delicious on its own, but perfect for mopping up that incredible mission crab butter.
The main course of landrace pork chop with miso mustard sauce was cooked to perfection, juicy, smoky and flame grilled with just the right balance of richness. The sides completed the dish perfectly: French fries with black garlic amino butter were indulgent and packed with umami, while the baby gem salad with smoked garlic Caesar, parmesan and crouton was fresh yet bold.
Dessert was a knockout. The whipped Basque cheesecake with Sichuan strawberry and pretzel crunch was light, creamy and full of flavour, with just the right amount of texture from the crunch.
Portions throughout were generous, this really is a “feast” menu, not a tiny tasting menu. Every dish felt complete and satisfying, with the progression from start to finish flowing beautifully.
Overall, the balance of flavours, the smoky flame grilled cooking, and the generosity of the portions made this one of the best tasting menus I have had. For £49 per person, it is outstanding value. Bank is a must visit, the flavours, the cooking, and the attention to detail make it unforgettable.
Experienced the shared starters followed by shared 500g sirlion Hereford steak with fries and salad. Terrific.
Deserts were e excellent and finished off the evening perfectly.
Was let down by the speed of service. My drink took a while to arrive. We also got given the dessert menu and waited 30 mins but noone took out order so we skipped dessert. The staff were working very hard and were so friendly. I honestly felt like there was too much for them and there should have been an extra staff member. The staff are not to blame.
Atmosphere was fine just cramped and noisy but not sure how they can be helped.
