service entertaining as always, these people are not like your regular stuck up restaurant staff so take it with a bit of salt and enjoy the experience. you don’t find places like this around london often with the unique atmosphere and simple but rare concept 🙏🏽

Great fun rock bar, my go to after a show. Menu of 100 shots is great concept. Garlic beer, try it once, it's super garlicky! Food is OK and fair price overall for Soho.Gothic basement with skeleton waiter and satanic cave is fun if you're only drinking

I used to love this place. The bar downstairs appears to have had lots of seating closed off. Now feels cramped and grim. The restaurant used to be great but certainly isn't anymore. Latest visit will likely be my last. Service was awful. Food was overpriced and low quality. Not even that garlicky anymore! 12.5% service charge was added to our bill without notice. The waitress was more focused on talking to her mate behind the bar rather than attending to customers. Also very chilly in there. Didn't add to the evening...I've been going here on and off for 20 years. Sad that I'm unlikely to ever bother again.

Extremely fun place! Amazing music and great fun deco with interesting quotes:) a long list of shots! My favourites were the fly me to the moon and the king of Denmark. The garlic chocolate ice cream is delicious! Great potatoes and garlic and super friendly atmosphere

The only good thing is the music. The place isn't nice and cozy. Didn't stay there for long. Have drink couple bottles of bear and ordered chicken wings. From the first moment didn't like it as they were half cold-half hot. From the fridge to microvawe. Taste was killed with the huge amount of spicy sauce. Today me and my wife are sick. And this is not result of alcohol. This is result of the chicken wings. That taste still comes from the stomach which is not working...nothing more to say...

Had a great night last night celebrating a late friends birthday by hiring out the basement. Plenty drinks to choose from! But my main shout out is to the bar tender who was our tender for the night. I had a panic attack during the night and he was very supportive and even showed me an area I could go to if things got too much. Thank you so much for that, it meant a lot

I don't think I've ever been to a place that serves this many shots! If I remember right there was over 150 different ones and all unique in their own way! Very enjoyable indeed and I also tried garlic ice cream for the first time and I must say that I was pleasantly surprised!

Best bar in London in my opinion. Small, loud, and some of the best shots I've ever had. Staff are always on it, super friendly with excellent service. Music is great - be warned if you head downstairs to the crypt it is almost always the heaviest metal being played (which I love), so might not be for some. Go here!

Dipping plate hand fried nachos with cheese dip, snakebite salsa and guacamole £6.95 - about two tea spoons of each so ran out of dips half way through so dry and hard nachos - worst I’ve had. Garlic bread wasn’t very flavoursome despite the name.Really apathetic staff, rude and lead by Tina the manager whose attitude was awful so there’s a culture that clearly feeds off her.Alex said pay another £1.50 per dip... that’s fair enough if there was a reasonable amount given to start with - so her response was “what do you want me to do about it!” - perhaps hospitality is not the right industry for these people.

I was so excited to try this place, been on my list of places to go when I visit london for a while now. I couldn't find a menu online but a photo I did find showed an extensive menu with many vegetarian options. On arrival we were given a very short menu and decided on just sharing a few starters instead of a meal as planned. The food was extremely garlicky which was great but just a lack of options for mains that we expected. Really enjoyed the garlic beer though. Raw garlic floating it there and I may have to now try this at home. Staff were very nice and friendly though, could not fault them
