   We booked here for one evening as we saw their 7 course menu was only £55pp. We were welcomed when we walked in and picked our table. We ordered a bottle of wine and had our first course. Each course was delicious and was explained to us in detail. We felt like friends instead of customers and had so much fun with the experience as a whole. They explained each dish could vary on the day and that the owner changes them constantly just depending on his mood - which was a really interesting concept and it worked! Everything was fresh and had so much flavour - I can’t fault a single dish. We would definitely come back to try more. The Dubai chocolate crème brûlée was excellent and a great end to the experience, along with the acorn liqueur - which we had plenty of! Overall the bill came to £88 pp, including a bottle of wine, the meal and service charge. We will be back!

   That was my first time to have a dinner with no fixed menu which makes me nervous about the quality and cost of food. The food are fresh and the chef is nice to us. They made good food and the place with aura. I cannot drink wine and eat shrimps, but the other food is still nice. I like the dessert a lot. The price is not low because we didn’t drink wine and all the dishes are small portion except ravioli. But it is acceptable that we had a happy dinner there.

   After reading the reviews, I was very excited to go to La Mesa. I loved the concept and imagined the food would be a beautiful experience. The atmosphere was lovely and very cosy. The food was well cooked. However, it lacked flavour and seasoning. Some of the elements in the dishes did not really come together. The wine was average. Tipping appears to be an expectation and staff could be overheard complaining about guests that chose not to tip.

   Outstanding service and food. Accommodated us when partner restaurant had an issue with our reservation and served us the most spectacular food on a whim. Can’t recommend enough

   Wife booked this as a surprise after seeing the reviews. Cosy little restuarant but with a big personality. Very welcoming and attentive service. Chef also made the effort to check on us. The 6 course tasting meal was fantastic. We will definitely be back. One of the best meals I've had in a long time.

   Lovely meal here, slightly disconcerting not knowing the cost of the meal or wine before hand but I'm sure they'll tell you if you ask - it was £7 a glass of wine and £35 each for the meal itself for us. Service was lovely and homely. Foodwise, it was good, on our night we had rare beef and curry sauce on supermarket rice crackers, an odd but delicious combo; celeriac soup; prawn in salsa verde, mushrooms on brioche...the let downs were that the bread was cold and supermarket bought imo, the chicken main which was overdone, the parsnip accompanying it underdone (but the sauce absolutely stunning). Dessert definitely felt like an afterthought of whipped cream, caramel sauce and Sauternes but given the size of kitchen and the uncertainty of weekday covers it was always going to have to be something prepared earlier or quick on the go. Overall, great idea, definitely someone's aspirations come to life and well worth the price point.

   Amazing place. Love the concept. Wouldn't work for fussy eaters so if you are picky .. simply don't go. There is no menu, the host feeds you and it's an absolute delight. It is honest food, beautiful produce and absolutely rammed with taste. Perfect portions so you don't come away feeling uncomfortably stuffed. Five courses plus bread (which is a meal in itself and heavenly). What I really loved was the fact that there were no fancy processes, no pacojets were involved with this meal (very uncommon in good establishments these days) and it was accordingly deliciously simple. Definitely a must if you love food and you find yourself in this part of the world
