The industrial-style red-brick-and-stone interior is as striking as the modern French cuisine of head-turning young chef Victor Mercier.

Choose from plates to share in the dining room, a bar stool at the open kitchen or a six-course tasting menu around a shared table (reserve in advance). Equally enticing veg, vegan and meaty bites include pumpkin in sweet hazelnut and praline vinaigrette, stuffed cabbage, and chicken in a barbecue apple sauce. Cocktail pairings by mixologist Stephen Martin are sublime.
