Prospero - Table reservation

WOW what a gem, nestled in a less than salubrious area in the centre of Stratford. The welcome, service and food was genuinely exceptional. Katy and her staff are attentive and friendly hosts. I had duck, which was cooked well (I mean still pink), and the tastiest dish I have had in a restaurant for years. We were advised that the food would take a while as it was cooked from scratch (and we could tell it was), and were offered free nibbles while we waited. My friends had lamb and sea bream, which they thoroughly enjoyed. Its a real shame for Prospero that they had full bookings but a lot of people didn't bother turning up or cancelling. This restaurant deserves to be up there in the top res...

We waited 45 minutes for our starters and ended up having to send one back (twice! so in the end, we were there for 1 hour 30 minutes and my partner had not eaten anything! We were then told our mains would be another 10 minutes so we left. Seemed to be similar experiences across most tables. Staff we very apologetic and did not charge us for the starters or drinks but all in all, a very poor experience. Went to Veeno around the corner instead where we were given great service and food!! Won't be returning unfortunately.

Had an amazing meal with my partner on Saturday evening. The main courses were divine with us sampling the duck and the pork. By far the best main courses we have had for a long time. Really glad we chose to dine here.

We were the only people in the restaurant but still waited 30 mins. for our starters and another 30 mins for mains. Too slow and too expensive.
