So you like to queue?
I have given this place 3 chances. 2 hits 1 miss. The most frustrating thing about this restaurant is the queue... not least, having to queue for ages just to get your name on a waiting list and then having to come back in an hour and a half. Twice we ended up having enough time to walk to Shaftesbury Avenue to see a film and come back in time to eat!
So, the food... we found the street food to be generally too greasy/oily but the mains better than average. I always order Fish a la mojo and it is always good. Have it in mind that I normally have no problems with grease. I love the pork scratchings. Strangely they weren't covered in oil and are very light. Service is always super speedy... this place is about turnover and has the feel of early Wagamama's or Cha Cha Moon perhaps.
It's a cheap eat... just not as convenient as other cheap eats perhaps. But it is Covent Garden.
