Jasper Gerard - 8/10

Tuesday, February 03, 2009 - I try that great peasant dish, Sardinia's version of bouillabaisse. This fish stew wraps you in winter comfort with manly chunks of monkfish cheeks, cod, baby cuttlefish, mussels and razor clams that have simmered in thick overripe tomato sauce infused with basil, chives and dill. My guest's swordfish with spiced aubergine and pesto on a bed of tomato and mushrooms is a work of art to rival the Hirst. If it were not so deliciously moist you might be tempted to have a game.

World Foodie Guide - 7/10

Tuesday, July 28, 2009 - St. Alban is great for those who have an abundance of money to spend in restaurants and don't mind that they're being served good, but not very exciting, food in return. It's not particularly noisy, so you can have a conversation with your fellow diners without needing to raise your voice, and the service is efficient. I was, however, disappointed that 50 per person, without alcohol, only bought me a good, but not superb or even excellent, meal and won't be returning again unless someone else pays the bill.

Sunday, September 28, 2008 - I rarely take advantage of lunch menus at normally-expensive restaurants, because if I motivate to try out a pricey restaurant, I want to have the “full” multi-hours-long, appetizer-to-coffee experience. I figure you can’t really judge a place on a special lunch menu. Of course, you should never say never, and twice now, I’ve enjoyed the £15.50 weekend lunch at St. Alban, a Mediterranean-inspired place near Piccadilly Circus.
