RS Lounge

Fantastic day and night view. Amazing design - definitely non UK image. I am from USA and I show just a few places like this in Europe. My girlfriend recommended day time places and I prefer night life, so we feel there so right.

Its just Day & Night Paradise. Top guards entrance gate so very safe by night party!!! Delicious food and very professional bar staff. One small scratch is not always crystal clean tables:(

Definitely we be back soon...

We visited RS Lounge for Sunday lunch with our three year old son. Prior to arriving we were feeling quite apprehensive as it is generally regarded as a drinking/dancing spot for young 20-something Ibiza types. Although it was a bit scary and awkward walking through the glossy bar area with the lit dancefloor once we were seated outside in the attractive decked area we instantly felt more at ease. Many of the soft drinks come in pitchers for around £6 each which proved economical and saved us from having to constantly reorder. We were encouraged to try the Sunday barbie but no info was available as to what was on offer or how much it cost so we stuck to the menu, as planned with starter-sized dishes for around a fiver and mains for a tenner roughly speaking. We were not expecting the food to arrive quickly given that it was the 'morning after a heavy night before' which tends to be a given in these types of establishment. Infact we ended up waiting for almost an hour. However, it was WELL worth it. Four huge platters arrived bursting with Pacific Rim-meets-nouvelle cuisine goodies, true works of art boasting unique flavour combinations and fresh ingredients. This level of cooking would put most London bars and restaurants to shame. The chef had even done fancy things to carrots and beetroots with a mandolin and the potatoes...will I ever have such amazing potatoes elsewhere?? My partner's favourites were the chilli paneer sticks with dips and tender aubergine enrobed in a tempura style batter accompanied by a quartet of fresh dips. My son loved the melt-in-the-mouth marinated salmon and it became apparent that we could have ordered two rather than four dishes and still come away satisfied. It is such a shame that there were no other takers. This place offers food that is on a completely different level to the Village pubs yet nobody seems to know anything about it since it opened in June 2008. Times are rough and it should publicise itself more effectively rather than relying on word of mouth to get customers in through the door. Perhaps they could be persuaded to invest in a highchair to appear more friendly towards families(even a hankerchief one will do if they want to keep it out of the sight of their chilled-out evening clientele!)
