Restaurant Michael Nadra

Went to Michael Nadra for a saturday lunch.

The place is really beautiful and well laid out with attention to detail.The bathrooms are spotless and with quality soaps etc.

The waistaff are friendly and welcoming especially the Md'H and the american waitress.

The food is excellent.An attractive menu,beautifully executed at reasonable prices.The winelist is well thought out with reasonable mark-ups.

We ordered from the prix fixe menu.Chicken livers-plump and perfectly cooked on a bed of greens for her.A veloute of leek with fried whitebait on some tossed greens for me(served on an oblong plate that kept the items separate).

For mains-a delicious chicken breast with mousseline potatoes for her and fried whitebait with home made tartare sauce and peas and broad beans for me.The fish was beautifully timed and in a very light coating,not really a batter thank God!The peas and broad beans were nice and crunchy and an excellent accompaniment.For dessert ,the pain perdu with yogurt ice cream-yummmy.

High quality bread and butter,and a German riesling on a warm Saturday went very well with everything.

This is an excellent restaurant,manned by people who care about what they do,and setting a very high standard .

Go and try it you won't be disappointed.

Fish Hook has always been my first choice among Chiswick's local restaurants and my birthday meal last week was fantastic. Attentive staff, excellent fresh fish and a beautifully gooey chocolate fondant with a birthday candle to finish. Highly recommended!

Haven't been to Fish Hook for a long time and was quite disappointed on last night's visit.

The starter of tiger prawns with garlic and chilli was very bland, not much garlic or chilli in sight, and although the market fish green curry I ordered for main was nice it was luke warm when it arrived.

I was a party of 3 girls and got the distinct impression that if you weren't in a couple, you weren't at the top of their list. Service was slow although the couples either side of us were attended to quickly. And although the manager was polite and helpful, I found the waiting staff to be surly and dismissive.

Overall disappointing, and I won't be going again any time soon.

Living local to Fish Hook has been a real treat this last year or so and the standard of the food just gets better each time.

With the introduction of the new tasting menu you get every opportunity to try different styles and flavours, all fresh and imaginative. Whilst their specialty naturally is fish (the sea bass and the grey mullet are fantastic) even their meat dishes such as the belly pork really are some of the best Ive eaten.

Would highly recommend this place, the service is always welcoming and the atmosphere always comfortable.

I took my fish loving boyfriend here for his birthday on Friday night. The Service was good from the get go, the candle lit table was romantic and the food was beautiful, I’m not a biggest fish lover but I have to say I really enjoyed the fish soup and the scallops. I would definitely go back for a special occasion.
