Ordering Strategy

Start with the olive oil tasting and the 'must-order' dips (specifically the Taramas) with the fermented potato flatbread. The Wild Goat is a large sharing main for the table.

What to order

Safe first

Taramas Cream

Described as 'miles away from the usual pink, whiffy mush,' this version is praised as a decadent bowl of salty, cured roe topped with a runny egg yolk for extra richness.

Hungry

Wild Goat

A 'brave and authentic' main served with trahanas (Greek porridge). Critics warn it is 'musty, earthy and truly goaty,' but salute its bold, high-game flavor.

Wildcard

Greek Yoghurt with Quince

Grace Dent labels this 'supremely elegant' dish the 'star of the show,' specifically highlighting the pairing of cardamom oil and quince.

Wildcard

Rabbit Livers

William Sitwell called these 'rich pink beauties' the 'best livers I’ve had in a while,' served simply with oil and herbs.

What to skip

Skip
OctopusReviewers have found this dish disappointing, noting it is often 'drenched in too much cream' and lacks the refinement of similar dishes at competing London restaurants.

Good to know

It is on the pricier side (upwards of £150/head with good wine). There is a central open fire which adds to the atmosphere in winter.
