I really want to try the Fish & Chips so I will definitely be back!
The heartier dishes make Cheek Bistro stand out as a brunch spot. The Fish and Chips ($34) while not typically brunch food, has been raved about.
I wouldn't mind trying the restaurant after everything re-opens, but someone else is going to have to pay, as it's not cheap.
I enjoy the fine casual vibes and it is great if you do not like the typical format and constraints of fine dining.
Cheek Bistro is still as good - as long as you decide to be a little less conventional.
I'm not sure how to describe the feeling I had for this dessert. I like the peanuts and the pomelo.
The food is bereft of finesse and confidence of a mature chef. The dishes we had that day were rather uneven; some good, some middling, and one terrible.
I suspect Cheek By Jowl is one of those restaurants that diners can get divided on. That you would either get excited about for its odd, somewhat creative pairing; or feel some dishes might need more fine-tuning in terms of balance.
All in all a very good thing and hopefully it means we’ll see these guys around for a lot longer.
Service was flawless, I observed a maximum of three staff doing table service, and the restaurant was almost full (35 covers).
