Southwark Restaurant offers a unique dining experience with a seasonal menu that consistently impresses. The restaurant is known for its exceptional service, with friendly and knowledgeable staff providing attentive and professional care. The menu features a variety of delicious dishes, including the popular duck breast, rye toast with rhubarb and honey, potato soup, veal ravioli, pickled lamb and bacon toast, and more. Diners can enjoy fresh and flavorful food from appetizers to desserts, with highlights such as the lamb tartare, red beet carpaccio, and the 26oz bone-in ribeye. The environment is inviting and calming, creating a warm and comfortable atmosphere for guests.
The bar serves excellent cocktails, with the "shadow boxer" standing out. Customers have praised the perfectly crisp duck fat and tasty baby turnips, though some found the kale aranchini and beet puree to be a bit salty. A nice touch is starting the meal with a good tasting small soup, which sets a warm tone for the dinner. Service is generally good, with staff being knowledgeable and friendly, though a few found it slightly overbearing. Desserts are interesting and unique, adding a fun surprise to the meal. The restaurant is not particularly kid-friendly, but offers a lovely overall experience with great ambiance and delicious food, making it a hidden gem in the city.
