The restaurant is comfortably arranged and decorated, with plenty of space between tables. The service began grandly enough with much pulling out of chairs, shaking of napkins and flourishing of silver domes. The restaurant closes at ten pm, and as the witching hour approached we began to feel that we were beginning to outstay our welcome. The wine waiter was helpful and didn't go off us when we ordered the house wine, a very decent Australian for a very reasonable tenner a bottle. La Roche is a serious restaurant that appears to be trying hard in all departments.
Prices are quite high, the same as a good London restaurant.
Restaurant going in the capital is entertainment, some say theatre even, though I think that's going a bit far. At La Roche they could perhaps loosen up a bit.
