Tender frog's legs cooked in an aromatic garlic butter. The restaurant encourages you to eat with your hands and provides a finger bowl — a traditional French approach. Reviewers describe them as tasty and buttery, embodying the bistro's no-fuss authenticity.
Tips from diners
Use your hands — it's meant to be casual. The finger bowl is there for you.
A rustic, family-style dish meant for sharing. The rabbit is cooked until tender, finished in a mustardy tarragon sauce that's noted by reviewers as 'particularly accomplished'. This is the kind of dish that connects you to Bosi's grandmother's table.
Tips from diners
This is meant for sharing — order with bread to soak up the mustardy tarragon sauce. Perfect for two or three people.
A warming classic — sweet caramelised onions in deep beef stock, topped with toasted bread and melted Gruyère. It's comfort at its most elemental, the kind of dish that defined bistro cooking.
Tips from diners
Multiple reviewers call this the best version in London — the onions are properly caramelised and the broth deeply flavoured.
A beautiful-looking classic French preparation — delicate puff pastry encasing a creamy chicken and mushroom filling. It's the kind of refined bistro dish that requires precision in both pastry work and sauce balance.
Tips from diners
Eat this while the pastry is still warm and crisp — the puff pastry shell loses its texture as it cools.
A refined take on the classic French bistro preparation. Tender sweetbreads are paired with the musky earthiness of morels in a delicate cream sauce — it's luxury bistro cooking.
Tips from diners
The sweetbreads are crispy outside and tender inside — soak up the buttery morel sauce with bread. Hardens calls this dish superb.
