Tue - Sat 5pm to midnight
The last time we visited Gotham a few months back, it was by invitation.
Time to pay another visit as 'paying customers' to see if we are still suitably impressed.
We still really love the space. Dark & intimate, perfect for catching up with friends over a cocktail or vino and a few shared plates.
Starting our evening with:
The Brooklyn |
The Big Apple |
Following on from this we have:
Stuffed Green Olives (crumbed & deep fried) |
The Olives are plump & juicy, but we are a little surprised by the stuffing. We are expecting something along the lines of feta, but they seem to be stuffed with something 'meaty'...we find this less appealing.
Fried zucchini flowers with parmesan & lemon |
Pan fried olive and parmesan sandwich |
Is anyone noticing a pattern here? I am noticing the words "deep fried' and "parmesan" cropping up a lot. We didn't really think it through.
The sandwich is as good as we remember & probably my favourite of the night.
Crisp Chicken Wings with lime mayonaise |
Pissaladiere |
Perhaps we have been spoilt, but Janette of The Larder fame makes a mean Pissaladiere. It contains generous amounts of caramelised onion, olive & anchovy. Unfortunately, the Gotham version fails to deliver on all counts. This is not to say it isn't tasty, but it isn't Pissaladiere as we have come to know & love it.
Warm Madeleine with sauternes |
Service this evening was once again friendly and relaxed.
So, we have to say that even as paying customers we are still very impressed with Gotham & hope it will around for many years to come.

Love the chicken wings here as a snack.
Overly generous servings sizes are such a rarity... :)
Looks great!
