They WON'T take reservations so you have to wait in line, that said a wait can be 30 minutes long, but the food is worth it. Real bistro and unpretentious. Gruel on Dame Street is great.

Went to town for a mate's birthday on Saturday and fluked a table in Captain America's at 9.30. Someone who had booked the table was late so they let us have it. Very true.
