Last week just before the big day, a group of friends and I went out to Reis Grill and Bar in Ruislip for our festive get-together and secret Santa gift-giving. This was my first visit to Reis Grill and Bar, although my friends had been before. We each ordered from the festive menu and ordered cocktails. First of all, I love the ambience of the restaurant. It has a 1920s art deco speakeasy feeling with mirrored chandeliers, velvet seating, blossoms, and marble.
First, we ordered cocktails - passionfruit martinis and their signature cocktails which are served under a dome of dry ice. When the glass dome is lifted, the alcohol is revealed.
The festive menu was a three-course one. I had the spinach and cheese parcels to start, although the halloumi also sounded good.
I also tried different cocktails.
I ordered the vegetarian main dish. Once all the mains were brought out, dry ice was put in the middle of the table for the fog effect.
I had the pistachio dessert, and I had a frozen strawberry margarita.
Overall, we had a great time at Reis Grill and Bar in Ruislip, and we headed on to have some more drinks, but I was tired as my job has been very busy and had an early night.
