I have been trying to get in for ages and I finally managed it. It was most definitely worth the wait. What he can do with cauliflower puree or basil ice cream defies description and then there is the risotto, it is simply the best. All the staff are highly competent, very helpful and friendly, even Mr. Ramsay himself ask how the food was, my reply was rather incoherent, what do you say when confronted with a god and your mouth has just been full of the best things it ever had ! Do anything to get in, sell your grandmother, its worth it.
