   Well, where to start? This was our third Sunday lunch at Lussmanns, Harpenden and it just keeps on getting better! There were 4 of us celebrating a very recent enjoyable event, and we had a really excellent experience.The duck confit, the lamb shank,the fishcake with poached egg and the celeriac steak were all totally delicious , as were our desserts; two of us had the pineapple carpaccio, shile my husband again chose his favourite, apple crumble and our other friend chose the sticky date pudding. Rounding off this delightful repast with their superb coffee just punt the icing on the care, if I may mix my metaphors. Well done again, Lussmanns: we look forward to having all future Sunday lunches with you.

   Dusty lampshade hanging above tables. Debris on the floor at start of service. Water bottles scaled up, could do with polish before use. Table for 3 was too small. Food was quite good though.

   This was only our second visit to Lussmanns for Sunday lunch and once again it did not disappoint. My husband has a slight physical disability that affects his walking, so across an uneven surface he really struggles. So we elected to use his wheelchair and lo and behold a ramp was brought out and we safely negotiated the entrance. Ken was able to sit in his chair throughout the meal.They also gave us the same table as the first time, which was great as it is just inside the door. Everyone is served with a carafe of iced water and this is replenished as necessary; in most restaurants you have to request water and specify that it should be from the tap,and not the expensive bottled water. And now to the food:- it was superb . My husband had the Chalk Stream Trout with salsa verde and crispy fried capers, which he pronounced excellent.I as a vegetarian chose the the N.African spiced “, lamb style “ mince flatbread with cottage cheese, sweet & sour onions and garden herbs. I was delighted that one of the herbs was coriander, my favourite. For dessert, my husband once again chose his favourite. Bramley Apple Crumble with ice cream: I chose the St Clements posset with ginger crumb ; both were beyond delicious; we finished with coffee and I had a small Tia Maria as well. Lussmanns take pride in being sustainable, e.g..more than 95% of their food is grown or produced in the UK to minimise their impact on the environment, and to support ethical British suppliers.A discretionary 121/2% service charge is added to the bill, 50% of which goes to the front of house staff and the other 50% to the equally important people who cook your food. All food is freshly prepared ; indeed you can actually see the cooking being done. We have decided that every Sunday from now on we shall eat at Lussmanns; it is superb in every possible way.

   As always good food and good service. Second time of eating this week - surprisingly it was quite quiet at lunchtime.
