My wife and I shared the 6 and 9 course tasting menus. The food - every course - was absolutely divine. Sometimes 1-2 of the courses are not so good, but in this case all courses were excellent and we devoured every morsel of the food. Wine list was also good value, and we specifically wanted to comment on the service which was polite, attentive to a level of detail that we felt well far beyond what is normally expected. Massively impressed by this and we will be back - my wife remarked that if we lived closer we would be there all the time. Simply wonderful
