    We felt rushed from the moment we arrived unfortunately. Our steaks which weren’t great arrived so quickly they must have been precooked. I would have thought that they would always be cooked to order.

    No surprises here. Service was better than average. Caesar salad was a bit uninspired but everything else, especially the spinach artichoke starter was above expectation.
