    We decided on the degustation menu & are so glad we did, every course was absolutely fabulous. We paired with the wines, which were exceptional. The service was outstanding, all staff were friendly & attentive, we will definitely be back!

    We did the five course menu for Valentine’s Day but on the Saturday. The food was amazing. Each course was something completely different. The staff were very attentive and knowledgeable. Highly recommend for dinner, just be prepared to be a bit full, so don’t plan a night of dancing after!

    Came in for lunch. Absolutely loved the food we were presented and loved the atmosphere we were surrounded in. The cocktails were delicious and the staff were very friendly. Only negative would be that we ordered the 5 course degustation menu, waited over an hour for the first course to come out and by 2.5 hours we had to leave without the 5th course (dessert).

    Hello, l chose the duck and it wasn't cooked through so raw in part, if this is the intend meal, l would like to have know that. We had almost eaten our meal when someone came by to ask how everything was. I responded good, what else do you say . The meal was ordinary and yes as a customer you have an expectation and that wasn't meet. The menu didn't grab us, it doesn't describe what your actually getting so it's a real surprise when it arrives, then wondering what everything is, not a fan

    This restaurant was outstanding. My husband is a very good cook and we very rarely eat out but I would recommend this to anyone who wants to try different with excellence. Very good value for money for the standard of cuisine. I absolutely loved it.
