    I loved the mood of the place with its candlelit cosy interior, somehow both quiet and lively at the same time. I found the dishes not only delicious but also very unique - like the fried pink firs or the brown butter cake. The staff was also helpful and friendly. Really recommend!

    Delicious food and great service, ordered 2 large, 2 medium and three small plates between two of use which I’d way was about right (if not a little too much) and shared a pudding. Highlights were the Portland crab, the cod, the sausage rage and the blood organs set cream.
