    Delighted we had a booking as it was Dec 22nd so the restaurant was packed with diners. Greeted by a very friendly lady who immediately showed us to our table. Plenty of space between each table so a really enjoyable and comfortable experience. The menu has a great choice of dishes with the allergens clearly indicated. The food is amazing, fresh and flavoursome. One of our party hadn't eaten in Saba previously. He was really impressed and thought the food was incredible. Visited the toilets which were spotless. 5 stars for Saba. A great restaurant to suit all be it a family event, business meeting, date night, solo dining or catch up with friends. You will not be disappointed.

    My friend and I visited your restaurant on a busy Saturday night on the run up to Christmas. To say it was fabulous is understating it! We were greeted warmly and invited to make a choice on a table. Following our decision, we were promptly attended to by a wonderful waitress for some drinks. We enjoyed a signature cocktail, which was smokin! Literally!! Such a fab entry point to our experience. We enjoyed prawns/sea bass/beef and duck with some white wine which was so tasty! We ended with the perfect sized deserts! All in all, a thoroughly enjoyable evening, a great start to our Christmas festivities! Thank you

    The service was excellent. I had made a late booking and got the last table (very near the coats and door) but as soon as a better table became available, we were offered a move! The food was pretty good, though it is on the expensive side. The ambiance was good despite our initial placement- would definitely recommend this restaurant for groups or dates!

    Saba always has great food. And the staff and service are always top. However, prices a bit too steep for Thai food and potions you get
