The food was great but this was let down by the hesitant service we were told to sit where we liked but no table wax actually set properly . This made the initial impression not great however the food was amazing. You just need to concentrate on customer service and creating an ambience . Although we had booked it was like we weren’t expected weird considering how quiet it was. Get the customer service right and you will do well because the food was delicious

The food was great. We arrived at an odd time, a bit after 4 PM, but the kitchen was open. It’s a quiet, hidden spot.

The food was really good and filling, we took a doggie bag as we couldn’t finish. Our waiter was a young man who was just lovely, couldn’t have done enough and made us feel special and valued. I hope he gets recognised. Will go back!
