We had a great experience. The hostess was friendly and service was excellent. The halibut special was extremely good. The only downside was the shrimp - they were overdone with the linguini. Overall, very good and we will be back.

We absolutely adore this restaurant. We took my mom here last year for her birthday and decided to go there for Father’s Day this year. The service is great, but the food is the true star. Everything from the scotch egg to the pea soup to the wonderful options for Sunday roast dinner and the icing on the cake with dessert. Our favorite is the strawberry meringue. It is decadent and delicious. Do not miss this amazing restaurant… It is at the top of our list and we can’t wait to go again.
