I’ve visited this restaurant in its various incarnations over the years and I’m delighted to report it was as good as I’ve known it. The welcome and service were friendly and efficient, and the ambiance was much improved. My wife singled out the evening’s specials as particularly good. While Billericay boasts many eateries on its high street this will definitely become a regular if the standard remains high.
