Good food and excellent service. First visit and would go back. Varied menu with good options. We ordered just after they took and order from a table of nine but the food arrived within a reasonable time. Good atmosphere as well

Excellent as always. One of my favourite places to eat. The pork belly starter and oriental beef is my go to. I always have these and decide on the day which will be as a main course, which the restaurant is kind enough to do 🤪

We were greeted and seated straight away. They wished me a happy birthday and were quick with service of drinks and food - all was delicious! We then went to the Eden room after dinner for some private drinks. All in all a lovely night for my birthday.

Ate here Saturday with family and my daughters friend after a nice meal we got the bill left the money in the leather wallet with a substantial tip , to then be chased down the stairs and have 2 male members of staff knocking my car window accusing us of leaving without paying , maybe in future they check the table first instead of jumping to conclusions and Judging people , it was an embarrassing experience for my children and my daughters friend to witness will never return and certainly won’t recommend this place

Starter was over cooked with gone off lettuce leaves. Mains ‘steak and pork loin’ was tasteless and green veg was raw. Dessert okay. We were asked if everything was okay and we said‘not really’ the waiter said nothing collected the plates and never came back. The table was by the main door that was constantly being opened by the staff to take food up stairs which left our table in a constantly cold environment. Not good……..We used to enjoy LaLuna as they used to have quality food and staff…..it’s gone down hill and they need to up their game
