    Absolutely wonderful from the moment we arrived. Staff were very attentive & friendly & food was fabulous. We all enjoyed the two course lunch special and everything was delicious, so many amazing flavours. Can’t wait to try the new menu lunch specials.

    Underwhelming and overpriced. Service and cocktails were decent, don’t even bother with the food.

    Unfortunately we did not have a good experience. I had made a booking so they knew we were coming. We were seated and asked if we would like water. We said yes, no water came. We had to ask for it again. One of our menus was taken before we even ordered. Once we ordered we waited over 45min for our food. I had to get up and ask how much longer it was going to be, 5 min later our food arrived. . Not once did we have anyone come and ask if we needed anything or how our meal was. I had to walk up to the waiting staff and ask for another drink. This didn’t arrive until after I paid the bill. I noticed the owner sitting in the restaurant and thought I would give him feed back on our experience, he didn’t really seem to care, only to say they were really busy with walk ins. Don’t think I will be going back or recommending this restaurant to any of my friends

    The restaurant itself looks great. Ambient lighting, good music not playing too loud, and lovely staff. The went on to impress us even more. We had the corn ribs and the duck croquettes for starters then miso pumpkin and the wagyu ribs for the mains along with polenta chips and seasoned greens for the sides. All the food was delicious! 10/10

    The service and ambience were great. However, two of our four meals were served cold and the fish in the main meal was very rubbery and overcooked, almost inedible. For the prices charged, the quality of food was extremely underwhelming. We were not offered a discount for the port quality food.
