You are entitled to two servings of steak with frites. The steak is very thinly sliced and would equate to maybe 6 oz. The frites were good, the bread was warm which was nice and the salad was plain, lettuce, salad dressing and one cherry tomato sliced in 1/4, not quite what I expected. The courses came out very quickly. I hadn’t didn’t finished my salad before the steak arrived. The slices of steak we had were good. The steak comes with gravy on top. We preferred it without gravy, I suggest asking for it on the side. The staff were friendly.

The service was amazing. Our waitress was timely and polite and was good with checking in on us. Food was great as well. The seating is a bit cramped but it did not take away from the over all experience. Lovely ambiance but I might be a bit biased since we were sat by a window. Overall would come here again 10/10
