    The food was exceptional and the ambience was great. The staff were welcoming and courteous, though there was a considerable wait before we could order our food. Despite the delay, the food arrived promptly and it was a great restaurant to dine at.

    Very poor service - was very slow and we had to call a waiter to order, etc. No checking on us at all. Waiters seemed to be standing around and not doing any work

    Came for my 24th birthday and had such an amazing time ! Food was so delicious especially the bang bang broccoli! 10/10 from all of us. Wasn’t too spicy nor sickly. Would just come back for those tbh😍 The live entertainment was supposed to be a Dj but I believe he was running late. But they also had a magician coming round to tables. ABSOLUTELY AMAZING , truly magical! Made us forget about the DJ. We were very dressed up and noticed many people wearing tracksuits and more looked like they just came from a run lol. So I’d say dresss code is more casual than dressy. It would be nice if more people dressed up nicer as it’s such a beautifully designed restaurant, which makes you totally forget you’re in collier row at all. Overall we had such a great time and it very glad I chose this place for my birthday dinner :)

    On the website it states that you cannot bring children after 6pm. I also called the verify the information. When I got there is 10 kids running around and sitting with their families. When I confronted the manager she said she acknowledged that the website said this but they allow children. I had to arrange children for Father’s Day weekend due to the restaurant being incompetent and deceitful.

    We had a fantastic experience. Staff were welcoming,friendly, attentive and serviceable. Food was delicious and adequate amount provided which we appreciated. That said we felt slightly hurried to place our food order. We arrived on time for our 2:30pm booking but no sooner had we settled in than we were informed the kitchen would close at 3:00pm therefore they required us to place our orders before then.They however reiterated the bar would remain open till late.

    The waitress serving us was lovely, pleasant and very helpful. Food was good . My only One issue was one item was a bit too salty for my preference, but my husband enjoyed it. Everyone has their individual tastes. We have been a few times now, and will definitely be returning a few more times.

    2 main points that I didn’t like about the restaurant 1. We got delivered the starters and the main course all together at the same time. I feel if a restaurant is going to do that they should tell you. 2. The plates were stone cold which made the food go cold quicker. The food was ok and the service was ok. The place is beautiful and the ambience is lively but these 2 points really lets the restaurant down.
