Incredible food and wonderful service, the staff could not have been more helpful in their guidance and advice for my gluten allergy. Would thoroughly recommend to all but particularly those who need reassurance with food preparation safety for allergens and/or Coeliacs. Thank you so much a delightful experience xx💚

There were a lot of small flies in the restaurant. The prawns in the paella were not fresh and mushy.

Overall food was very good, service could have been more attentive as took a while to ask for drink orders and forgot wine. However overall the chefs I could not fault all food was great and would go back for the food and tapas meals available.

Excellent food and fantastic staff. They had a power cut while we were there but the young lady who was serving us took it in her stride and continued with a smile. The produce is of a high quality and the drinks selection has something for all, fab sangria.

Wasn’t cheap, overall food was ok but could have been much better for the price, slow staff service…. Bill had a service charge which really wasn’t worth £6 tip…. Unfortunately we probably won’t go back :(
