    Duck was scrumptious! The mini bread was warm and fresh! The shrimp appetizer was rich and flavorful. The servers and chefs are friendly and knowledgeable. The chefs made the best duck I’ve ever eaten!

    We had booked a table for 8pm and we were seated promptly, however after that things went seriously downhill. By 8.25 no one had come near us to even offer us as much as a glass of water. After twenty five minutes of being ignored we decided to leave. The waiting staff seemed young and inexperienced with no one directing matters. We have been to this restaurant many times before and enjoyed it. This was a most disappointing experience .

    Superb food but the portion sizes were very small considering the prices being charged. The steak was very thin, the helping of hake was very small and the risotto serving was more the size of an appetiser. The vegetable servings were minuscule. All in all, it was a real pity considering the exceptional quality of the cooking and the food.

    Hot food mostly good but lukewarm/cold served on cold plates. Desserts particularly good. Service mostly good but table cleaning on next table while we were still eating which was unnecessary as we were last eating that night.

    Superb dinner. We had crab claws for starters followed by Monkfish and scallops for the main course.

    Excellent food and service. Portions just about adequate relative to cost. Monkfish definitely overpriced for the amount served on plate. Overall a very pleasant and enjoyable culinary experience!
