    The service was friendly and efficient. But the food was mediocre. The “Bernaise” sauce didn’t have even the slightest hint of traragon and the lamb rack “red wine jus” was tasteless and watery. The asparagus was more suited to going into a wood chipper than being served on a plate! Spinach was not at all eatable….. Music was inappropriate for an up market restaurant. Overall, bordering one star. We won’;t be back, sorry……
