    Food excellent. Small point serving hot ravioli starter on a stone cold plate which was disappointing. Service patchy - waited ages for our initial drinks order to be taken for example when restaurant wasn’t too busy. Overall a great little restaurant and lovely food but the service needs working on to make it a friendlier experience

    In my opinion it was a little bit expensive for what we had & the £15 service charge was very excessive. The food however was very nice & the service was excellent.

    Perhaps the best place in Macclesfield for fine dining and certainly superior to your usual bistro. The food was delicious and very reasonably priced. Small supplements for certain dishes are definitely worth it. A very nice touch of the chef to offer amuse bouche to customers and prepare you for the food to follow. The waiting staff were polite and friendly.
