    Really nice meal and very quick and friendly service. As a vegetarian my choices can be somewhat limited but very good choice and food was beautiful. Highly recommended.

    Staff were friendly and helpful. Decor quite dated, and tables v close together. A mix up with the order meant a delay to one dish, but they took it off the bill without being asked. Food portions were of a reasonable size, but just not amazing food.

    The food was excellent. The service was very good with the exception of a small mistake, which caused one of the entries to arrive late. I would definitely return.
