   The Positives We attended the soft launch of the bottomless seafood brunch. The food was incredible. An amazing variety of cold seafood, salads, meats and cheeses and then pizzas and pastas, and finally desserts. Very tasty and self-service buffet so you can have as much as you would like. The price was good for the soft launch and also still reasonable at full price. Also the live music was delightful - a very talented singer was present when we were there. The Negatives There was no non-alcoholic alternative for the glass of Prosecco, which is very strange. Staff were completely dismissive when asked about this at the start, and almost rude. One of our party does not drink alcohol. Also, we were never given a drinks menu. We ordered a bottle of sparkling water at the start of the meal that never came. After 1 hour we finally asked someone else for a bottle of tap water. The guest that didn’t drink then had to walk to the bar to ask for a drink and then back to the table and then collect it from the bar after seeing it sat there waiting on the bar. Very strange for a restaurant of this calibre to completely forget about guests need to drink during a meal. We did have also have to ask for plates to be cleared throughout the meal. Overall we enjoyed our experience but very surprised with the service, or lack thereof.

   Terrible service and waited over an hour for our food. Only the most expensive wine was available. Unfriendly and rude staff. Food average. Won't be returning.

   Lovely restaurant in a great location Service was great we were welcomed and the atmosphere was lovely Food - Steak had been change to veal i which was a shame and the website had not been updated. I know it’s a fish restaurant but one in our party looking forward to the steak and didn’t like fish. I had the deep fried i couldn’t taste the prawns because of the batter which was so much Bruchette was lovely One in the party ordered the salmon which we asked for a salad and chips with. The salad came after the mains and the chips were shop brought when you pay £6 i expected home cooked/cut Everything else was lovely service great and the house wine was excellent

    We went for a pre theatre meal and expected it to be busy with plenty of buzz. But it was very quiet. My friend had the red mullet pasta which was ok, however my seafood risotto was not good I even had to spit out one item as it was uncooked and the rice wasn’t very well cooked either but that might be personal taste. Unfortunately, I felt ill for the next couple of hours which put a dampener on the evening. A very disappointing experience.

    Thank you for your feedback, and we're very sorry to hear about your recent visit. We regret that the seafood risotto did not meet expectations and that you felt unwell afterward — this is deeply concerning and not the experience we aim to provide. We've shared your comments with our kitchen team to investigate further. We understand how disappointing this must have been, especially before a theatre outing, and we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused.
