Had a Sunday roast in the butchers grill - was expecting great things given it had just won some awards in Europe and was very disappointed. While the food was tasty and the roast beef was all seasoned the food was cold. We ordered drinks and it took about 20 minutes for the cocktails to come. Unsure if that’s why our roast was cold. The cocktails were nice. The restaurant was full and there was only two staff members on service which wasn’t fair. No one checked in on us once we had received our food. Overall very disappointed given we’d heard such good things about this place.

We had the day’s special T-bone steak, it was a bit pricey but excellent, even outstanding! Good-sized sides were very good too (broccoli and mash). A small and cozy restaurant in a nice neighbourhood.
