Always go here for lunch meetings but only gave 4 for food as the grilled squid we ordered was not entirely cooked as there were portions that were very rubbery

Lovely meal with my partner, awesome service and I love that we weren’t rushed and were able to have three courses and time to enjoy them. Restaurant was busy and slightly noisier than was comfortable but other than that it was perfect. Monkfish main was cooked to perfection and I had the best Lychee Martini I’ve ever had! Superbly mixed. Service was attentive without being instrusive. This was our second visit and we will be back again.

Came in on the final service of 2024 for my dad’s birthday with my family. From the outset we were very well looked after by the knowledgable and charming Jacob. A model example of how to come across friendly and attentive without being at all overbearing. The food was absolutely sensational and despite my mother having a shellfish allergy, every care was taken to ensure her dining experience was not impeded. Truly exceptional food, a good wine list and very clever cooking going on in the kitchen. Couldn’t recommend higher and I wish Tom and the whole team all the success in the world for this venture.
