The service and food was excellent and our server Ibrahim was very attentive and helpful. The Manger also came round to check on us and when we told her we were missing a side she got us three to fix the problem. I have no hesitation on giving the 5 star rating, we were treated like Kings and Queens throughout our dining experience.

We came to celebrate my partners birthday for the second year in a row and we had such a great experience. We enjoyed ourselves even more than last year and I’m not sure how that was possible. The food was absolutely amazing and the service was impeccable! Our waitress was so kind and made great recommendations and was super knowledgeable. Despite there being birthday’s on almost every table around us the staff still made an effort to celebrate my partner as well and sung happy birthday even with just the two of us. We came away will full bellies and hearts. Thank you so much for making my partners birthday so special!!!

Repeat customers once again very satisfied with our experience. Our group of 6 sat at one of the high tables outside (a little quieter here). Excellent service; water glasses topped up regularly; empty plates cleared in a considerate amount of time; delicious food with plenty of options for GF dining. Will be back again. Many thanks
