    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.

    The steak was absolutely delicious, and the waiter was incredibly nice and friendly. While we waited for our steak to be cooked from medium to medium-well, they kindly offered us complimentary fries, which was a lovely gesture. The ambiance was great, and the food was outstanding. Even the toilets were clean and smelled fresh, which added to the positive experience. Everything was perfect. I have no complaints and will definitely visit again!
