    The food was salty, but good. 3 minutes after the main service i was told that the kitchen is closed and I can’t have a piece of bread! This is scandalous ! Our table was served by 4 waiters ? Is this normal?

    We had a show to go on to, and our main course arrived only 15 mins before we had to leave. They set fixed times for how long you should have a table but service was slow. My food was luke warm but the rest of the party enjoyed theirs. I guess chicken doesn’t have to be hot, and it had plenty of flavor. Cocktails were great and it was lively and fun which rubbed off. We were given lunch brunch menus when it should have been dinner menus - it was confusing! I liked more than not - but hot food served in a reasonable amount of time, are things to improve on.

    Wonderful food but horrible service. Staff seemed overwhelmed definitely need more severs. We ordered drinks never got them and it took forever to get our receipt. I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone.

    Fantastic menu but we hsd 4 different courses and whilst 2 were fine, 2 were overcooked and overall the food felt rushed (it was very busy). To be fair to the venue though, like typical english we didnt complain and give them a chance to rectify. Overall its a beautiful restaurant, with a great vibe and happy staff/customers, we will definitely be back

    I made a reservation, it was very busy and they were very accommodating when I arrived early. Very good service and food. I had the chicken roast which was excellent although the beef were cooked a little more well done than I prefer. That is the only negative thing I can say about my visit. Would highly recommend and I would go there again.
