    The menu was not the menu online -I had checked before I booked that it suited our budget and it did -when we got our table they gave us a different menu -which on average was €10 more expensive than advertised online plus this didn’t include sides which were around €7 each. I had planned on getting fish and chips at €22 but closest option on new menu was halibut at €34 And chips for €7 making it €41 almost double what was advertised online - I questioned the different menu but was told this was tonight’s menu ! For a new restaurant to be using a different menu already without any warning is disappointing . I had been on their instagram and was talking to them on the phone in advance and the new new menu wasn’t mentioned . We were so disappointed that we had to leave and will not be returning !

    We had a bad spot to be seated in, lacked ambiance…. friendly staff, but we waited an extremely long time for food we had to keep asking what the delay was! ( to begin with we were very patient) but an hour and a half was ridiculous!! the food came and was presented well, it was nice but tepid!! we spent a lot of money for a lack lustre evening. we ordered pornstar martini’s and had to ask more than once for the prosecco shots for them !

    When I booked the table I wasn’t made aware that it was a set menu and so limited… 3xstarters, 1x main course 3xsides and 2xdesserts for the princely sum of €120 for 2 excluding drinks!!! Robbery… we will not be back!!

    Really exciting new spot. I work nearby and look forward to visiting again! The staff were more than accommodating and helpful. The outdoor area is well heated. We were happy with our appetizers and cocktails!
