    Went for dinner and sat outside. The view from outside is great & with the heaters, it was very comfortable to sit outside on a winters night. The cocktails were great. We had the antipasta for starters which I liked. Two people at our table had the Duck for dinner which was very tough, very disappointing. I ordered the Monkfish & seafood curry which was so fresh and full of flavor. My friend got the Filet and it was nice, just a little over cooked. We got sticky toffee pudding for desert that felt like it was microwaved. Our waitress Gabby was great & was so attentive and friendly. Overall the cocktails, service, view is great, the food is mediocre and could do with some improvements. Thanks, Amy.

    Overall the service was very good, however waiting times for food was a bit slower than I would have liked staff where friendly and attentive. But it is obvious that some of the staff are not very aware of their roles

    Honestly the food was great but I think they’re only able to specialise with some of their meats. I booked for my boyfriend’s birthday and I’d asked for a table by the window which they gave us which I was so grateful for. We ordered a starter which came out so quick and it was pork which was lovely but we’d arrived at 8:15pm and didn’t get our actual food until 9:30pm there was lack of service from the staff in terms of updates and checking our table. I think the waiting time really let down the whole experience. Not to mention the tiger prawn pasta was a very very big let down in portion size and the duck breast was extremely chewy. The pepper soup that came with it was lush though. Overall it was a nice dining experience but if they’d gave us frequent updates with the food and didn’t take so long it would’ve been so much better.
