    The seabream chargrilled was perfect and the oily fish is one of our highlight for the meal. The lamb cutlet was great too. A repeat visit is a must for this place.

    We had a fabulous meal. Food was delicious and waiter gave great advice as to what to eat. I highly recommend it. And they told us they’d overcharged us and we hadn’t checked. Very honest too! Can’t wait to go back.

    Some of the food was a bit cold when it came to us, and starters not super or particularly generous (5 sticks of crudite with the roe). Fish was fabulous! Great service again!! Any comments were brilliantly received and acted upon, so super grateful for that. Would love to return again... and again! ;)
