It was all better than expected. The food was particularly good and the service was attentive. It was very feasible to have a good meal and be well on time for the evening event.

I found the menu quite difficult as much of appeared to be spicy. However I chose a starter plate of Babaghanoush with walnuts and pomegranate which was very tasty. The service left a lot to be desired as there seemed to be only two waitresses who did not keep their eyes on the diners and it was difficult to attract attention. Considering the tables were only sparsely filled this let down our enjoyment of the restaurant.

A wonderful, local kosher amenity. The staff are particularly delightful! It’s a joy to be able to eat meat out and the lamb was great!!! Starters were delicious! Can’t wait for our next visit! Thank you.

The service was friendly, food was plentiful though starters over-generous. Chick pea curry became boring as the rice didn't provide a contrast and much more spinach or other green veg would have made a better balance.

The food was fabulous, a real knockout & I’d say the value was excellent compared to other establishments of a similar standard. The venue/ambiance let’s it down a little, but I’d go back for the food without question
