My daughter and I had an early dinner here which fitted in with our schedule and allowed us to chose from the pre-theatre menu (but meant the restaurant was quite for most of our meal). All aspects of the meal were quality - and our meal of Ham and Prune Terrine followed by Sirloin steak and truffle fries was fantastic value at £40 each. Particularly loved the caramelised cauliflower which was a standout. Drinks were of course expensive but overall would recommend to anyone

Great experience on an anniversary night. We were spoiled since the beginning when we were welcomed at the door by Aiofe and Dalaho, the manager on the night. We were then served by Nimet , Jaime and sommelier Lorenzo. Atmosphere and attention to details have been the theme of the night. We felt like at home and definitely will come back. Thanks again for the wonderful night at the Saddle Room. Highly recommended for any time of occasion.
