    Drinks, service and atmosphere 5 star. The best. Dinner was so heavy. The Brussels sprouts were swimming in sauce and mushy. The cauliflower delicious but also sitting in a lot of sauce. The lamb was fatty and the fish cooked in far too much oil. It only taste like oil and the sauce couldn’t improve it. Left feeling sick to our stomachs. Disappointing.

    Food and drinks were good, not great. Disappointed that the sourdough with chocolate dessert was removed. Our server seemed angry with us, no idea why but didn't make for a great experience.
