    Came in on the final service of 2024 for my dad’s birthday with my family. From the outset we were very well looked after by the knowledgable and charming Jacob. A model example of how to come across friendly and attentive without being at all overbearing. The food was absolutely sensational and despite my mother having a shellfish allergy, every care was taken to ensure her dining experience was not impeded. Truly exceptional food, a good wine list and very clever cooking going on in the kitchen. Couldn’t recommend higher and I wish Tom and the whole team all the success in the world for this venture.

    The best kind of organised chaos, staff are rushing around placing new dishes on your table constantly. The feel of the place is lovely, quite intimate and romantic. Food is amazing, so fresh tasting and they will replace things like the chips and bread for hot fresh plates. Fish is spectacular. The seafood special is the way to go. No faults really, only marked ever so slightly down because, the toilet is not very nice but no real problems just cold and damp, and overall the place is cold, and the door is left open so it basically feels like your outside but its alright and didn't really bother me but if you go this time of year be warned to wear a nice jumper for when you take your coat off. But I would 100% recommend to anyone looking to book! arrive on time for the best tables so you don't have to share!!
