    Dined on Oct 11, 2024
    The food was really nice, plenty to chose from, very well prepared, lovely plated and came out reasonably quickly. Definitely would come again solely based on how good the food was. Massive let down was the arrival, it was my husband’s birthday. I booked it via their website-redirected to severooms, each time had a designated area -indoor, terrace, bar counter so obviously booked inside as it’s middle of October 8pm. Few days before booking I got text that I need to confirm coming, so I clicked the link and confirmed, then got another text that I have to confirm reciting them so I did- again confirmed then I also got email from open table for confirmation so I clicked it to confirm , which itself is not that much of hassle but when we arrived staff didn’t have table for us, so they sat us at the bar (we are completely happy to wait for a bit) they then say they will soon be table outside for us, so I m saying we booked for inside, it’s like 12 degrees outside neither of us one of those northern people who brave winter weather in shorts so I say we don’t mind waiting longer and for now can just get a drink, bar staff then brings us menu saying we should eat at the bar as there will unlikely be a table, staff carrying plates keep knocking into my husband as he set on the curve of the bar close to the screen they’re using so it’s not very comfortable sitting, it’s not much space on counter and we don’t have a space for coats-definitely not a birthday dinner vibe. Staff keeps urging us to order food but I insist that we ve booked the table about two weeks ago, confirmed 3 times and then we order drink and wait. Really rude staff upstairs and at the bar. My husband even suggested we leave - which obviously isn’t what one wants for treating someone on their birthday. Later they came and took us downstairs where thank god the staff was nice and polite. One lady even got us a drink on house later as a birthday treat, she was nice and the food too
