   Dusty lampshade hanging above tables. Debris on the floor at start of service. Water bottles scaled up, could do with polish before use. Table for 3 was too small. Food was quite good though.

   This was only our second visit to Lussmanns for Sunday lunch and once again it did not disappoint. My husband has a slight physical disability that affects his walking, so across an uneven surface he really struggles. So we elected to use his wheelchair and lo and behold a ramp was brought out and we safely negotiated the entrance. Ken was able to sit in his chair throughout the meal.They also gave us the same table as the first time, which was great as it is just inside the door. Everyone is served with a carafe of iced water and this is replenished as necessary; in most restaurants you have to request water and specify that it should be from the tap,and not the expensive bottled water. And now to the food:- it was superb . My husband had the Chalk Stream Trout with salsa verde and crispy fried capers, which he pronounced excellent.I as a vegetarian chose the the N.African spiced “, lamb style “ mince flatbread with cottage cheese, sweet & sour onions and garden herbs. I was delighted that one of the herbs was coriander, my favourite. For dessert, my husband once again chose his favourite. Bramley Apple Crumble with ice cream: I chose the St Clements posset with ginger crumb ; both were beyond delicious; we finished with coffee and I had a small Tia Maria as well. Lussmanns take pride in being sustainable, e.g..more than 95% of their food is grown or produced in the UK to minimise their impact on the environment, and to support ethical British suppliers.A discretionary 121/2% service charge is added to the bill, 50% of which goes to the front of house staff and the other 50% to the equally important people who cook your food. All food is freshly prepared ; indeed you can actually see the cooking being done. We have decided that every Sunday from now on we shall eat at Lussmanns; it is superb in every possible way.

    My husband and I have been searching for a restaurant for Sunday lunch for some now we’ve found it. And what a wonderful experience! There is nothing that we could fault at Lussmanns,Harpenden. Every aspect of our experience there was perfect. I had not thought when I booked to alert the staff that my husband is partially disabled, in that he finds it hard work to walk any significant difference. This doesn’t usually matter as he can walk about 50 m with support from me. We have a wheelchair in the car and and we would use it as appropriate. Today our progress from car to restaurant, a very small distance, was hampered by the fact that the ground was very slippery. Anyway, we made it! And what a joy eating at Lussmans was. The service was impeccable, the staff could not have been more helpful. The food was out of this world delicious, the ambience was quiet despite the restaurant being busy……what’s not to like? As we were leaving we told the lovely man who helped Ken into his wheelchair that we would award them 125 out of 100 and that we would most certainly be back. Indeed we have now decided that we will eat there every Sunday lunchtime if possible. Very well done, Lussmanns Harpenden
