    This was my first experience at a Lussmanns restaurant and Lussmanns Hertford was a lovely experience. The manager was able to kindly reseat us, as I wanted to sit further into the restaurant. The food was delicious. I had the Cornish cod and market vegetables and apple crumble with a rather nice dessert wine to finish. Our waiter was very professional and provided a great service. I will definitely be back, there are so many things on the menu I would love to try.

    Really good quality lemon sole and the koffmann fries very tasty too. However, nearly £70 for 2 people without wine is a tad steep to make Ember a "must go back soon" kinda place. For a special occasion though it has a lot to offer.

    First time at the restaurant and we really enjoyed the food, service and ambience. We were not rushed and my husband had a birthday and the staff came out with a candle and sang Happy Birthday. Will definitely go back!
