    Inexperienced servers for a “fine dining” restaurant. Didn’t feel like fine dining whatsoever. Table left without any touch by the waitress.

    The food was very good and the service was exceptional … value for money is the only question but worth it for the service level and the quality of the food …

    We enjoyed the Early Bird menu. The food was delicious and we appreciated the complimentary extras such as the delicious speciality breads, little soup taster and petit fours. The service was friendly and efficient. Our desert, the baked cheesecake and caramel ice-cream was to die for. Looking forward to our next visit.

    Service tonight was very friendly but generally slow and inattentive. This is an expensive restaurant that has deteriorated in our view, real shame but we don't think we'll be back.
