    The service was fantastic, attentive and friendly, and the food was stunning. We had filet steak and half a lobster which was absolutely delicious, the best peppercorn sauce! Really good wine list and my son adored the warm chocolate cake, and the 2 special passion fruit mojito mocktails. Highly recommend this restaurant - such high quality.

    I planned to tip the staff with cash. The service charge was added automatically. I also felt rushed with ordering.

    Weird to be quite frank, service was lovely but quite disappointed with the mains as I opted for the Chateaubriand which obviously costs a fair bit but the steak came cold and very chewy. Others steaks which were the rib eyes and fillets also came cold. The starters and drinks however were lovely. Was expecting a lot more in all honesty.

    Food was fine but not as good as previous visits. The steak was a bit gristly but well cooked. Lobster was fine but not amazing. Waitress was not especially friendly. Overall it was nice but we've had better experiences at Brettingtons. Hopefully just a one off as this is one of our favourite places to eat in Rochester.

    The food is lovely, tasty and hot, which was nice. The service was good. I just feel a 12.5% service charge for a table of 6 was a bit much.

    Amazing steak, cooked to perfection. Our lovely waiter recommended the white chocolate and raspberry cheesecake for pudding and it was the best cheesecake we've ever had.
