    Our party this time included a vegan guest. It was great to have the menu clearly labelled with vegan options and a lovely surprise to find that the house wine was also vegan friendly. It’s clear to see that this restaurant caters for everyone. Thank you Carlos and your team for another memorable evening in great surroundings with good food and brilliant company.

    All members of staff- extremely friendly. Dishes - sooo tasty and full of flavour. We tried some of the Christmas specials. Highly recommend and can't wait to go back. Great atmosphere. This restaurant is amazing, the support they offer the local community is also fantastic and I'm proud to visit and support them..

    All in all it was OK, however the food came too soon after ordering, while we were still enjoying an aperitif. Therefore, when we were ready to eat the food was no longer hot.
