    Was friendly welcomed. My Starter of chilli chicken was tepid, my husbands prawns were lovely, but waiter offered a free drink for the warm chicken starter. The Ribeye steak was not available but offered the rump at the discounted price which was tasty. The service was excellent and I’ve booked to come back with my girl friends in a couple of weeks.

    The food, service and atmosphere were excellent. It was a bit pricier then a comparable restaurant but we'd definitely go back.
