    The food was not good at all. The portion so little for something so bad and expensive. Not worth it at all. We couldn’t wait to get out. The only good thing was the tea and the sweet girl serving us. The deserts tasted like microwaved brownies and not set milk with eggs. I never post reviews but I’ve never been so unhappy for spending that much on something so unappetising.

    Food was good. Ambiance was good. I would warn people to check the wine they serve you compared to the wine you order. I was given a 2023 bottle when I ordered a 2019. I queried this and was told that the 2023 bottle would cost the same as the 2019 bottle - exactly the same wine, different vintage.

    £350 for two people was too much. To also add a £2 cover charge for nothing just shows the greed of restaurants. Won’t be going back.

    We Although we had a reservation, they said they couldn't find the reservation and couldn't give us the table as it was full. I knew that I had seen several free intervals and made the reservation again from the phone, and when we arrived at the restaurant, we were astonished to find that they had several tables free.

    food was ok. Service was below average. Ordered a slice of chocolate cake for dessert and after 20 mins of waiting, it had not arrived yet. I asked the waiter to chase this with the kitchen but after another 15 mins still nothing. So I asked to cancel the cake and get the bill. 5 mins later they came out with a brownie and said it was on the house. The brownie was not great and overall just a bad way to end what would have been a good dinner. Overall not great.
