    Another fantastic dinner with friends. An interesting but short menu (which is a good thing!) which changes regularly. Great staff, lovely atmosphere and delicious food - I had the prawn chilli toasts, the red mullet and then the rice pudding with marmalade icecream and all of it was divine. Thank you!

    Had only heard good things about this place and they are all true. Fantastic evening in an intimate, atmospheric environment. Not sure there is anything quite like this place in the city. Food was top notch and the service was on point. Can't wait to come back.
