We've enjoyed West End for a very long time. We chose it for a family celebration and had one of the best experiences to date. We will definitely keep it at the top of our list of favorites.

Firstly we were seated in the middle of the restaurant, so we felt like goldfish in a bowl. If we had been here before, we would have requested a table against one of the walls. We ordered a calamari starter to share - we got roasted cauliflower. The cauliflower was roasted, but it was salty, lukewarm warm and otherwise tasteless. My husband ordered the haddock - it was very dry - obviously overcooked. I ordered the grouper, which was slightly overcooked. Although the fish portions were quite large, the vegetable portions were quite sparce. For the overall experience, I think the restaurant was quite over-priced. I don’t think we will be returning.
