Three of us had a great meal last night at the Wild Goose Grill. Excellent food, imaginatively presented, attentive service, happy customers, friendly atmosphere, big wine list including some at perfectly reasonable prices. One of us is a vegetarian, and greatly enjoyed the meal, which is not always always the case in restaurants that cater mostly for misguided carnivores. All in all, the place is definitely worth a visit.

We arrived on time and were seated at the worst table, I was in the wine cellar practically. We were 40 min waiting for starters. No one apologized for that wait although one waiter noticed the long wait and brought more bread! My husbands steak was terrible, sinus and chewy . He found it hard to eat. A waitress sat at table beside us for the entire night folding napkins for the next day making us feel the place was closing and we were in the way. We were asked for a tip when paying which we obliviously declined and as we left not one staff member acknowledged us or said thank you/goodbye etc Not somewhere Id go back to Over all for an expensive meal it wasn't worth it.
