Booked ahead as we were a party of 3. Welcomed by friendly staff.
Drinks and food ordered in good time. Slight mistake by waitress, wrong order for our table.
Two out of the three of us got our food within 3 minutes, one person had to wait another 8 mins as he was having the fish fish.
Meals were lovely and freshly cooked. Ordered a pudding too.
Apart from getting the order wrong, everything else was very good. Would return again.

We entered the restaurant and was greeted by the host with almost no discernable personality. I asked for a quietish table as my companion has a hearing challenges. He told me that wasn't possible. (The place was less than half full.) We were seated near a window. It is touted as having great views, but there was nothing special from my vantage point.
Our server did a great job and the food was excellent. I was really impressed with the cocktails.
Upon exiting, we made eye contact with the host, he said absolutely nothing to us.
