Interesting nicely cooked food. Service still a little slow but it has improved.

This restaurant used to be brilliant, but the fact it was nearly empty on a Saturday night shows standards have dropped. We waited a LONG time for our starters (simple food that should have taken minutes to prepare, especially as there was no-one else in when we arrived!). Food was pleasant enough, but very average. Meat on the main was too tough to eat - to be fair they did offer to make another one, but as we had been there an hour and a half at this point, we decided to just finish and leave. One plus point, the waitress was very friendly. But we left very disappointed and don't plan to return.

Five of us Went for lunch. Food took a bit of time to arrive but was freshly cooked and tasty. Pudding was also great as was the coffee. A soft drink was included with the lunchtime specials. Very reasonable. Would come again if we were locals.

We really enjoyed the food . The chef catered to our special dietary needs really well. We each took a starter and a lunchtime special and two green teas. A real treat!

The food was delicious, but we had to wait for 2 hours for it!!! We had a glass of wine and some bread while waiting, but the wait was ridiculous. Surely somethings not right with the prep work. We were just told by the waitress the lamb and duck had to be cooked from scratch. A customer cant make an order and sit for 2 hours waiting for food though!!! As a business they will struggle if they carry on like that because theres too much competition. Unfortunately we wont go back.

Lovely little restaurant. Waitress attentive and polite. The only thing that let us down was the steak was a bit chewy but I had the duck which was delicious and our starters were really nice too

Despite our reservation being made through Zomato it had not been confirmed to the restaurant,,however, they managed to seat all 6 of us without delay. The food and drinks were excellent and although the menu is limited no one was unhappy about their choices. The staff were very pleasant and made us feel welcome.

This lovely restaurant is great value for money, serving good food at sensible prices. It's a haven in a location which from external appearances doesn't match it's quality.

Food is absolutely sublime. My girlfriend thoroughly enjoyed the steak stating it was probably the best she had and my sea bass was pristine. Will definitely return. Point knocked off for average cocktails.

Great food and great service. Small improvement suggestions; bigger and better quality wine glasses and better cutlery. Also lighting could be improved. All in all a lovely restaurant which is very underrated.

Nice starters and mains, the duck breast mains were cooked very nicely with the fat rendered and the meat still moist and tender. Service was excellent. Very reasonably priced and good value for money.

Prior to going I emailed the restaurant for advice about parking but got no reply. I think this information could be placed on their website. When we arrived we were welcomed warmly and throughout the evening the service was excellent. Food was delicious and we returned empty plates. I was surprised to be told there was no soda water when I asked for a Spritzer but we improvised with tonic. My companions were all delighted with the meal and the whole experience.

what a great place, lovely atmosphere, great service and fantastic food. We had the 2 courses for £17.00 and it was excellent value, very good quality ingredients presented in an attractive manner. Some interesting desserts too. This is a eatery working hard to serve quality food in a nice setting, good luck to them. We would highly recommend.

The welcome and service from the waitress was great. But unfortunately throughout our 3-course meal we could hear the chef repeatedly swearing from the kitchen, and also saying "Im fed up of this F****ng place" which resulted in an uncomfortable dining experience. My Wife ordered a Medium steak, and although the outer part was Medium the middle was rare. I suggested that she ask for it to be flash fried, but she replied that she did not want to upset the Chef further; which is not how one should feel when eating out!

Absolutely fabulous as usual- this is a great venue with lively staff and absolutely delicious food- yes it's a little more pricey than greased spoon fare but you can properly taste the difference and is well worth it imo
