Wasn't a bad little restaurant.
The menu is rather limited and wasn't to my state however, that's just me. Those who I was with really liked the selection.
Couple of things to note:
Lack of parking, you must likely will need to park on a side street.
You can't book but there's a bar area where you can wait.
Main meals are what they say they are....no sides or food to complement. So, therefore make sure you order a side to go with your main.
Decent selection of cocktails and overall a pleasant place to dine. Read Less

Always had fantastic food and service here until today. My main meal was served cold, very disappointed, yes, the owner was very apologetic however when my meal returned my plate was extremely hot, plus my Yorkshire pudding had disappeared. Embarrassingly, I asked for this back (I'm not one for complaining). By the time I'd got my meal my partner was almost finished.
I then had dessert which was a chocolate fudge cake, this was lovely but it came with a dirty grain of rice on top. I couldn't even bring myself to mention this as I'd already had to raise two issues and felt very awkward.
I would of hoped for a drink at least to be discounted off the bill by way of apology for my cold meal but no adjustment had been made. Like I say, I am not one for complaining and am not out for a free ride. But when I come to a quality establishment I would hope for quality food and service. Very disappointing today, a real let down. The young man who served us was great and I'm only sorry we never left a tip for him however due to the other problem areas we did not leave any tip. It's safe to say we most likely will not be returning anytime soon. Sorry Read Less

Dined here on Saturday November 25th 2017 with my husband and our friends, the place has a nice atmosphere and friendly staff. I ordered the Moroccan spiced lamb from the specials board and was really disappointed. It was served on a naan bread, the lamb was very dry as if it had been reheated and lacked flavour and wasn't really hot. The naan bread was cold and quite firm as if no attempt had been made to warm it. In addition the wine per bottle was really expensive just short of £18. That said, the 3 other people in my party really liked their food, the rib eye steaks are tender, the burgers and meatloaf are very good and presentation of them very good too. The lamb would not deter me from visiting again because there seemed to be plenty of appealing dishes. Read Less
