    The food was incredible. So much flavor and reasonably priced. The cod melted in my mouth and the lamb chops were beautifully cooked. Our waitress Sarah was really nice and attentive. She suggested some really nice sherry for us to try and we weren't disappointed. My girlfriend and I will definitely be coming back.

    We originally booked a table for the wine tasting, but due to the lack of information on the site we couldn't find the part that said the wine tasting started at 7 30pm and since we have never been we booked a table, we were not happy when we turned up at 4 30 that not only wa the wine tasting at 7 30pm but the fact that the website also messed up booking availability because they didn't even open until 5pm. I was devastated, but Bernadette who was working that day absolutely saved the day with her amazing service and attitude and if not for her we wouldn't of even have stayed or enjoyed ourselves as much. THANK YOU BERNADETTE <3
