Excellent food today for a table of 3. Lovely choice of menu. Our party had the fish of the day which was exceptional followed by polenta cake. My 88 year old aunt loved the sole and crème brûlée. My son who absolutely adores eating out opted for 3 courses of fish cake then the beef which was melt in the mouth. To finish he tried the chocolate tart either sorbet. Would highly recommend, attentive service and good portion sizes. We will definitely be back.
