    A dual birthday dinner for two so we pushed the boat out. We both ate the slow cooked lamb shank which melted in the mouth and accompanying veg and gravy were perfect, all hot and very delicious. We shared a pudding of warm gooey chocolate brownie and amaretto ice cream which was gorgeous. Our server was polite, helpful and attentive and at our quiet corner table we were not bothered by noise or music. Highly recommended for a special meal and I will be coming again!

    We were given options as to where we could sit; this was much appreciated as there were 2 large parties on the top floor with us. The servers were very friendly and warm. My partner's steak medallions were cooked to perfection, as was the herb mash. He would have preferred a portobello mushroom over the closed cup mushrooms served. My salmon and new potatoes were well cooked. I wasn't too keen on the leek personally due to the lack of texture. Dessert (warm brownie cake and sticky toffee pudding) and the 'A' star martinis were amazing. There was a bit of a delay at the end of the night when we wanted to pay and leave but overall, a fantastic night. We would definitely return.

    Such a great restaurant with excellent quality food. However this time we ate on a Friday where they have a date night menu, 3 courses for £36. However my food did not total £36 on the main menu, so I was overcharged… Very naughty.
