Our third trip to this new restaurant and delighted as always. Came to try the Christmas menu this time and food was perfect again. Excellent service from the young waitress from start to finish. Couldn’t fault a thing. We will be back for the Hogmanay tasting menu - can’t wait.

The whole experiences from start to finish was outstanding. We were greeted with such a warm welcome and nothing was to much, the initial drinks order was done very swiftly then we was given as much time as we needed to order. The Food!! well what can I say. from the presentation to the table was first class. And I can honestly say both me and my wife agreed that this was the best Sunday Roast that we have EVER tasted. I actually have no accurate words to describe it. The departure from the restaurant was equally as perfect as the whole time there and front of house and there serving staff I could not fault. It was such a breathe of fresh air to be in a restaurant of this class. Well done all Absolutely Perfect and could not fault one aspect of it all. Finally well done to the man in the background!!!!! The CHEF, and what a CHEF
