    Legit one of the best meals that me and my family have ever had and I don’t say that lightly! A highlight was the tuna steak which was not only the largest tuna steak I had ever seen but also the tastiest. Cannot recommend this place enough.

    Food and service were excellent. Felt mightily ripped off when charged £5 for a bottle of water, especially when not advised there was a cost. Walked in, was shown to table and my wife was asked would you like water, she replied yes and then still or sparkling. No mention of cost or offer of tap water which would have suggested a cost for the water offered. But £5 for z bottld of water? Come on! Took the sheen off what was otherwise a superb night out.
