First impressions is that it is a really really nice venue, with a great atmosphere/ambiance.
The customer service really was outstanding, the staff I dealt with were all very pleasant and attentive.
Starter was unreal. 5/5.
Fish main we had was really good, the steak however did come out well done when I had requested a med-rare. A replacement was sent out pretty much immediately which was probably more med, but still nice and juicy. However £36 for a 6oz filet and sauce I would expect it to be 10/10 and it just didn't quite meet expectations.
Mains overall 3.5/5.
Would visit again to try something else.

Great service and excellent food. We didn’t have any cash on us though and were unable to tip our waitress as they don’t pass tips on if added by card. Such a shame as they deserve to be appreciated for their hard work. But a great meal nonetheless - the portion sizes are very generous.

Everything was really nice I wish I had picked the pepper corn sauce with my steak as the one I picked was horrible and the mushrooms weren't very warm but apart from that loved the experience and the staff were excellent
