    The reservation confirmation clearly stated that the reservation was blocked off for 2 hours. At the 1 hr 20 mark, we were very curtly informed that they needed the table back in 5 mins, and "that's how it is". More comically, I had already paid the bill and was just taking the last sip of my drink, and we were about to wrap up anyway. Clearly the staff needs more training in customer service. That one action pretty much ruined what would have been a nice birthday dinner.

    We had an excellent, if limited choice, fixed price lunch today. Delicious food, very good value, attentive service, stylish decor. The only criticism is the background so-called music which was merely a loud heavy beat with no tune that at times appeared to be stuck in a groove. Apart from that we would highly recommend the restaurant.

    As always this place is just very good. We had the set two course lunch for £17..... a fantastic smoked mackerel cream coating whole pieces of fish with toast and cornichons followed by one of the best schnitzels, very moist and lightly but crisply breaded, on the market and some fries on the side. The portions were more than generous... which is generally not the case with set lunches, all washed done with a carafe of rose and then coffee.... £70 for two. I call that great value for very top quality. £17 for a two course top restaurant quality meal? You can't get greasy fish and chips in an average pub for that these days!! The staff are always helpful and informative. Attentive but overly so and the young chap we had today was excellent. And when I scored the noise level "quiet" that was a complement. 2/3 of table taken (on a Tuesday lunch time) and a nice hum to the atmosphere. Will be back!
