    We asked for a quietish table and were given one promptly without question. We thought this was a very good start and thereafter everything went very smoothly: helpful and friendly waitress, excellent service and all four of us were impressed with the delicious food.

    Delicious food, I made a good choice (helped by the waiting staff) of salmon salad. The other members of our party also enjoyed their food and wine. Our waitress was great, very attentive when needed. Well done Quod!

    Excellent staff and lovely food as always. Good selection on the menu. The Sunday roasts looked very good too. I found the noise levels rather high, but it was prime time at Sunday lunchtime, so can’t complain.

    The watiress who served us was exceptional: informative, engaged and engaging. Able to recommend wine with authority by explaining the reason for her recommendation, whilst also giving a taste of the alternative my wife had first selected. Similarly recommended food plates (polenta and mushroom starter, and anchovy sauce on tenderstem brocholli side). All recommendations were exellent. My wife's fish cake was not acceptable, being mainly breadcrumb or potato, with only a small pocket of fish, and therefore tasting bland rather than of fish. Waitress took the plate off the bill without quibble and before we requested any gesture. Our table was adjacent to the connecting door from the restaurant to the hotel reception. The door was used frequently and often left open which was drafty and on several occasions we closed the door ourselves. The door closer seemed not to be working. Overall however, a very pleasant meal. Remainder of the food was excellent and the ambiance was buzzy and warm - we benefitted from Christmas lights being up throughout the restaurant.
