A lukewarm reception as I don’t think the gentleman who booked us in and took our menus uttered a single world to us when we arrived. He just collected the menus from their storage shelf and headed for the table. Not to worry though as (spoiler alert!) the food was excellent! It’s also fair to say he warmed up once we were seated and looked after us well. Overall I’d say this was a very enjoyable evening. We went for the Festive Set Menu which is terrific value! The portion sizes were generous too. My wife’s turkey was thick, juicy and flavourful and my Flat Iron Steak was perfect. A five star experience, just a pity about the blasé welcome.

My friend and I ate here to celebrate her 60th birthday. Everything was wonderful. She said the souffle was like eating "cheese air" -- just lovely. My seabass was fresh and perfectly prepared. The wine was yummy; the dessert decadently delicious. The service was great -- solicitous and friendly, but not intrusive.
