We had an amazing experience at Marrow & Co. The steak was cooked to absolute perfection and was full of flavour. Every entrée we tried had such a unique and incredible taste. On top of that, the service was outstanding. Our waitress was not only knowledgeable about the menu but also incredibly patient and attentive, making us feel so welcome. Overall, a fantastic dining experience, and we’ll definitely be back.

The food as always is spot on, the service is always very good, however last night they had a few walk ins, which impacted the service as I think they needed more staff to cope with that.

Nice ambience, set menu delicious and meals came out quickly, DJ was great - music was at a good volume so as to not drown conversations. Only took one star off as drink took a long time to arrive at table. Other than that, a great evening out.
