    Had a delicious meal here. The boneless Coq was delicious. Loved that they were a little crispy. Chicken was cooked perfectly. Filet mignon is a favourite and didn’t disappoint. Cooked perfectly and the side of garlic and Camembert gratin which broccoli and green beans were perfect accompaniment. Was too full for dessert but the other all had mouse, crème brûlée and banoffee and everyone loved theirs. Pornatar Martinis were so good and a glass of Sauvignon blanc really nice too! Perfect way to kick off our Christmas festivities

    Thank you soo much for the great hospitality! The whole team were amazing - every single member of the team were extremely friendly and welcoming. Our time slot was for 10:00PM which was close to closing time - they never made us rush anything, they let us take our time too. Waiters gave good recommendations and they were always attentive to see if we needed anything throughout our time there. The food was 10/10 - we had the lamb shank and sea bass - the lamb shank was cooked to perfection and the sauce compliments it perfectly and the sea bass was flavoured brilliantly and tasted amazing too. Thank you so much everyone! Will definitely recommend and will visit again in the future. Thank you so much for making it a memorable experience!
