Visited on a recommendation from a friend and was not disappointed. Flavours were delicious and the service was excellent! Particularly enjoyed the fillet with red curry flavours, Neil's flourless chocolate cake, and definitley the twist on the Old Fashioned. Will visit again, highly recommended!

From the moment we entered "Neptune's Grotto" I knew we were in for a splendid evening. And we weren't disappointed. I am a big fan of a short Menu where you want to try everything on offer. And this is exactly what was displayed. The food was superb and the extensive Wine List was deletable. Heavily leaning on Italian Wines -and rightly so - there was something for every price range. The food was superb, the décor romantic and the whole experience made me sad we had to leave. But we will be returning.
