    The ambience and service is good and quick. The servers were helpful. Food and drinks were ok. The mocktails that we ordered were not too great. One of them had overpowering pineapple juice taste and the other ginger beer taste and lot of ice. Could not taste the other ingredients mentioned in the menu. The quantity of the appetisers is not much for the cost. The calamari was not crispy enough and chewy. Mains - ordered the spicy scallops curry, seafood pasta and lobster roll. The quantity of mains is good. Taste was ok, not extraordinary. For dessert ordered the sticky date pudding which was ok. Overall, it is alright and don’t think it is worth the price.

    A very enjoyable Christmas lunch. Seeing you have British in your name, you could offer a more British option too. How to improve for next year - turkey as an option, real Christmas pudding, crackers. Nevertheless, we enjoyed the fixed price menu.

    We are regulars and usually eat at the bar and watch sports. Bar tenders are great and food is reliably good.

    Wait staff exceptional! Don’t miss the deviled eggs. The short ribs very tasty, halibut was very good. The prime rib was mediocre. Great drink menu, extensive offering of liquor. Great location, very comfortable and welcoming.

    I ordered a burger and the waiter suggested medium but when it arrived it was raw. He never checked back in with us and we were pressed for time so I just ate around the end and left. And it was a $25 burger! My husbands lobster roll was dry and didn’t have a lot of flavor. All of the middle tables were empty on a Friday night so it wasn’t like they were busy, I was hoping for better food :-(

    Some food items OK, others a little better. Deviled eggs and Caesars salad OK, Halibut much better.. Service included two people. A little too much hovering ; serving male before female food and wine. Should not pick up any plates until all customers fininshed.

    We’ve been wanting to come here for ever and finally did! Sadly it wasn’t quite as good as we expected. The service was ok, not very friendly or attentive. The prime rib at $55 was not prepared as my friend asked - it was bloody when he asked for medium rare more towards the medium side. Don’t order the $20 calamari - it’s small and rubbery. The tikki masala chicken was very good, and the halibut was excellent
