    Excellent food, staff were really helpful. We had been to the theatre so we didn't want a huge meal but a well cooked one and a place to catch up. I was with my two daughters for our xmas treat. The menu has a good variety of prices and we all enjoyed the Moules for starter which was a special for the day. We chose a lower priced wine from chile but it went really well with our choices. Lovely atmosphere. I would really recommend.

    Lovely pre-Christmas meal in central Oxford. We booked early after spending the day shopping and felt welcome and unhurried, although I’m sure they had a busy service. I also liked the layout - tables weren’t cramped together despite it being a compact venue. My oysters were spectacularly good, and my black bream main was cooked perfectly. My party also ate kidneys, rabbits and steak and had desserts. My chocolate dessert was a little one-dimensional, and the bread and sides were quite ambitiously priced for the quantity provided. However, overall, we thought this was a very enjoyable meal cooked and presented with evident skill and care.

    What a lovely place, Cecilia was very welcoming even though we were a little early. Service was relaxed but prompt and our food was outstanding. Especially the oysters, snails, scallops and lobster. Great value wine, a quality Cotes du Rhone too. Fabulous.
