We had a very nice Christmas lunch. Service was very personable and efficient. Food was very good. Bubbly by the glass was ridiculously expensive…got a half bottle of the same stuff for the price of one glass. A really nice wine list that has some reasonable price points…

Great restaurant with a unique menu. A must appetizer is the whipped feta. Delicious and a nice presentation. The burger and caesar salad with shrimp were both good. As was the French onion lasagne. Leave room for dessert. The lemon and fennel is my all time favorite dessert. Unbelievable flavors! We also had the sticky toffee pudding. Very good too. The service was top notch. Corinne was very pleasant and knowledgeable about the menu. She was excellent. Attentive and helpful. We had an enjoyable dining experience.
