It was a wet & gloomy night, but stepping into the restaurant it was blissfully cosy & warm. A friendly greeting by the staff and all evening their service was impeccable, engaging & interactive. All of our meals were delicious and beautifully presented (even though, sadly, a couple of choices weren't available this night). Overall, it made our birthday celebration evening a completely wonderful memorable occasion. A massive thank you to all of the staff and we will certainly be back!
