The second time we have eaten here, having only recently discovered Ami. The food is incredible, absolutely superb! The children’s menu is just as good (no chicken nuggets or fish fingers here). The staff are friendly and welcoming, attentive but discrete, and very accommodating. Great place for a romantic meal, dinner with friends, take the children or not….it really does tick every box.

Everybody was kind and overall it was enjoyable. However, even if not expensive, it was not worth the money for me. The ciabatta bread looked like cooked from frozen bread, the ros wine was not good, the portions were very big (couldn't finish my main course and, alas, no dessert), the cooking was decent but not close to fine dining.
