1st experience OMG food was amazing. The yuzu chocolate fondant tart was something i have never experienced before. Its a must.The service was second to none, so attentive. There was a group of loud ladies sitting nearby. We didnt complain but the restaurant manager took it upon himself to knock off the drinks off our bill. We gave them a well deserved healthy tip for the staff to make up for it. Absolutley going back as often as we can. Good luck and support your locals.

Food and service excellent. Only gave 2 stars as one of our party given a biscuit containing gluten. Had stated in advance Gluten intolerance. Was quickly removed but not before a bite taken. A very unpleasant night for her followed.

The head chef (Richard) surprised me with a tasting menu... I found myself eating with relish food that I thought I did not like. Simple food cooked well, I was blown away by some of the textures and flavors… that was presented to me. Well, chef my taste buds thank you. The waiting staff were attentive, courteous and friendly. I will come again.
