Very good food, run by some lovely people and views for days. Have been here at least a dozen times and is always exceptional.
Incredible food, service & atmosphere.
We took our Uncles out for a 3 course lunch as a thank you. Both of them are professional cooks, hailing from London. One of them has cooked for every big name chef you can think of. We all thought the food was amazing. Flavours were bold and tasty. Portions were generous. The staff was super friendly and prompt. I couldn't fault anything at all. A truly wonderful 3 course lunch!
Excellent service and great food.
Staff at the restaurant were very friendly and professional, nothing was too much trouble. Was good to see the owners thanking their staff for a good night's work at the end of the night, something a lot more managers and owners could learn from. Food was tasty and good portion sizes and fairly priced. Was our first time there, will definitely be going back on a regular basis.
