First time at this restaurant. The service was very good. All staff helpful and polite. Food was really good. The prawns cooked in garlic butter were so enjoyable. The dinner big room was laid out well with plenty of room to get about in. The seating was comfortable. The room was quite cold on the evening that we were there and this was possible my only disappointment. I would recommend this restaurant and will certainly go back again.

The booking experience was very good. All staff were extremely friendly and attentive without being intrusive. We were left in peace to talk even though we had gone over our allotted time. This was much appreciated. The food was served very quickly and was very tasty. As a dining experience it was most enjoyable. Thank you.
