Shown to our table by a very welcominmg member of staff. Drinks were served and the food didn't take that long to arrive either. All the plates on the table were left 'food-less' which means the food must have been good. Not too keen on the dessert menu - could be a better choice - so a coffe before leving to go to the theatre. This place is ideal if you are visiting The New Theatre in Cardiff - but make sure to book.
