   Absolutely delicious food from Starter to Dessert. The only thing that I don’t like is the time limit… your booking is for 1 1/2 hrs only… so once you finish with dessert the waiter will remind you that they need the table back which did not sit well with us as we were having a great after dinner conversation and had to abruptly stop and leave.

   Despite booking was given a table forb2 beside a noisy group, in a walkway next to the toilets. “The enchanted grotto” or what? However after asking to be moved had a great table in a more spacious and quieter part. Why we weren’t out there first who knows? The food and service however made up for that issue as Borge were very good

   We experienced quite a long wait before anyone took our order or offered us water. When the waiter finally came to us, they seemed to be in a rush. Unfortunately, we weren’t informed that there was a cut-off time for food orders, so we were unable to enjoy any dessert. Our table was quite cramped, and it wasn’t until we asked that anyone came to clear the empty plates, which would have given us more room to eat. The most prompt service we received was when the bill was presented to us, even though we hadn’t requested it.

   Initially seated at a table right next to the entrance - a table which shouldn’t have been in use at all. We had booked so that was a very disappointing start. Food and service indifferent and not great value. 13.5 per cent service charge. Haven’t been for a few years and won’t be returning.

   Grossly overpriced for very average, small portioned food. The meals arrived almost immediately we ordered them which made me think they had been dished out ages before and left on a hot plate. Mine was lukewarm. The dessert sounded amazing on the menu, Donauwelle, but was very disappointing on its almost immediate arrival. Heavy, and not sponge like at all. In summary, the food was not freshly plated and the portions were small. The Brezel was the best item I had. The staff were very amenable though, the one plus point of the experience. I would not recommend.
