    We had to leave our table unexpectedly because my fiend received a call to say his son was being taken to hospital following an accident. The manager waived the cost of the water and helped us exit immediately. It was very compassionate and kind. We shall return and cannot commend the staff enough.

    Love the ambience and the service was excellent!!! Food was a little let down, our mains were a little dry (we ordered Friday Roast) but dessert was yummy! Would I come back? Yes I would but cross fingers other mains are better! 😊

It’s wonderful to know you enjoyed the dessert, and we’d love the chance to welcome you back and make your next visit even more enjoyable. Fingers crossed for an even better experience next time! 😊

    The restaurant was aesthetically pleasing and the atmosphere a welcoming one. Mehdi the manager was very knowledgeable of the dishes and gave us his honest recommendations. Mehdi along with his staff members, Abi and Farad were very accommodating, friendly and made us feel relaxed. Farad made us some sweet and flavoursome mocktails too! Would highly recommend if you want an experience rather than just a place to eat.

    Had a great time for lunch at bar 1790. Food and drinks were amazing, coupled with fantastic service to match. The cellars are quite outstanding as well! Will be back as soon as possible!
