    Really great food in a restaurant with a lovely ambiance in a good setting. White chocolate panacotta was divine.

    We had a lovely pre theatre meal here. The pre theatre menu was great and really reasonable. We have a fabulous bottle of white and a fantastic cocktail each. The staff were great, really friendly but have you your space. I'll be back.

    Service felt a little rushed. Food was ok but not in keeping with the prices. Pretty sure my burrata was mozzarella. Chicken main course came with rocket and no other side and I felt was overpriced for this reason. A lovely setting on the canal but unfortunately not of the same standard as its sister restaurants.

    It is a small enough menu in terms of choice but everything we got was fabulous. The pre theatre menu was great value. Soup, mussels and prawns were delicious. Featherblade, chicken and cod mains were all fab. The wine and cocktails were great. Service was great, attentive but not over the top. I loved this restaurant and will return again soon hopefully
