    Excellent food and service. A bit noisy but understandable since it was near Christmas and office dos were happening.

    We have eaten here over years and years, hardly anything has changed- the food is excellent in taste and quantity, the service staff are always polite and fun, the food is always provided promptly. We will always come here when in Brighton.

    Was a bit of a bad start, we had barely even sat down and we were being badgered to order drinks, 3 times in the space of 10mins. And after this I noticed very regular visual checks of how we were progressing with our starters, seemed like either they wanted to hurry is along or they are used to faster diners I'm not sure,maybe they usually have quicker turnover of tables. Once we had our main meal this vigilance calmed down and we could relax. The food itself was stunning, a touch on the pricy side but felt worth it, enjoyed every bit! Portions were generous.

    services poor, some waitresses a bit impolite to make you feel pressure to finish meal in a hurry Cuisine just average, it's not worth the money
