Really nice intimate and romantic setting. Very friendly staff and beautiful fresh ingredients. Great cocktail and wine list. My only negative feedback was when we arrived for our table at 4.45pm the tables weren’t set and the staff were having a briefing in the restaurant near where we were eating. There was also a reception desk phone that kept going off which killed the vibes a little. Other than that loved it

Not sure what to make of this place. Thought the food was very good but I think it would be better with starter then main per person, not the whole sharing thing as i am not sure it js the right food for it. We were told to share where some dishes were too small but the cooking of the food was very good. Ambience of the restaurant is fine but we sat at the bar, you have to have stools with backs to them i feel as it was very uncomfortable. Needs a bit warmer decoration inside I would suggest.

The staff were lovely and accommodating. The service was excellent, the staff timed everything perfectly and we never felt rushed or interrupted. The food was fantastic, and we enjoyed looking at some art after our meal. We really enjoyed our time here!

Superb food, experience and value. We sat at the counter for a tasting menu and had several glasses of wine from the taps. Extremely good across every course - including the Guinness soda bread and butter!
