    Excellent service from our very friendly waitresses. The food was superb; we took so long over it that we had to move upstairs for dessert as another table was booked in but this was not an issue. Highly recommend.

    Thank you for your feedback i'm so glad you enjoyed your meals and Im sorry the table next to you were chatting a bit to loud for your liking but any restaurant worth its salt on a Saturday night will be busy and the two tables that were sat next to you were not overly noisy. I've also just observed your visit on the camera and can see no problem with you conversing all throughout your visit and that you did not bring any issue up with the team (if this is not the case then please accept my apologies). We are expanding the restaurant and will be opening an are that will be mainly for tables of two so hopefully on your return this might work better for you. Thank you for your visit and we look forward to seeing you soon. Kindest Regards, Darren

    Excellent food and service. I had the chicken supreme and the mushroom sauce was incredible. Two had the lamb and one a lamb tagine, they all said how good it was. Clean plates all around and the service was excellent.
